Chocolate Peppermint Bark - Christmas

Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• 12 ounces quality chocolate (like ghirardelli)
• 12 ounces quality dark chocolate (like ghirardelli)
• 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candy (i use starlite)

Recipe

• 1 line a 9x12 pan with parchment paper.
• 2 melt the dark chocolate (use the method you prefer, either double boiler, or microwave - cook 30 seconds in a heat-proof bowl, stir and repeat until you have a smooth consistency.
• 3 pour the melted dark chocolate on the parchment paper, spread the chocolate out until it is about 1/3" thick. you can do this by hitting the pan on the countertop repeatedly, or maybe you could use a spatula to spread the chocolate.
• 4 melt the chocolate, using the steps above. after the chocolate is smooth, pour it on top of the dark chocolate - trying to make the layers the same thickness. (it's best to do this step while the chocolate is still very soft -- i've had them separate when i broke them into pieces, i think the layers "stick" together better if the chocolate has not hardened).
• 5 unwrap the starlite mints, or peppermints of your choice and put them into a heavy duty ziplock bag. using a hammer or meat tenderizer - crush the mints then, while the chocolate is still melted sprinkle on top.
• 6 let the chocolates harden in the refrigerator for 2 hours, then break the candy into pieces. this needs to be stored in the refrgerator if you live in a warm/humid climate.

Cousin Jim's Amazing Apple Pie

Total Time: 1 hr 45 mins Preparation Time: 40 mins Cook Time: 1 hr 5 mins

Ingredients

• 6 -7 large granny smith apples
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2/3 cup shortening
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/3 cup ice water
• 2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine, to taste
• 3 -4 tablespoons sugar, to taste

Recipe

• 1 prepare the apples: peel, core, and slice apples thinly, and place in a large bowl.
• 2 cover apples with sugars, flour, vanilla, and spices, and mix well with apples; set aside.
• 3 at this point, preheat oven to 350°.
• 4 prepare the dough: mix salt, flour, and shortening in mixer- then add ice cold water.
• 5 remove dough, divide in half, and roll out one half using flour to keep from sticking- reserve the other half for top crust.
• 6 line 9 inch pie pan with half dough; allow 1/4 inch extra dough to stick out- you'll pinch it with the top crust later.
• 7 put apple mixture into crust-lined pan.
• 8 roll out top crust and cover apples.
• 9 finish the pie: gently pinch bottom and top crusts together, and flute edges of dough (make it pretty).
• 10 poke several fork holes in top crust, and dot crust with butter and sprinkle with sugar.
• 11 bake at 350° for 65-70 minutes.
• 12 allow to cool 20 minutes before serving plain or with vanilla bean ice cream, cool whip, or whipped cream; this also warms up great in the microwave.
• 13 and, by all means, enjoy!
