Fish and Chocolate

Made ya look, didn't I?

No, the recipe today doesn't include fish, but it definitely includes plenty of chocolate.

First up, though, is my project I finished this past week, Fish Hat (Dead or Alive)

I turned it in to Defense Against the Dark Arts for my disguise as the wonderful FairIsleFish. It's made from an assortment of worsted weight leftovers (and I think it looks kind of cool).

Next up is my recipe for the week. I think I should probably just make this into my Bisquick recipe of the week.

Doesn't that look appetizing? Yum!

Anyway, onto the recipe!

Frosted Chocolate Chip Brownie Cookies:
Ingredients:
Cookies:
1 Cup Bisquick mix
3/4 Cup granulated sugar
1/2 Cup chocolate chips
1/2 Cup baking cocoa
1/2 Cup vanilla yogurt
1 egg

Frosting:
1/4 Cup baking cocoa
2 Tbsp shortening (again, butter is fine as well)
2 Cups powdered sugar
3-4 Tbsp milk

Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line cookie sheet with foil.

In mixing bowl, combine all ingredients for cookies, and mix until well blended.
Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls about 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. I managed to get 10 cookies per sheet.
Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until set. Look for them to spread a bit, but don't bake too long because the color really doesn't change. Allow to cool completely (about 30 minutes).
Mix frosting ingredients besides milk in a separate bowl. Add milk one Tbsp at a time until it's a good consistency.
Spread frosting on cooled cookies.
Eat (not all at once, though!) with a nice glass of milk.

That's all! See ya next week!
