Easy Peasy Dessert

Okay, I know some of you will think this is cheating, but I'm telling you right now: If you're looking for a dessert for anyone who likes dark chocolate (and that would be almost everyone on the planet, right??) Then this is the dessert of choice. What's not to like about delicious AND easy!

Ingredients:

AMAZING dark chocolate

Crunchy hazelnuts

Comes in individual wrappers, and can be purchased from Walmart or Target.  I first tasted Ritter seven years ago in a little shop in London. At that time, they weren't in Walmart or Target, at least not in my area. In spite of the fact that I usually eat a Cadbury bar a day when in London (because they're actually available at Underground stations in vending machines devoted solely to Cadbury products!), I tried Ritter and it is the...

...BEST dark chocolate I have EVER eaten. And don't forget: unlike other desserts, dark chocolate actually has health benefits! :-)

I test Ritter bars frequently to make sure, but I think I've got enough evidence in now to conclude that it's also the best dessert money can buy.

So, unless you're really intent upon standing in the kitchen working on a fussy dessert, just pick up several bars of Ritter Sport Dark Chocolate With Hazelnuts!

P.S. Wouldn't you think they could compensate me for my enthusiasm? I'd be willing to take payment in Ritter bars.
P.P.S. Please don't waste your Ritter Sport Dark Chocolate with Hazelnuts on a milk-chocolate lover. They just don't get it!

Yummy MOUNDS BARS!

If you enjoy making a pan of bars that will vanish in about an instant, this is the recipe for you. I have made this recipe for a couple occasions recently and they are loved by everyone who likes coconut, dark chocolate, and excessive sweetness.

Here's the recipe for a 13 x 9 cake pan:

2+ c. crushed Graham crackers

1/2 c. sugar

1/2 c. melted butter.

Mix together, pan into pan. Bake in 350 degree oven for 10 minutes.

In a bowl, mix 4 c. shredded or flake coconut, 2 cans sweetened condensed milk. Spread this mixture over the top of the baked crust.  Place back into 350 degree oven. Bake until coconut is lightly browned. This will take 20 minutes or so.

In microwave or in a pan on the stove, melt 2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/4 c. peanut butter. Spread over top of bars.

 

Cut when cool. After they've reached room temperature, you may need to place them in the refrigerator for a bit to set the chocolate. Then they can be out at room temperature again.

I told you they go fast!
