Sweet & Salty Crack {dessert}

Today I'm sharing a recipe that I've been making for years. I can't remember where I originally found it and when searching the internet the only thing that comes close to the one I used long ago, is this recipe. There are tons of recipes like this out there but if you haven't seen it before, you need to and you're welcome :)

This is such an easy and tasty dessert to bring to any party!


Need it:

I sleeve of saltine crackers
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1/2 cup brown sugar
8 oz of chocolate chips of your choice


Make it:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees

Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non stick spray.  Lay out your saltines salt side down.

In a medium saucepan, melt your butter and brown sugar together and bring to a boil for about 2 minutes, it will turn a caramel color

Remove from heat and pour all over the saltines. Bake in the oven for 3-5 minutes or until bubbly

Remove from the oven and pour the chocolate chips all over - wait about 30 seconds and then start to spread the chocolate all over the saltines.

Pop the baking sheet in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes then take out and break apart the crackers. They will not look perfect but will taste heavenly! Store in an air tight container in the fridge until ready to serve. 

Enjoy!

Have you ever made this before?

Easy Valentine's Day Sweet Treat

Happy Hump Day! This week is flying by for me and I am really looking forward to our weekend!

But today I'm sharing with you some super easy and super yummy Valentine's brownies the kids and I whipped up this past weekend.

All you need are a few ingredients and a heart shaped cookie cutter to make these delicious beauties.

What you'll need:

• box of brownie mix
• eggs, water & oil per the brownie box
• pink frosting & valentine sprinkles
• heart shaped cookie cutter

Bake brownies as directed on box.  Let cool.

Take brownies as one piece out of baking pan and use your heart shaped cookie cutter to cut hearts out. (I used an 8" x 8" pan so my brownies are thicker, if you used a 9" x 13" pan you would definitely get more heart brownies)

After cutting out all your hearts, frost them and then hand them off to your little helpers (if you have some) to do the sprinkles.

And there you go folks, a super easy and sooooo yummy Valentine's treat!

Mmmmmmmm!!

Oatmeal Dark Chocolate Cookie Bars...YUUUUUUUMMM

I haven't shared a recipe or anything yummy for a while so I thought it was about time.  I made these super yummy oatmeal cookie bars over the weekend and let me just say, ohhh emmmmm geeeeeeee, sooooo delicious!!

Original Recipe is found here

I pretty much followed the recipe exact with the exception of white whole wheat flour, I didn't have any so I just substituted with all purpose flour and I really don't think there would have been a difference.

These were sooooo easy and like the original source states, idiot proof! And because they are made of old fashioned oats, I can justify them being "healthy" 

Go make these now! They can easily be served as breakfast or with lunch or as a dessert! 

Valentine's Cookies

Brayden is my little helper in the kitchen – every time I am going to cook something, he pulls up a kitchen chair and says “I help you!” It is so cute and very hard to say no to.  Most of the time I will let him help in some way but usually I make sure to set aside time on the weekends for us to do cooking/baking together.  He absolutely loves this time we spend together (and so do I!)

Since it's now February, I thought it was time to make something yummy for Valentine's Day.  I found this easy and cute Valentine cookie recipe on Pinterest (my second home!) and thought this would be perfect to do with the little man.

His trains had to join us :)

The little stinker kept stealing licks from the bowl

I think he did a pretty good job! :)
