Tests = dessert to celebrate

Brownie Balls
on test day
similar to cake balls, but better! Cake balls were just too messy and goo-ey for me. Brownie balls are so much better...

1. make a batch of brownies
2. when warm, crumble and form little balls with your hands
3. freeze for a few minutes to harden
4. melt chocolate bark
5. dip each brownie ball into chocolate and let cool on foil
6. melt colored candy (from Michaels) and put into ziplock bag; cut a small corner and squeeze and decorate!

Some people freeze the brownie balls afterwards, but I like them at room temperature because it's easier to bite in to. You could freeze and then later let thaw, but then they tend to sweat and the chocolate begins to melt a little.

Ice Cream Pie
for a great first test grade!



1. layer pan with vanilla wafers
2. scoop a gallon of vailla ice cream onto the wafers
3. melt: 1/2 bag of marshmellows, 1/3 cup of evaporated milk, and 1/2 a bag of chocolate chips
4. poor chocolate on ice cream and freeze for a few hours
5. when ready to serve, thaw for a few minutes

This recipe I got from his mom. It's a regular at their house, and will soon be in ours! Next were going to try oreos with mint chocolate chip ice cream and chocolate.


Have a yummy week!
