It’s been awhile since I’ve posted one of my culinary creations. The dining hall at Niagara University used to make this dessert called a Magic Cookie Bar, which I used to consume at a ridiculous rate whenever it was out. Recently I decided to make it at home. There is a lot of room for variety in this recipe. Change the type of chips you use, add nuts, add coconut, whatever you like. Personally, I don’t like coconut so I opted not to include it.

Baked Mac And Cheese
I decided I needed a break from the real estate writing for a day, so I’m posting my baked mac and cheese recipe. I modified a recipe that I found online at Food Net*work, to better suit my needs. This yields 8 servings, easily, and probably more if you are serving it as a side dish along with something else.
Mac & Cheese:
* 2 cups elbow macaroni
* 3 tablespoons butter
* 3 tablespoons flour
* 1 tablespoon powdered mustard
* 3 cups milk
* 1/2 tbsp onion salt
* 1/2 tbsp paprika
* 1 large egg
* 14 ounces sharp cheddar, shredded
* Fresh black pepper
Topping:
* 3 tablespoons butter
* 1/2 cup bread crumbs

I’m deviating from my normal posts about real estate and technology to bring you a recipe that was shared with me by another agent in my office. Ashley, our office manager (and newest agent – congrats!) was raving about these truffles that she made this past weekend, and I finally broke down and made some last ngiht.
Needless to say, these are delicious – but beware – they are also very very rich.
What you need:
1 package of Oreo cookies (original regular stuff is fine, but feel free to choose other flavors if you want!)
1 8oz package of cream cheese (softened)
1 bag of chocolate chips – I used a chocolate and peanut butter chip mix for mine
Firehouse Chili Recipe
Yesterday, my roommate David and I made some Firehouse Chili, which turned out pretty fantastic. I’m warning you ahead of time, this is a SPICY chili. Plan accordingly. i went through 2 tall glasses of milk while eating my bowls. You’ll want to do this recipe in a crock pot, for that full day simmering spice of death effect.
