    You lost me on the maple. Unlike many I am not a fan of maple flavoured anything. Dunno why. Just never cared for it. Except maple-smoked and

    And I'm more of a pie guy than a cake eater. But, I do make pretty good
    cakes.

    How do you feel about sizzling chocolate pies?

    Title: Chili's Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie
    Categories: Chocolate, Copycat, Pies
    Yield: 1 Pie

    MMMMM------------------------COOKIE LAYER-----------------------------
    1 c All-purpose flour
    1/2 ts Baking soda
    1/4 ts Baking powder
    1/2 c Butter; softened
    1/3 c Granulated sugar
    1 Egg
    1 tb Milk
    1/2 ts Vanilla extract
    1/2 c Shredded coconut

    MMMMM------------------------CRUST LAYER-----------------------------
    6 tb Butter
    1/4 c Sugar
    1 1/2 c Graham cracker crumbs
    1 1/4 c Semi-sweet chocolate chips
    1/2 c Walnuts; chopped

    MMMMM----------------------CINNAMON BUTTER---------------------------
    1/2 c Butter; softened
    3 tb Granulated sugar
    1 1/2 ts Cinnamon

    MMMMM--------------------------TO SERVE-------------------------------
    9 Scoops vanilla ice cream
    Chocolate syrup
    Caramel syrup
    6 tb Walnuts; chopped

    What makes this dessert so special is the way it comes to your table
    sizzling in a cast iron skillet. just like fajitas. The chocolate chip
    cookie and graham cracker crust "pie" is topped with a scoop of
    vanilla ice cream, and then drizzled with chocolate and caramel
    syrup. It's all served up in a hot skillet of cinnamon butter. Yum!
    If you want to prepare this one just like they do at the restaurant,
    you'll need one of those skillets for each serving. Small iron
    skillets work the best, but any 6 or 8" frying pan will do fine. You
    just have to be sure your pan is super hot to get that authentic
    Chili's "sizzle." If you don't have enough of the right pans for each
    serving, you can slide it all onto a plate. It may not have the
    sizzle of the real thing, but it'll still taste awesome!

    Preheat the oven to 325?F.

    Combine the flour, baking soda, and baking powder in a medium bowl.

    In a separate large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar with an
    electric mixer. Continue beating for about 30 seconds or until mixture
    turns lighter in color. Add the egg, milk, and vanilla and beat until
    smooth.

    Slowly mix the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Beat until
    well-combined and then mix in the coconut flakes. Set this cookie
    dough aside for now.

    Melt 6 tb butter in a medium bowl in the microwave on high
    temperature for about 30 seconds. Add the sugar and stir well for 30
    seconds. Add the graham cracker crumbs and stir. Press this mixture
    into the bottom of a 9x9" baking dish or pan.

    Sprinkle the cup of chocolate chips evenly over the graham cracker
    crust.

    Press the cookie dough into the dish, covering the chocolate chips.
    Use flour on your fingers to keep the soft dough from sticking.

    Sprinkle the chopped walnuts over the dough. Use your fingers to
    press the nuts into the dough.

    Bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until the edges of the pie become light
    brown.

    Prepare the cinnamon butter by creaming together the butter, sugar,
    and cinnamon in a small bowl with an electric mixer on high speed.

    When you are ready to make your dessert, heat up a small skillet over
    medium heat. When the skillet is hot, remove it from the heat then add
    about 1 tb of the cinnamon butter to the pan. It should quickly melt
    and sizzle. Slice the pie into 9 pieces and place one into the hot
    skillet. If the pie has cooled, you can reheat each slice by zapping
    it in the microwave for 30 to 40 seconds.

    Place a scoop of ice cream on top of the pie. Drizzle chocolate and
    caramel syrup over the dessert and then sprinkle about 2 ts of
    chopped walnuts over the top. Repeat for the remaining ingredients
    and serve sizzling in the skillet.

    Title: Reptile Pot Pie

    Two can play that game. Here's a rattlesnake recipe. When my cousin was
    a kid, his teacher asked the students to bring family stories about
    surviving the great depression. My grandfather told him about cooking
    and eating skunks and rattlesnakes in Kansas. The teacher didn't believe
    my cousin and thought my grandfather had told tall tales. Perhaps the teacher's family had a milder time surviving the great depression on the
    Oregon coast.

