Cinnamon
Sugar
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine Cinnamon and Sugar and mix it together, set it aside. Coat grands in butter then dip them in the cinnamon sugar mix on both sides. Place on a greased baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 14 minutes.
Hash-Brown Casserole
Start out by adding 1 – 32 ounce bag of hash-browns to a large mixing bowl.
Next add 2 – 10 3/4 ounce cans of cream of potato soup.
Followed by 16 ounces of sour cream.
Now comes the cheesy part. Toss in 2 cups of sharp cheddar cheese.
And 1 cup of fresh grated parmesan cheese.
Next add a good-sized pinch of salt and pepper, and that’s it. Mix it until combined.
Put the mixture into a buttered Pyrex. Don’t smooth out the surface, you want it to be messy and a little jagged on top. All those peaks will brown and get crunchy.
Run this wonderful concoction into a pre-heated oven at 350′ for 1 hour

2 Ingredient Punch (Mock Champagne Punch)
1 (2 quart) bottle white grape juice (any brand)
1 -2 liter ginger ale (i use canada dry diet ginger ale, you can't tell it's Diet)
(optional garnish: raspberries (optional), blackberry (optional), strawberry, cut in half with the green stem still attached (optional), blueberries (optional)
Directions:
1. Place white grape juice and ginger-ale in refrigerator overnight or until well chilled. Placing them in the freezer for a couple of hours before serving will make them 'icy' and everyones favorite.
2. In a serving picture or punch bowl, pour equal parts white grape juice and ginger-ale. Stir gently. Fill each glass, and if you want garnish with frozen fruit.
3. Optional Garnish: On a lined cookie sheet, place the fruit(s) in a single layer but not touching, into the freezer for several hours until frozen (or overnight). After they are completely frozen, they can be bagged together as long as they stay in the freezer so they don't stick together. Then use one of each fruit to garnish each glass. It is beautiful and also keeps it colder longer and doesn't water down the flavor.
Banana Bites
- Use firm bananas and cut into 1 inch sections. Leave the peel on for easy handling, and with a melon baller, dig a well in the middle of each banana section.
- Melt chocolate in the microwave and dip the bottom portion of the banana in chocolate and then dip it once again in either non-pareils or chopped peanuts. To quickly harden the chocolate, place dipped bananas in the freezer for five minutes.
- Fill each well with ice cream (I filled mine with vanilla chocolate chip) and top with whip cream and a maraschino cherry.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel Bars
Makes 9 medium or 16 small bars
To make the pretzel crumbs, pulse pretzels in a food processor until the largest pieces are about pea-sized. I used almost half a bag of Snyder’s “Snaps” to get 1 1/2 cups of crumbs.
Peanut Butter Base Ingredients
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups pretzel crumbs, fine
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups pretzel crumbs, fine
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
Chocolate Ganache Ingredients
1 heaping cup semisweet chocolate chips, such as Ghirardelli 60% chocolate chips
1/3 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup heavy cream
Directions
Line 8×8 pan with foil. Spray with baking spray.
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt peanut butter and butter together in microwave (about 1 minute on HIGH). Stir in pretzel crumbs, confectioners’ sugar and salt. Spread evenly into prepared pan and refrigerate at least 10 minutes.
In a small saucepan or microwave-safe container, heat heavy cream to near boiling (1-2 minutes on HIGH, depending on your microwave). Pour over chocolate chips. Let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until chocolate is melted and smooth. (If needed, microwave on DEFROST 10 seconds at a time to finish melting.) Pour chocolate over chilled peanut butter base. Chill.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before cutting. Lift foil to remove from pan, then slice into bars with a pizza cutter. Store in refrigerator.
Make Your Own Play-Doh Recipe
Don’t want to cook your playdough on the stove? Use a microwave!
