lynn Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I love Pioneer Woman's chocolate cake. It is so good. http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2007/06/the_best_chocol/ My other favorite if you like cheese cake are the chocolate chip cookies with cheese cake in between. http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Chocolate-Chip-Cheesecake-Bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrg Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 We like layered ice cream desserts. Oreo crust, vanilla and chocolate ice cream, more crumbled oreos, chocolate syrup, sometimes crumbled brownies, whatever chocolate things you can think of. Gingersnap crust, vanilla ice cream and vanilla ice cream with pumpkin pie filling stirred in, more crumbled gingersnaps, caramel sauce, bits of candied ginger, and whatever gingery/pumpkiny things you can think of, etc. I like to invent these for different events, canned pie filling, pineapple, crusts made from all kinds of cookies, the possibilities are endless. Just make the crust, soften the ice cream and layer the chosen ingredients. My family has these for birthdays, in which case we add icing decoration. Scrumptious!

Mom-ninja. Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 http://www.cooksillustrated.com/recipes/detail.asp?docid=20859 Cooks illustrated triple chocolate mousse cake. Made this last year for Christmas! Hello Dollies? LOVE THESE!!!!! And they are so easy to make. http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/hello-dolly-bars-10000001687691/ There are some minor variations. Some recipes call for vanilla wafers and I've never used butterscotch chips. I can't find my recipe, but I think I just used twice as many chocolate chips. I must make these!

butterflymommy Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I make something I call bastardized chocolate croissants-- my kids call them chocolate rolls. :001_smile: You start with a basic yeasted dough-- 3 cup flour, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tbs sugar, 1 tbs melted butter, about 1 1/2 cup water-- let it rise about an hour. Divide it into two pieces and roll it out as thin as you can. Brush the dough with butter (about half to a third of a stick), sprinkle with chocolate chips, and roll it up into a log. Then cut into 1 inch sections and place flat side down on a cookie sheet. Do the same thing to the other half of the dough. Let rise another hour then bake at 375 for about 25 minutes.

Thanks :D You might need less water for the dough-- it depends on the humidity. So 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cup water. Dough should be slightly sticky but not globby.

angela in ohio Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Whenever I bring this dessert, people fight over the last bit and ask for the recipe. It started as a recipe from Allrecipes.com, but I've modified it over the years. I don't usually make packaged type desserts, but this is a treat... Brownie Trifle INGREDIENTS 1 (19.8 ounce) package (fudgy) brownie mix 1 (3.9 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix 1/2 cup water 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk 1 pint heavy whipping cream, whipped with 3T sugar 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed 4 Heath candy bars, crushed caramel topping DIRECTIONS Prepare brownie mix according to package directions and cool completely. Cut into 1 inch squares. In a large bowl, combine pudding mix, water and sweetened condensed milk. Mix until smooth, then fold in whipping cream and sugar mixture. In a trifle bowl or glass serving dish, place half of the brownies, caramel, half of the pudding mixture, Heath, and half of the 12 ounce container of whipped topping. Repeat layers. Drizzle caramel and crumbled Heath bar onto top layer for garnish. Refrigerate 8 hours before serving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snickelfritz Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Thanks for sharing! I have everything now to make this for our Christmas Eve dessert. :) Hubby is wondering if we could substitute Butterfingers for the Heath bar. What do you think, Angela? Not, Angela, obviously. I make a version of this and it is pretty fool proof. If flavors sound like they would go together, they probably will. I use cherry pie filling to go for more of a black forest taste. I've always thought mixing in some peanut butter into the pudding mixture and using reeses peanut butter cups would be good. My only question would be if the butter fingers and caramel would go well together? You could sub chocolate sauce for caramel sauce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momto2Cs Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I too love creme brulee. Also super delicious... flourless chocolate cake (scroll down to the 3rd comment for a Nutella/hazelnut variation that sounds incredible), and I love polenta poundcake with blackberry sauce (heat up the contents of a package of frozen blackberries, adding sugar to taste) and vanilla whipped cream.

Julie in CA Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I've been hesitating to chip in on this thread. If I get started, I may never stop. I don't really eat dessert, though I do often have to sample what I'm making. Most of the time, one bite is more than enough of any dessert, no matter how good it is. There are a few though, that I find tempting enough to eat an entire serving myself. I'll try to link you to recipes if I can: http://www.food.com/recipe/william-sonoma-warm-pear-cake-with-walnut-caramel-topping-179969 I double all of the caramel ingredients for this cake, and I usually add more fresh pears than called for. I will eat a piece of this every day until it's gone, though it freezes well for later use. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/mocha-chocolate-icebox-cake-recipe/index.html You can use any chocolate chip cookies you want for this recipe as long as they're crisp, though I like to use cookies that have small chocolate chips, not large. I don't make fresh chocolate chip cookies for this recipe because I don't think it works as well. This is definitely a recipe where taking the easy way out is the best choice. Serve with chocolate sauce. You can also freeze this until you need or want it, and if you slice it and then freeze it, you can pull out a piece to thaw whenever you have a craving. This is one of my favorite desserts ever, and it could not be easier: http://blog.sigsiv.com/2007/04/orange-panna-cotta.html I use vanilla extract rather than vanilla beans. Don't freeze this one. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/tylers-ultimate/lemon-pudding-cake-with-fresh-mixed-berries-recipe/index.html These are *incredible* and will freeze and thaw just fine. The cake is really really delicate and flavorful. I have other great recipes, but these are the easy ones that even I find tempting enough to overeat. Have fun! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckabell Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Has anyone mentioned oreo truffles yet? They are so, so, so good and easy. Here's the link. I usually don't have baking squares and so I just melt chocolate chips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kewb Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I have been thinking about this thread and I remembered a dessert a friend used to make that I absolutely loved. 1 box brownie mix 1 bag mini-marshmallows Graham crackers broken up (not crushed) Prepare brownies. Remove from oven. While still hot add a layer of marshmallows. Press graham crackers on top of marshmallows. Cover pan in tinfoil while you wait for marshmallows to become gooey. Serve.

Crazyderiver Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Better-Than-S_x-Cake or better than just about anything cake! The recipe is on the box of German Chocholate cake mix. It is a chilled cake with sweetened milk and Carmel filling topped with whipped cream and candy bar pieces. The best part is it could stay in fridge for a week or more just as good as the first bite. It never lasts that long around here. It really is better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butterflymommy Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 For those of you who like raw cookie dough, here is an egg-free, single serving recipe. 1/2 cup whole oats (dry) 2 tbs flour 2 tbs packed brown sugar 2 tbs semi sweet chocolate chips 1 tbs butter, softened or melted pinch of salt scant 1/4 cup apple juice Mix together well, you can let it sit for 10 minutes or so for the oats to soften.

rwjx2khsmj Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 For our winter solstice party I made three flavors of mini cupcakes that were a huge hit - chocolate cake with butter cream frosting, spice cake with cream cheese frosting and peppermint mocha cake with pepperment cream frosting. We also love chocolate stout cake and Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
