This is a recipe I ran across one day and have loved forever since then!!  It was in the New York Times and it's fabulous!
Crispy Onions
Start with at least a medium onion per person; slice it. Put a splash of oil – doesn’t have to be olive – in a pan. Turn heat medium-high so the onions sizzle when they get in there; salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown. Lower the heat a bit, but not much. Cook, stirring more frequently, until they are really quite shriveled and dry. Then cook a little more — until black spots begin to appear. Then stop. Total time, around 15 minutes, maybe 20.
Salt them a little more if you like and serve on top of anything

Super Duper Yumminess!!

OREO TRUFFLES
1 package Oreos (NOT double stuf!)
1 8oz. package cream cheese
2 8oz. packages semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted

Keep out about 6 Oreos to crush and sprinkle on top of the finished truffles.  Beat the cream cheese until fluffy.  Add finely crushed Oreo cookies, mixing well.  Form into 1" balls and dip into melted chocolate.  Sprinkle with leftover crumbs.  Refrigerate for 1 hour before enjoying.  Store leftovers in the refrigerator.  
Some people in their reviews on the website said that their truffle balls crumbled when they dipped them.  I used two forks to lift the truffles out of the chocolate and I had no problems! I also used a double boiler so my chocolate could continue to stay very liquid-y.  Another reviewer suggested using other sandwich creme cookies, including Nutter Butter!  Now, honestly, how bad could THAT be?!?!  Well, other than what it would do to my scale!!
Oh, and I also sprinkled them with my Chocolate/Coffee/Sugar from Trader Joe's -- it comes in a grinder!!
