Peanut butter rollo cookie cups are a good alternative to peanut butter pie s. Peanut butter pie recipe s can be found on peanutbutterpielovers.com. For this recipe you will need:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine (not the type in a tub)
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1/2 cup granulated white sugar, packed
- 1/2 light brown sugar
- 1 egg, at room temperature
- 1-1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp baking powder

- 1 (13 ounces) package Rollo® candies, unwrapped
- 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
- Optional Glaze:
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Start off by preheating the oven to 375 degrees. In a huge bowl, cream together the margarine, peanut butter, egg, white sugar, and brown sugar. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add flour mixture, half at a time, to the margarine mixture, beating nicely to mix. Place a heaping teaspoon of the cookie dough in to the palm of your hand. Press 1 candy in to the center and press dough around it to create a ball. Roll in confectioners’ sugar and place in the ungreased mini-muffin tin. Bake for 12-14 minutes, till it is lightly browned on the top. Let it cool in the baking tins at a minimum of quarter-hour, then remove and put to the racks to cool completely.
Optional Glaze: Melt choc chips and peanut butter together till it is smooth. Pour it into a plastic zip-top bag, squeeze out the air, and seal. Cut a tiny corner from the bottom of your bag and drizzle chocolate over the tops of your cooled cookie cups.You can also use other candies like Milk Duds® candies, or Reese’s Bites. They just need the ability to mix well with peanut butter. There should be around 40 cookie cups.
Fresh Fruit Platters for Parties
There is nothing like a fresh fruit platter for parties. If you enjoy offering fresh pineapple on your fruit platters than a pineapple cutter is an important preparation tool in the kitchen. I like to offer vibrant colors of fresh fruit and find that by taking a little time to use a pineapple cutter I can place the pineapple around the tray and add fresh raspberries, blueberries, watermelon slices, and top it off with some kiwi. This offers a variety of colors in red, blue, yellow and green fresh fruits that taste wonderful and get high reviews from guest.
Using the pineapple cutter reduces the time it takes to core and slice the pineapple. It is simple and easy to use. It reduces the time it takes to prepare the dish. There is nothing like enjoying the freshness of fruit. I enjoy fresh fruit on a regular basis and find my family does too.
Benefits of Using a Pressure Cooker
Nutritionists and many other researchers under the field of diets and nutrition have found out that cooking in an open pot actually causes the food to lose some or more of its nutrients. Meaning to say, you don’t really get all the nutrients you are supposed to have and this is because it cannot be contained in an open pot. The unstable pressure being used to cook food is also a factor. You will over cook foods or even burn them if you are cooking under high pressure. So how does nutrients escape or being reduced if you are not cooking in a pressure cooker? Remember that whenever you are preparing food, you always use water and we all know that water is boiling at 100 degrees Celsius. When the water boils, it becomes a vapor and it escapes in the air and together with it, some of the nutrients from the food you are cooking.
Why Not Try the Baked Crab?
The art of baking has been applied to different foods and flours, cereals and grains were the most common ingredients used in baking and are still known to be the most appropriate materials used to this day. For some time, we have seen that baking has now started to be applied to meats and seafood as well. Here is a recipe to bake your own Snow Crabs, which are very expensive if bought and eaten at a restaurant. The recipe is simple, first heat your oven at three hundred and fifty degrees for ten minutes or so. Then take the Snow Crabs and put some white cheese, pepper, oregano and basil over them. Now place the Snow Crabs in aluminum foil and put them in the oven and bake for about ten to twelve minutes, after which your baked Snow Crabs are ready to be served. You can serve it either with bread or with pasta.
Simple to Use
I like the fact that the lid stays closed as the food is frying so there isn’t any risk of oil splattering and burning you and making a mess on the counter. This deep fryer oil heats up quick. I’d purchase again! I unintentionally touched the outside housing while frying my food and burned my fingers! I got this for my mother because with only her and my dad at home, she still continues to cook as though there are 4 people. Once I scooped out a few batches of shrimp the oil level went down a little, and the temperature increased, almost burning next batch. I checked the oil temp on the max setting with a candy thermometer and a deep fry probe. So other than that, everything is fantastic with this donut fryer! It does not have a bunch of features, save for the automated heating and fast release plug. Recently purchased the Dean fryer and the oil was too hot since there is no temperature control.
