Chocolate fried pies --- yum!!! Yep, here in SW Tennessee we enjoy all kinds of fried pies, but the chocolate ones are the favorite hereabouts.

As to breakfast - grits or white beans, country ham, eggs and french toast stuffed with cream and strawberries then sprinkled with confectioner's sugar.......

Now that I have gained a pound, off to the gym!!!

Sandwich_Chef do you have an actual recipe for the chocolate filling? I was just making a guess at what may have been included.

Do y'all think that chocolates will begin to be sold in heart shaped boxes year round? As for me, I keep a bag of chocolate M&Ms in my desk with a "hands off" note taped on just for emergencies! HA!

I have a banana smoothie for breakfast. I make 2 servings and pour one of the servings in a thermos for hubby to take to work.

Here's my recipe:

- 2 medium to large ripe bananas sliced in half inch thick slices, put in plastic bag and freeze at least overnight. Spread pieces out in bag so it is not a big lump and can be broken apart by hand when ready to use.

- In blender put 12 ounces orange juice, 12 ounces plain yogurt and the 2 frozen banana pieces.

- Whirl about 10-15 seconds until it looks like a thick shake.

That's it.

I've started my day like this for at least 10 years. 2nd course - a cup of coffee. hahahaha

Susan,
That sounds wonderful. I take the easy way and just shake my protein shake but I may try your recipe.

Here's a recipe that seemed to be similar to the ones I was talking about. I don't recommend using canned biscuits. I just don't like the taste.

Chocolate Fried Pies
1 can flaky biscuits
1/2 c. cocoa
Oil
1 c. sugar
1 stick butter

Combine sugar and cocoa; mix well. Roll out individual biscuits flat. Add 1 part butter and 1 or 2 tablespoons cocoa mixture. Fold over and seal edges. Brown in hot oil.

I've made these many times and they're very delicious!

Chocolate Fried Pies

1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. flour
1 T. cocoa
1/2 c. milk
2 T. butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2 c. packaged biscuit mix (like Bisquick)
1/3 c. milk

Filling:
Combine sugar, flour and cocoa in a small saucepan. Stir in the 1/2 c. milk and butter. Cook and stir until bubbling; cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir in vanilla. Cool.

DOUGH:
In a small bowl, stir together the biscuit mix and the 1/3 c. milk. On a floured surface roll the dough to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut 10 (4-inch) circles. Place about 1 Tablespoon filling in center of each circle. Fold over; press edges together with a fork. (You may have to brush a little water or egg white around the edges to make it stick)

In a skillet, heat 1 inch of cooking oil to 375 degrees F. Fry pies several at a time 2 minutes per side or until golden. Cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

YIELD: 10 pies

Thank you and I never heard of 'em. My hubby is from the south and never had these either. So glad you posted this recipe as I am having company in a few weeks and want to try these. Have a great day
