Chocolate and Honey Crispies

Allrecipes. Australia

These crispies are my favourite childhood recipe. My mum used to make me these for every birthday party and even at get togethers. They're great to make with kids and safe too. This recipe only contains 4 ingredients and requires no baking.

Ingredients

Serves: 8

200g milk chocolate (cooking chocolate is fine)

50g butter

4 tablespoons runny honey

75g cornflakes

Preparation method

Place 8 paper cake cases into a cupcake tin.

Break the chocolate into peices and place into a large bowl. Add in butter and honey. Put the bowl into a microwave and heat until the chocolate has melted.

Stir in the cornflakes until fully covered. Be careful not to break too many of the cornflakes.

Spoon into the cases and place into the fridge until set and crispy. (Preferably 1-2 hours)

Tip

This recipe makes 8. I recommend doubling the recipe if serving more people.

2. Cook remaining 2 cups milk in a heavy nonaluminum saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, 3 to 5 minutes or just until bubbles appear (do not boil); remove from heat.
3. *Sprinkle cook-and-serve pudding mix over batter. Slowly pour hot milk over pudding. Cover and cook on LOW 3 1/2 hours.

5. Turn off slow cooker. Sprinkle cake with pecans, marshmallows, and chocolate morsels. Let stand 15 minutes or until marshmallows are slightly melted.

I made this on Sunday. I found the recipe at Cooks.com and was amazed to find I had all the ingredients in the house. The pie was delicious. Very light--a great summer dessert.

LIGHT AS A FEATHER MELON PIE

1 lg. ripe cantaloupe
1/4 c. sugar
2 env. unflavored gelatin
1/2 c. freshly squeezed orange juice (mine was Tropicana Premium, no pulp)
1 pkg. (3 oz.) cream cheese, at room temp.
9 inch prepared graham cracker pie shell

Cut cantaloupe in half; remove seeds and rind. Cut melon into chunks. Puree in electric blender or food processor. (There should be 3 cups of puree.)

In saucepan combine sugar and gelatin. Stir in orange juice. Let stand 1 minute. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar and gelatin dissolve. Stir in melon puree.

In container or electric blender combine cream cheese and 1/2 cup melon mixture. Cover. Blend until smooth. Stir back into melon mixture in saucepan. Pour into prepared pie shell. Chill until firm. Makes 6 servings.

This was what I was going to make the other night, but found out my puff pastry was shells instead of sheets. Guess what's on my grocery list? SALMON IN PUFF PASTRY (Parade Magazine) 12 ounces pastry puff sheets, thawed if frozen 2 (6 to 7 ounce) salmon fillets 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened salt (to taste) freshly ground black pepper (to taste) 1 egg, lightly beaten Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a rolling pin, roll the pastry into four pieces, each about 5 by 8 inches. Transfer two pieces to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Remove the skin from the salmon and place a fillet in the center of each of those pieces. In a small bowl, combine the parsley, basil and butter. Stir until the herbs are thoroughly mixed in. Season with salt and pepper. Spread the butter mixture on top of the salmon. Dip a pastry brush into the beaten egg and let the excess run off. Brush the edges of the pastry around the salmon with the egg. Cover each piece with the remaining puff pastry. Pinch the pastry together firmly to seal, then lightly press the tines of a dinner fork along the edges for a decorative effect. Brush the top of the pastry with the remaining egg. With a sharp knife, cut two small slits into the top of each pastry so the steam can escape during baking. Bake for 20 minutes or until the pastry has risen and is crisp and golden.

BEEF STEW WITH BACON (Williams-Sonoma) (Slow Cooker) 4 oz. thick-cut bacon, chopped 3 Tbs. flour 1 tsp. salt, plus more, to taste 1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper, plus more, to taste 3 lb. boneless beef chuck, trimmed of excess fat and cut into chunks 3/4 lb. fresh cremini mushrooms, halved if large 1/2 lb. baby carrots 1/2 lb. frozen pearl onions 3 garlic cloves, minced 1 cup dry red wine 1 cup beef broth 2 Tbs. tomato paste 1 Tbs. minced fresh rosemary In a large fry pan over medium heat, cook the bacon, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain. Pour off the drippings into a small heatproof bowl, leaving about 1 Tbs. drippings in the pan. Set the pan, reserved drippings and bacon aside. In a sealable plastic bag, combine the flour, the 1 tsp. salt and the 1/2 tsp. pepper. Add the beef chunks and shake to coat evenly with the flour mixture. Return the fry pan to medium-high heat. When the drippings are hot, add half of the beef chunks and cook, turning once, until well browned, about 5 minutes on each side. Transfer the beef to the slow cooker. Repeat with the remaining beef chunks, adding the reserved drippings if needed. Scatter the mushrooms, carrots, onions and garlic on top. Return the pan to medium-high heat and add the wine, broth and tomato paste. Mix well, bring to a boil and deglaze the pan, stirring to scrape up the browned bits on the pan bottom. Pour the contents of the pan over the vegetables and beef. Cover and cook on the high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours or the low-heat setting for 8 to 9 hours. The beef should be very tender. Stir in the reserved bacon and the rosemary. Cook, uncovered, on the high-heat setting for 10 minutes more to thicken the sauce slightly. Season with salt and pepper and serve. Serves 6.

Luckygardner, I'll sure give that recipe a try. I wonder how the sauce would be served with spaghetti squash instead of pasta? I'll try with pasta first. Glenda, anything with taco seasoning gets my attention. Has anyone tried making your own taco seasoning? I need to try it. This recipe sounds like it would be good on a cold winter evening. See what happens when our weather cools off to the high 80's? I think of stews, casseroles and soup :-) BRAISED TARRAGON CHICKEN (Williams Sonoma) (Slow Cooker) 1 Tbs. vegetable oil 1 chicken, about 4 lb., cut into 8 pieces 2 large leeks, white and light green portions, rinsed well and thinly sliced Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste 2 tsp. minced garlic 2 Tbs. all-purpose flour 1/2 cup dry white wine 2 Tbs. chopped fresh tarragon 3 Tbs. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice 1 1/4 cups chicken broth 4 carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch lengths 1/2 cup heavy cream In the stovetop-safe insert of a slow cooker (or a skillet) over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Working in batches, brown the chicken on all sides, 7 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the leeks and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the pan bottom, until the liquid is almost evaporated, about 1 minute. Add 1 Tbs. of the tarragon, 2 Tbs. of the parsley, the lemon juice, broth, carrots and chicken. Transfer the insert to the slow-cooker base. Cover and cook on high according to the manufacturerÃ¯Â¿Â½s instructions until the chicken and carrots are tender, about 3 hours; stir in the cream during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Stir in the remaining 1 Tbs. tarragon and 1 Tbs. parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately with mashed potatoes alongside. Serves 4 to 6.

HoustonMom, I messed up; thanks for pointing that out. I grabbed the wrong recipe.....the one that I meant to post is an up-dated version of the one I posted.

Drain well; set aside. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Saute garlic for 1 min or until fragrant. Whisk flour into milk; gradually pour into pan, whisking constantly. Stir in sun-dried tomatoes, paprika, pepper and cook, stirring, for about 3 min or until bubbling and thickened. Remove from heat and stir in half of the cheese until melted.
