Enough said. The name alone is enough to ignite even the most tame sweet

cream, cake, bananas. Pour me over anything---just pour me.

1. Pour water and sugar into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook for 5
minutes. Remove from heat and add cocoa, stirring constantly. Return to
low heat and simmer for 5 minutes, until the cocoa is thoroughly
dissolved. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, and serve hot or cold.

Chocolate Chip Cracker Kisses - 1 Point

Recipe By : Jane Paquet (handed down & modified)
Serving Size : 60 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Desserts

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 egg whites -- * see note
1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
2/3 cup sugar -- extra-fine
-- preferred

6 fat-free saltine crackers -- **crushed,3T

2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips -- mini chips

Pre-heat oven to 300* F. Prepare a cookie sheet by covering it with
baker's parchment. In a totally grease-free mixing bowl, beat egg whites
on high until frothy. Add vanilla and cream of tartar. Continue beating
while gradually adding sugar. Make sure that sugar dissolves completely
and that mixture is not grainy. (I find that Bartender's sugar dissolves
most easily.) When mixture is quite stiff (consistency of marshmallow
fluff-- after about 5-10 mins. of beating), gently fold in saltine crumbs
and chocolate chips. Drop the meringue-like dough, 1 teaspoon at a time,
onto prepared cookie sheet. I use a very small ice cream scoop for this
purpose. They can be put right next to each other, they rise very little.
Entire recipe fits on one cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes. On a humid
day, I usually turn the oven off 5 minutes early and leave the cookies in
the oven with the door closed until I'm ready to serve them. Yields about
60 1inch kisses.

NOTES :

Meringues can easy, if you know a few simple rules: 1) Everything that
touches the egg whites must be absolutely grease-free. Fat breaks down
the structure of beaten egg whites. Yolks contain fat, so it is important
not to get any yolk into the whites. I run everything through the
dishwasher before preparing meringues (mixing bowl, beaters, rubber
spatula, and teaspoon or ice-cream scoop)

2)* Eggs separate best when cold,but they beat up best at room
temperature. *An alternative to separating eggs is to use powdered egg
whites. They are available in the supermarket as "Just Whites". I really
like the fact that they are pasteurized (safe for taste-testing the
batter)

I don't recommend making this recipe on a very humid day unless you have
reliable air-conditioning; it can really flop!

**I use fat-free salted top saltines. Nutr. Assoc. : 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4886

Per MasterCook analysis: Each kiss contains: 22 cals(28% CFF), 0.7g fat,
0.2g fiber 2 kisses= 1 point

Chocolate Souffle - 3 points

Recipe By :Eating Well, October, 1992
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : REG 6 Suzanne C.


Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
3/4 cup sugar
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup skim milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
7 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 ounce unsweetened chocolate -- grated
confectioner's sugar -- for dusting

In a small, heavy saucepan, blend cocoa, 1/4 cup sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Whisk in milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly. continue stirring and cook for 1 minute, or until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. let cool to room temperature. (the recipe can be prepared ahead to this point. Store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Bring to room temperature before proceeding.)
Position rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat the inside of a 2 quart souffle dish or six 1 1/2 cup individual souffle dishes with vegetable oil or nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with sugar and tap out excess.
In a large, crease-free mixing bowl, beat egg whites with and electric mixer on medium speed until foamy and opaque. Add cream of tartar and salt; gradually increase speed to high and beat until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and beat until stiff (but not dry) peaks form.
Stir the cocoa mixture well. Whisk about one-quarter of the beaten eggwhites into the cocoa mixture to lighten it. Sprinkle in the grated chocolate and, using a rubber spatula, fold the cocoa mixture back into the remaining whites. Turn into the prepared dish(es) and smooth top(s) with the spatula.
Place the dish(es) in a roasting pan. Fill the pan with hot water to come one-third of the way up the side(s) of the dish(es). Bake until puffed and the top feels firm to the touch, about 25 minutes for individual souffles or about 40 minutes for a large souffle. Dust with confectioner's sugar and serve immediately.

Chocolate-Peppermint Angel Pie - 5 points

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 10 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Pie

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
--Meringue Crust
3 large egg whites -- at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/8 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sugar -- preferably superfine
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
--Chocolate Mousse Filling
1 cup skim milk
1 large egg
1/3 cup light corn syrup
2 teaspoons light corn syrup -- combine two corn syrup amounts
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 ounces semisweet chocolate -- finely chopped
2 ounces Neufchatel cheese -- softened
2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1/2 cup sugar
2 large egg whites -- room temperature
--Garnish
1 ounce semisweet chocolate

TO MAKE CRUST: Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-inch pie plate and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine egg whites, cream of tartar and salt. Beat with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add 1/4 cup sugar and beat for 30 seconds. Gradually beat in the remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Add vanilla and beat for 7 to 10 minutes longer, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl, until all the sugar is dissolved and the meringue is stiff and shiny.
Spread the meringue over the bottom and sides of the prepared pie plate. using the back of a spoon, spread some meringue up to the rim, forming a decorative edge. Alternatively, using a piping bag fitted with a start tip, pipe the meringue into the pie plate. Bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until firm and crisp. Cool on a wire rack. (The meringue crust can be prepared ahead and stored, covered, in an airtight container for up to 1 week.)
TO MAKE FILLING: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup milk, 1 whole egg, 1/3 cup corn syrup and cocoa until smooth. In a heavy 2 quart saucepan, heat the remaining 3/4 cup milk until bubbles appear at the edge; remove from heat. Whisk a little hot milk into the cocoa mixture. Then whisk the cocoa mixture into the remaining milk in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate and cream cheese until smooth. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1/4 cup water. let soften for about 3 minutes. heat over low heat for 1 to 3 minutes, or until the gelatin is dissolved. whisk into the chocolate mixture along with vanilla and peppermint. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar and 2 tsp. corn syrup. Bring to a boil and cook, without stirring, over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, or until the syrup registers 230 degrees F on a candy thermometer and is at thread stage (when a bit of syrup dipped in cold water forms a fine thread). At this point, in a medium-sized mixing bowl, begin beating egg whites with an electric mixer at medium low speed. Beat until soft peaks form. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and beat at medium high speed until egg whites are stiff but not dry.
When the sugar syrup registers 239 degrees F and is at soft-ball stage (when a bit of syrup dipped in cold water forms a soft, pliable ball), gradually pour it over the beaten egg whites, beating constantly at medium-high speed. Beat at medium speed for about 5 minutes longer, or until the egg whites are stiff, satiny and cool.
Whisk about 1 cup of this meringue into the chocolate mixture. fold in the remaining meringue. turn into the prepared meringue crust, spreading to the edges. Smooth top. Cover loosely with plastic and refrigerate until the filling is set, for at least 3 hours or for up to 8 hours.
TO GARNISH PIE: If desired, warm chocolate in a microwave oven at medium low (30 percent) power for 1 to 2 minutes, or just until slightly softened but not melted. Alternatively, warm it in a 250 degree F oven for 3 to 5 minutes using a vegetable peeler, shave off curls onto a sheet of wax paper. Arrange the curls decoratively over the top of the pie.

2 tablespoons skim milk

NOTES : Original recipe called for Promise Ultra Fat Free Margarine and Dutch Process Unsweetened Cocoa and provided the following nutritional information for 1 tablespoon: 62 Calories/0.4 Fat Grams/No Fiber Grams. It also indicated there is in enough frosting to frost a 13" x 9" cake.

I figure it makes close to 25 tablespoons.
