Move over Crocker

December 9, 2007 at 9:45 am (Baking, Family) (, )

Kraft Foods has made me a regular Betty Crocker.  I’ve found delight in whipping up a sweet concoction on the weekends.  Dick and Tater find delight in devouring these concoctions. 

The first experiment was a caramel covered cheesecake that was delish.  Only the caramel eventually slid off the cheesecake and pooled onto the bottom of the pan.  Don’t think we didn’t scoop it up and put it on top of every slice we ate.

Last weekend was a chocolate peanut butter banana cream pie that was way too small but I will be making again.

Yesterday I made the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake which tops a Betty Crocker Devil’s Food Cake with a mixture of cream cheese and peanut butter followed by a layer of Cool Whip and semi-sweet chocolate.  Dick said it was a much better version of the Girl Scout’s Tagalong.

These recipes are easy and so far positively sinful - and they have kept Dick from spending his paycheck on candy each week.  And I know my picture looks nothing like theirs but I can promise that this one isn’t made of cardboard.

    By the way… I hate you because you can eat chocolate cake. It’s one of my favorite foods in the WHOLE world, and wouldn’t you know… the only thing I am allergic to is CHOCOLATE! Really, It’s sick. Try being a woman allergic to chocolate!
