Frozen Hot Chocolate



* 6 pieces (1/2-ounce) chocolate

* 2 Tsp hot chocolate mix

* 1 1/2 tbsp sugar

* 1 1/2 cups milk

* 3 cups ice

* Whipped cream

* Chocolate shavings


Simmer chocolate pieces over a double boiler, till smooth then add hot chocolate mix and sugar. Once complete melted and mixed remove from heat slowly add 1/2 cup milk and cool to room temperature.

Chicken Pillows


2 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 8oz cream cheese
3 green onions chopped
1/4 cup celery chopped fine
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/8 teaspoon salt, pepper, garlic powder

1 package of crescent rolls

Mix the items listed above in bowl, and spoon 2 TBS into each crescent roll.

Bake at 350 degrees for 13-16 minutes till golden brown.

If you find the triangle hard to work with you can make larger ones buy using two rolls, in a rectangle shape folded in half. Just add twice the amount of filling since you are using two rolls.

Eat with chicken gravy on top. (Can of Cream of Chicken soup, thinned down with a little bit of milk)

**Dana Variations: Cut cream cheese in ½. Actually – cut entire filling in ½. Would need 2 packages of crescent rolls for full recipe.
