Snickers Pie

February 28, 2010 in frozen desserts, pies - No Comments

When I saw this recipe online, I thought, How can anyone pass up a pie made with Snickers?  Well, certainly not me.  This actually is very similar to a Peanut Butter Pie, only you add a little extra something–and, of course, that something is Snickers!   Cut up 3 Snickers…

Lemon Pie

February 4, 2010 in pies - 2 Comments

My husband’s birthday is next week and I decided to make him an early birthday present–a pie.  I had quite a few lemons and a Pillsbury frozen pie crust, so I looked through my cookbooks and found an old family recipe that I remember my grandmother making for me all…

Oreo Truffles

October 31, 2009 in frozen desserts

Well, I’ve made Peanut Butter Balls and Cake Balls (I will put that up on the website soon), but when I read about Oreo Truffles from Better Homes and Gardens, I thought, now this I have to try!  You can coat the truffles in any type of chocolate–in the magazine,…

Buttermilk Scones

Cappuccino Brownies

April 21, 2009 in brownies - No Comments

I first made these brownies around Christmastime my junior year in college. While they didn’t secure a boyfriend, they certainly helped me make many friends! There are three layers to this brownie–a brownie base, a coffee-with-cream middle, and a chocolate layer on top. When I made these brownies, the recipe…

Lemon Bars

April 20, 2009 in bars - No Comments

Lemon is by far my favorite fruit. I love it with everything, especially chocolate. However, just having it by itself is a lovely treat too. You get to taste all the tartness. When I got married, my husband told me just how much he enjoyed this dessert (I suppose it…

Surprise Muffins

April 17, 2009 in muffins - No Comments

When I was in elementary school learning how to bake, after my chocolate chip cookies fiasco, this was the first recipe that I mastered. I think I got this recipe from a Better Crocker’s Kids Cookbook, and I loved looking at all the pictures and trying the recipes.  (However, to be completely…
