PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Made with 1 cup chunky peanut butter, a cup of sugar, and one egg. That's ALL!

Mix the three ingredients, roll little balls, flatten slightly, fork design on them, and bake on parchment paper covered cookie sheets for 10-12 minutes (depends on the humidity around here - or oven quirky-ness) at 375. (you'll know the consistancy you like in a cookie)

When you take them out of the oven let them continue to sit on the cookie sheet for a minute or so (cooling somewhat) before you pull the parchment & cookies off to the counter top to cool completely.

Easy ice cream dessert

Unwrap 1 package of ice cream sanwiches ( the kind with the brown cookie on the outside and vanilla ice cream in the middle) and place them in the bottom of a 9x13 pan. Pour 1 jar of fudge ice cream topping over them. Spread with 1 container of Cool Whip. You can sprinkle any kind of embelishment that you like on top. I grate a frozen Hersheys bar over the Cool Whip. My friend sprinkles hers with crushed M&Ms. Have had it with chopped nuts on top. Cover the pan with foil and return it to the freezer until ready to serve.

Dump Cake.

Take 1 can of cherry pie filling and put in 13 X 9 pan spread out on bottom, then 1 can of crushed pineapple spread on top of cherries, then spread one box of yellow cake mix (any kind). Slice up 1 stick of butter and dot top of cake mix. Put in oven at 350 degrees for approximately 30-45 minutes (until top is nicely browned). My son hates canned pineapple but loves this. I always get asked for the recipe when I make this and its soooo easy

Easy Upside down Peach Cobbler

1 stick butter

1/2 cup milk
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1tsp baking powder

1 large can sliced peaches
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp cinnamon


You melt the stick of butter in the bottom of your 9X13 baking dish
at 350degrees mix together the milk. sugar and flour and baking powder then pour over the butter evenly in bottom of pan, then pour the can of sliced peaches over the batter mixture and sprinkle with the 1/2 cup of sugar and tsp of cinnamon, bake in a 350 degree oven for 1 hour,
the crust rises to the top and this is a very great tasting cobbler and I love the ease of making it!

I have also done the same thing with cherry pie filling and it worked great
Tips: I have used the small can like 15oz size? or the larger can,
I like it best with more peaches in it so normally I put in 2 cans of regular 15oz size
or 1 big can like a 26-29oz and do not drain, dump the peaches and juice into the pan
