Chocolate Crackles

I love these no bake style cookies! Ready in minutes and yummy!

I doubled this recipe, which is adapted from a Good Housekeeping cookbook.


3 oz semi sweet chocolate chips
2 cups crispy rice cereal
2 graham crackers, broken into small pieces


Melt chocolate chips in microwave for about a minute. Stir. Mix in cereal and graham crackers.
Drop by 1/3 cupfuls onto cookie sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate 30 minutes.

Next time I make these, I am going to mix in some peanut butter and see how that tastes.

~Big Al's~ Subs

 I was inspired by this article from my sister Rob, who explains who Big Al is and what he has meant to legions of hungry people in a small town: http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474977272353&nav=Namespace What makes Big Al's subs better than any others that I have tried are the buns. He uses the same dough recipe as he does for the pizza. This is what I have tried to recreate here. I also made the sub sauce, which is near world famous. I don't think anyone who orders a sub from Big Al's does not also get a side of the sauce. (Well, other than me, but Matt likes it, so of course I had to make it). This is my version of the Big Al's Special complete with sub sauce. Homemade Sub Buns (recipe follows) Capicola Genoa Salami Provolone Cheese Lettuce, tomato and onion Pepperoncini (optional. They aren't authentic to an Al's) Al's Sub Sauce (recipe follows) Homemade Sub Buns I use this pizza dough recipe, which I really like:...

What's the Bzz? Starbucks Pike Place Roast and Cafe Verona Coffees

Image
I was pretty excited about this particular Bzz campaign. I've been a coffee drinker all of my adult life and really thought I could do this report particular justice. I've drank bought and coffee at all levels: high end beans you grind yourself, middle of the road grinds, store brands and even generic. I've pretty much had it all. I was sorely mistaken about this being easy to write up. How do you put into words coffee aroma, taste and flavor and other essential elements to a good cup of joe? From the Bzz materials: Pike Place Roast : "a smooth, round finish and subtle flavors of cocoa and toasted nuts...", the perfect every day coffee. Pike Place Roast was a fantastic cup of coffee. It was smooth, not bitter at all. I certainly didn't detect any cocoa or toasted nuts though. I served my cup with a splash of half and half and it was the perfect blend. The aroma upon first opening the bag was heavenly, just like a good coffee shou...
