Peanut Butter Rice Krispies

Ok so I'm on a recipe roll. This is a great, very easy and fast treat that makes a lot.

1 C karo syrup
1 C sugar
1 C peanut butter
approx 6 cups rice krispies]

Bring sugar and karo to a boil. Take of burner and stir in peanut butter till it's all melted. Add rice krispies. Pat into a greased cookie sheet. I like them a little more ooey gooey, so I like let the cup of karo overflow a big, maybe a half cup extra. You can also add melted chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips over the top like a frosting.
They seriously take 5 minutes to make, a litte while to set, but are sooooo peanut buttery good.

Wasil

This is the best Wasil recipe I've ever found


2 1/2 C apple cider mix
2 C tang
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp cinnamon
2 1/3 C sugar
1 pkg koolaid lemonade flavor

Mix all ingredients together well. Serve with hot water for a drink to warm you. For more orange flavor add less apple and more tang. My mom also thinks it's better with 2 koolaid packets.

Caramels {in the microwave}

Yes, in the microwave. You know those great homemade caramel { Aunt Stacy makes a wicked batch} and yes I make them all the time and they totally work.

1/2 C butter
1/2 C corn syrup
1/2 C white sugar
1/2 C brown sugar
1/2 C sweetened condensed milk
1/2 C chipped pecans {optional}

In large microwave safe bowl melt butter. Add syrup, sugars, and milk. Stir well and microwave for 6-8 minutes. Now you'll have to figure out time with your own microwave. This may be too long or not long enough. The soft ball method works for this. { get a small cup with a little cold water in it. drop a small amount of caramel into the water. dump the water and check the consistency of the caramel. this is what the caramel will be like when it's set up.}
Pour onto a greased dish and refrigerate for 30 minutes. They can be cut, wrapped in chocolate, and wrapped in wax paper.

Orange Rolls

These are the best sugary breakfast ever. And good with dinner

2 pkg buttermilk biscuits
1 cup sugar
1 cup orange juice (made, not concentrate)
1 cube butter

Bring sugar, juice and butter to a boil on stove. Place biscuits into a bunt pan on thier side all the way around. Pour orange mix over the biscuits. Bake at 375 for 15 minutes. Take out of oven, and THE HARDEST PART, flip over onto a pan, or plate whatever is easiest. Note: do this over the sink. I've made a few messes with this one.

Caramel Popcorn

2 cups brown sugar
1 cube butter
1 dash salt
1 cup Karo syrup
1 can sweetened condensed milk

3 bags microwave popcorn, popped. I put this in a bowl and kindof sift it with my hands to another bowl to get the seeds out.

Bring sugar, butter, salt, and karo to a boil, on medium heat stirring constantly. Add milk and bring to a boil again. Pour over popcorn and stir. I use a large cake pan, or cookie sheet greased. After a few minutes I'll stir or transfer to another pan so you can get the caramel off the bottom to more popcorn. Excellent.

Cream Corn

I know this might not sound very good, but this is great corn. I don't like the creamed corn in the can at all!!! But this stuff is so good.


48 oz frozen corn
2 pkg cream cheese
4 tbsp water
3 tbsp milk
2 tbsp sugar
american/or Parmesan cheese
Add all ingredients to crock pot. Cook on low for 4-5 hours. You can use less cream cheese if desired, and any kind of cheese.
