Cake Batter Buddies
http://taste-tester-investor.blogspot.com/2012/07/our-first-ever-recipe-swap.html - University Village recipe swap that I didn't attend.

These are so yummy!  In the following ways I liked them better than Muddy Buddies: easier to make, not as messy or not as sweet
5 cups rice chex cereal
10 oz (5 squares) vanilla flavored almond bark
1 tsp vegetable shortening
1 1/2 cups cake mix (any kind will do) - next time I would do only 1 cup
1/2 cup powdered sugar - next time I would do 1/4 cup

Melt almond bark according to package directions, adding vegetable shortening to thin. Pour the cereal into a large bowl and drizzle the melted almond bark over the cereal. Mix gently with a large spoon or spatula. Dump the cake mix and powdered sugar onto the cereal and mix gently with spoon until all the cereal is evenly coated.

HOT CHOCOLATE

My parents gave us a hot cocoa machine for Christmas.  It has been fun having hot chocolate nice and warm all day long and trying new recipes.  Something I want to try mixed into hot chocolate is homeade Dulce de Leche from Best Bites cookbook pg. 135 (autumn).

HOT COCOA MACHINE: 60 oz of hot chocolate add 32 T or 2 cups mix

UPDATE: My old machine broke :-(  I was so sad.  Scott surprised me Valentine's Day 2017 with a new one.  This was one of the recipes included in the booklet:

HERSHEY'S "PERFECTLY CHOCOLATE"

1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
dash salt
1/3 cup hot water
4 cups milk
3/4 tsp vanilla

variations:
SPICED: 1/8 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 tsp nutmeg
MINT: 1/2 tsp mint extract
COCOA AU LAIT: spoon 2 T softened vanilla ice cream on top of each cocoa serving
CANADIAN: 1/2 tsp maple extract

CHRISTMAS 2012
I halved this recipe because it makes TONS!  You mix 1/2 cup of the mix to 1 cup of water.  You need to put lots of the mix because a lot of it is powdered sugar.

25 oz. powdered milk
32 oz. Nesquick
16 oz. creamer (would be fun to try vanilla, caramel etc.)
1# powdered sugar
Mix all together in a BIG bowl.

another one - used Christmas 2016 (like top one better, but maybe add white chocolate chips?)


INGREDIENTS
  • 3 cups nonfat dry milk powder
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1½ cups cocoa powder, dutch-process or natural
  • 1½ cups white chocolate chips or finely chopped white chocolate
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
DIRECTIONS
  1. Whisk together all ingredients in a large bowl. Working in two (or more) batches, depending on the size of your food processor, pulse the ingredients in a food processor until the chocolate is finely ground. Store the dry mix in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
  2. To make hot cocoa, put 1/3 cup of the cocoa mix in a mug and stir in 1 cup of hot milk. Top with whipped cream or miniature marshmallows, if desired.

CREAMY CROCK POT HOT COOCA
The Bradford's who we went to the yurts with (December 2013) said this was the best ever!  Lisa liked it too.  We loved this hot chocolate - yum!

Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups whipping cream
  • 1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 6 cups milk (we thought it might be good to use chocolate milk or 1/2 chocolate milk - might taste more like Dutch Bros.)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups of chocolate chips (milk chocolate OR semi-sweet depending on how sweet you like it. I have a heck of a sweet tooth, and I love the milk chocolate, but others prefer the semi-sweet)
Instructions
Stir together the whipping cream, milk, vanilla, and chocolate chips in a crockpot.

Cover and cook on low for 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until mixture is hot and chocolate chips are melted. Stir again before serving. Garnish as desired.

NUTELLA MIX
This is such a treat.  Yummy!

1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 can evaporated milk
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (dark would be good too)
1 T Nutella
8 cups water
mini marshmallows for on top

Heat chocolate chips, Nutella and condensed milk in pot until melted.  Add milk & water.  
Special Note: For the hot cocoa machine you can only add 64 oz of liquid.  So either 1/2 the recipe or just pour it to the line and then keep on adding once some is gone or put in fridge for later.

Also liked the Mexican Hot Cocoa in instruction manual and my kids loved the Creamy Caramel Apple Cider.