    Title: Crispy Rattlesnake Coils
    Categories: Appetizers, Game
    Yield: 10 Servings

    1 Rattlesnake; cut in strips
    Flour
    Salt & pepper
    Crisco

    Cut rattlesnake into 8" strips about 1/4" thick. Salt and pepper
    lightly. Put flour into a container that can be covered. Add
    strips. Shake. Refrigerate for about 2 hours. This will allow the
    flour to become sticky and while the Crisco is heating in a deep
    fryer, pull the pieces apart and re-flour the pieces again. Add
    flour if necessary. When the Crisco shortening is hot, add only
    enough snake strips so that all pieces are covered by the hot
    grease. Fry until golden brown. Dump into a container that has been
    prewarmed in the oven. Continue frying the rest of the rattlesnake
    strips.

    Serving:

    Use a basket lined with a cloth napkin. Add the fried, coiled snake
    pieces. Cover with the napkin.

    Notes:

    The fried rattlesnake strips will appear to be coiled!

    Title: Boiled Snake w/Herbs
    Categories: Game, Herbs, Vegetables
    Yield: 3 servings

    1 Snake; cleaned, cut in pcs
    1 ga Water
    1 qt White wine; (opt)
    Salt & pepper
    1 tb Spiced Islands mixed herbs
    Fresh herbs; chervil, thyme\
    - or parsley
    1 Shallot; chopped
    1 c (packed) spinach or Swiss
    - chard

    Clean and skin the snake, removing all internal organs.
    Cut the snake into approximately 2" pieces.

    In a large pot, bring 1 gallon of water to a boil. If
    using white wine, add it to the water for extra flavor.

    Add salt, pepper, and your choice of spices/herbs to the
    boiling water. Stir to combine.

    Carefully add the snake pieces to the boiling water.
    Reduce heat to a simmer.

    After about 10 minutes of simmering, add the chopped
    shallot, leafy greens, and any fresh herbs you are
    using.

    Continue to simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the
    snake meat is tender and fully cooked.

    Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.
    You can enjoy the boiled snake as is or serve it with a
    side of rice or bread to soak up the flavorful broth.

    NOTES: Adjust seasoning according to your taste
    preferences; snake meat can be somewhat bland on its
    own.

    Experiment with different herbs based on availability
    and personal preference.

    I've got a bunch of rattlesnake recipes. But never met one in the wild. Copperheads and water moccasins now, that's a whole 'nother story.
    Title: Boiled Snake w/Herbs

    I'm the opposite. Never seen a copperhead or water moccasin, but i've met rattlesnakes in the wild. Once while hiking the lower Rogue River, the
    scout in front of me walked right over a rattlesnake sunning in the middle
    of the trail. I spotted it, stopped, and hollered. The scout in front of
    me became angry that he hadn't seen it. Fortunately, he had stepped over
    the snake and not on the snake. We used our walking sticks to "escort"
    it off the trail.

    Here is a completely unrelated recipe.

    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Chili's Southwestern Eggrolls
    Categories: Appetizers, Copycat
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1 Chicken breast fillet
    1 tb Vegetable oil
    2 tb Red bell pepper; minced
    2 tb Green onion; minced
    1/3 c Frozen corn
    1/4 c Canned black beans; rinsed

    1/2 ts Cumin
    1/2 ts Chili powder
    1/4 ts Salt
    1 ds Cayenne pepper
    3/4 c Monterey Jack cheese;
    - shredded
    5 Flour tortillas (7")

    MMMMM----------------AVOCADO-RANCH DIPPING SAUCE---------------------
    1/4 c Fresh avocado (about 1/2);
    - smashed
    1/4 c Mayonnaise
    1/4 c Sour cream
    1 tb Buttermilk
    1 1/2 ts White vinegar
    1/8 ts Salt
    1/8 ts Dried parsley
    1/8 ts Onion powder
    1 ds Dried dill
    1 ds Garlic powder
    1 ds Pepper

    MMMMM--------------------------GARNISH-------------------------------
    2 tb Tomato; chopped
    1 tb Onion; chopped

    Make these several hours before you plan to serve them so that they
    can freeze solid before frying. This will help to make the outside a
    dark golden brown, and the eggrolls will stay folded without letting
    any oil seep into the filling. This is how they cook 'em at the
    restaurant chain.

    Preheat barbecue grill to high heat.

    Rub the chicken breast with some vegetable oil then grill it on the
    barbecue for 4 to 5 minutes per side or until done. Lightly salt and
    pepper each side of the chicken while it cooks. Set chicken aside
    until it cools down enough to handle.

    Preheat 1 tb vegetable oil in a medium-size skillet over medium-high
    heat.

    Add the red pepper and onion to the pan and saut for 2 minutes until
    tender.

