Avalanche Cookies

During the holidays one of our traditions is to have a baking day while we listen to Christmas music or watch a Christmas movie. It always helps to get us in the Christmas spirit while we make fun memories and yummy treats to share with our family & friends. One of our favorite & simple no bake holiday cookie recipes are Avalanche Cookies. These have become a quick treat we can whip up and bring to a holiday party or for a special treat while we have a Christmas movie marathon. Hope your family loves them as much as mine! :)

INGREDIENTS:

One lb. white chocolate baking bars

1/2 cup Peanut Butter (creamy)

2 1/2- 3 cups Rice Krispies

2 cups mini marshmallows

DIRECTIONS:

Melt chocolate baking bars over low heat on the stove, stir continuously so chocolate won't burn. When melted add in peanut butter and stir until creamy.

In a large mixing bowl mix rice Krispies and marshmallows. Pour chocolate mixture over rice Krispies and marshmallows and stir to combine.

Drop cookies onto prepared wax papered baking sheets with a spoon. (They will not be uniform and should look a bit like a mountain shape ;))

Let sit up to 2 hours or until chocolate hardens. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or in freezer for 2-3 months.

*Makes 24-36 cookies

Enjoy!! :)

The journey that brought me to homeschooling: part II

I've had a few inquiries on my Instagram account about what got me into homeschooling lately and I'd love to take you on the journey with me while I reminisce :) So lets go back to the beginning, a little over 9 years ago my kiddos and I were living a completely different life. We were barely hanging on by a thread and just trying to survive another day. That's life, living with an abusive alcoholic and meth addict. I am so grateful and beyond thankful to say that my kiddos and I are survivors of domestic violence/abuse and that we are here, thriving and living an incredible life. One that God has brought so much restoration and healing to, we are safe, happy, healthy and loving the life we are privileged to be living. If you or anyone you know happens to be in a horrible situation, living with a violent partner I encourage you to seek help when it's safe for you/them to do so and t
