Best Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting EVER!


Today, I made a cake. (Since it is Mother's Day weekend, and I love a good chocolate cake)

Suddenly, as the cake was baking, I realized I did not have the ingredients I needed to make a good chocolate frosting.
Sigh.

WELL what I did have was a few ingredients, which when combined, made the best tasting chocolate cream cheese frosting ever. No recipe! Well, MY recipe!!!

Not only do I feel like I am, indeed, a genius, but, I feel like I have to share. To see if it's really any good.

Trisha's Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting

Ingredients
1 8oz brick of cream cheese, softened
4 cups powdered icing sugar
2 1oz squares of unsweetened baker's chocolate, melted

Directions
1. Beat cream cheese until smooth.
2. Slowly add icing sugar, one cup at a time, beating thoroughly.
3. Add melted chocolate while mixing.
4. Ta-da!

Delicious. Also healthier than making it with a bunch of butter and crisco. Which is nice.

10-Step Bread (TOP SECRET!!!)


This is by far the best, easiest bread recipe I have ever come across in my life.


I.... I almost don't want to share it with you. But I feel obligated, because it's so amazing. I have to share it with you.

I also have to thank Mamie, because she is the one who gave me the recipe. Amazing I tell you. Amazing.


10-Step Bread

Ingredients
5 1/2 cups hot water
2 tbsp quick-rise yeast

2/3 cup oil
2/3 cup honey (or sugar, or brown sugar)
12-14 cups flour (white, wheat, or part white and part wheat)

Directions
1-Put hot water in a large mixing bowl.
2-Put 7 cups of flour in the hot water.
3-Sprinkle the yeast, salt, honey, and oil over the flour.
4-Mix (beat, until well blended).
5-Keep adding flour, one cup at a time, until it's able to be kneaded.
6-Sprinkle some flour onto clean counter surface and knead for 10 minutes.
7-Grease pans. (Four big loaf pans, or six average loaf pans)
8-Separate into loaves and put in pans.
9-Turn oven on 350 let raise in pans while oven preheats. (15 minutes or so)
10-Bake for 40 minutes (or 45). (Until it sounds hollow when tapped)



Oh PLEASE - if you make this bread, let me know how it turned out. I'm wondering if it worked for me to mock all my failed breads past...

And if this is universally awesome, do share!

;o)


KNEAD, AHOY!!!
