Answer 3

Chocolate Mint Dessert Brownies
INGREDIENTS
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups chocolate syrup
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons creme de menthe liqueur
6 tablespoons butter
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup of softened butter until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the chocolate syrup. Stir in the flour until just blended. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until top springs back when lightly touched. Cool completely in the pan.
In a small bowl, beat the confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup butter or margarine and creme de menthe until smooth. Spread evenly over the cooled brownies, then chill until set.
In a small bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the remaining 6 tablespoons of butter and the chocolate chips, stirring occasionally until smooth. Allow to cool slightly, then spread over the top of the mint layer. Cover, and chill for at least 1 hour before cutting into squares.

Answer 4

Creamy Pecan Pralines

INGREDIENTS:
4 cups granulated sugar
1 cup half-and-half
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups pecans coarsely broken up
dash of salt
PREPARATION:
Boil 3 cups of sugar with the half-and-half in a large saucepan until a small amount forms a soft ball when dropped into very cold water, about 236° on a candy thermometer. Meanwhile, melt remaining 1 cup sugar in heavy skillet, stirring constantly over medium-low heat until it reaches the brown caramel stage.
When both mixtures are ready, carefully add caramel sugar to first mixture, stirring with a long wooden spoon. Test for soft ball and when done, remove from heat and cool to lukewarm. Add vanilla, nuts and salt, and beat until creamy and stiff. Drop onto buttered wax paper. Let cool; remove from wax paper. Store in tightly covered container.
Makes about 2 dozen pralines.
