My MIL's recipe. Seriously, the best brownies I've ever had and I'm not allowed to bring anything else to gatherings now! LOL I use disposable 13 x 9 cake pans. These also freeze really well.

 

Memaw’s Killer Brownies

 

1 package chocolate cake mix-- just the mix

 

2/3 cup evaporated milk (1 small can)

 

3/4 cup melted butter

 

1 cup chopped nuts

 

1-1½ cups chocolate chips

 

14 oz. Milky Ways, regular or dark (I use the fun size bags)

 

Preheat oven to 350° .

 

Mix together cake mix, 1/3 cup milk, and butter. Stir in chopped nuts. Pat 1/2 of the batter in a 13x9 inch ungreased pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and cool slightly.

 

Melt, in microwave, the Milky Ways with 1/3 cup milk. Stir until smooth. Pour the Milky Way mixture over the cooked brownie. Sprinkle chocolate chips over the Milky Ways. Drop the remaining batter into the pan, covering the bottom layer. Bake for 21-23 minutes. Cool (I stick them in the fridge or freezer for a bit) and cut into squares

Better-Than-The-Real-Thing Chocolate Chip Cookies

 

 

These chocolate chip cookies made with Splenda taste so good no one would even suspect that they are not "fully leaded" with sugar. Who says you can't have your cookie and eat it too? Chocolate lovers, this cookie is for you!

My Dad has diabetes and ever since I made the first batch of these cookies, it's all we ever

bake!

 

 

Ingredients

 

2 1/4 cups unbleached flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup Butter Flavor Crisco shortening

1/4 cup Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking

1/2 cup Splenda Brown Sugar Blend for Baking

1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 eggs

1 cup or 1 12 oz. package of semi-sweet or dark chocolate morsels

(chocolate lovers, you can always add more chocolate chips as desired!)

 

 

 

Directions

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

 

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. Set aside.

 

Mix shortening, Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking, Splenda Brown Sugar Blend, and vanilla at medium speed with an electric mixer till blended. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually add flour mixture, beating until blended. Stir in chocolate chips.

 

Refrigerate for 2 hours up to over night... colder cookie dough makes fluffier cookies.

 

Spoon rounded teaspoonfuls of cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets and press gently to lightly flatten dough.

 

Bake 10-11 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.

Note: If you like chewy cookies, you may want to bake them for less time (just make sure you watch them!) Of course, this all depends on your oven temperature!

 

This recipe makes 3 dozen medium size cookies - that's about 3 cookie sheets!

Oops. Well, sweet potato's are a dessert to me. Call me crazy, but they surely are sweet like it. :)

[Gporter34]

I LOVE the below recipe! I make a Butterfinger Cake at least 3-4 times a year to bring to potlucks... The original recipe called for Heath bars instead, but I'm not big on toffee so I changed it! lol The differences in the one below and the one I make: I use yellow cake mix (chocolate can be TOO rich for some), generic caramel topping, let the cake cool 10-15 minutes (so all the liquid doesn't end up in the bottom), and I usually use just 1/2 can sweetened condensed milk so I have enough left to make a 2nd cake! Oh, and for the topping, I sprinkle 1/2 the Butterfinger crumble, then spread cool whip, then sprinkle rest of the Butterfinger on top.

 

Never tried it with pecans, may have to next time... thanks for posting this!!

 

No problem, lol. I changed it from the original, too.

[Guest mldepalma]

Great idea for a contest. I'm gonna have to print this whole thread! Thanks!!

 

Apple Dip

 

You could use other fruit or crackers or cookies to dip this with, but I think apples taste best -

 

8oz cream cheese (I use low fat and it comes out great)

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla

cinnamon to taste (some like more and others like less, so just use what you like)

tiny pinch of nutmeg (to taste)

1/4 cup crushed peanuts (cocktail peanuts work well...)

