Hello death-by-chocolate. This may replace Double Chocolate Brownie Cookies in my recipe box as my go-to chocoholic cookie. These are essentially the same idea: chocolate cookies with chocolate chips in them. But these are made with butter, chocolate and more chocolate. The previous ones, while delicious, were packed with shortening. I think butter is just better.… Continue reading Chocolate Truffle Cookies

OREO Truffles
Easiest recipe ever. Seriously. You will be amazed at how simple these are. And how many compliments (and marriage proposals) you'll get from people eating these. They are amazing. If you have a food processor, these literally take about 3 minutes to throw together. Crushing the cookies by hand will up the prep time a… Continue reading OREO Truffles
Crispy Peanut Butter Balls
I know I've posted this recipe before, but it's just so stinkin good. And easy. And gluten free! I'm always looking for things I can feed to my Celiac sister and her kiddos. Three ingredients? Can't beat that! I melt a tablespoon of peanut butter in a baggie for about 10 seconds and snip the… Continue reading Crispy Peanut Butter Balls
Oh Fudge
I love fudge. I absolutely love it. This recipe is straight off the back of the marshmallow fluff can. I've been making it for years. I do one small thing differently. In addition to the normal semi-sweet chocolate in the recipe, I add about 2 ounces of milk chocolate chips. Perfect chocolatey goodness. I am… Continue reading Oh Fudge
Turtles
Turtles (so named because of their cute turtle shape) are delicious. You can buy a box of them for about $20. Or, you can make them yourself for WAY less without much effort at all. Today I used up the remainder of a bag of caramels, and only had pecan pieces (which I just made… Continue reading Turtles
Chocolate Rum Balls
As a child I would always help my mom with rolling her chocolate nut balls in powdered sugar. We'd use a paper bag and shake a few balls at a time until the dark brown chocolate just peeked thru the sweet white sugar. Once I lived on my own, I made them just like mom… Continue reading Chocolate Rum Balls
Double Chocolate Orange Truffles
When I was working my first job at a local Hallmark store, my biggest temptation were the bags of White Chocolate Orange Truffles at the front of the store. They were made by Seattle Chocolates, and they were fantastic. Creamy white chocolate with a hint of orange flavoring. Mmmmmm. I'm making little treats for a… Continue reading Double Chocolate Orange Truffles
“Jessicas” – Meringue Mushrooms
Ok, I know - the title of this post made you go "WHAT?!". I'll totally admit that I never would have tried this recipe on a title only description. A unique set of circumstances led me to make these - and I'm really glad I did. Today I made some banana cream pies and as… Continue reading “Jessicas” – Meringue Mushrooms
Decadent Chocolate Truffles
Chocolate truffles are a total indulgence. Rich, smooth and luscious. These truffles take some time, but are totally worth it. Especially since one batch makes dozens and dozens of truffles that you can customize however you like. My kids helped me with these. And by "helped", I mean that they hovered around the bowl until… Continue reading Decadent Chocolate Truffles
“Patrick” – Flourless Double Chocolate Truffle
Ah, Patrick. I've been so excited to make this dessert, I cannot even tell you. First, about Patrick the person. He is our ever-present sound tech at church. He LOVES chocolate. Which is why this is a chocolate dessert, but it's more than that. This truffle has no flour or cocoa mixed in with the… Continue reading “Patrick” – Flourless Double Chocolate Truffle
