Mini Monster Kisses

-

Because of an over abundance of Hershey kisses from Valentine's Day and because I wanted to bake cookies for the lunches and because I felt like changing things up a bit, and because I liked the name ☺I decided to use this recipe (Monster Cookies) omitting the chocolate chips and M&M's and bake them like I did these (Peanut Butter Cup Tarts) using a size 20 cookie scoop to form the balls. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until they begin to brown over the top. Press the kiss into the cookie right away and allow to cool in the pan for several minutes. Loosen the cookie the whole way around with a thin, sharp knife, (I know, time consuming) and allow to cool in the pan till they are easier to handle. Spray the pans with non stick spray before each batch. Drizzling the white chocolate over them is optional, it dresses them up a bit. ☺

Have a Super Saturday! The sky is blue and the sun is shining here so I think I will head OUTSIDE to finish trimming the raspberries and roses.

    Looks like you had an army to feed. I love using cookie scoops - so nice to know someone else knows they're numbered.

    Thanks for the new combination. We love Monster cookies and also the Peanut Butter cups. This would be good. Now all I need is to go buy some kisses. Maybe they will be on sale after valentine's day! As far as the white sugar, my recipe uses corn syrup, probably not good either =( oh well. Lois

Creamy Finger Jello

-
Image
I was asked to bring finger Jello to serve with a hot lunch us room Mom's were serving to Serena's classroom at school. Jello isn't something I typically serve,but I have about 2 or 3 recipes using Jello that I make about once in a blue moon. One reason I make this one is because it isn't a typical, plain finger Jello. But also because it looks like a two step process when it really isn't. Everything is mixed as one and it separates as it sets. And the cream adds a good flavor. 2 large boxes Jello 4 packages plain gelatin 4½ cups boiling water ¼ cup cold water 1 cup heavy cream Combine the Jello and gelatin and whisk together. Add the boiling water and whisk until Jello is dissolved. Add the remaining ingredients and stir. Pour into a lightly greased (this helps to remove from the pan in a cleaner cut, spray the pan then wipe it down with a paper towel) glass 9 X 13 pan. Cover and chill till firm. Cut into desired shapes or squares and serve.

Seasoned Pretzels

These pretzels have been around the block and back again, but they  really are  such an easy snack and they go well as an appetizer too. They are simple and require no baking which in my opinion is a definite plus! 18 ounces pretzel twists ½ cup olive oil 1 envelope original Hidden Valley Ranch Mix 1 teaspoon dill weed ½ teaspoon garlic powder Pour pretzels into a large bowl. In a smaller bowl combine oil and seasonings and mix well with a whisk. Pour over pretzels and toss to coat. Allow to rest at room temperature, stirring every now and then to coat again, until oil and seasonings are gone from the bottom over the bowl. Pretzels are ready to serve when they look dry again. Be Blessed!

Black Raspberry Vanilla Milkshake

PERFECT FOR A  WARM SUMMER DAY! I know another Black Raspberry recipe. I promise to start eating and thinking of other food/things soon but indulge me just a bit longer. I had some black raspberry juice in the fridge and in all my warm, humid berry pickings I would think of cool refreshing things to make with them and decided I need one of these. I was not disappointed! It's delicious!! 3-4 scoops Vanilla Ice Cream 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract 2-3 lg. serving tablespoons Seedless Raspberry Juice Milk, just enough to make it blendable Mash the berries and press through a sieve. Discard seeds. Place all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.                                                                     aaahhh, so yummy!! Be Blessed!
