Big Pigs in a Blanket

Well hello there, readers. Today I will be showing you how to make these "Big Pigs in a Blanket" that I make almost every week for a quick supper. If you are anything like me, on Wednesdays you go straight from school to your house with only about two hours before church. These make two minutes to make, and about 15 to bake (depending on how fast your oven cooks). So, without further conversation, let's get into it!

You will need:

A pack of crescent rolls (depending on how many you're making)

A pack of hotdogs

A stone (I have a small one because these cook quicker in the smaller oven)

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Now, take your crescent rolls and wrap them around your hotdog.

Take your hands and smush the roll to make sure it is evenly all over the hotdog.

These look good- even uncooked! Hah.

Cook for 10-15 minutes. The first time, constantly check because you don't want these babies to burn!

I had to flip them over because they weren't cooking on the bottom- this is optional based on how your oven cooks.

Finished product! These taste like Auntie Anne's hotdog pretzels, if we're being honest here. Haha! These are literally the best. So quick and easy for a good supper.

Hope y'all enjoy these as much as I do! Have a great day. God bless.

Cinnamon Chips

Hey y'all! I'm back, and today we are making cinnamon chips. 

I had to make these for a project at school. We had to research a Spanish holiday and make a Prezi. For extra credit, we could make food, and we all know I jumped on that chance! Haha. Anyways, since we did Carnaval, we are making Mexican sundaes and oh how easy it was! The only thing I actually had to make were these chips. I already a ton of vanilla ice cream, and my partner bought caramel, nuts, and whipped cream. 

This is great for families. Children would love it, and parents love it because there is easily no price tag! 

No more distractions, on with the recipe - it's so easy, a baby could do it! Seriously, get your kids involved, hehe.

Here are your ingredients:

Flour Tortillas (Soft Taco shells)

Sugar

Cinnamon 

2 tbsp Melted butter

Now, fold and tear the tortillas in half, like you would a price of paper. This prevents those huge air bubbles that completely ruined half of my batch!

After melting your butter, use this super fun brush thing to spread it all over the tortillas. Don't put too much though, only enough so it is stightly shiny.

Next, mix about 1/2 cinnamon with sugar and spread it all over the tortillas. 

Now, bake for about 7 minutes, constantly checking, until they are a golden brown. 

Warning! Don't eat without ice cream and toppings- they aren't very good (at all). We learned this the hard way, LOL! 

Well, there you have it! Hope you enjoy, and have fun making them! As always, have a blessed day and best of luck,

Love,

Apple Dessert Pizza

Hey people! This is my first blog entry! AHHH! Yay! I'm so excited to share my life with you, and I hope you enjoy reading it. For my first post, I'll be telling you how to make apple dessert pizza, like Cici's or Pizza Hut. This recipe is so easy, literally anyone could do it. There is no exact way, but this is exactly how I like it! Enjoy!

First off, gather your ingredients. You will need:

A roll of Pillsbury Thin Pizza Crust

1 can of apple pie filling

4 tbsp. Butter, softened

2/3 cups of brown sugar

2/3 cups all-purpose flower

1/2 tbsp cinnamon

    For the icing:

2 cups of powdered sugar

2-3 tbsp milk

1 tbsp melted butter

First, open your can of dough and spread it evenly over a large pan. (You want your crust to be thin)

Now, pop it into the oven, following the directions on your can, until completely cooked. I had to press my dough with a fork to get it completely flat. You may or may not have to do this. If you do, make sure to leave the edges untouched, so your apples won't go everywhere. Mine was not done in this photo, but I didn't take another, haha.

While that is cooking, open your can of apples and slice them with a knife. Leave them in the can and just move the knife around. It's easier than it sounds. You want them as little as possible, so dice up!

Now spread your sliced apples over your cooked crust, making sure to stay within the edges.

Next, mix together all of your ingredients with a fork until blended. I actually used my hands in the end, it turned out much easier.

Now, spread your mixture over the apples evenly. I just tore off of the ball and flaked it around. Put a few layers on, the more the better!

Next, put into the oven for 10 minutes, or until the cinnamon mixture is a light brown.

While the pie is cooking, mix together your icing ingredients. Slowly add milk 1 tsp at a time after initial 2 tbsp, until icing is your preferred consistency. Do not use over 3 tbsp, 4 at the most.

After the pie is done, drizzle your icing on top and enjoy!

Thank you for reading my first blog post, stay so you can read more in the future! I will not only do cooking, but also sewing, DIY, crafts, adventures, and more!

Love,
