Hot Fudge Sundae Cake
Oh my! This is such a wonderful dessert. I learned this recipe back in Home Ec. I’ve enjoyed making it for a long time now. It is pretty rich so we don’t eat it very often but the kids consider it a real treat when we do. Try this drizzled with some Homemade Caramel Sauce for an extra special treat.

This homemade syrup is so good and can be used for so many things like chocolate milk, over ice cream, on Protein Power Pancakes (3 variations), and on Hot Fudge Sundae Cake! With our updated version this is even better for you than before so you can still enjoy some of those sweet treats while on your journey to becoming healthier.
You can whip up a batch, or two, and keep it in the fridge for those special occasions. Continue reading “Homemade Chocolate Syrup (with healthier options)”
Impossibly Easy Pizza Bake
My kids love pizza but with so many kids it can get rather expensive. This is a treat they like and it doesn’t cost me an arm or a leg to make. Add a salad to make it a filling meal.
Impossibly Easy Pizza Bake
Ingredients:
- 3 1/3 c. Original Bisquick™ mix (from a 2 lb 8 oz box)
- 1 c. milk
- 1 jar (14 oz) pizza sauce
- 1 package (7 oz) sliced pepperoni
- 2 c. shredded mozzarella cheese, or the pizza blend
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F.
Spray 13×9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, mix the Bisquick and milk until soft dough forms.
Drop half of the dough by spoonfuls evenly in the bottom of the baking dish (dough will not completely cover the bottom of the dish).
Drizzle about 1 cup pizza sauce over dough.
Arrange half of the pepperoni slices evenly over sauce.
Top with 1 cup of cheese.
Repeat layers with remaining dough, pizza sauce, pepperoni, and cheese.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown, biscuits in the center are cooked, and cheese in the center is bubbly.
Oatmeal Pie
I absolutely love this pie! I’m not sure where I came across the recipe but it looked interesting and I am so glad I gave it a try. I normally have to make two of these at a time as they get gobbled up quickly. (This is good with a little scoop of vanilla ice cream as well.) Continue reading “Oatmeal Pie”
