Big Chocolate Chip Orange Cookies
Dec 15, 2010
When you're feeling low, nothing works better than chocolate. The combo of graham crackers, chocolate and toasted marshmallows will whisk you back to the campfires of your youth and give you a carbohydrate boost, too.
Sandi Fiolka of Okotoks, Alta., just loves cookies – reading about them, planning to make them, shopping for ingredients, baking them and especially eating them!
This elegant updated version of grasshopper pie combines whipped chocolate ganache with everyone's favourite chocolate crumb cookie base. Crème de menthe works double duty to add both flavour and a hint of green to this dessert.
A trip to the local cookware shop reveals the newest in Bundt pans and their shapes. One with a nonstick finish is best.
Packaged in a festive tin or cellophane bag, this is a colourful, sweet gift. Check the ingredient list when buying white chocolate. It should include cocoa butter, sugar, dry milk solids and vanilla. Avoid less-expensive white chocolate, which is usually whiter than good-quality cream-colour white chocolate, because vegetable fats have replaced some or all of the cocoa butter.
A twist on the traditional chocolate bark, this crispy cookie, baked whole in a baking sheet and drizzled with chocolate, is a must-try. Wait until the cookie has cooled completely to easily break into pieces.
The extra chocolate layer on top makes these brownies a true treat.
Two ever-popular flavours - peanut butter and chocolate - combine in this sweet.
These sandwiched cake cookies actually have nothing to do with pie. In fact, they seem more closely related to cupcakes, and their frosting-like filling makes them simple and easy to eat!
