Heavenly Hazelnut Chocolate Cheesecake

Fairy Food
I used to live in Wisconsin, and this recipe was awesome!! We made it the first time when we were kids, and our parents weren't home.... freaked us out (we couldn't figure out at first why you needed a large pot). We just spead it out on a big cookie sheet, and then broke it up. The less baking soda, the better. When I moved down to Alabama, I tried making the exact same recipe (it was one of my favorites) about 5 times before realizing that the humidity was screwing it up. So the people who posted the negative reviews might take that into consideration. Edit: I was able to make it work in high humidity!!! It was even raining the entire day I made it .... here's how I did it: Make the fairy food, pour it in the pan, and immediately refrigerate. As soon as it's set(about 30 min?), take it out, break it up, and dip it in chocolate, then immediately put it in freezer in air tight container. Doesn't take long to thaw it, so take it out of the freezer about 20 minutes before you serve it. Worked for me!!

Chicken and Spinach Alfredo Lasagna
Awesome recipe. Used Broccoli instead of spinach, we love broccoli. Just a thought .... "al dente" means to cook the noodles until they're just a little soft. It only took 5 minutes for me. If you overcook them, they won't absorb as much liquid when you bake it, and your lasagna might end up runny,as some have commented on. I grilled my chicken, then put it in a slow cooker, then shredded it. It added an awesome flavor to the dish, and was worth the effort.

Heavenly Chipped Chocolate and Hazelnut Cheesecake
Great cheesecake. I had some fun, and used milk chocolate in the crust, semisweet chocolate in the filling and the glaze, and then drizzled it with dark chocolate. Check out the picture, it turned out great. I more than doubled the recipe, and made one 9" and one 10". The crust was a liitle tough to get to stick up the sides of the pan, but with a little work, I got it to stick. After it was cooked, it stayed up fine. I made this for an auction for the Young women's program at church. I'll let you know how much it went for.(I kept the 10" for my Dad's birthday party).
