WHY DOES CHOCOLATE MELT IN YOUR MOUTH RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350. Combine melted butter, oil, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in large bowl, beating at medium speed of mixer until well blended. Mixture will not resemble normal “creamed” batter because of the melted butter; this is totally ok. Beat in egg.
• Combine flours, salt, baking soda (and if using, oats) with a whisk to ensure everything is well incorporated. Mix, by hand, into wet ingredients just until blended. You might want to mix in about a third at a time to make it easier. At this point you may need to add a tablespoon or two of flour—you want the dough to be firm enough to easily roll into a ball. Stir in chocolate chips.
• Roll into balls about a little smaller than the size of a golf ball and place 2-3 inches apart on ungreased baking sheet. Press 3 or 4 chocolate chips into tops of cookies, and bake for 8-10 minutes for soft, chewy cookies, or 11-13 minutes for crisp cookies. I prefer soft and chewy, and they normally go for about 9 minutes.
• Cool for 5 minutes in sheets; transfer to wire racks.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Start with the crust: Mix the pecans and flour together. Melt butter; add to mixture and stir until moist.
• Press into a deep ungreased 9x11 inch pan--crust should be thin.
• Bake until lightly brown; cool completely.
• Blend the cream cheese and Cool Whip together until smooth. Add sugar slowly until mixed well (make sure the Cool Whip is defrosted and the cream cheese is at room temperature before starting). Spoon filling into crust and let sit in the refrigerator while you mix the pudding.
• Mix the 2 boxes of pudding with the milk. When the pudding is thickened, add it to the top of the cream cheese mixture. Let set in the refrigerator.
• Next spread the last tub of Cool Whip on top of the pudding, being careful not to mix with the pudding.
• Top with chopped pecans.