1 cup of water
1 cup of flour
2 teaspoon of cream of tartar
1 tablespoon of cooking oil
1/2 cup of salt
Food coloring
1 cup of flour
2 teaspoon of cream of tartar
1 tablespoon of cooking oil
1/2 cup of salt
Food coloring
Mix all of the ingredients, except for the food color. Microwave it for about one minute and stir. Cook for about 30 more seconds. Keep repeating until the playdough is dough-ish. Knead the playdough and place the food coloring in. Its that simple!
Cookie Dough Truffles
1/2 cup softened salted butter
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 (14oz) can of sweetened condensed milk
2 1/4 C flour
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
So easy:
combine (in a bowl,) the butter, sugar,vanilla,and sweetened condensed milk. Add the flour and chocolate chips.
Now, you may be able to form this into balls at this point. I however, could not- I think it’s the summertime in Florida problem. That’s why we have refrigerators. Chill your dough if you need to. Maybe a half hour. Roll into walnut sized balls. Place balls in the freezer for 2hrs.
Melt 12 oz chocolate chips with 1 tbs shortening or butter. To melt, place in a microwave at 25 second intervals, stirring between each. Be careful- overheated chocolate can seize up. Just get it till it’s starting to melt and stir away, the chocolate will continue to melt and smooth out. My little tip. I have ruined a lot of chocolate in my days.
Now, you can dip the balls using a spoon- or fill pastry bags with the melted chocolate and drizzle. You don’t have pastry bags? Okay, in this instance a plastic bag should work. But, next time you see some of those disposable pastry bags…get them. They are so worth it. So, drizzle or dip and store these babies in the fridge.

Chewy Peanut Butter Bars
About 48 HERSHEY'S KISSES Brand Milk Chocolates
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk)
3/4 cup REESE'S Creamy Peanut Butter
2 cups all-purpose biscuit baking mix
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
About 1/4 cup sugar
Heat oven to 375°F. Remove wrappers from chocolates. Beat sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter in large bowl until smooth. Add baking mix and vanilla; blend well. Shape into 1-inch balls; roll in sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 6 to 8 minutes or until very lightly browned (do not overbake). Remove from oven; immediately press chocolate piece in center of each ball. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Store in tightly covered container. About 48 cookies.
This is super easy to make and cheap! You could make your own dough, but I prefer the shortcut of using Rhodes rise and bake dough. This is one of my favorite shortcuts to make a nice loaf of bread or use in recipes like this one.
As I said, this is extremely basic. All you need is one Rhodes loaf (or however many you prefer), ground beef (if you’re baking one loaf it won’t hold any more than 1/2-3/4 lb), pepperoni, pizza sauce and your choice of cheese.
The dough takes a few hours to rise, so I take it out in the morning and place a towel over it. Once it has risen, you spray a cookie sheet and press out the dough into a large rectangle.
If you are in a time-crunch the dough doesn’t have to rise all of the way, but it is easier to work with and the finished product will be fluffier if you let it rise for a few hours.
Then you spread out the sauce, lay the meats down, followed by the cheese.
Then with a pizza cutter, start cutting about 1 inch thick strips down the whole rectangle. You want to make the strips on each side the same size and make sure you have the same amount, like the first picture. Don’t get frustrated your first time, it takes a few times to get the braiding down.
Follow the pictures above. You take the first strip and pull it down to the second strip on the other side. You then take the first strip on the other side and do the same. Keep braiding all the way down and make sure to tuck in the ends or the sauce will spill out during baking.
A few minutes before it’s done I brush with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano. I then bake at around 325 until golden brown.
Creamy Lemon Cheesecake Pie
2 pkg. (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA cream cheese, softened
1/2 C Sugar
1/2 C. Sour Cream
1 Tbs of Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tsp. Grated Lemon Peel
2 Eggs
1 Honey Maid Graham Pie Crust
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Beat cream cheese in bowl of electric mixer on medium speed until creamy. Add sugar; beat until well blended. Add sour cream, lemon juice and peel; mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition just until blended. Pour mixture into pie shell. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool completely on wire rack. Refridgerate 4 hours or overnight.
1 package (10 oz., about 40) regular marshmallows
- OR -
4 cups miniature marshmallows
6 cups Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® cereal
