Copycat Cracker Barrel 40th Anniversary Double Fudge Cola Cake

Sun, 17 Jan 2010 23:57:49 -0500

Cracker Barrel brought back their famous double fudge cola cake for their 40th anniversary and I was able to give their version a try. It was quite different from most of the usual copycat recipes out there, so perhaps their current version has been somewhat adapted over time. There are no nuts in this version. I did base my version on one I originally found on copycat.com, and I think I have it just about right. Expect a very moist, rich, deep dark chocolate sheet cake with a very fudgey thick frosting. -- posted by HeatherFeather

Chocolate-Wasabi Pudding

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 11:38:42 -0500

Instant chocolate pudding is deepened with additional cocoa powder, heated up with wasabi powder and brightened with lime zest. It will get hotter if left to stand, so if you can't eat it all, start with the lesser amount of wasabi. Be sure to use Dutch cocoa powder; natural isn't as deep in flavor.

These are so neat! My sister sent me pictures of these, and they are just darling! She is making them for Valentine's Day with her grandkids. Really cute thing to do with kids. You could probably make things for other holidays such as little eggs for an Easter cone,or candy corn for a Thanksgiving cone! They're really easy and would take no time at all.

Chocolate Covered Oreo Balls

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:05:28 -0500

Had these on Christmas Eve and thought Santa came early! Talk about simple - and sinful! These were extremely easy (and a lot of fun) to make. We used reduced fat ( ::gasp:: ) Oreos, and they were just as good. You could use low fat cream cheese as well. We also decided that covering the *entire* ball made them a bit too sweet (yes, I know - how can that be?!?). Next time, we will just dunk the bottoms in the chocolate. DH and I can't wait to try out different combinations: Peanut butter Oreos, mint Oreos, flavored chips, adding food coloring to white chocolate (for the holidays, game day, school colors, etc) - the creative possibilities are endless! -- posted by Dea Doo

Hershey's Chocolate Raspberry Dessert

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:45:27 -0500

I cut this recipe out of a magazine. I've never made it, but it looks and sounds amazing! There is a note on the recipe that says you can substitute 1/4 cup raspberry preserves and 1 teaspoon of water for the raspberry-flavored liqueur. It also gives the option of making a Double Raspberry Chocolate Dessert by substituting Hershey's Raspberry Chips for the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips. ***Prep time does not include several hours of chilling. And since I have never made this dessert, I had to guess at the prep and cook times. -- posted by momofM&M

Chocolate Lava Cake

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 13:08:07 -0500

Moelleux au Chocolat A French classic that literally melts in your mouth!!! This dessert is usually made in individual ramekins, but see the serving ideas below for other possibilities. Tips: You can definitely prepare your chocolate lave cake recipe ahead of time, and then bake 10 minutes before serving. I always do it this way! In terms of buttering the ramekins: butter the bottoms first, and then butter the sides, wiping from the bottom up to the top. It helps the chocolate to rise even more. In terms of baking time well, it depends on how runny you want it! I like it with a super-liquid-oozing center -- so do my guests! For this, you want the top to be cooked through, but the center to be liquid. You can check with a toothpick after 10 minutes of baking. If you don't like liquid-center chocolate desserts, just cook for a little longer, and you will have an incredibly moist chocolate cake. So, either way, you can't go wrong! Serving Ideas: You can, if you want, serve your chocolate lava cake recipe with a Crème Anglaise (English Cream) or a Coulis aux Framboises (Raspberry Sauce). Personally, I always serve it as is (no sauce). And honestly, everyone FALLS IN LOVE with this dessert!!! How could they not?!!! -- posted by Shesbittersweet

Thick and Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 12:07:50 -0500

These over-sized cookies are chewy and thick, like many of the chocolate chip cookies sold in gourmet shops and cookie stores. They rely on melted butter and an extra egg yolk to keep their texture soft. These cookies are best served warm from the oven but will retain their texture even when cooled. This may be the BEST chocolate chip cookie ever! -- posted by Chef #1337647

The World's Fastest Chocolate Sour Cream Cake!! Maybe the Best!

