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!! :)

Touring the Plantations of Charleston, part I: Drayton Hall

One of our main hopes while we visited Charleston was to visit & tour some of the stunning southern plantations in the area. While we were in Charleston we managed to visit 4 out of 5 plantations that are in close proximity of the city.  Join me as I take us on a tour of Drayton Hall, Middleton Place, Magnolia Plantation and Boone Hall Plantation. We will stroll down history lane, as I share my favorite parts of each plantation, a little brief history of each, recommendations of what to see first, time to arrive at each plantation & best day/time to visit them.  To get started one of the first things to consider is which plantations you'd like to visit and the amount you are comfortable spending & then decide what time of year you plan to visit. You'll need to figure out how many plantations you plan to visit during your vacation and how you'd like to fit your tours into your schedule. *I'd also suggest planning to start your day(s) bright and early to allow...

Easy, Cafe Yumm style Rice Bowls

  Today I'm going to share one of my family's favorite weeknight meals with you, our version of a cafe' yumm bowl. It is a very simple recipe that can be altered to cater to even the most picky eaters and easily adjust for everyone's various health needs. Of course ours includes rice, we prefer to use long grain brown rice or jasmine rice but it can be made with any type of rice or quinoa. I'm sure it could be made with tofu as well or another substitute for rice that you prefer.  I always like to make a big batch of rice in my favorite small kitchen appliance, my instant pot. *Friends if you don't have one of these babies yet you are missing out!! IMHO ;) For our family of 4 I like to make 4 or 5 cups of rice (that usually leaves me with plenty of leftovers that can be used in another meal later in the week and for lunch the next day). After my rice is cooked I empty it from my I.P. and mix in my previously cooked/shredded chicken (I like to make mine in my I.P...
