I HEART Dessert: Ritz Bliss

You should stop what you're doing right now and make this recipe.

Unless you are:
driving
working
at a wedding
nursing your child
in church

if so, you should just wait til things are finished and THEN go and make this. It's so easy and super delicious. What more do you need?

Here are the main ingredients:

52 Ritz crackers (don't ask me why 52)
1 1/2 cups of chopped walnuts
6 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla
1 1/2 cups of sugar
Hershey's with Almonds bar
a BIG tub of Cool Whip (I'm not sure why it's not pictured, but trust me - you need cool whip)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lets begin.

Throw all 52 crackers in a bag and crush. I like using a can of Kidney Beans to do the job.
I usually have cans of kidney beans on hand because I like making Chili. A lot. Just thought you might like to know.
THAT delicious recipe coming soon.

After you crush the crackers (sounds like an old punk rock song. "And now the Red Kidney Beans will sing their number 1 hit: Crush The Crackers!!!" ...and the crowd goes wild), pour into a large bowl and set aside.

Chop the walnuts until you have about 1 1/2 cups. Mix together with the crushed crackers.

Beat 6 egg WHITES until fluffy.

Bingo.

 Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla and 1 1/2 cups of sugar to the egg whites and mix - making a meringue.




Add the ritz/walnut mix to the meringue and pour in a greased 9 by 9 inch dish. Bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees. (I know it looks a little strange, perhaps naked - like it's missing something, but we're not finished yet. And, trust me, it's gooooood).

Let it cool, cover with Cool Whip, and sprinkle with a ground up five ounce Hershey's with Almonds chocolate bar.

I love chocolate, yes I do. I love chocolate, how 'bout you?

Share with friends and family...
or just eat the whole thing all by yourself!
I won't judge.
