    Take 4 Hershey bars (Regular or king size if you want it really chocolatey) and grind up the Hershey bars in a blender or food processor until it is powdered. Then replace the KoolAid with the chocolate. --- We call it the Chocolate Dream Cloud dessert. Otherwise it is pretty much the same recipe.

    Instead of coolaid, my mom used to make this with frozen concentrated limeade. The other difference is that you freeze it. It is like the texture of ice cream, and tastes a lot like key lime pie. It is so good, delicious and easy. Everyone I have served it to thought I spent a long time making it.

    Similar concept but made with angel food cake, ice cream and Jello:
    You slice off the bottom of the cake and hollow out a trench all around, (saving the pieces for later) then make Jello with ice cream in place of the cold water.
    Chill until it gets to the consistency of egg whites, then stir in the pieces of cake that you removed earlier and refill the hollowed out cake. Replace the bottom and chill till set.
    Once it is set, place a plate over the top(bottom) and flip it upright, then
    “Frost” with Cool Whip mixed with a packet of Kool Aide in a matching or complimentary flavor. I remember lime being pretty popular. Some even added a small can of crushed pineapple to the Jello mix. Very light and refreshing! Especially popular in the summer!

The only thing I would do different is mix the cool whip with 8oz. of softened cream cheese before adding the condensed milk and kool aid.

    It is strew meats and rice western sauce and soy sauce and mushrooms. You add stew meat and western sauce and soy sauce put in the refrigerator let sit over night and pull out cooked then wants is done cook the rice and add the ingredients in there slow little bit time and don't drain the soy sauce and western sauce out that gives flavor to it. Then add the mushrooms to it. 1/2 cup of soy sauce and 1/2 cup western sauce add together. Then enjoy supper it feed alot people. It very good.