MEXICAN HOT CHOCOLATE
I love this!  Recipe is in cocoa machine booklet.
6 cups milk
1 T vanilla
1/4 cup cocoa powder (can use 3/4 cup chocolate syrup instead)
1/2 cup sugar 
1 T ground cinnamon


PUMPKIN HOT CHOCOLATE
This is filling and perfect on a chilly fall day.  Thought it was best with whipped topping.
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 ounces white chocolate, roughly chopped
Instructions
Heat the milk, pumpkin, and spices in a saucepan over medium heat; stirring frequently. Once it begins to simmer, remove from heat.
Add the vanilla and chocolate; stir until chocolate is melted.
Pour into mugs and top with whipped cream. Garnish with pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon, if desired.

MELT IN YOUR MOUTH BUTTERMILK COOKIES

MELT IN YOUR MOUTH BUTTERMILK CHOCOLATE COOKIES
http://bigflavors.blogspot.com/2010/08/melt-in-your-mouth-buttermilk-chocolate.html
These are very good!  I think they would be good with 1/2 peanut butter or vanilla chips too.  Or chocolate chunks.  Yum! Yum!

The 2nd batch I put the dough in the fridge while the other were cooking.  They turned out softer (saw where someone put on facebook if you put dough in fridge first they would turn out softer).

2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup cocoa powder
2 cups sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2/3 cup buttermilk
2 cups chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda and salt.
Melt the butter in a small, microwave safe bowl.
In a large bowl, combine the melted butter (still warm) with cocoa powder and whisk until very smooth. Whisk in sugar, vanilla extract and buttermilk. Gradually stir in the flour mixture until no streaks of flour remain. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Drop dough in 1-inch balls into prepared baking sheet, leaving about two inches between cookies to allow for spread.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until cookies are set around the edges.
Cool for 2-3 minutes on a baking sheet, then transfer to a wire rack with a spatula to cool completely.

Makes about 4 dozen cookies

BISCOTTI

This recipe was in the Martha Stewart Food magazine. There were other versions to try as well. See below for almond biscotti. I liked it better than the chocolate. But I have got to stop making it - I can't stay out of it :-) Made it for VT people on Valentine's Day. Took with hot chocolate packets and said - You warm our hearts. Took me about 2 hours to make two batches.

Next time I make this I want to dip some of it in almond bark or white/vanilla chocolate.

MEXICAN CHOCOLATE BISCOTTI
So good in either hot chocolate, milk or eat by itself.

1 1/2 cup flour
3/4 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
pinch of cayenne pepper (didn't add)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp fine salt (didn't add)
---
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 T pure vanilla extract
---
1/2 cup roughly chopped bittersweet chocolate

Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl (I used the Bosch) combine flour, unsweetened cocoa, cayenne pepper (didn't add) and cinnamon, sugar, baking powder and salt (didn't add). Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined. Add bittersweet chocolate.

Divide dough in half and transfer to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. The dough can be sticky so coat hands with cooking spray and flour. Make logs as uniform as possible for even baking. Form each half into a 2 1/2" wide 3/4" tall log. Bake until dough is firm but gives slightly when pressed, 20-25 min, rotating sheet halfway through. Let cool on wire rack, 20 minutes.

(last time I made it - I didn't divide the dough in half, but made one big log. I liked it better)

With a serrated knife, cut logs into 1/4" slices on the diagonal and arrange (I did mine about 1/2"-1"). Arrange cut side down on two parchment lined rimmed baking sheets. Bake until biscotti are crisp and golden, about 15 min, rotating sheets and flipping biscotti halfway through. Let cool on sheets on wire racks. (store in airtight container up to 2 days or freeze up to 3 months)

ALMOND BISCOTTI
2 1/2 cups flour (spooned and leveled)
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp fine salt (didn't add)
---
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 T vanilla
---
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted (spayed cookie sheet with Pam and cooked at 350 for about 5-10 min - can burn really easily - WATCH CLOSELY)

mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined. Add almonds and beat until combined.

same is the rest as above


Made this for Christmas morning 2012.  It was good, but still like Martha Stewart recipes better.  Did like it dipped in chocolate.

