Subject: I really don't have my shopping done yet. I have some done, but I still have ALOT to do. We'll be here for Christmas day, but we're having a friend at our house. My Christmas with my sister and bro-n-law won't be until Dec. 29. Ahhhhh, I seriously can't wait until they move back to PA. I miss my sister like CRAZY!

[> I'm almost, but not quite finished shopping. With my last final not over until late Friday afternoon I had a lot going on. Now I can concentrate on other things. I have a goal to finish the draft of my manuscript before, hopefully, going back to school next semester. A visit to a surgeon tomorrow will let me know what my future plans are for the next few months. I may need an operation on my knee for some suspected torn cartilage from a work injury in August. Well see what happens. I'll update y'all on it tomorrow. I've put two chocolate recipes inside. :) -- Malia, 20:50:38 12/18/05 Sun [1]

Double-Chocolate Brownie Recipe
� 1 1/2 cups unsifted flour
� 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
� 1/2 teaspoon salt
� 1 cup butter
� 1 1/2 cups sugar
� 4 tablespoons water
� 2 12-oz package (4 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided in two
� 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
� 4 eggs
� 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In medium saucepan, combine butter, sugar, and water; bring just to a boil. Remove from heat. Add 12-oz chocolate chips and vanilla extract. Stir until chips melt and mixture is smooth. Transfer to large bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually blend in flour mixture. Stir in remaining 12-oz chips and nuts. Spread into greased 13-in by 9-in baking pan. Bake at 325, 45-55 minutes. Cool and serve.

Chocolate cake
Combine:
2 cups of flour
3/4 cup Hershey's cocoa
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1tsp salt
2 cups granulated sugar

Add: 1/2 cup Crisco Canola Oil
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup hot coffee

Beat with an electric mixer. Batter will be very runny. Pour into 9x13" greased baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees until done usually 35 to 40 minutes.

Test with knife or finger tip for cake to spring back.

Qualifier: The brownies work best in a convection oven and or/glass pan. I haven't tried the chocolate cake recipe myself yet but my former boss made it and I loved it so I had to ask for the recipe.

Another great thing to do is make fudge and then use the mixture for chocolate sauce over vanilla ice cream, yum. Or if you want a quick brownie varation take a mix and add half a bag of butterscotch morsels to them, bake and serve warm out of the oven with vanilla ice cream. It's very good.
