FLAN
2 c. half and half cream
4 egg yolks
2-1/2 tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/3 c. light brown sugar
Heat the half- and- half. In a mix master bowl, beat the egg yolks, gradually adding the sugar and beating it until it forms a ribbon. Slowly dribble the hot cream into the egg mixture while beating. Beat at low speed so as not to add air. Add vanilla.
Pour into a one- quart soufflé dish or 5 individual 3-½ inch soufflé dishes. Place in a pan containing one inch of hot water and bake, uncovered, at 325 F. until set. The one- quart soufflé will take 40 minutes and the individual soufflés will bake in 25 minutes.
When the custard is set, sprinkle with sifted light brown sugar (sift through a strainer). Cover the custard all the way to the sides. Place under a broiler or 450 F. for a minute until the sugar melts. DO NOT BURN the sugar. Chill and serve cold. Makes 5-6 servings.
PORTUGUESE COOKIES
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons butter
2 eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Preheat the oven to 325 F. In a medium bowl, stir together the cornstarch and white sugar. Add the butter and cream well. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Combine the flour and baking powder; stir into the sugar mixture until a dough forms. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters. Place cookies 1 inch apart onto an unprepared cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes in the preheated oven, until cookies are golden brown at the edges. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Peanut Butter Brownies
Bake a regular batch of brownies. It needs to be a 9x13 pan size batch. Let them cool.
Pour 1 bag or Reese's peanut butter chips (in an orange package sold by the chocolate chips) and 1 can of sweetened milk in a pot. Melt the chips and milk, but you must be constantly stirring them or they will burn.
Once melted, pour on top of your brownies.
Drizzle two melted Hershey bars on it in straight lines going either way. Take a butter knife and "slice" down the opposite way of the chocolate so that it makes wave shapes.
Sprinkle with chopped pecans.
Let it all cool and cut into brownie size servings.
This goes well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
This dessert is really rich and tastes really good! It's always a hit wherever I take it!
