Here's a delicious chocolate and ice cream dessert that was posted in the cooking forums by shannone on September 3, 2006.

It's basically a chocolate ice cream pie in a crust of rice cristpies that have been coated in a chocolate syrup mix.

You can find the complete recipe in the original post under desserts/pies: Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Pie.

This is a great recipe because of the contrasts between the ice cream smoothness and the dark chocolate flavor.

Oh, another contrast in this dessert that is excellent is the creamy smooth chocolate ice cream on top of the chocolate covered rice krispies crust:

btw - I think this would make an excellent parfait as well - I've got those parfait glasses with covers from Tupperware from years ago and this would be nice for individual parfaits served with a dollop of whipped cream and chocolate chips, jimmes or nuts on top!

Slow Cooker Chili Recipes - The Easiest Way To Spice Up Your Cooking

Slow cooker chili recipes are one of the easiest ways to enjoy the benefits of spicy fresh food cooked using a variety of spices.

Many amateur chefs or home cooks are scared by the prospect of cooking spicy food. Such cuisine is often perceived to be the domain of professionals or cooks that have grown up in regions famous for spicy foods such as Asia or south America. This could not be further from the truth.

Spices such as chili, turmeric, garam masala, all spice and cumin offer a very simple way for the inexperienced or amateur cook to liven up an otherwise bland dish. Take for example a tin of chopped tomatoes: place them in a pan with some garlic, fresh chili and some cumin and you immediately have a lively sauce that could form the base to many Indian dishes.

So assuming chili peppers and other spices offer the cook a simple way to liven up simple cooking, adding a slow cooker simplifies the process of putting dishes together such that the chef can focus more on flavour combinations and taste rather than cooking methodologies.

Using a slow cooker chili recipe simply involves choosing a nice selection of base ingredients that can be used in most dishes; chili peppers, potatoes, carrots, courgettes, onions, garlic. In addition the cook can then add other more specific ingredients such as chicken, beef, red or white wine, fish, liver etc. Once these two elements have been combined and are cooking slowly the chef has little to worry about.

Slow cookers therefore remove the need to be concerned about timings, browning onions, searing, crisping etc and instead let the chef free to concentrate on the 3rd element to a successful slow cooker chili recipe; spices. Once the first two elements are cooking, you should taste and experiment by adding different varieties of chili, turmeric or other spices and herbs in order to perfect the blend of flavours in your dish.
