Quick and easy two layer fudge

I found this amazing recipe in a Facebook post, and I'm sharing it here. I apologize for not being able to credit the original author.

My family devoured this dish within hours of preparation.

I divided a 40-ounce jar of peanut butter into two bowls.

I used one 16-ounce (regular size) Hershey chocolate cake frosting and one 16-ounce cream cheese cake frosting. You may use your preferred frosting flavors.

I melted the first bowl of peanut butter in the microwave for one minute on high, then melted the Hershey cake frosting the same way. I poured the cake frosting into the melted peanut butter and stirred thoroughly. I poured this into a greased 9x4 casserole dish. I popped it into the freezer for roughly twenty minutes. Then I did the exact same thing to the next bowl of peanut butter, adding the melted cream cheese frosting and mixing well. I poured the second layer on top of the first and placed it in the refrigerator for thirty minutes.

If your knife sticks to the fudge, add a little oil to your knife with a paper towel. 

My family and I have agreed that the longer the fudge sets, the better it is. But good luck with that part. Ours didn't last!

French Toast or Egg Bread?

 So this is your basic  French Toast. 

Four pieces of loaf bread dipped in milk and egg then lightly fried in a cast iron frying pan.

I beat four eggs with a small dash of milk.

Heat a small amount of oil in your frying pan, about a teaspoon of oil or Crisco.

Dip the bread into the milk and egg mixture, coating well. Then place into the hot frying pan. Brown each side of your bread. Add some butter and syrup. Enjoy!

Egg Bread

I was making French Toast for my mom's breakfast one morning. I offered to make my Grandkids some, but their mom Cari , (Of Cari on living.) was worried about all of the sugar right before school. This is where the idea of "Egg Bread" was born. I cooked a piece of French toast as normal. But added a slice of American Cheese to it. The grands had grilled cheese sandwiches made with "Egg Bread", and loved them! 

Easy Dinner Rolls

 I have found the most amazing dinner rolls. And they are so easy to do. Quick and easy is always a plus when you're in the kitchen right? Well, these rolls are just that and my family devours them!

Preheat to 350 degrees

2 Cups of self-rising flour

1 cup of milk. You can use whole or buttermilk. Whichever your family prefers.

3 Large tablespoons of Dukes mayonnaise.

Mix the ingredients to the consistency of a muffin batter. (Add a touch more milk if needed.)

Add this mixture to a well-greased muffin pan. (Regular size) Filling each about one-quarter full.

Bake until the tops are golden. Once you bring them out of the oven you may add a pat of butter to each. Or brush with butter. Let them cool before removing from the pan. Enjoy!
