Chocolate Chip Toffee Cookies
Preheat your oven in a 350-degree oven. In a medium bowl combine two and a half cups of flour, a teaspoon of salt, and a half teaspoon of baking soda. In another bowl combine one and a half cups of dark brown sugar, a teaspoon of vanilla extract, two eggs, a cup of softened butter, two cups of chocolate chips, and a half cup of chopped toffee candy pieces. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix well. Drop spoonfuls of batter on a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes.
Semi-Homemade Banana Pudding
Line a greased glass pan with softened butter and then place a few vanilla wafers on the bottom of the pan. In a medium bowl, prepare two boxes of instant banana or vanilla pudding according to the package directions. Then add some banana pieces to the wafers along with a layer of pudding before topping the layer with more vanilla wafers. Repeat the layering process and then top the final layer with whipped cream. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Chocolate Dipped Apples
Melt a half cup of chocolate chips in the microwave for one minute then set aside to cool. Peel and slice two apples then dip each one in the melted chocolate. Place the dipped apple slices on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens. With these simple and delicious dessert ideas, you don't have to buy a lot of ingredients or spend too much time in the kitchen.
