    Servings: 9

    INGREDIENTS

    Cooking spray

    6 graham crackers, whole

    ½ box vanilla cake mix, prepared according to package

    1 pound strawberries with tops removed

    1 8-ounce block cream cheese, softened

    1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk

    1 cup milk

    8 ounces whipped topping

    Strawberries for garnish

    PREPARATION

    1. Preheat oven to 350°F/175°C.

    2. Spray a 9x9 baking pan with cooking spray.

    3. Take 5 of the graham crackers and arrange them in the pan, breaking some of them to fill in the gaps.

    4. Crush the remaining graham cracker and set aside.

    5. Pour the vanilla cake batter on the graham cracker base, then bake for 25-30 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

    6. Using the back of a wooden spoon, poke 4 rows of 4 holes in the cake, making 16 holes total.

    7. In a large bowl, mash strawberries with a whisk until very fine.

    8. Add cream cheese and condensed milk, whisking until there are no large lumps.

    9. Add the milk, stirring until smooth.

    10. Pour the mixture over the cake and set until the cake has absorbed as much of the mixture as it can. Some of the mixture will still stay on top, which is okay.

    11. Spread the whipped topping evenly on top.

    12. Chill the cake anywhere from 3 hours to overnight.

    13. Slice, and serve with strawberries and the reserved graham cracker crumbs.

    Servings: 15-20

    INGREDIENTS

    25 chocolate sandwich cookies

    2 egg yolks

    2 cups half & half

    ¼ cup granulated sugar

    ¼ cup cornstarch

    5. Once the mixture starts to thicken, add in half of the cookie cream, stirring until smooth.

    6. Transfer the cream mixture into a bowl, covering the top with plastic wrap and pressing the wrap down onto the surface of the cream to prevent a skin from forming. Chill.

    Churro Ice Cream Bowls

    youtube.com

    Makes 8 churro bowls

    INGREDIENTS
    ¼ cup butter, cubed

    2 tablespoons brown sugar

    ½ teaspoon salt

    1 cup water

    1 cup flour

    1 teaspoon vanilla

    4 eggs

    Cooking oil spray

    Oil for frying

    Cinnamon sugar

    Ice cream

    Hot fudge and caramel topping (optional)

    6- to 12-cup muffin tin

    PREPARATION
    In a medium saucepan over medium/high heat, add butter, brown sugar, salt, and water and bring to a boil. As soon as the butter has fully melted and the mixture begins to boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and add in flour. Using a wooden spoon, stir until the dough comes together into a ball (about 1 minute). Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes before proceeding to the next step (to avoid accidentally cooking the eggs).

    Mix in the vanilla extract and add in the eggs, one at a time, making sure to fully incorporate each egg before adding the next. Once all the eggs are incorporated, transfer to a piping bag with a small star tip.

    Invert a muffin tin and spray thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray. Pipe the dough around the inverted cups in spirals to form the bowls. Immediately transfer the tray to the freezer and freeze until solid (about 3 hours or overnight).

    Heat oil in a deep pot to 350˚F/175˚C. Remove the muffin tin from the freezer and flex it to release the churro bowls (you may need to use a small knife under the bottom edge to initially release them). Return any extras to the freezer while you wait to fry.

    Fry them in batches, until nicely browned — no more than 3 at a time. Be sure to carefully tip them into the oil so they sink to the bottom. Once desired color is reached, remove them from the oil to a paper towel–lined plate. Dab off any excess oil, then roll them in a cinnamon sugar mixture. Fill with your favorite ice cream and toppings. Enjoy!
