Chocolate Fudge

This is the easiest fudge recipe ever. It's fool proof.



Ingredients:

12 oz. chocolate chips
1 cup butterscotch chips
14 oz. condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla



Directions:

Melt all ingredients in sauce pan on medium heat. Stir until melted.



Line a 9 x 9 pan with wax paper. Pour mixture onto the wax paper.



Cool in the refrigerator. Once the fudge has hardened, cut into squares. Store in the refrigerator.

Verdict:

Laura - Thumbs Up - This fudge is easy make and delicious to eat.

Randy
- Thumbs Up - Randy likes it.

Nathan
- Thumbs Up - Nathan had a piece and loved it. Then he ran circles around the living room. Too much sugar.

Leftovers: The leftovers don't last long because everyone eats them up. Keep them in the fridge so they don't melt.

Chocolate Crinkles



Ingredients:

1 1/3 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup low-fat sour cream
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup powdered sugar



Directions:

Beat brown sugar and oil in medium bowl with electric mixer. Mix in sour cream, egg and vanilla. Set aside.

Mix flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt and pepper in another medium bowl.

Add flour mixture to brown sugar mixture; mix well. Refrigerate dough, until firm, 3 to 4 hours. ( I wrapped my dough in plastic wrap before storing it in the refrigerator.)

Preheat oven to 350F. Place powdered sugar in shallow bowl. Set aside. Cut dough into 1-inch pieces; roll into balls. Roll balls in powdered sugar.



Bake on ungreased cookie sheets 10 to 12 minutes or until tops of cookies are firm to touch. Do not over bake. Cool on wire racks.

Makes 6 dozen cookies

Verdict:

Laura - Thumbs Up - These cookies look fancy and are easy to make. They taste delicious. They would be great to give as a gift this holiday season.

Randy - Thumbs Up - Randy liked them and keep popping them in his mouth.

Nathan - Thumbs Up - Nathan loves all cookies.

Samantha - Thumbs Up - Samantha liked these cookies. They were great.

Leftovers: The leftovers were great. I stored them in a plastic container. After a couple of days the powdered sugar started to get gummy. Not sure why this happened. They still tasted great but were a little messy to eat.