SNACK MIXES 2

HARVEST BLESSING MIX
Jackson brought this home from school (1st grade - Mrs. Edwards -Lincoln Elem. Rexburg, ID). He just loved it.
Each ingredient in this snack mix symbolizes something associated with the Harvest Season (Thanksgiving).
Bugles - represents a cornucopia, a horn of plenty
Pretzels - represents arms folded in thanks and prayer
Candy Corn/Corn Nuts - during the first Winter, the pilgrims were each allotted only 5 kernels of corn per day because food was so scarce
Dried/Candy Fruits - Thanksgiving is the celebration of the harvest
Peanuts/Sunflower Seeds - seeds represent the potential of a bountiful harvest for the next season if they are planted and well tended

PRETZEL CEREAL CRUNCH

Was addicting! Made with chocolate chips (melted)

Sweet & Salty Crunch Munch
(submitted by J. Lawrence)

4 cups rice Chex cereal
2 cups popped popcorn
1 cup cheddar Goldfish crackers
1 cup pretzel Goldfish crackers
1 cup lightly crushed plain bagel chips
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon cinnamon

Heat oven to 250 degrees. Stir together Chex, popcorn, both kinds of Goldfish and the bagel chips. Whisk together butter, syrup, soy sauce, and cinnamon. Drizzle over Chex mixture; stir well. Spread mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake at 250 degrees for 40 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, or until golden. Cool completely.

EASTER TRAIL MIX
This is from Nancycreative.  This makes me think of Christmas Crunch that Lisa makes.  She uses $1 store candy (or anything - bulk is a good place) and mix with honey nut cheerios. 
Something that’s hard for me to resist when I see the long aisle of Easter candy at the store are those malted milk Robin Eggs–malt balls covered with a candy coating. I buy them every year and eat way too many of them! This year, I told myself I would not buy them unless I used them in a recipe. And since I’ve been short on time lately, it needed to be something pretty simple. So I came up with an Easter Trail Mix–a blend of chocolatey sweets mixed in with some healthy ingredients. The mini robin eggs and pastel M&M’s give the mix plenty of chocolatey taste and spring color, and the other goodies include raisins, sunflower kernels, coconut flakes, peanuts, and mini pretzel twists. This recipe makes a large bowl of trail mix, so there’s plenty for everyone to munch on!
EASTER TRAIL MIX by NancyC
Makes about 13 cups
  • 1 (13.7 oz.) bag Mini Robins Eggs (almost 3 cups)
  • 1 (11.4 oz) bag milk chocolate easter M&M’s (about 1 2/3 cup)
  • 1 cup raisins (you can use golden or dark raisins)
  • 2/3 cup roasted and salted sunflower kernels
  • 1 cup sweetened dried coconut flakes
  • 1 (16 oz.) container cocktail peanuts or dry roasted peanuts
  • 3 cups mini pretzel twists (you can also use mini pretzel sticks or mini pretzel snaps)
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl, stirring with a large spoon. Eat right away or store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Makes a great food gift, too, packaged in treat bags!

CONFETTI CRISPS

Confetti Crisps
We made these for New Year's Eve 2011. So yummy! Easy to eat :-)
http://fabulesslyfrugal.com/2011/12/confetti-crisps.html


40 square (about 2×2?) saltine crackers
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup butter (not margarine!)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup (or more) semi-sweet chocolate morsels
1 cup mini-twist or stick pretzels, broken into small pieces
1/3 cup chopped peanuts
1/2 cup Mini M&M’s (my friend used regular sized)
1/3 cup raisins (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Arrange crackers side by side in single layer on large bar pan or jelly roll pan (used cookie sheet - didn't put crackers all the way to the edge) (make sure you use parchment paper, tin-foil or non-stick spray).

Combine brown sugar, butter and vanilla in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally with a whisk, until mixture comes to a full boil across the surface. Boil, stirring constantly 4 minutes.

Immediately pour sugar mixture over crackers and spread evenly with a spreader or rubber spatula. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until bubbly and lightly browned. Remove pan from oven to cooling rack.

Immediately sprinkle baked crackers with chocolate morsels. Let stand 3 minutes, allowing morsels to soften, then spread evenly over surface. Sprinkle with pretzels, peanuts and mini M&M’s. Lightly press toppings into melted chocolate using back of a spatula. Let stand at room temperature to cool completely. Refrigerate 20 minutes to firm chocolate. Cut into squares or just break up.

Store in tightly covered container in a cool place at room temperature so they will stay crisp.
