As you can already probably tell on my blog, I love bits of chocolate during the day. When my roommates were talking about our favorite desserts, Rachel brought up chocolate lasagna. I’ve had it before and wanted to make it again that day. This is definitely for a person with a sweet tooth. The theme of this blog are recipes for a fast-paced lifestyle, but this one is a little different. This dessert is more for groups, just because of the quantity. Even so, it will still be delicious! It is even great for a party and something great to bring over to your friends house. Trust me, they’ll thank you.
36 crushed Oreos
6 tablespoons of melted butter
8 oz. of softened cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cold milk
12 oz. Cool Whip
2 packages of chocolate instant pudding
3 cups cold milk
1 cup mini chocolate chips
In a 9×13 pan, butter the sides so the lasagna does not stick. Then crush all of the Oreos and combine with melted butter, lay and press on bottom of pan. Next, in a bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, sugar, and milk; layer that on top of Oreos. Next, whisk together cold milk and instant chocolate pudding, cool, then place on top of Oreos and cream cheese mixture. Once everything is set, spread Cool Whip on top and sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top. Once all layered, cut and serve!!

Sometimes we all get sick of eating the same old foods. Each day, I find myself eating the same sandwich, apples, oranges, and vegetables.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, which is what I’ve always been told. I never believed that until this year. Up until this past September, I never took my breakfast seriously. Until I started doing it, I never realized how much energy you gained in the morning from filling your stomach! I love a quick and easy breakfast in the morning, which brings me to this recipe. My favorite breakfast of all time, CINNAMON FRENCH TOAST! Super simple to prepare, make, and it’s gone in no time.
2 eggs, scrambled
1/4 cup white milk
Honey wheat bread (or whatever you prefer)
Cinnamon
Cooking spray
In a mixing bowl, whip the eggs, pour milk in bowl, and add a desired amount of cinnamon (sparingly). Spray the pan with cooking spray and heat on the stovetop on medium. When pan is on medium heat, dunk a slice of bread in the egg and milk mixture, and put in pan. Flip when you see a golden brown (should not take long). When french toast is done cooking, spread on a little butter and drizzle maple syrup on top. In minutes, you’ll have a warm and filling breakfast!!
