Recipe Wednesday - Asphalt Pie

  A friend of mine - who I will call Janey Payney forever, posted this recipe years ago.  I make a variation of it as I don't care for Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.  But you literally could use any flavor of ice-cream in its place.  So easy and so good!!! 


Asphalt Pie


Oreos - 1 Package
½ gallon of mint chocolate chip ice cream
1 jar each of hot fudge and caramel ice cream topping
1 large tub of whipped topping

Roll two of the three rows of Oreo cookies into crumbs. Line the bottom of a 9” x 13” pan with crumbs. Layer ice cream on top of cookie crumbs and drizzle ½ of the hot fudge and caramel over the ice cream. Top with whipped cream and garnish with more hot fudge and caramel drizzles and Oreos cut in half. Freeze until solid.

Darla Tips:
  I found if you let the ice cream thaw just a little so much easier to spread.
I put the pan with the layer of crushed Oreos in the freezer for a bit - seems to hold together better. 
Crushed Oreos sprinkled on top are amazing as well.

Recipe Wednesday!!! - Thai Chicken Salad Wraps

 Thai Chicken Salad Wraps


We tried these for the 1st time last night.  Paul loved them!! 
I did my chicken in the crockpot - seasoned with Kinder's Buttery Chicken seasoning, Lawry's, & Garlic Pepper.  I just chopped cabbage & carrots (I hate pre-mixed stuff).  I used the Natural Peanut butter but chopped pecans instead of peanuts (that's what we had). We also used spinach wraps instead of tortillas.  I personally thought it was a little dry - but Paul thought it was perfect. I might just add a little more of the sauce next time but the flavor was super good. I also might let it sit in the fridge for a bit to get the flavors all mixed before assembling.  But we definitely will be having again. 




Thai Chicken Salad Wraps
Ingredients
3 chicken breasts, cut into quarters
1 1/2 cups dry coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
3 green onions, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro
3 tablespoons chopped dry-roasted peanuts
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons lime juice
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
3 tablespoons light sesame oil
Step 1: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add chicken and cook, 10-15 minutes, until fully cooked through. Remove from heat. Remove chicken from water and allow to cool completely. Cut into 1/2-inch cubes and place in a large bowl.
Step 2: Add coleslaw mix, green onions, cilantro and peanuts to large bowl and toss to combine.
Step 3: In a separate small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic and red pepper flakes until smooth. Pour sauce over dry ingredients and toss to coat completely.

Step 4: Place 4-5 lettuce leaves on bottom half of each tortilla. Top each with a few heaping tablespoonfuls of chicken salad mixture. Fold over sides of tortilla, then roll up from bottom to top. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Cut tortillas in half and serve

Floral Charm DSP - Thank You & Birthday Card

 I saw this card design on a Pinterest search. I loved how it turned out when I used the Floral Charm Paper, with the Timid Tiger Cardstock & The Mossy Meadow. I mention in the video that there are 13 states that are offering a sales tax holiday for school supplies in the month of July & August. Unfortunately, Washington is not one of them. Some of the items we sell at Stampin Up do fall under that category. Please reach out to me if I can answer any questions regarding it.

Recipe Wednesday - Carrot Cake Pops

So, I've been MIA for a couple days, my email at work was hacked and I have spent the past few days changing and updating passwords for my entire life and my works entire life.  To say I'm mentally exhausted is an understatement!!!  People Suck!!! 



I made these for my Card Class on Sunday. They were a huge hit.  They are my new favorite, but they are dangerous, hard to walk away from *lol* 

Carrot Cake Pops


Ingredients


  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Delights Super Moist™ Carrot Cake Mix
  • Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot
  • 1/2 cup from 1 tub (16 oz) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 4 cups white candy melts or coating wafers (24 oz)
  • 2 tablespoons shortening
  • 50 paper lollipop sticks
  • 1 cup finely chopped toasted walnuts
  • Block of plastic foam
  • Make and bake cake mix as directed on box for 13x9-inch pan, using water, oil and eggs and adding grated carrot. Cool. Line cookie sheet with waxed paper. Crumble cake into large bowl. Add frosting; mix well. Shape into 1-inch balls; place on cookie sheet. Freeze until firm; keep refrigerated.
  • In microwavable bowl, microwave candy melts and shortening uncovered on Medium (50%) 2 minutes, then in 15-second intervals, until melted; stir until smooth.(I used white almond bark & coconut oil. I put it in my mini crockpot on low and it melted great) 
  •  Dip tip of 1 lollipop stick about 1/2 inch into melted candy and insert stick into 1 cake ball no more than halfway. Repeat. Return cake pops to cookie sheet. Refrigerate 5 minutes. Remove from refrigerator a few at a time. Dip each cake ball into melted candy to cover; tap off excess. Immediately dip top in walnuts, pressing to adhere. Poke opposite end of stick into foam block. Let stand until set.
  • (I gave up on cake pops and do cake balls *lol* you just throw the stick away anyways)
