    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

1 package (4-ounce) regular chocolate pudding mix

1 3/4 cups milk

1/4 cup maraschino cherry juice

1 package (18- to 20-ounce) chocolate cake mix

1 cup maraschino cherries, chopped

1 package semi-sweet chocolate pieces

1 cup chopped nuts


Cook pudding with milk and cherry juice according to package directions.

Blend with cake mix (as it comes from the package) and cherries. Spread in a buttered jelly roll pan.

Sprinkle with chocolate chips and nuts.

Bake @ 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Cool and cut into bars or squares.
 
mmm fresh out of the oven! (I skipped the nuts though)
Made for company potluck, I hope they like 'em!

thank you so much for posting this recipe Donna! The bars were a big hit!

Our office is only about 30 people but after the party there were only 3 little pieces left which is pretty impressive considering I also made lemon bars, peppermint bark and chocolate butterscotch cookies. One coworker described these as 'chocolate marshmallows'

nope, if they did, you wouldn't be able to make chocolate chip cookies
;)

I used the microwave to melt milk and white chocolate chips to make the peppermint bark though, so they do melt, but it has to be a very high heat.
