Hello, earlier this week I said that I was going to share my recipe for Cinnamon Rolls; so here goes:

Ingrediants:

1/2 cup butter
1 cup water
1 Tbs active dry yeast
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
6 cups of flour
1 cup sugar (white)


Filling:
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup butter

Frosting:
2 cups powder sugar
3 oz cream cheese
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 Tbs milk

Step 1: Warm the mil in a small saucepan until it bubbles, remove from heat.  MIx in the butter, stir until melted.  Add water and let cool until lukewarm.

Step 2: In large bowl, combine milk mixture, yeast, and white sugar, salt, eggs and 2 cups of flour, wtir well.  Stir in the remianing flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.  When the doug has pulled together, turn it out onton a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic about 8-10 minutes.

Step 3: Divde dough into two pieces.  Roll each piece intoa  12x9 rectangle.  In a bowl still together the cinnamon and brown sugar.  Spread each piece with half the of butter, half the brown sugar/cinnamon mix. Roll up dough, using a little water to seal the seam.

Step 4:  Cut each roll into 12 slices, place rolls onto two 9x13 greased baking pan. Cover and let rise until amost doubled, about 1 hour.

Step 5: Preheat oven at 375. Bake for 20-25 minutes.

To make the frosting just combine all ingrediants spread over warm  rolls.

Happy Earth Day!

Hi Everyone! Happy Earth Day!

In honor of Earth Day I made a special treat for ladies night and for Alyvia's pre-school class...dirt cups! What you say, that sounds so gross! Well, I am here to tell you no they are not, and super easy to make!

List of needs:
Small cups
2 pks of instant chocolate pudding mix
1 smaller tub of cool whip
4 cups of milk
Chocolate sandwich cookies, such as Oreos, one bag
Gummy worms

In a mixing bowl add the milk and pudding mix, beat until blended and let rest for 5 minutes. After waiting (and maybe a little quality control) fold in the coolwhip and had about a 1/2 cup cushed oreos. Then the fun part, start with a small amount of crushed oreos, pudding mix, oreos, and a gummy worm.  Place in fridge for about an hour prior to serving. This will yeild about 15 cups.

Yum, enjoy.

Today and everyday treat our planet with kindness and respect, make it a better place for our kids and our kids-kids.
