Answer 1

very easy bar recipe

melt one stick butter in cake pan while preheating 350 oven
crush one pkg graham crackers into crumbs and press into bottom of pan with melted butter
top with hand fulls of toppings like choc chips, chopped nuts, coconut, raisins, butterscotch chips, whatever you have on hand
then pour one can sweetened condensed milk evenly over the top (make sure you get it all out!)
bake at 350 for 24 minutes till browned on top
wait until completely cooled before cutting into squares

everyone loves these when I bring them into work and for parties! they all want the recipe!

Answer 2

Both of these can be made in advance and kept cold

Peanut Butter Balls
Yields 75 balls

3 cupspowdered sugar
2 cupspeanut butter
3 ½ cupsrice crispies
1 stick butter (softened)

Mix above ingredients and form into balls. Place in freezer for at least 10 minutes (I leave mine in overnight).

8 oz semi-sweet chocolate bar
6 ozsemi-sweet chocolate chips
½ slabparaffin

Melt above ingredients together. Using 2 forks roll the balls in the chocolate mixture. Place back in freezer for at least 5 minutes. At this point I put mine in zip loc bags and leave in freezer (they defrost quickly, and they taste great frozen as well).

If you can find almond bark, it works fine, and check at Sam’s for Candiquick. It works great and comes with chocolate and vanilla.


Sopapilla Cheesecake

2 cans crescent roll dough
2 packages cream cheese
1.5 cups sugar
1 stick of butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
spray a 9x13 pan with non stick spray, spread out 1 package crescent roll dough and pinch to close any wholes.
Cream together 1 c sugar, vanilla and cream cheese. Spread on top of crescents. Spread the second can of crescent on top of the cream cheese, doing the same with the wholes.
Melt the one stick of butter and take off heat, add the 1/2 cup sugar that remains, and the cinnamon. Stir, then pour on top of the crescents, move the pan around so that the butter mixture evenly coats the dough.
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Delicious

I just made this pie today, but I used an oreo crust for the pie...it is really tasty.
