Crockpot Pumpkin Butter
I don’t post a lot of ‘canning’ recipes on here because most of what I know about canning is in my head. I just do things the way I saw them done when I was young and I can’t really guarantee the accuracy of all of them.
This recipe here is a good one for canning and giving out as gifts though. It never seems to stick around that long here though because my kids LOVE ‘fruit butters’ and I love that I know exactly what’s in them.

I want to give this a try with my canned pumpkin soon!
I haven’t tried using anything other than sugar to sweeten this with but I think it would probably be ok to give it a go. This also freezes well if you don’t want to can it.

Peanut Butter Pie w/Meringue
A sweet old lady shared this recipe with me many years ago when we worked together at a little restaurant. This was her signature pie and people came from all around for a slice of this!
She didn’t really measure so I had to catch her one day when she was whipping this up so we could get it written down.
No-Bake Oatmeal Cookies
This is probably one of the most made cookie recipes in our home as both of my older girls learned how to make these when they were young and they quickly became experts!
These also go by other names such as Preacher Cookies, Beaver Dams, Haystacks, Mud Pies, and Cocoa Quickies but no matter what you call them they are delicious!
