Since I've been off for the summer I've been doing a lot more baking than usual. Here are a few things I've made:
Chicken Pot Pie
My friend, Karen, taught me how to do this one, and it's REALLY EASY!
This is a standard 9 inch pie. All you need is:
Ready-made pie crust that comes in a box and you unroll it.
Cooked chicken {I used leftovers from a roasted chicken}
A package of frozen mixed veggies {carrots, corn, peas etc.}
Cooked potatoes cut up in chunks.
A can of cream of mushroom or chicken soup.
Lay down the first pie crust layer in the pie pan and trim the edge.
Layer in all the ingredients.
Cover it all with the last pie crust layer.
Pinch the edges and cut slits on top to vent steam.
Turned out yummy!
During our rv trip to Oregon I got addicted to these.
I saw on somebody's blog that they made them in the oven- so I copied!
They got perfectly toasted in the toaster oven!
This week I had to make 6 dozen cookies to bring to some meetings.
Crinkle Cookies!{Just like everyone's grandma used to bake!}
Ingredients:
half a cup a butter
1 and half cup of sugar
3 eggs
2 tsp. of vanilla
4 (1 oz) squares of unsweetened chocolate (melted)
2 cups of flour
2 tsp. of baking powder
one-quarter tsp. of salt
powdered sugar
Set oven at 350 degrees. Mix ingredients. Refrigerate dough for 2 hours.
Roll into balls and coat with powdered sugar before baking.
They are so yummy!
