Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownie Bombs





I made these last night but put my own spin on them I dip them in dark chocolate instead of the chocolate bark and I put walnuts in the brownies and instead of sprinkling the chips on top I rolled them in mini chocolate chips and pecans. those things are insane! I will be making them every time I go to a party now they were a hit! I’ve decided that next time before I roll them in the cons in chocolate chips I’m also gonna roll them in cracked sea salt…yummmmmm..

Peanut Butter-Chocolate Chip Pie




This would be lovely with a chocolate crust. You could easily substitute chocolate graham crackers or chocolate wafers.

JEP, this will keep about 3 days in the refrigerator. You can add a few more on to that if you freeze it. You can keep it frozen if you like. It’s a little softer if kept in the refrigerator, but it will still be fabulous coming out of the freezer.

Chocolate Craving Cake





I tried this recipe 2 days ago as my little bundle of joy is now 6 months old…
It’s a brilliant recipe…family enjoyed it A LOT (although at first i was nervous with this experiment on such an occasion )…and my granny (who is not a fan of chocolate) helped herself for second serve…
People from workplace wanted the recipe as well…
This cake was SUPER HIT…

Lemon Ricotta Parmesan Pasta with Spinach and Grilled Chicken





Made this last night and it was pretty good, but also a tad bland. I infused 3 cloves of chopped up garlic in the olive oil under low heat for about 20 minutes (I also used about 4 tablespoons of oil instead of just 2). I didn’t measure, but I’m sure I used about 2 teaspoons of lemon zest, and I ended up adding about 4 tablespoons lemon juice (instead of 2), and used about 1.5 cups of the parm cheese. I had to keep adding more of these ingredients because the lemon flavor just wasn’t coming through strong enough, and it always felt like it was missing something. It ended up being pretty tasty, but ricotta in itself is pretty bland, so adjustments are definitely needed in my opinion.

Lunch Lady Brownies





These are delicious. My butter probably wasn’t soft enough, but after 15 minutes it wasn’t quite warm enough to make the frosting smooth and melty like that. Or I went too heavy on the powdered sugar. Despite not being as pretty as yours, I will definitely make again. I’d like to try a dark cocoa powder too. These are lovely and milk chocolatey.

Cannoli Poke Cake



I made this cake today and it was a huge hit! I read the comments about the frosting being runny, so I whipped mine a bit with the whip attachment on the mixer and it really helped. I used probably about 1/2 cup more powdered sugar and beat it for about 2 minutes. It set right up in the refrigerator in just about a held hour. Also, I made a 2 later cake instead of using a square pan and the frosting was perfect for spreading on the cake, not runny at all. I was also conserved about the sweetness with the sweetened condensed milk, so I mixed it with an equal portion of milk and used that to pour on the cake. My only regret is that I didn’t use more (used about 2 cups for 2 layers). Otherwise, this recipe was delicious! I could have probably eaten all of the frosting by itself! Will definitely be making this again.

Homemade Turtles



I just made turtles last night and I tried two different methods with the pecans, the first was clumping the pecans into mounds as your recipe states.
The second method is to chop the nuts and cover a parchment lined cookie sheet with them. Pour the carmel on top of the nuts in circles the size you want your turtles to be and then cool (I cooled mine outside). When cool they easily come off the parchment & then can be topped or dipped. I found the second method to be faster & was able to make my turtles all the same size.

This is such a good idea for holiday gifts! I have to advise though, I made the recipe as written twice and both times it was a flop (using two different brands of caramel). The caramel is simply too loose, making it impossible to package them for gifts. It’s too loose to dip entirely even. I ended up melting my caramel in the microwave with no added liquid on the third try and that worked beautifully..
