Chocolate Turtle Cookes

Originally from Cook's Country, found on My Kitchen Cafe

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1 large egg, separated, plus 1 egg white
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans, chopped fine
14 soft caramel candies
3 tablespoons heavy cream

Adjust oven rack to upper-middle and lower-middle positions and heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silpat liners. Combine flour, cocoa, and salt in bowl. With electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter and sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add egg yolk, milk, and vanilla and mix until incorporated. Reduce speed to low and add flour mixture until just combined. Refrigerate dough until firm, at least 1 hour.

Whisk egg white(s) in another bowl until frothy. Place pecans in another bowl. One at a time, roll dough into 1-inch balls, dip in egg whites, then roll in pecans. Place balls 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets. Using teaspoon measure, make indentation in center of each ball. Bake until set, 10 to12 minutes, switching and rotating sheets halfway through baking.

Meanwhile, microwave caramels and cream in bowl, stirring occasionally, until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Once cookies are removed from oven, gently press existing indentations with teaspoon measure. Fill each with 1/2 to 1 teaspoon caramel mixture. Cool 5 minutes, then transfer to wire rack and cool completely.

Ice Cream Brownie pie

Ingredients:

1 boxed low fat brownie mix
1 half gallon of 1/2 fat ice cream (I like Edy's or Dryers)
hot fudge or chocolate syrup
nuts (optional)

Directions:

1.Make brownies according to package.
2. Spray springform pan or just use a 9x13 or 8x8 dish. Add brownie batter and bake according to box direction. Let cool completely in pan. (I used a round cake pan. However, using a whole box of brownies filled the entire pan so I ended up cutting the top half off with a big serrated knife. Using only half the brownies was perfect. And I let it cool a little but not completely)
3. Let ice cream sit on counter for 10 minutes or so to soften. Spoon ice cream onto cooked brownie. (I LOVE hot fudge so before the ice cream I did a layer of fudge on top of the brownie and sprinkled some peanuts on top of that.)
4. Drizzle fudge or chocolate sauce on top. (and more nuts) Place in freezer for at least 4 hours.
5. Open springform pan and cut. Use thin spatula to lift servings.

No Bake Cheesecake

Found on Cooking Stuff

9" graham cracker crust

8 oz softened cream cheese
15oz can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla

Beat cream cheese until fluffy, mix in everything else. Fill the crust evenly, cover it with plastic wrap and chill for at least 3-4 hours. Serve with the topping of your choice. It will keep, covered in the fridge, for at least 4 days. I can't say for sure past that as I've never seen one last any longer.

Simplified Donut Holes!

"1 Package of biscuits (home style)

cut each biscuit into 4 then roll them into balls.
Put them in the deep fryer for about 5 minutes(make sure they are cooked all the way). Then mix together 1-2 cups sugar and about 1/4-1/2 cup cinnamon to your liking and a tiny bit of orange zest(I didnt have any this time but would reccomend it.) When the donut holes are done then all you need to do is mix them in the bag with the cinnamon and sugar and eat they are oh so good!! here are some pictures of it below."

"Better Than Robert Redford"

Doesn't this picture just say "delish" to your taste buds?! If it doesn't, I think there's something wrong with you. However, I am a sucker for a good, chocolatey, but not too much chocolate dessert. I have that blasted Bestor sweet tooth to thank for it... This will be the perfect thing for my one day a month "dessert day". Too bad it's 3 weeks away... :(
