Camo cookies

That time of year again.  My brother's b-day.  Had a friend ask if I was going to make Camo cupcakes for him again.  I told her I was more into cookies this year then cupcakes so "Ding" I will try Camo cookies.
He loved them.
I used my basic cake cookie recipe that you can find in an earlier post.  But I made three batches.  Yes I know a lot of cookies.  But that is ok I gave him a bunch, kept a bunch and brought some to work.

1 box choc cake mix (might want to use a little more oil, it seemed really thick)
1 box white cake mix
1 box yellow or white cake mix and add green food coloring.

I just took a little bit of each color and squished them together.  Turned out great.

St. Patty's Day Cookies

These turned out so yummy.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix together
2 eggs - beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup oil
4 or 5 drops of green food coloring

then add and mix
2 Tablespoons vanilla pudding mix
1 box yellow cake mix

then add a large handful of Ande's mint bits (you can find these with the chocolate chips at the store)
two handfuls of chocolate chips

Spoon on to greased baking sheets and bake for 10 to 12 minutes

Easy BBQ Chicken wings

This was so very easy.  I made a lot but you can do this with what ever amount you want.

One bottle of any flavor BBQ sauce that you want.
One bag frozen chicken wing sections.
Add both to crockpot.
Cook 2 hours on high then 2 hours on low.
Spread out of baking sheet and cook 30 min. turning over half way through.
And Enjoy.

Homemade Chocolate Icing

My first try at homemade icing.  And I gotta say.  I rocked it.  I will never buy chocolate icing again.

You will need
1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup softened unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 Tablespoons milk
1/3 cup (or to taste) cocoa powder

I just used a large spoon but you could use beaters if you wanted.
Stir or beat powdered sugar and butter until smooth.  Add in the rest and stir or beat until well mixed.
Add more milk if it is too thick.
And that is it.  So Simple.  So Good.
I was able to cover two dozen cupcakes with this.

Creamy Ramen noodles.

So So good.  Creamy Ramen noodles.  Cook the ramen noodles in 2 cups water for 3 minutes.  Drain the water.  Add 1/3 cup milk and 1 Tbs butter and the ramen mix.  Heat until the butter melts.  So easy and so good.  You can use any flavor ramen.  I have been hooked on pork flavor right now.

Cake cookies

These cookies are so light and fluffy and so easy to make.  I think I have a new favorite chocolate chip cookie.


Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix together
1 cake mix.  I used yellow but will try others in the future.
1/2 cup oil
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp vanilla pudding mix (not required, I just like vanilla)
3/4 cup chocolate chips.  (Less or more as desired)

Spoon out balls onto a baking sheet.  Bake for 12 - 14 minutes. ( I would start out with 10 min and adjust as necessary.  I usually have to bake for longer then most recipes.)

This made about 3 1/2 dozen cookies.

Just a update.  I used Pillsbury cake mix the first time and they turned out soft and chewy.  I used Duncan Hines the last time I made them and they were crunchy.  So I think the softness of the cookies depends on the cake mix.

Breadsticks

Really good.  My family says they want these now all the time.  I used to just get the frozen bread-sticks from Walmart.
Take one bread-stick and spread it out.  Sprinkle cheese on the break-stick.  I used mozzarella this time but I have used Colby-jack before.  Press the cheese into the bread-stick and then put another bread-stick on top.  Press the sides together.  Sprinkle the Garlic Parmesean powder on top and then twist.  Repeat until all the bread-sticks are used up.  This will only make six bread-sticks.
Cook for the time on the Pillsbury container.
Enjoy.
