If I read over the last number of entries here, the first thought I have is: This needs to get more serious. So here we go.
When (if) I make it through all of these papers and into the Christmas break, I plan to learn how to cook or bake some wonderful new dishes.
So I am requesting for you to share with me your favourite recipes.
Here's one of mine:
Neiman Marcus Chocolate Chip Cookies

1/2 cup (1 stick) sweet butter
1 cup light brown sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso coffee powder (or instant coffee ground into fineness)
1-1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
2. Beat the butter and sugar together, and add the egg and vanilla.
3. Sift together the remaining dry ingredients, including the coffee powder. Stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and mix in chocolate chips.
4. Roll into balls. use your fingers to flatten onto a non-stick baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
Makes 2 dozen cookies.
Who even needs meals if these exist?

this is very easy, and yummy.
Whiskey fudge
6 T whiskey
1 1/4 cup icing/powdered sugar
1 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips (melt them and cool them down after measuring the amount)
1 cup dry nuts (chop them after measuring the amount)
prepare an 8×8 baking pan with some parchment paper for minimal cleanup.
whisk whiskey together with the sugar. throw in nuts. add chocolate, stir well.
pour in prepared baking pan, grab an extra piece of parchment paper and press down with a spatula on top of the extra parchment to level the fudge.
Leave room temperature.
the following sounds disgusting, but is delicious:
1. get butter.
2. get sugar.
3. melt them.
4. together.
5. put this hot, gooey death on graham crackers.
6. top with almond slices.
7. put in oven for some time.
8. eat.
9. die.
10. probably very soon after (due to heart complications as a result of eating melted butter/sugar combinations).
[directions 1-8 are suggested]
^ Don't try that at home.
Or anywhere, in fact.
