Chocolate Sheet Cake

Chocolate sheet cake, from Pioneer Woman.  I subbed almonds for pecans in the icing because that’s what I happened to have.

This is probably the worst ratio ever in terms of beauty to delicious-ness.  I forgot to snap a pic of this before I took it to a playdate, and even this shot was hard to grab before my family descended upon the leftovers.  Hey, I never said ALL the pics would be pretty.

Ice Cream Bar

Magnum chocolate caramel ice cream bar.

[OK, this is a bit of a cheater post, as I’ve been saving it for a while.  But I forgot to drag my camera out with us to dinner last night, and had no other pics or decent food handy, so there it is.]

I’d been seeing the commercials for those Magnum bars for a while now, and I finally broke down a while back and bought a box from the store not too long ago.  All I can say is, so. freaking. good.  I need to try the double chocolate next.  These have potential to be a dangerous addiction.

Rice Krispie Treat

Rice Krispie treat with chocolate.

I made these with my daughter yesterday. On a whim, we dumped in a cup of mini chocolate chips, which got a bit more melty than I expected.  They’re good, but I think I actually like them better plain, which is saying something since I’m a freak for chocolate.

Ice Cream

Black raspberry ice cream with dark chocolate chunks.

Believe it or not, this is actually store-brand ice cream from Kroger!  I think the raspberry flavor could be a bit more intense, but the giant chunks of dark chocolate more than make up for that.  It also doesn’t hurt that it’s about 2/3 the price and twice the size of Häagen-Dazs.
