Dreamy, soft-batch, triple chocolate cookies 

If you love chocolate cookies you are going to enjoy these dreamy, soft-batch, triple chocolate cookies too. 

Now that the fall season is near, the baking begins again. In the summer months, my Arkansas kitchen gets way too muggy to enjoy having the oven on for long durations. It's nice to be in the kitchen baking cookies, cakes, and pastries once again now that the days are beginning to get shorter, and the temperatures are somewhat cooler.


I have spent the majority of the sultry days of summer whipping up no-bake, homemade desserts. Although cold desserts are delicious, it's delightful to be baking these dreamy, soft-batch triple chocolate cookies in my oven again.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

  • 3/4 unsweetened chocolate, finely chopped

  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

  • 1 package of sugar-free chocolate Jello pudding mix

  • 4 tablespoons butter

  • 1 cup self-rising flour

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated Splenda

  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature

  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

  • Optional: ¼ cup of chopped nuts

Instructions:

First, preheat the oven to 350°F. 


In a large microwaveable bowl, incorporate the bittersweet chocolate, unsweetened chocolate, and butter together. Microwave this mixture for 30 seconds. Stir well, then place it in the microwave again for an additional 20 seconds. Now, take the chocolate mixture out of the microwave, and stir it again. Set the chocolate mixture aside and let it cool while going on to the next step.


Next, in a large mixing bowl, add the Splenda and eggs. Beat with a mixer on medium-high speed for 10 minutes. Beat in the dry chocolate pudding mix, chocolate mixture, and pure vanilla for an additional 2 minutes. 


Next, add the flour on top of the Splenda mixture. Stir until combined. Then add in the semisweet chocolate chips and chopped nuts. Stir until chocolate chips and nuts are incorporated well into the cookie dough.


Drop dough by heaping tablespoons 3-4 inches apart on lightly buttered cookie sheets. Bake in the oven at 350°F until the tops of the cookies show signs of splitting, for about 12-15 minutes. Place the cookie sheets on wire racks to cool completely.

When the cookies are completely cool, store them in an airtight container.


This recipe makes two and a half dozen large triple chocolate cookies, or three dozen medium-sized cookies.

American pokeweed

American pokeweed  American pokeweed is a perennial, and it's commonly known as a survivalist plant. The plant is often referred to as poke salad, poke sallet, pokeweed, poke, among a few others. During the first days of spring, purplish shoots of pokeweed emerge from the soil. The plant will often pop up as a volunteer, and depending on the location, pokeweed can grow anywhere from 6 feet to 20 feet tall. The stalks and stems of pokeweed are an attractive purplish plum color. The leaves are a beautiful green color, and they can grow as big as 14 inches long by 7 to 8 inches wide. The plant's leaves will be tapered at each end. By summer, pokeweed begins producing long clusters of green and white flowers. The flowers turn into green berries that then transition from a light pink to a dark plum color. Pokeweed grows flowers and berries often at the same time and will continue to grow until the first frost. I have never pulled a pokeweed plant up from its roots, but I...

Vegetables that contain protein

Vegetables that contain protein If food prices have you scrambling down the aisles of the grocery store trying to find something that's more affordable than meat but still has protein, know that you're not alone! Back in the days when my grandparents went through the Great Depression, it was really tough times, but they survived through the hardships by growing their own food. There are a lot of veggies that actually do contain protein, and they're packed full of additional nutrients that our bodies all need. Vegetables highest in protein: Vegetables high in protein include artichokes, asparagus, beans, bean sprouts, and beans in general: broccoli, Brussel sprouts, chickpeas, green peas, kale, mushrooms, mustard greens, spinach, sweet corn, and turnip greens. For a few examples: Black beans contain 15 grams of protein in just a 1-cup serving. In fact, a 1/2 cup of cooked beans provides close to 7 grams of protein, which is the same as eating one ounce of meat. As for collar...
