No-Bake Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Corn Flake Bars (via MoNJ)

No-Bake Chocolate, Peanut Butter, Corn Flake Bars

SERVES 16

3 cups corn flakes, crushed
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar (I reduced to 1/4 cup)
1/2 cup white corn syrup
6 ounces chocolate chips

Heat peanut butter, sugar and corn syrup over low heat to melt. (be sure sugar is completely melted in, or it will be gritty) Stir in cereal.
Pat into a 8x8 lightly greased pan. (I line my pan with foil and then lightly spray it. When it is time to cut them, the foil lifts right out.)

Melt chocolate chips over low heat or in the microwave and spread over top. Cool until firm.

Tropical Orange and Coconut Balls (via Prepared Pantry...note from cheezz)

They are from The Prepared Pantry email booklet called "The No-Bake Cookie Guide".... toward the bottom of
this page.

Tropical Orange and Coconut Balls
(Texture of pecan sandies)

3-1/2 cups vanilla wafer cookie crumbs (a 12-oz. box will yield 4 cups - I measured)
2 cups powdered sugar
1-1/2 cups pecans, chopped (I used walnuts)
1/3 cup frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed, undiluted
1/2 cup butter, melted
1-1/2 cups sweetened flaked coconut

In mixing bowl of stand mixer, combine cookie crumbs, powdered sugar and chopped nuts. Mix in the oj and melted butter. Mix for 1-2 minutes (don't skip this step - it's crucial - otherwise the mix will be too dry and you'll never get it to form balls).
Shape into 1" balls and roll in the coconut. Refrigerate to firm.

Note: The recipe doesn't say, but I made 60 one-inch balls out of this

Lemon Ice Cream Surprise (via Meryl)

I wanted a stronger lemon taste, so I added much more lemonade (about 4 oz/1/2 cup more). This, of course, made the ice cream a lot thinner than it was supposed to be, but it still came out great.

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup margarine, melted (I used unsalted butter)
1/2 gallon vanilla ice cream, softened
1 (6.00 ounces) can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed

DIRECTIONS:

1. From the poster: "I use an 8" square Pyrex baking dish for this." (I used a metal 8x8 baking pan).
2. Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted margarine.
3. Spread evenly in the bottom of your dish.
4. Thoroughly mix together vanilla ice cream with lemonade concentrate.
5. Pour ice cream mixture onto prepared crust.
6. Freeze at least 4 hours before serving. (I recommend covering the pan and freezing overnight).

Ghirardelli Sinful Chocolate Truffles (via Meryl)

GHIRARDELLI SINFUL CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

I used a different method, but used the listed amounts for the chocolate and butter, and substituted half & half for the cream.

INGREDIENTS:

1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
2 bars (8 ounces total) bittersweet chocolate baking bars, broken in 1/4-inch pieces (recommended: Ghirardelli)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup Ghirardelli unsweetened cocoa

DIRECTIONS:

In a small saucepan, bring the cream to a simmer. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate and butter. In a medium sized skillet, bring 1/2 inch of water to a slow simmer. Set the saucepan in the skillet over low heat. Stir mixture just until chocolate has completely melted. Remove from heat. Pour the chocolate mixture into a shallow bowl. Cool, cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.

Pour the cocoa into a pie plate. Line an airtight container with waxed paper. Dip a melon baller or small spoon into a glass of warm water and quickly scrape across the surface of the chilled truffle mixture to form a rough 1-inch ball. Drop the ball into the cocoa. Repeat with the remaining truffle mixture. Gently shake the pie plate to coat truffles evenly. Transfer truffles to the prepared container, separating layers with additional waxed paper. Cover tightly and refrigerate up to 2 weeks, or freeze up to 3 months.

Yield: 30 truffles

Mexican Ice Cream Sundaes With Cinnamon Chocolate Sauce (via Meryl)

MEXICAN ICE CREAM SUNDAES WITH CINNAMON CHOCOLATE SAUCE

(I added 1 tsp vanilla extract to the chocolate sauce).

From the poster: "Dulce de leche ice cream is caramel-flavored. Vanilla would taste great here, too."

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
2/3 cup heavy cream
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, broken into pieces (I used Ghirardelli 60%)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt
1 1/2 pints dulce de leche ice cream or vanilla ice cream (I used vanilla ice cream and coffee/espresso ice cream).
1/4 cup redskin peanuts or unsalted peanuts (I used lightly salted peanuts, chopped)

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spread coconut on a rimmed baking sheet; toast, tossing occasionally, until brown and fragrant, about 10 minutes (I baked about 6 minutes). (store at room temperature up to 1 day).
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring cream to a boil; remove from heat.
Add chocolate, cinnamon and salt. (I heated everything over a double boiler).
Let stand 1-2 minutes.
Whisk until chocolate is melted and mixture is shiny (cover and refrigerate up to 2 days; before serving, reheat in double boiler or the microwave).
Remove ice cream from freezer 15 minutes before serving.

Raspberry Fool (via Meryl)

RASPBERRY FOOL

(Note: I do this a little differently - I whip the cream until soft peaks form, gradually add the sugar, then whip to stiff peaks. I omit the extra 1 1/2 cups raspberries for topping or layering, but it sounds like it would be nice. Also, it's always a good idea to check the sugar - depending on how tart the raspberries are, this may need a little more, to taste. I chill it at least 3 hours).
(I've used both fresh raspberries and frozen, unsweetened raspberries, thawed).

Ingredients:

3 cups raspberries, divided
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup sugar

Directions:

Puree 1 1/2 cups raspberries in a food processor until smooth; press through sieve and discard seeds.

In a medium bowl, whip heavy cream with sugar to soft peaks; gently fold in raspberry puree. Spoon into glasses, topping or layering with another 1 1/2 cups raspberries.
Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to overnight.

Melons with Ginger Syrup (via Meryl)

MELONS WITH GINGER SYRUP

"Melons, mint, and a fresh ginger syrup are delicious complements in this fruit salad. Cutting the melons in large cubes enhances their big, juicy flavor. For this salad, I like to use a combination of four melons, choosing from cantaloupe, honeydew, Santa Claus, Persian, casaba, or seedless watermelon."

INGREDIENTS:

1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup water
3-1/2-inch-long piece fresh ginger (1 inch wide), peeled and very thinly sliced
8 cups mixed 3/4-inch melon cubes (from 5 to 8 pounds melon)
Leaves from 5 sprigs mint (small leaves left whole; larger leaves sliced into thin strips)

DIRECTIONS:

Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Add the ginger and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 7 minutes to let the ginger infuse. Strain through a fine sieve, let cool, and refrigerate until completely chilled.

Just before serving, mix the melon cubes in a large serving bowl and pour on just enough of the ginger syrup to lightly coat the melons, about 1/4 cup. Toss with the mint leaves.

Serves four to six; yields 1/3 cup syrup.
