:chef:Does anyone know of a quick and easy recipe I can do for dessert in the bar pan or round stone? I have on hand pillsbury sugar cookie dough, choc. chip dough, and peanut butter dough. It's not for a show, so it doesn't need to be elaborate. I was just hoping to do something a little more than just make them into regular cookies. Thanks in advance! :)
 
I think there is a recipe with the choc chip dough somewhere - check the recipe files or pm becky - she knows all of them!
 
Chocolate Chip Sensation! Bake the choc chip dough as a giant cookie, then top with sweetened cream cheese (8 oz cream cheese + 1/4 cup sugar). Top that with chocolate pudding that's made with less milk than usual so that it's really thick.YUM!!
