Dark Chocolate Stout Cake I have made this type of cake a few times and tried a few different recipes. So far this one is my favorite. It's moist, dark, rich and delicious! It's a nice treat for St. Patrick's Day, or any day you want a unique chocolaty dessert. The frosting has liqueur (Bailey's Irish Cream) in it, which is delicious but not the way to go if you're serving it to children. I'd go with vanilla whipped cream, in that case.

Okay people, I don’t usually bake like this but these semi-homemade cookies are so, so, so delicious! This is one of my most commonly requested cookies and I’m not ashamed that it’s super easy!  I have also tried these with peppermint patties but the Rolo™ candy seems made for this. Chocolate Caramel Rolo™ Cookies Ingredients: 1 box devil’s food cake mix 2 eggs ⅓ cup canola oil 30  Rolo™  candies ¼ cup powdered sugar, for dusting Directions: To make dough, mix together the cake mix, eggs, and oil.   Form cookies by shaping approximately 1 tablespoon of dough around each candy and rolling into balls (Make sure to completely cover each candy with dough). Place on ungreased baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.  Transfer to cooling rack, cool and then dust with powdered sugar.  Enjoy!
