Peep S'mores

Our latest faculty meeting was hosted by us, the second grade team. We decided to do a Pinterest Picnic! Each of the four of us made 3 recipes that we found on Pinterest. We each made recipe cards so that everyone could take home 12 new recipes. This was my easy dessert!

I put 2 pieces of Hershey chocolate and one Peep on a graham cracker. I microwaved it for about 20 seconds. I then put a graham cracker on top to finish it off! So easy and so so cute for Easter.

Cheesy Sausage Balls

I make these yummies every Christmas Eve and most Thanksgivings. I recently made them for our faculty meeting. I forget how easy they are and how fast they disappear.

1 lb sausage

2 cups shredded cheese

1/4 c water

2 cups bisquick

bake on 375 about 20 minutes

Christmas Cookies

We had so much fun this year making our Christmas cookies! I used Pinterest for all of my recipes and they turned out better than ever. I made "Jesus Cookies," red velvet cookies, wreath treats, and melted snowmen. They were beautiful and delicious. The Jesus cookies, as I like to call them, were my personal favorite. I have always LOVED the frosted sugar cookies from the grocery store. A friend of mine told me that if Jesus took cookie form, he would most definitely be one of them, hence the nickname. This recipe was moderately easy and tasted exactly like the store bought variety! The melted snowman cookies were made of a normal sugar cookie, but spruced up with the cutest little snowman features. Red Velvet, being my favorite cake, was my favorite tasting cookie. They were soft and chewy with a cheesecake filling. Lastly, the wreaths were so cute. They added cheer to our trays. My mom and sis made tons of tasty recipes as well. I just love Christmas baking!!!
