Chicken Enchiladas

I love making these!  They are pretty easy and quite tasty!

16 oz sour cream
2 cans of Cream of Chicken Soup
1 small can of diced green chilies 
2 cups of grated cheese (1 cup used to sprinkle on top)
8-10 cooked chicken tenderloins or rotisserie chicken from the grocery store
1 small can of sliced olives (if you prefer)
Tortillas

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Cook chicken (I usually boil the chicken or buy the already cooked rotisserie chicken from the store). Mix sour cream, Cream of Chicken soup, diced green chilies and 1 cup of grated cheese together.  Split the mixture into two bowls.  In one bowl, shred the cooked chicken and mix in with the mixture.  Scoop some of the mixture (with the chicken) into each tortilla and roll like a burrito and place in a 9 x13 glass pan.  Once all enchiladas are made, spread the mixture that was in the 2nd bowl over the tortillas.  Make sure to get all the corners and creases!  Sprinkle the cup of grated cheese over the top and olives if you would like.  Cook for 35 minutes.

Warm Chocolate Melting Cake

If you have been on a Carnival Cruise before then you may be fond of this little dessert on their menu.  I know me, Brynn, and Jenny each devoured one every night of our cruise.  I still think about this dessert.  In fact, I made it last Valentines for Josh and I and it did not disappoint.  You guys, the middle is melted! (!!!)

8 oz. semisweet chocolate
1 c. butter
7 eggs
6 T. sugar
1/2 c. flour

Preheat the oven to 375F. Melt chocolate and butter together; cool to room temperature.

In a separate bowl, whisk 4 eggs with sugar. Add flour and mix. Add remaining 3 eggs. Add egg mixture to chocolate/butter mixture and pour into six 8-oz. ramekins coated with nonstick spray.

Bake until top of cake is just set and inside is still melted - about 10 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with vanilla ice cream!
