Yeah that cookie salad looks easy, was thinking it would look festive with some cherries, but noticed they are in the ingredients, pity they didn't put some on top.

You could always add your own twist to the recipe Anne and add the cherries on top if you like! :clap

Home Made Pop Tarts!



Ingredients
1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated pie crusts
1/4 cup strawberry jam, divided
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon colored decorating sugar, or as needed




Directions
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Unroll the pie crusts, place on a lightly floured work surface, and roll the crusts slightly with a rolling pin to square the edges. Cut each crust into 8 equal-sized rectangles. Place about 2 teaspoons of strawberry jam in the center of 8 squares, and spread the jam out to within 1/4 inch of the edge of the pastry square. Top each with another pastry square, and use a fork to crimp the squares together, sealing in the jam. Use a knife to trim the pastries, if desired. Move the filled pastries to the prepared baking sheets.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are lightly golden brown, about 7 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheets. Meanwhile, stir together the confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl to make a spreadable frosting. Spread the cooled tarts with frosting and sprinkle with colored sugar.

These freeze great!

EASTER PARTY BASKETS


Buy:

1 box yellow cake mix
1 can frosting (white or pastel color)
Green decorating sugar
Thin red string licorice
Small jelly beans or assorted colorful candies

Make cupcakes from cake mix as directed on box and spread with frosting.
Sprinkle green sugar over top and decorate with jelly beans and candies.
Cut licorice into strips about 5 to 6 inches long. Curve to make handles
and poke ends through side of cupcake. Helps to chill handles before
trying to poke them in cake. A nice added touch is to buy about 5 yards
of very narrow pastel colored ribbon and cut into strips of about 9
inches and tie bows on the licorice handles.

Slutty Brownies (So Delicious and Completely Inappropriate!)




Prep Time 15 Minutes
Cook Time 40 Minutes Servings 10 Difficulty Easy

Ingredients

FOR THE BROWNIE LAYER:

•10 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
•1-¼ cup White Sugar
•¾ cups Cocoa Powder
•½ teaspoons Salt
•2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
•2 whole Eggs
•½ cups Flour

FOR THE COOKIE DOUGH LAYER:

•1 cup Butter
•½ cups Brown Sugar
•1-½ cup White Sugar
•2 whole Eggs
•2-½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
•2-½ cups Flour
•1 teaspoon Salt
•1 teaspoon Baking Soda
•1 teaspoon Baking Powder
•2 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
•1 package Oreo Cookies, 15 Ounce Package


Preparation Instructions

For the brownie layer:

In a medium-sized sauce pan, melt the butter over medium high heat. Add the sugar and cocoa powder once the butter is melted. Whisk to combine and remove from heat. Add the salt, vanilla and eggs and continuously whisk until the eggs are combined. Add the flour and continue to mix. Set batter aside.

For the cookie dough layer:

Cream together the butter and sugars using a mixer. Add the eggs and vanilla, making sure to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl. Add the flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder and mix on low until everything is incorporated. Fold in the chocolate chips. Set dough aside.

For the assembly:

Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Line the bottom of a 9×9 baking pan with tin foil and then spray the tin foil with a layer of baking spray.

Layer half of the cookie dough on the bottom of the prepared baking pan, pressing down to form the bottom of the Slutty Brownies. Reserve the remaining cookie dough to be used to make cookies later in the day.

Layer as many Oreos as you can on top of the cookie dough. No need to overlap. One single layer will do.

Pour the brownie batter on top of the Oreo layer and make sure it’s spread evenly on top.

Bake for 30-35 minutes. Test with a knife to see if the center is done. If the knife comes out clean, then remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies rest before serving. If the knife comes out with batter still on it, allow the brownies to bake about 5 minutes more.

Serve with ice cream!

Recipe adapted from The Londoner.

MIXED UP CANDY BARS

2 rolls Pillsbury chocolate chip dough
12 fun-size MILKY WAY® bars

Slice cookie dough into 1-inch pieces and lay in 9x13-inch pan. Bake at
350°F for 15 minutes.

While the dough is baking, cut the MILKY WAY® bars into quarters.
Wearing hot mitts, remove the pan from the oven and place pan on a wire
rack. Press candy bars into the hot dough. Return pan to the oven for
another 15 minutes.

The bars will appear to be underbaked, but they are ready.
The cookie dough slices more easily if you place the rolls in the
freezer for 20 to 30 minutes prior to cutting.
