Ingredients:
1/2 cup water 3/4 cup granulated sugar 3/4 tsp. peppermint extract 1/4 cup crushed candy canes 7 oz. dark, milk, or white chocolate Method: Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or aluminium foil. Heat water and sugar in small saucepan. Boil for 2 minutes without stirring. Stir in peppermint extract and crushed candy canes. It's okay if some of the candy canes start to melt. Pour hot syrup on to cookie sheet. Let stand until cooled and set, then crush in a blender. Melt chocolate in a bain marie or in a microwave. Stir in the crushed mint candy and mix well. Pour the melted chocolate on to the parchment-lined cookie sheet. Let set, then cut in to sticks. Enjoy! -Gabriella Hall

This chocolate pie is so delicious. When slicing the pie, wipe your knife in hot water after each slice. It's kind of a nuisance but your slices will look professional. Enjoy!
Ingredients: (crust) 1 1/4 cups graham crackers 3 tbsp. melted butter 1-2 tbsp. milk or cream (filling) 3 eggs 3/4 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup melted butter 1 tbsp. vanilla 1 tbsp. coffee 3 tbsp. all purpose flour 1 1/2 cup chocolate chunks 1/2 cup crushed candy canes Method: Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine graham crackers, butter, and cream and dump in to pie plate (tin foil pie plates from the store are fine too if you don't have one). Press down firmly, then bake for around 5-7 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Beat eggs and brown sugar, preferably with an electric mixer, until very thick and tripled in volume, around 6 minutes. Beat in butter, vanilla, and coffee. Mix well. Fold in flour, chocolate chunks and crushed candy canes. Pour batter over hot pie crust and return to the oven. Bake for 40 minutes. Let the pie cool or it will ooze everywhere if you try and slice it. I recommend freezing it. The pie will be dense, fudgy and delicious! -Gabriella Schneider |