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 15:51:25 -0500

So so so good! So so so little work. Well, yeah, come on, you DO have to measure the ingredients. And a simple glaze would be good. But if you are really, I mean REALLY, pressed for time, place a paper doily on the cake, sift confectioner's sugar over it, lift carefully and there you have it. And this is sooo much better than a cake mix. I use an 8" square scalloped pan; that makes it look really special. Nawww, that's not cheating. It's just taking a little help where you can find it! Recipe was found somewhere on the internet April, 1998. That's how long I've been making it. -- posted by Jezski

I also eliminated the nuts (do to a nut allergy in our house) and I use 1% milk. Neither 1% or fat free milk interfere with the texture of these awesome cookies! -- posted by Chef #1466068

This was the cake we always had for birthdays when I was growing up. It has a rich chocolate whip cream frosting that has cracked up Heath Bars in it swirled on an Angel Food Cake. Don't skimp and use Cool Whip. This may be tons of calories, but after you try it, you will agree it is well worth it! Using a store bought Angel Food Cake makes this cake so quick and easy!

Chewy Chocolate Cookies

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 09:59:13 -0500

This is a Cook's Illustrated recipe that was originally published in January 2009. These are dark, almost fudgy cookies that are not crumbly at all. They develop a nice, crackly top and are not overly sweet, even with the granulated sugar coating. CI recommends using Callebaut Intense Dark L-60-40NV, but any high- quality dark, bittersweet, or semisweet chocolate will work. Light brown sugar can be substituted for the dark, as can light corn syrup for the dark, but with some sacrifice in flavor. A spring-loaded ice cream scoop (size #30) can be used to portion the dough. -- posted by Chilicat

Microwaveable Chocolate Ganache

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 11:35:06 -0500

No double boiler needed! Use it for icing or filling a cake, or to make truffles. Recipes vary slightly so I wanted to post my go-to ganache so I can find it every time. And you can easily double or triple this one. My basic ganache uses a 2:1 ratio of dark chocolate to heavy cream, 3:1 ratio of white chocolate to heavy cream, somewhere in between for milk chocolate. Those measurements don't translate perfectly in a measuring cup so the 2:1 ratio is below (most common) The better the chocolate the richer the ganache. I love mixing semi-sweet with bittersweet. At room temperature it's a perfect truffle consistency. It can be flavored with extracts or liquers. Hazelnut extract makes it so yummy! Grand Marnier would be good too, but is delicious plain. -- posted by Chef #1530933

I love soft, chewy ginger cookies baked with fresh ginger and honey. But I really love them when they contain the one thing I cannot seem to live without -- chocolate! May you enjoy these as much as I do... and good luck eating just one! By the way... I thought sprinkling a bit more sugar on them before snapping the photo might make them look especially appetizing... Unfortunate for my dear cookies, I was wrong! -- posted by Bazaar®

Black Forest Trifle

Delicious bing cherries, with devils food cake, mousse and whipped cream combine a dish to die for! I found it at The Food Channel while trying to find something similar here and couldn't find anything, after asking and receiving permission to repost it here, I'm excited to share it with everyone on RecipeZaar! The only difference I made to it was using mostly almond extract and a touch of vanilla in the whipped cream, and because I don't have alchohol on hand I used grape juice in place of the chambord. I also couldn't find any commercially prepared chocolate mousse, so used one small packet of chocolate jello pudding, and mixed some of it with whipped cream I had whipped up. -- posted by Houdini's Mom

I got this off the box of Kelloggs corn flakes- but it actually calls for cocoa krispies! LOL My kids wanted to make this, but oldest needed the box for school, so here it is, on zaar for safe keeping! Guessed on servings/yield because I have never made them before.... -- posted by Jennywren93

Bisquick Chocolate Chip Cookies- Just 6 Ingredients!

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 15:16:18 -0500

Classic comfort food. I remember making these in home ec back in the day. God I hated junior high and would never want to relive that torture: but those cookies were good! That good to make me want to remember it. And we didn't keep Bisquick in my house so it was an especially great delight for me. Makes about 16-24 cookies depending on how big you make them. They may not taste as fine as pure from scratch cookies, but they still taste good and are a time-tested kid pleaser. Can sub vegetable oil or shortening for the butter but the butter tastes better. And to make these a tad fancier, I suggest using 1/2 tsp vanilla and 1/2 tsp almond extract. -- posted by the80srule
