1/2 t salt
2 oz unsweetened chocolate
1/4 c butter, melted
1 c sugar
1 egg
1 t vanilla extract

1/4 c chopped mixed nuts (optional)
1/3 c milk chocolate chips
1/3 c miniature marshmallows
1/4 c coconut flakes

Preheat oven to 350 and spray a 9" pie plate with cooking spray. Combine flour and salt. Melt chocolate in a double boiler over hot water. Remove from heat and mix in butter and sugar.

Add egg and vanilla to chocolate mixture in pan; mix until smooth. Stir flour mixture into chocolate mixture.

Spread batter in prepared pie plate. Bake until set (about 15 minutes).

For topping mix the topping stuff in a bowl. Sprinkle over brownie layer. Bake for 10 minutes or until pizza pulls away from pan. Cool before cutting.

K-so-dee-ahs

This is so simple... Ready?

Here's your grocery list...and yes, you can write it using lipstick and paper towel - after all...this is my quick, rednek version:

Boneless, skinless chicken breast
Cheddar cheese soup
Taco sauce
10 flour tortillas
Shredded cheddar

When you get home, put your chicken in a pot that you melted some butter in (or a skillet depending on how much you are making). Add what ever seasonings you want. Cook the chicken until it is done and chop it up. Add the soup (do not dilute it) and about half a cup (less if you want) of taco sauce. Mix it all up. Oh yeah, by now this should not be on hot stove.

Heat your oven to 350 and get your cookie sheet out...a cake pan works too. Warm up your tortillas by wrapping them in paper towel and microwaving them for a few seconds.

Add some of the chicken and cheese soup mix to a tortilla, add cheese, fold in half, and seal with a little water. Put it on the cookie sheet. Repeat until your cookie sheet is full. Bake them until the cheese is melted.

There you go.

Hi Yall

Welcome to The White Trash Cafe. This blog is a spin-off from PRACTiCAL CHiCK AtomiK Kitten, and will host all of the Rednek Kwiz-ine currently over there plus new recipes.

In a nutshell, we live in a trailer in Oklahoma and we live in a trailer park. Since my trailer is fairly nice inside and the kitchen has new appliances (and because no one in my house ever wants to eat the same thing) and since I love cookbooks - we've christened my kitchen as The White Trash Cafe.
