Name: Flavored Chocolate Truffles
Category: Dessert
Type: Cooking
Skill Level: 1
Ease: 1
Usual Prep: 30 mins – 1 hour
Ingredients
3 cups powdered sugar
8 oz cream cheese (1 package)
12 oz baker’s semi-sweet real chocolate chips
1 T coffee flavored liqueur
1 T orange flavored liqueur
1 T almond flavored liqueur
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine powdered sugar, cream cheese and melted baker’s chocolate chips.
Divide resulting mixture into three bowls. Mix different liqueurs into each bowl. Different liqueurs or extracts may be used (ratio may not be the same).
Roll into balls. Top with toppings of your choice. Freeze.
Comments:
You will need a taster to see if you added the correct amount of flavoring into the truffle, since you will not be able to taste it. Make sure that the taster is out of the room while you mix it up.
Also, this is a great activity to do with kids over the age of 5.
Normal variations we use: melted peanut butter or pepermint extract works great. Powdered sugar is great for the topping.

Ingredients:
2/3 cup white sugar
2/3 cup white corn syrup
1 (18oz) jar of chunky peanut butter
3 cups of corn flake cereal
2 cups of milk chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Heat sugar and syrup together in heavy pan until boiling. Add peanut butter. Mix until well blended. Pour over corn flake cereal, coating the cereal well.

Quick and Easy Cheesecake
Desert
Baking
Skill Level 2
Ease Level 2
Usual prep time 5 minutes Baking Time 15-20 minutes
Ingredients
2 8 oz blocks of cream cheese
2 eggs
1/2 cup of sugar
2 tsp lemon or lime juice
Directions
Let cream cheese soften at room temp about 20-30 minutes
place in mixing bowl, add eggs and sugar and mix well
add lemon or lime juice (I use key lime juice)
Place vanilla wafer cookies in bottom of muffin pan and place one heaping tablespoon on top of cookie/wafer
Place muffin pan in oven at 350 degree for 15 to 20 minutes, till top turns golden brown. Pull out of oven and let cool completely. Once cooled I like putting 1 TBSP canned cherry or blueberry pie mix.
Any Extra Comments Makes 24 individual cheesecakes
You can also leave it plain, put shaved chocolate or any other items like that on there, you can also put chocolate chips or blueberries in the mix before baking. You can also flavor it with any other flavor like rum, maple, brandy, mint or whatever you desire.
This is a very popular item at holiday's, potluck's, as finger food on a buffet, I bring this to church for brunch. It travels fairly well as long as they are packed side by side or kept in the muffin tins. The cheesecake will deflate up cooling which makes a perfect well for the fruit.