    Dice the cooked chicken into small cubes and add it to the pan. Add
    the corn, black beans, spinach, jalapeno peppers, parsley, cumin,
    chili powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to the pan. Cook for another 4
    minutes. Stir well so that the spinach separates and is incorporated
    into the mixture.

    Remove the pan from the heat and add the cheese. Stir until the
    cheese is melted.

    Wrap the tortillas in a moist cloth and microwave on high temperature
    for 1-1/2 minutes or until hot.

    Spoon approximately 1/5th of the mixture into the center of a
    tortilla. Fold in the ends and then roll the tortilla over the
    mixture. Roll the tortilla very tight, then pierce with a toothpick
    to hold together. Repeat with the remaining ingredients until you
    have 5 eggrolls. Arrange the eggrolls on a plate, cover the plate
    with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours. Overnight is best.

    While the eggrolls freeze prepare the avocado-ranch dipping sauce by
    combining all of the ingredients in a small bowl.

    Preheat 4 to 6 cups of oil to 375?F.

    Deep fry the eggrolls in the hot oil for 12 to 15 minutes and remove
    to paper towels or a rack to drain for about 2 minutes.

    Slice each eggroll diagonally lengthwise and arrange on a plate
    around a small bowl of the dipping sauce. Garnish the dipping sauce
    with the chopped tomato and onion.

    Title: Copycat Texas Roadhouse Rattlesnake Bites
    Categories: Appetizer, Cheese
    Yield: 24 Bites

    1 c Monterey Jack cheese;
    - shredded
    1 c Cheddar cheese; shredded
    4 Jalapenos; up to 5; seeded,
    - finely diced
    1/2 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Onion powder
    1/2 ts Smoked paprika
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    1 c All-purpose flour
    2 lg Eggs; beaten
    1 c Breadcrumbs
    Vegetable oil

    Cooking time: 25 minutes

    These Copycat Texas Roadhouse Rattlesnake Bites are a spicy and cheesy
    treat that's perfect for any gathering. Made with jalapenos and a
    blend of cheeses, then coated in breadcrumbs and fried to golden
    perfection, these appetizers are a crowd-pleaser with a kick. Simple
    to prepare and impossible to resist, they'll quickly become a
    favorite at your table.

    Filling:

    In a mixing bowl, combine Monterey Jack cheese, cheddar cheese,
    jalapenos, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and
    black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.

    Shape the Bites:

    Using your hands, roll the mixture into 1" balls. Place the balls on a
    parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes to firm up.

    Set Up the Breading Station:

    Prepare three shallow bowls: * Bowl 1: All-purpose flour * Bowl 2:
    Beaten eggs * Bowl 3: Breadcrumbs

    Bread the Cheese Balls:

    Roll each frozen cheese ball in flour, dip it in beaten eggs, and
    coat it with breadcrumbs. For extra crispiness, repeat the process
    (egg and breadcrumbs) one more time.

    Fry the Bites:

    I like everything in that... but I don't think I'd like it all
    together.

    Reminds me of when I first joined the Army...I think 1996. I was invited to
    a big off-post party--my first one as a soldier--and one of my friends from
    my unit was there. He had suffered an accident on the job and had to have
    his jaws wired shut.

    He was frustrated at the inability to eat so he asked the host if they had a blender. He put pizza, some chips, guacamole, a beer, and other odds and
    ends in the blender, turned on the blender, and made himself what he called
    a "party shake".

    He drank the whole thing through a straw.

    We agree--back in 2000, while we were in AZ Steve had jaw surgery. It
    wasn't wired shut but somehow held together so he was on a liquids diet
    thru a straw. One night I nuked a pizza hot pocket for myself for a
    snack. It smelled so good to Steve that he nuked one, put it in the
    blender with some tomato sauce, herbs and I don't remember if anything
    else. It wasn't the greatest, but it satisfied his craving. (G)

    Now that I have dentures, I try to be good and wear them to eat. It's still difficult for me to eat with them as I don't taste my food well but I am trying to learn to deal with it.

    Might make some boneless porkchops tomorrow and see how the choppers work with that meat.

    Now that I have dentures, I try to be good and wear them to eat. It's still difficult for me to eat with them as I don't taste my food well
    but I am trying to learn to deal with it.

    Still on the learning curve but sounds like you're on the downside now.
    Guess you'll have to learn to taste more with other areas of the mouth
    to fully appreciate food.


    Might make some boneless porkchops tomorrow and see how the choppers
    work with that meat.

    Hopefully they'll let you enjoy it. Grilling them on the Foreman?
