Re: Dessert for Thanksgiving

I don't have the recipe but barefoot contessa croissant bread pudding...It's heaven. I'm not sure if her recipe calls for chocolate but I put it in and literally my DH would sit there after thanksgiving and nearly polish the whole thing off, and he's not a bread pudding fan!!!

Here ya go:

Chocolate Pecan Pie
Yield: 8 servings

* 4 ounce(s) Semi-Sweet Chocolate Baking Bar
* 2 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter
* 3 eggs
* 1 cup(s) light corn syrup
* 1/2 cup(s) light brown sugar, packed
* 1 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
* 1/8 teaspoon(s) salt
* 1 1/2 cup(s) pecan halves
* 1 (9-inch) unbaked piecrust, store-bought or homemade

Directions
Heat oven to 325F. In double boiler over hot water, melt chocolate and butter. In large bowl with electric mixer or whisk, beat eggs, corn syrup, sugar, vanilla and salt until blended; beat in chocolate mixture. Stir in pecans; pour into piecrust. Place pie on baking sheet on middle rack of oven; bake about 55 minutes or until filling is set. Cool completely at room temperature. Cut pie into 8 wedges; serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

For homemade piecrust, in large bowl, stir together 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. With 2 knives or pastry cutter, cut butter into flour until it is the size of small peas. Add 2 tablespoons very cold water; stir quickly with fork until dough comes together, adding up to 2 more tablespoons water if dough looks too dry. (Be careful not to add too much water, or dough will be tough.) Form into ball, flatten slightly and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before rolling. On lightly floured surface, roll dough into 14-inch circle. Line 9-inch pie pan with dough, cut away excess dough and crimp edge of piecrust. Prick bottom of piecrust all over with fork. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 1 day or freeze up to 1 month before using.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Brownies from Bakerella are a-ma-zing!

*Preheat oven to 350 degrees

*Follow directions on brownie box and pour mixture into greased 9x13 Pyrex...do not put in oven yet. (I use Ghiradelli Double Chocolate mix)

*Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough batter into brownie batter and press them down....when I am in a rush, I just use the Pillsbury cookie dough log and roll into balls.

*Bake 35-40 minutes

*Frost with chocolate ganache...so easy to make! I don't use the ganache recipe from the bakerella site, used it once but did not like it...I use this one:

*8 oz. bittwersweet baking chips (again, I use Ghiardelli)
* 1 cup heavy cream
*2 tbs. butter

*In a small saucepan, heat cream and butter until just before the boiling stage.

*Pour over the chocolate morsels.

*Let stand about 20 seconds and stir until smooth.

*Pour over brownies

*I put it in the fridge to firm it up.
