My favorite is lasagna,
and spaghetti is up there on my list also. So naturally I've learned how
to prepare both of these dishes. And then there's my sweet tooth... deserts!
My favorite is marshmallow brownies. I've earned a lot of fame with these
brownies. They're incredibly rich, and delicious. They're really simple
to make too (heck, I can even make them). I'd bet that I could make a lot
of money selling either the brownies, and/or the recipe. But being the
kind-hearted guy I am, here's the recipe:
Marshmallow Brownies
12 oz. butterscotch chips (1 pkg)
1 c. margarine (2 cubes)
1 1/2 c. br. sugar
4 eggs
2 t. vanilla
3 c. flour
1 1/2 t. baking soda
3/4 t. salt
18 oz. chocolate chips (1 1/2 pkg.s) Grace's preference: 12 oz. (1 pkg) or even less
4 c. marshmallows (1 pkg. miniature)
In saucepan melt butterscotch chips and margarine until each are just barely melted. Put in a large mixing bowl.
Using hand mixer, mix in br. sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Continue mixing while sprinkling in
flour, soda, and salt. Fold in marshmallows and choc. chips.
Spread into pre-buttered 8"x8" and 9"x11" pans, and
bake at 350 until toothpick test comes out clean; about 50+ minutes . Cool for 10 min.
Great warm with vanilla ice cream.
Higher altitude: reduce baking soda to 1 teaspoon, and raise baking temperature to 375.
Homemade Reese's Peanut Butter Squares
2 1/8 c. finely crushed graham crackers (1 pkg + 4 more crackers)
1 c. butter (2 cubes)
1 c. peanut butter
3 1/2 c. powdered sugar
12 oz. choc. chips
Mix graham crackers, butter, and peanut butter with electric hand mixer.
Slowly add powdered sugar. Press into buttered pans, about 3/4 of an inch thick.
Melt choc. chips, spread on top.
NOTE: makes quite a bit, you might want to half the recipe.
