Homemade Oreos

I made these the other day and thought I would post the recipe!


1 box dark chocolate cake mix (it doesn't have to be dark chocolate)
1/2 cup margarine, melted
1 egg, slightly beaten

Mix all ingredients. Shape into 1" balls. Bake at 350 for 9-13 minutes. Cool one minute on baking sheet then cool on racks. Frost.

Frosting:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 tsp vanilla
dash salt
1 egg white

Mix all ingredients until blended, then beat on high for 2-3 minutes for extra creamy texture. Spread on cookies.

For Valentine's day, I think these would be good using a strawberry cake mix.

Rachael's Fondue Recipe

I really like the taste and texture of this fondue. I had it at a baby shower once - it's delicious!

2 pkgs semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 pkg butterscotch chips
1 can evaporated milk

Put in fondue pot, or...

Melt in the microwave in 1 minute increments, stir well. When almost melted, stir until smooth...if you heat it longer it may become too thick.

You can add warm milk to smooth it out. If any water gets in it, it will seize up...to smooth it out again, add more milk and remelt.

Marnie's Crock-Pot Stroganoff

1 lb stew meat, cubed
butter

½ cup dried minced onion
1 can (10 ¾ oz) cream of mushroom soup, condensed
1 can (4 oz) mushrooms, drained (optional)
¼ tsp garlic salt

1 cup sour cream

In frying pan, melt a little butter and brown the stew meat for a few minutes, turning to cook all sides. Combine with all ingredients in the crock pot (except sour cream) and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Add sour cream the last hour of cooking. Serves 4-6 people. Serve over hot noodles or rice.

I usually double or triple this….my family loves it and it makes great leftovers!

1 can tomato sauce
1 can red enchilada sauce (i use las palmas 12.9 oz)
Cheese (to your liking)
sliced olives

Brown meat and onions. Tear up tortillas to bite size pieces and heat for a few minutes so they get soft. Add tomato sauce and enchilada sauce. Add cheese and mix. Put in casserole pan add cheese on top and olives and cook for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
Serve Spanish rice and/or beans on the side. Easy, quick and good! I top with sour cream and sometimes lettuce and tomatos.
