Coating the fingers with breadcrumbs and then frying at 375 degrees resulted in burned breading. I baked the first batch for 7 minutes, the second for 6 minutes, and the third for 5 minutes trying to avoid burning the breading, but every single one was burned. I was trying to make my own chicken fingers to avoid buying the overpriced Schwans tenders, but there is no way that my 2 year old will eat these.

This is now known among our friends as "The Dessert". Before every party, I'm asked if I'm bringing "The Dessert". It is so good! I use the brownie mixes that have some sort of chunk in them (ie. triple chocolate chunk brownies, chocolate peanut butter cup). I also whip up one cup of heavy whipping cream and add that to the condensed milk/water/pudding mix instead of using cool whip. I think this helps to make sure the sweetness isn't overdone. And for the cool whip layer, I use French Vanilla flavor instead of plain, because it gives the whole dish more flavor. You have GOT to try this, and try it my way because like I said, it's getting quite a cult following!

This ice cream is FANTASTIC! It was my very first attempt at making homemade ice cream, and I decided to try it because my husband loves rocky road. I followed the recipe exactly, and the end result is so creamy and yummy, it's amazing. I'd say it's on par with anything you can get in the store (think Edy's, Breyers, etc). I bought a package of chopped pecans, and also put in 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips. I have to say it again, it's SO GOOD, this isn't going to last long in our house!
