Just thought I'd give you all a heads up about some recipes that don't work.
- Improvised Muddy Buddies -
1 box of Crispix
1/2 cup of Butter
something close to a cup of chocolate chips, possibly semi-sweet but there might be some milk or dark mixed in there.
1/2 cup of Peanut Butter
1 teas. vanilla
1 1/2 cups of Powdered Sugar
Pour the Crispix into a bowl only just big enough to contain it all without spilling.
Microwave butter, chocolate chips and peanut butter for 1 1/2 minutes, then realize that the original muddy buddies recipe only calls for 1/4 cup of butter. Try to pour out the extra melted butter and add more chocolate chips because you're not sure you put in a whole cup in the first place. Add vanilla. Microwave continually until it smells scorched.
Pour mixture over cereal, stirring as much as possible, spilling handfuls because you didn't pick a big enough bowl in the first place. Eventually give up, leaving huge conglomerate chunks of weird chocolate and cereal mixture. Pour the mixture into a plastic grocery bag because you don't have any quart size ziplocs.
Discover that you are out of powdered sugar... Scramble around for something similar in density and sweetness...not cocoa...not granulated sugar...not cinnamon...Hot Cocoa Powder! Find a half empty Stephens Chocolate Raspberry Cocoa tin and pour it in the grocery bag then shake until well coated. After pouring it all back into the bowl sprinkle some granulated sugar on top hoping that it will get rid of the bitter aftertaste.
Don't Enjoy!

Hahaha!!! I love it! Reminds me of spaghetti tacos!
That's truly disgusting. It's a good thing I couldn't make it down tonight (and I tried so hard!) because you probably would have served this to me and I would have been fakely nice about it. But you would have seen through me. But I would have kept eating partially because I have no will power to stop myself from doing stupid things and partially because I would have tried to prove that I wasn't just faking it. All in all it would have been an exhausting charade (which I just pronounced in my head -sharahd-)
very good description, you should write a book of failed recipes.
that sounds delicious and almost tempting to make. i had one of those moments, where i was talking to someone and then looked down only realizing I had no idea how much flour I put in the dough, so I kept adding in stuff and it kept getting worse. then thinking it would be good crumbled over brownies, because brownies are always good, and then ended up with a 9X13 pan over flowing with desert disaster!!
brilliant use of cocoa powder! Don't worry, if you ever serve it to me, I won't enjoy it. . . like you said.
I'm glad this is only Part the First.
yeah, I can actually think of two other possible "Recipes that Don't work" from the past 3 days...
I'm a good chef.
My husband won't let me make any new recipes when we have company. I, on the other hand, can definitely appreciate the improvised Muddy Buddies.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I once made myself a plate of egg noodles, grilled chicken, and liberally drizzled over with Brianna's creamy poppy seed dressing. It was just as gross as you can possibly imagine.
