Cow Pie Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, cocoa, milk, and vanilla. Bring to a slow boil and simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from the heat.
• Stir in the peanut butter and 2 1/2 cups oats. The mixture should be thick; stir in additional 1/2 cup oats if too runny. Let the mixture stand for about 10 minutes to cool.
• Line a baking sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. Drop the mixture by heaping tablespoonful onto the lined sheet. Let the cookies stand at room temperature for 1 hour to firm up. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using a mixer, cream the sugar and butter until fluffy, scraping the sides once. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition. Mix in the vanilla.
• Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a bowl, then add in batches to the mixer, mixing until just combined after each addition. Gently mix in the semisweet, milk and white chocolate chips.
• Using a cookie scoop, add generous 1-tablespoon portions of dough to a baking sheet (about 12 portions). Repeat with the remaining dough and additional baking sheets. Dot the top of each cookie with 2 to 3 chocolate chips if you'd like them to really show up on top. Bake until the cookies are barely done and are still soft and chewy, 9 to 11 minutes. Don't overbake! Let cool on a baking rack.
• Melt the semisweet chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water.
• Dip the cookies one by one into the melted chocolate to coat, then transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets to set.

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese & sour cream together until smooth. Spread on a large platter. Sprinkle 1/2 of the package of taco seasoning mix over top. Take crumbled cooked ground beef and sprinkle over top of cream cheese layer. Take chopped vegetables and mix in bowl. Layer over beef. Sprinkle rest of taco seasoning mix over top. Layer chedder cheese next. Then 1 tablespoon of sour cream in middle of top. Sprinkle with black olives. Chill at least 1/2 hour. Serve with chips for dipping.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large sauce pan, add milk, sugar and cocoa powder. Bring to medium boil and boil for 1 minute. Any longer and the sauce will harden too much when cookies set. Any shorter and the cookies may not harden enough.
• Remove from heat and add rolled oats and coconut. (I usually premix the coconut and oats). Mix well with wooden spoon and drop onto parchment or wax paper. You decide on the size of cookies you want. These cookies take about a 1/2 day to a day to set depending on the size.

Steps:

• Melt the chocolate and shortening together over medium-low heat. Stir until smooth. Remove the mixture from heat and stir in raisins and nuts. Drop cookies by tablespoon onto waxed paper. Chill and serve.

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan or microwave, melt the chocolate chips and shortening over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from the heat; stir in raisins and almonds. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Chill until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a double boiler over simmering water, melt the chocolate chips and shortening, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in raisins, almonds and coconut, mixing well.
• Drop by tablespoonfuls onto a foil, waxed paper or plastic wrap lined baking sheet. Chill until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a large bowl, whisk the sugar, buttermilk, oil, egg, and vanilla together until smooth. In a medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa and baking soda together and add to the buttermilk mixture, stir until the ingredients are just combined. Be careful not to overework the batter, If there are lumps, they will disappear during baking baking. The less you work the batter, the more tender the pies will be.
• Fill 6 nonstick muffin top cups with the batter. Bake for 10 minutes in the center of the oven. To prevent the pies from getting soggy after baking, remove the cooked muffins from their cups and cool them on a rack. Serve warm.
