Chilis Chocolate Dessert Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Prepare a 9-inch spring form pan: Cut a circle of parchment the size of the removable bottom of the pan. Fit the parchment circle into the bottom of the pan. Tear off an 18-inch length of aluminum foil. Center the pan over the sheet of foil and crumple and crimp the foil all around the sides of the pan. (The foil will prevent water from seeping into the pan during baking.) Set the pan aside.
• In a medium saucepan, bring the espresso, brown sugar and the cinnamon sticks to a simmer over very low heat. Simmer until the syrup is very fragrant, about 20 minutes. Stir in the butter until melted, and then stir in the cayenne pepper. Set aside.
• Pulse the chocolate in the food processor until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a deep bowl. Pour in the warm coffee syrup and whisk until the chocolate is completely melted. Whisk in the beaten eggs until completely blended.
• Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Set the pan in a large, deep, oven-proof skillet or a roasting pan and set on the oven rack. Pour in enough water to come halfway up the sides of the pan. Bake until center is set and barely wiggles when you shake the pan gently, 50 to 60 minutes.
• Cool the cake to room temperature. Remove the foil and chill the cake in the pan at least 8 hours. Run a wet knife around the sides of the pan then pop the spring to release. Place a platter on top of the cake and flip over. Remove the bottom of the pan, and peel off the parchment. Serve with cinnamon ice cream and raspberries.

Steps:

• Combine ground round and onion in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until beef is browned, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer cooked beef and onions to slow cooker. Stir in water, tomatoes, kidney beans, black beans, corn, chocolate chips, chili powder, cumin, oregano, and salt. Cook on High until chili begins to bubble, about 20 minutes. Reduce heat to Low, and cook until thick, about 2 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Heat currants and coffee liqueur in a saucepan over low heat until it begins to simmer, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Combine unsweetened chocolate, bittersweet chocolate, and butter in bowl. Place bowl on top of a saucepan filled with 1-inch of water set over low heat. Stir chocolate mixture occasionally until melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Mix flour, black pepper, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper in large bowl and set aside.
• Whisk sugar and eggs in a small bowl until light, fluffy, and pale yellow, about 5 minutes. Slowly whisk in vanilla and melted chocolate mixture.
• Fold flour mixture into sugar and chocolate mixture until combined.
• Stir in dark chocolate chips and liqueur-soaked currants.
• Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough 2 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are almost set, about 12 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and leave on baking sheets to cool, 5 minutes.
• Transfer to cooling rack and allow to finish cooling, 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
• Combine the flour, baking soda and baking powder in a medium bowl.
• In a separate large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer.
• Continue beating for about 30 seconds or until mixture turns lighter in color.
• Add the egg, milk, and vanilla and beat until smooth.
• Slowly mix the dry mixture into the wet mixture.
• Beat until well-combined and then mix in the coconut flakes.
• Set this cookie dough aside for now.
• Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a medium bowl in the microwave on high temperature for about 30 seconds.
• Add the sugar and stir well for 30 seconds.
• Add the graham cracker crumbs and stir.
• Press this mixture into the bottom of a 9x9-inch baking dish or pan.
• Sprinkle the cup of chocolate chips evenly over the graham cracker crust.
• Press the cookie dough into the dish, covering the chocolate chips.
• Use flour on your fingers to keep the soft dough from sticking.
• Sprinkle the chopped walnuts over the dough.
• Use your fingers to press the nuts into the dough.
• Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the edges of the"pie" become light brown.
• Prepare the cinnamon butter by creaming together the butter, sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl with an electric mixer on high speed.
• When you are ready to make your dessert, heat up a small skillet over medium heat.
• When the skillet is hot, remove it from the heat then add about 1 tablespoon of the cinnamon butter to the pan.
• It should quickly melt and sizzle.
• Slice the"pie" into 9 pieces and place one into the hot skillet.
• If the"pie" has cooled, you can reheat each slice by zapping it in the microwave for 30-40 seconds.
• Place a scoop of ice cream on top of the"pie.
• "Drizzle chocolate and caramel syrup over the dessert and then sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of chopped walnuts over the top.
• Repeat for the remaining ingredients and serve sizzling in the skillet.

Steps:

• Prepare your cake mix as directed on box. Prepare a bundt cake pan with cooking spray.
• Bake as directed. Let you cake cool just a little -- you want to serve it warm. Now, if you want to be really creative, you can slice your cake so that you can fill it with the white morsels that you will be melting. We haven't worried about being that creative yet.
• So we melt the white morsels in the microwave just enough to warm them, stir them & spread over each cake slice. Scoop your desired amount of ice cream (we like Publix vanilla) & place it on your cake slice. Drizzle with Raspberry sauce & if you like, you can use a vegetable peeler & grate some vanilla bark to sprinkle over the top. Enjoy!
• You can use your judgement on the white morsels, vanilla ice cream, raspberry sauce & vanilla bark to suit your taste.
