I make this chocolate mousse pie for the holidays. It is the only pie that is gone at the end of the night. I use high-quality chocolate chips because they are easier to melt. You can use milk or semi-sweet chips. You can use any ready-made or cooked pie crust.
Ingredients
- 21 chocolates sandwich cookies , crushed
- 0.25 cups butter , softened

Autumn Apple Pear Chutney
This spiced apple and pear chutney is one of the last things I make each fall. I love it alongside roasted root vegetables and in place of applesauce with Hanukkah latkes. I don't typically peel pears, but if yours have tough, pebbly skin, you might want to peel them.
Rock's T-Bone Steaks
Grill a T-bone steak with this easy homemade seasoning to make it taste awesome. This spice blend is the best, as it doesn't overpower the steak flavor. I can't eat a steak out anymore because I always compare it to this seasoning.
Alia's Osso Buco
I love osso buco. To me, not only is it comfort food at its best, but it is also a great choice when entertaining. Plus it's so easy to prepare!
