DALMATIAN CUPCAKES

I do not like cake, but these are soooo good and come with a surprise in the middle. I eat them by two's. Two in the morning, two for lunch, and two for an afternoon snack. Kids especially love them.

2 packages (3oz. each) Cream Cheese
1/3 cup Sugar
1 Egg
1 1/2 cups Miniature Chocolate Chips
1 box of Betty Crocker Super Moist Devils Food Cake Mix
1 1/3 cups Water
1/3 cup Vegetable Oil
3 Eggs
1 container Betty Crocker Rich and Creamy Vanilla Frosting

Heat over to 350 (325 for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cups in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. In medium bowl beat cream cheese, sugar, and one egg with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Stir in one cup of chocolate chips; set aside.
In large bowl beat cake mix, water, oil, and three eggs on low speed for two minutes. Divide batter among muffin cups (about 1/4 cup in each). Top each with one heaping teaspoon on the cream cheese mixture.
Bake 17-22 minutes or until tops spring back when touched lightly. Cool for ten minutes in pan. Remove from pan, cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Frost with frosting. Sprinkle with remaining chocolate chips.

Chocolate Chip Pie

My grandma cliped this recipe out of her local paper back in the early 60's and has been delighting children (and adults) with it ever since. It is especially liked by two of my brothers. It's kind of like eating cookies and cream ice cream, but gelatin style. It has a creamy flavor, and the flakes of chocolate give it just the right amount of texture.

In a large pot, melt the following slowly (give yourself 20-30 minutes on med-low heat) and set aside to cool completely:
1 cup milk
1, 1 pound bag marshmallows
1 packet gelatinWhile your marshmallow mixture is cooling, prepare the following:

Make a graham cracker crust for a 9x13" pan.
3 cups grams crushed ( I like to leave mine a little chunky)
5-6 tablespoons sugar
2/3 cup butter, melted

Grate 2-4 (I always use 4) squares unsweetened baking chocolate, set aside.
Beat together 4 egg whites and 1 pint heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.

When marshmallow mixture is cool (otherwise your chocolate will melt) mix it with the egg whites and chocolate. Spoon over gram crust and refrigerate until set up. It takes at least 4 hours.

Cut brownie style and serve chilled!
