Snickers Cake. This creamy no-bake Snickers cake is stacked with creamy layers of homemade chocolate and peanut butter pudding along with some graham crackers softened to a cake like texture.

Draping the mad goodness of the creamy layers is a heavy pouring of caramel and chocolate ganache sauce. Of course I can never just stop at good enough, I had to take it over the top and chop up some Snickers for added authenticity and then finish that off with some caramel and chocolate drizzle. It’s cakery for the lazy. I love icebox cakes because they require no baking and always seem so much easier.

Nutter Butter Peanut Butter Pie

It was a sudden and unexpected loss. The kind of loss that is unfair in every way. In the midst of grieving for her lost love, she asked the world to make a peanut butter pie (Mikey’s favorite) and share it with someone they love. In response, the world made pies.

I recently started researching alternatives to some of my favorite dishes because there is NO way my plate will be without a big ole pile of mash potatoes. I came across this recipe that uses cauliflower instead of potatoes. Hmmm not a big cauliflower fan so I wasn't sure.

Pink Lemonade Layer Cake Recipe : Paula Deen. Honey Mustard Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms. “This is probably my favorite way to eat chicken.”

Honey Mustard Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms

That’s a quote from my husband the last time I made Honey Mustard Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms for dinner. Marinate some chicken breasts in honey, mustard, and lemon, then top with bacon, mushrooms and cheese… How could that go wrong? I love to serve this dish with a side of oven fries and a crisp lettuce salad. It’s a meal full of flavor! Begin by making the marinade for the chicken. Here’s what you’ll need for the toppings: sliced fresh mushrooms, mostly cooked bacon (it will cook more when baked in the oven), grated cheddar, and fresh parsley. After the chicken has marinated, heat a small amount of oil in a large skillet. Scrape out the pan, and toss in the mushrooms. Assemble the chicken in a large baking dish. After baking for about 20 minutes, chop up some fresh parsley and sprinkle atop before serving! Camille Styles - StumbleUpon.

Ginger Peach Iced Tea Popsicles at the End of Summer

I’ve been quite melancholy as of late. Far too busy for my own good and saddened at the thought of missing another summer. They always seem to fly by, taking with them the warm air and flowering plants, and leaving me in the cool, brisk wind waiting for the world around me to catch fire with autumn and then fade to gray and be blanketed with white.I feel as though I cannot possibly move fast enough or work smart enough to get through what needs to be done each day, especially as we round the corner to school. With school comes the incessant paperwork, kids lined up doing homework at the table that is usually reserved for art projects and family dinners and a busy, bustling schedule that involves a car and me loathing the time spent in it.

Go ahead and throw tomatoes at me if you’d like, but I don’t like ’em.

They’re just a plain old cookie, after all, with a few studs of chocolate chips in them. They’re nothing special to me, unless you get some cookie dough-action before it meets its fate in the oven. Now you’re talkin’. I’d much rather drown my sorrows in a bowl of cookie dough than nibble a dozen “cookies” dipped in milk. Twix Cheesecakes – Gingerbread Bagels.
