Photo credit: Wildi on Visualhunt.comHello everyone, I hope all is well with you. I’m back today after the Thanksgiving holiday. We had a great time getting together with family. It went by fast like all holidays do. Now, it’s time to get ready for Christmas. My favorite holiday. 😊
So in honor of my favorite holiday. I’m giving you a recipe for my boys’ favorite dessert. It’s called Lorna Doone Dessert, and the recipe is below.
Lorna Doone Dessert
1 package Lorna Doone cookies crushed
Add melted butter to cookies (this is the crust so add as much butter as you prefer; about ¼ to ½ of a stick)
1 7 oz Chocolate chips
2T Sugar
2-1/2 T water
4 egg yolks
1 teas. Vanilla
4 egg whites
Crush Lorna Doone cookies and add melted butter for the crust. Put crust in 10” baking dish and bake at 350 degrees until crust starts to brown. Combine chocolate chips, sugar, and water in double boiler until blended. Remove from fire and add egg yolks, beat after each one. Add vanilla. Chill for a short time maybe 10 to 15 minutes or until the pan is cool to the touch on the bottom.
Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into chocolate mixture. Spread over cooled cookie crust and top with whipped cream.
**I usually double this and put it in a 9×13 dish.
