Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake Trifle

Heaven! Okay, so I LoVe Trifles and I love trying out different combinations. You really can't go wrong with creating your own. You will be seeing many more Trifle recipes. But for now here is one of my favorite Trifle creations!

Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake Trifle

by Lindsey

1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix

2-3 oz boxes Cheesecake Instant Jello Pudding

Cool Whip

Raspberries

1. Prepare the cake as directed on the box and bake
2. Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes and then remove from the pan and let cool completely
3. While cake is cooling prepare pudding as directed on the box and refrigerate
4. Trim edges from cooled cake and then cut cake into medium to large cubes (whatever size you prefer)
5. Start layering: cake, pudding, raspberries until you get to your final layer, then you will do: cake, pudding, cool whip and top with raspberries

Helpful Hints:

* You can use any chocolate cake mix

* When you start layering.....

Cake- you will want a good full

layer of cake. Number of cubes

will vary depending on the size.

Press slightly to compress

cake layer.

Pudding- Spoon pudding on top of cake

Approx. 2 cups. You don't want

to drowned the cake in pudding

but you do want enough to

allow it to run

a little between pieces

Enjoy!

Caramel French Toast

Need I say more? Here you go:

Overnight Caramel French Toast

2 tbsp. light corn syrup

1/2 c. butter

1 c. brown sugar (packed)

6-12 slices bread

5 eggs

1 1/2 c. milk

1 tsp. vanilla

In small saucepan combine corn syrup, butter, and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat until thickened, stirring constantly. Pour this mixture over bottom of 13 x 9-inch pan. Lay 6 slices of bread over sugar mixture. Mix eggs, milk and vanilla in medium bowl. Pour part of egg mixture over bread. Then layer remaining 6 slices on top. Pour remaining egg mixture over all. Cover pan and refrigerate overnight.

Bake in 350 degree oven for 45 minutes (uncovered.) Serve immediately.

Helpful Hints:

*I used Texas toast and only did one layer(6 pieces).

*If you only do one layer reduce eggs to 3. When pouring egg mixture over bread if it seems like too much it probably is! I just poured it all on, the whole time thinking it was too much and in the end it was. It was almost like custard because it was too much egg. You just want the bread lightly coated in egg.

Crispy Bacon Parmesan Ranch Chicken

Is that title long enough for you? Well, let's kick this thing off with a simple yet delish recipe! This one is PERFECT....it is everything it's title says it is :) Here you go:

Crispy Bacon Parmesan Ranch Chicken

by Angel Shannon

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (tenders if you prefer)
• 1 (16 oz) bottle Peppercorn Ranch dressing
• 1 cup Italian Bread Crumbs
• 1 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
• ½ lb. bacon, fried crispy and crumbled

Pour dressing into shallow pan or pie plate; set aside. In a medium bowl mix bread crumbs, cheese and bacon together. Dip cleaned and dried chicken into dressing then coat with bread crumb mixture. Place prepared chicken in sprayed or lined 9x13-in pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until juices run clear. Serve with buttery herb angel hair pasta! This recipe doubles easily.

I saw this recipe on one of my local morning shows, Good Things Utah. I knew immediately I needed to try it! It is DeLiSh and easy peasy. I think this would be a perfect dish to impress guests with because it is SOOO good and easy to prepare!

Helpful Hints:

* I already had Plain Bread Crumbs so I used those instead of Italian and just used a pinch of Tony Chachere's seasoning.

* I also used the Walmart Brand Italian Cheese blend instead of just using grated Parmesan Cheese to add some flavor to my Plain Bread Crumbs

* When placing chicken in your pan be sure to space them just enough so they are not touching. When you are ready to serve if they are touching the breading will get pulled off.

* I served the chicken with the Pasta Roni Angel Hair Pasta with Herbs but I also think it would be good over rice.

Enjoy!
