What do you do when you have a left over bag of Reese’s Peanut Butter Santa’s after the Holidays? Why you chop them up and make up a batch of these Ultimate Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies! Then you sit back, eat 6-7 cookies, pat your belly, and give a hearty “ho-ho-ho”! The great cookie eater becomes the cookie! Sorry, not sorry, Santa!

Finger Foods are the BEST food for a Big Football game…if you happen to know of any coming up! These Mini Beef Flautas are oven baked to a crisp and served with fresh made Guacamole. They’re SO good your guests may forget there’s a game on! Welll…maybe not…but they’ll enjoy the eats!!
Howdy! Y’all have I got a treat for you today! My Easy Homemade Baking Powder Biscuits. Mile High, fluffy, tender and tasty! Any cowboy out there worth their salt… will tell you they’ll take Momma’s homemade biscuits over a roll any day of the week! Which ironically is the case at this Nest! Ironic cause there isn’t a cowboy in sight…but they still want these biscuits…and so will you!
Football and Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches go together like…ummmm…Football and Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches! What could make them better? Making them into sliders! Delicious dinner rolls are turned into tasty bundles of happiness! Score a touch down by serving them at your Super Bowl Party!
My Aunt Janie was an AMAZING cook! The first time I had Chicken and Dumplings was sitting at her small kitchen table. It was one of the most delicious dishes I’ve ever tasted. The soup was creamy and full of flavor, the dumplings big and fluffy. Over the years I’ve added a few of my own twists…like herbs, to those big fluffy dumplings. This is a great winter one pot meal that my entire family loves!
I live with a die hard Fisherman! Not only does he love…let me say that again…L.O.V.E. to fish…he loves to eat fish! I don’t think there’s a fish he’s met he didn’t like! So he was extra happy when I whipped up this quick, easy…super easy…tasty Buttered Cod dish! Ready in under 10 minutes from start to finish! It’s a delicious regular “catch” at this Nest!
The Holidays are over and the temps are dropping at the speed of light! Like my Dad used to say “It’s colder than a Well Diggers….”. Well…ya know! (wink-wink) Which means only one thing…it’s time for a big bowl of thick rich hearty stew! One of my favorites is this Easy Slow Cooker Beef Stew..it’s perfect for warming up your insides!
One of my favorite cookies as a child are these snowy powder sugar coated “Mexican Wedding Cake” cookies. They’re still a favorite. What’s not to love? They’re a scrumptious buttery shortbread cookie loaded with chopped pecans and rolled in “snow”! Plus…you can actually build a snowman with them…if you try really hard…then you have to eat them all…because you “touched” them! Don’t ask how I know this!
One of my favorite breakfast “indulgences”? Scones! I love’em! Especially if they’re puffy, tender, moist, and buttery.
Add in my favorite Holiday flavor combination of Cranberries and Orange and you have an award winning scone! Perfect for your Christmas morning breakfast! Best part…you can make them ahead of time and reheat them in the microwave.
Last Week I hosted a “Virtual” Christmas Cookie Exchange with several of my blogging friends. It was so much fun! Today I’m putting them all together in one place with links to each cookie recipe so you can add them to your Holiday Cookie Platter this year!