 

Let cream cheese soften a bit and then mix it all together. You can add half & half or milk if it is too thick. I usually add about 1-2 tsp of milk or so and then use a mixer to beat the cream cheese and spices before adding the nuts. It'll work for Thanksgiving too. :)

Blueberry Banana Bread

 

Several quick-bread recipes, then added banana chips. This version is excellent spread with cream cheese. Prep and cook time: about 1 1/4 hours, plus 45 minutes to cool.

Yield Makes 1 loaf; 10 servings

Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh blueberries, rinsed and drained, or frozen blueberries

• 2 cups plus one tablespoon all-purpose flour

• 3/4 cup granulated sugar

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (2 to 3)

• 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk

• 6 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled

• 1 large egg

• Oatmeal Streusel (recipe below)

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°.

2. In a small bowl, gently mix blueberries with 1 tablespoon of the flour (or you can use cornstarch).

3. In another bowl, blend remaining 2 cups flour, the sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

4. In a third, large bowl, whisk bananas, buttermilk, butter, and egg to blend. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture just until evenly moistened; the batter will be stiff. Gently stir in blueberry mixture.

5. Spread batter level in a buttered 5- by 9-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle with oatmeal streusel and press in lightly.

6. Bake bread in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 60 to 70 minutes.

7. Let bread cool in pan on a rack for 10 minutes, then run a knife around edges to loosen. Invert bread onto a plate, remove pan, and turn over onto rack to cool completely, about 45 minutes.

Oatmeal Streusel

Preparation

In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup each all-purpose flour, regular rolled oats, and chopped dried banana chips; 2 tablespoons each firmly packed brown sugar and butter, cut into chunks; and 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Mix with your fingers until fine crumbs form.

 

 

Teri's variation: instead of a loaf pan I use a fluted bundt baking stone, though any non stick will do. Put the toppinf in first, then carefully layer on the batter bake 45minutes or so,test for doneness. this is a very moist cake and after inverting, replace any topping remaining.

Stuffed Frech Bread (Breakfest)

 

 

1 loaf of French or Italian Bread

1 lb bulk sausage

½ sweet onion

4 eggs

1 cup milk

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (divided) * You can add more cheese if you like*

Salt & pepper to taste

½ tsp Garlic powder

**

 

Ground sausage and onion, drain.

Beat eggs, add milk, salt, pepper garlic powder. Mix well.

 

Cut the loaf of bread length wise about ¼ down from the down from the top. Hallow out the bottom part of the loaf. Be careful not to take out to much from the bottom. Take a cookie sheet the same length of the bread and place a couple sheets of foil down over it. Spray foil with non-stick spray. Place the bread in the center of the foil. Sprinkle ½ cup cheese in the bottom of the bread and then spread the sausage and onion mixture over the cheese. Make sure it is spread out evenly in the bread. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and top with the remaining cheese. Place the top of the bread back on and wrap it in the foil. Place in the refrigerator over night.

 

Next morning bake at 375 degrees for 35 – 40 minutes.

Remove from oven and open foil. Let sit for 10 minutes and then cut into slices.

 

**Mushrooms and greens peppers optional

Mine is EXTREMELY simple.

 

Fruit + Dip

-Any kind of fruit you like. Melons are REALLY good, as are apples, grapes, and strawberries.

2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese

(optional) teaspoon of Ginger

(optional) teaspoon of Cinnamon

(optional) crushed pineapple

Fluffy Pumpkin Pie (Favorite in our house!)

This delicious pumpkin pie can be served immediately, but it is easier to cut if placed in the refrigerator or freezer for a few hours before serving.

 

Ingredients

1 15oz can of Pumpkin, or about 1 c. fresh pumpkin

1 12oz container of Whipped Topping

1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice

1 tbsp Sugar

 

Directions

In a bowl, combine the Pumpkin, Pumpkin Pie Spice, and Sugar until well blended. If you plan on using fresh pumpkin, make sure that it is well drained, or else the pie will lose its consistency with all the liquid. Slowly fold in the Cool Whip in thirds, until completely incorporated. It should be more of a peach color than an orange, and light and fluffy in texture.

