I must say Sunday’s Vikings game was difficult to watch! Maybe next year? The weather is kind of a downer too. Well, at least we have a fresh layer of snow to make the landscape look clean and fresh.
Today’s recipe comes from a 200 page cook book entitled Chocolate Mousse, all chocolate recipes. I think I could gain weight just reading them! I am sharing a gluten free dessert that I made last week from this luscious book! Chocolate-Nut Angel Pie Meringue Crust 1/2 cup sugar 1/8 tsp. cream of tartar 2 egg whites 1/2 cup chopped pecans Sift sugar and cream of tartar. Beat egg whites until stiff. Add sifted sugar gradually to the egg whites, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until the meringue is quite stiff and no sugar crystals are present. Fold in nuts. Pour into well greased 9-inch pie plate, forming a crust. Bake in slow oven at 275 degrees for 1 hour or until delicately browned. Cool thoroughly. Chocolate Filling 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 3 Tablespoons hot water 1 tsp. vanilla 1 cup heavy cream Melt chocolate chips with water in microwave, I start out for 1 minute, then stir and put in a little longer until melted. Stir smooth, cool slightly and add vanilla. Whip cream and fold it into chocolate. Pour into meringue shell and chill 2-3 hours. Stay warm and safe and have a good week!

The Viking's game was really heartbreaking. Maybe it's not their year today and God has prepared something for them over the next few years. I'm always optimistic for this team, because I've supported them ever since. On the other hand, I really enjoy your delicious recipes. I'll be sure to try them out and buy the ingredients as soon as possible.
