Cranberry Sauce
INGREDIENTS
12 ounces cranberries
1 cup white sugar
1 cup orange juice
DIRECTIONS
In a medium sized saucepan over medium heat, dissolve the sugar in the orange juice. Stir in the cranberries and cook until the cranberries start to pop (about 10 minutes). Remove from heat and place sauce in a bowl. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.
Tastes like cranberry juice only thicker and it has texture. Great for thanksgiving or Christmas. I like it a lot and it is the simplest of all these recipes and yet doesnt taste simple at all because cranberrys have a very rich flavor and are great for all kind of dishes. This one is bulletproof, almost impossible to screw up. I like with turkey or pork chops. Great sauce is all i can say to sum it up.

Fried banana dessert
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/3 cup whipping cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup Cointreau or triple sec
1 tablespoon butter
6 bananas, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 cup toasted sliced almonds
DIRECTIONS
Place chocolate chips, cream, and vanilla extract into a small saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until the chocolate chips have melted. Stir in the Cointreau and set aside.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bananas, cut-side down, and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn bananas over, and continue cooking until golden brown on the other side, 3 to 4 minutes more.
To serve, ladle some of the sauce onto the center of 6 plates.
This recipe is alchoholic or aleast the chocolate sauce is. I made this recipe once but the recipe does not call for enough butter so were a little on blackside. Also it calls for a large pan which still wont fit 6 bananas and is better with Cointreau than triple sec, and the sauce was very thin. Other than that recipe is good and will yeild plenty so is a great appetizer or dessert for a big group of people. The flavor is strong and yet it might be better with plantains.