 

Gently fold mixture into the pie crust.Your pie crust can either be the traditional flour pie crust, or a graham cracker pie crust. The graham cracker crust is a good flavor combination with the pumpkin, and goes well with the lighter texture and flavor of the pie filling.

Sweet Potato Balls Recipe

 

2 C. mashed sweet potatoes

2/3 C. firmly packed brown sugar

1/8 t. grated nutmeg

1 t. grated orange peel

4 to 6 T. orange juice

8 large marshmallows

2 C. flaked coconut

 

Use fresh cooked or drained canned sweet potatoes. Add brown sugar, nutmeg, orange peel and juice to mashed potatoes. Mix well. Shape 1/2 cup mixture around a marshmallow; roll in coconut. Place potato balls in a buttered baking dish and bake at 350°F. for 20 minutes or until hot.

The balls may also be rolled in corn flakes rather than coconut if someone in the family doesn't care for coconut. This is a great do-ahead recipe. Just remember not to cook them too long or the marshmallow will begin to run out

[mgmckny]

i call it green and white salad...but its known as other names as well ( this can be made the day before)

 

1 small box of lemon jell-o

1 small box of lime jell-o

1 pkg of Cream Cheese (preferably Philadelphia)

1 small container of coolwhip

1 regular size can of crushed pineapple

a jar of marchino cherries (optional)

 

Directions:

 

in one bowl: Allow cream cheese and coolwhip to unfreeze, if in freezer; let sit in room temperature. Mix cream cheese and cool whip together until smooth consistency or desired consistency. either leave out until jell-o is ready or place back in refrigator.

 

in separate bowl: combine the lemon and lime jello powders together follow directions on box ( boil 1 cup water, add 1 cup of water per box). let cool in refrigator for about 2-3 hours...do not let firm, but not too watery either.

 

once jell-o is ready, blend in cream cheese and cool whip mixture on LOW to start out as until it thickens up some and increase blend speed. Blend until smooth constitency or desirable texture. Add in well-drained pineapple. Allow to cool and thicken in refrigator for about an hour or so...

 

Cut cherries in half and place on top for decoration

 

 

also other ideas is instead of lemon and lime jello, use Strawberry jello ( 2 boxes), strawberry cool whip ( when in season) ( regular works too), instead of pineapple use strawberries ( not fresh ones as jello may not set well) ans use strawberries instead of cherries.

 

also some people like to save some of the lime jello powder to sprinkle on top of the jello before cherries are place, but its basically just for presentation, same goes with strawberry!

 

some people even put nuts, and other different items in this...so u can be creative with it

 

let me know how this goes for anyone!!

The number one traditional "can't have a holiday without it" dessert in my family I have always known as Pig Eatin' Good Cake. My grandma said that was the name because it tastes so good you eat like a pig. A few years ago I saw a recipe in a cook book that was really similar and it was called Hawaiian Delite Cake.

 

Cake:

1 box butter or yellow cake mix (we like butter better)

1 can mandarine oranges (DO NOT DRAIN - dump the liquid and oranges into the cake mix)

1 envelope Dream Whip whipped topping mix

1/2 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

 

Combine all ingredients and beat for two full minutes. Spray sides and bottom of 10x13 cake pan and pour in batter. Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

 

While cake is baking prepare topping.

 

Topping:

12 oz. tub Cool Whip topping

1 large box instant vanilla pudding mix

1 can crushed pineapple, drained well

 

Combine all three ingredients and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate until cake is ready.

 

When cake is completely cooled, cover with topping mixture.

 

*When I make this for my husband's family I add 1 cup toasted pecans to the cake and 1 cup coconut to the topping. We don't do that for my side of the family because they don't all like coconut and pecans. I love it both ways!

[GinaInIL]
