Personal Pizza

Description:
This is a fun to make pizza. With adult help, it is a kid friendly recipe!! It's extremely easy and takes only a few minutes of preparation time!

Ingredients:
Biscuit mix
Spaghetti or Pizza Sauce
Your favorite pizza toppings

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Mix biscuits according to directions on biscuit mix box. After mixing thoroughly add 1 tablespoon cooking oil. Mix well. This will prevent the dough from sticking to your fingers or other surfaces!

Line cookie sheet with foil and spray with a no-stick cooking spray. Or use a non-stick cookie sheet sprayed with a little no-stick cooking spray.

Separate dough in half. Then separate those halves in half again. And one more time!! This will give you eight little pieces of dough. Roll them into balls. Flatten onto prepared cookie sheet until they're about pizza crust thick. Flatten middle of each a little more (they will rise while cooking!!).

Top with the toppings of your choice.

Bake at 425 for 10 to 14 minutes, or until pizza crusts are done.

Enjoy!!

3 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

Description:
I got this from a group I'm on and thought it sounded good. Of course, I had to try it out!! It really works and is delicious. You can eat it straight out of the mug (try it with a scoop of ice cream!) or remove it from the cup (carefully) and slather on your favorite cake icing!!

Ingredients:
1 Large Coffee Mug
4 tablespoons flour (that's plain flour, not self-rising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional) mini chips would be the best
Small splash of vanilla

Directions:
Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well.
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!

Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

EAT! (This can serve 2 if you want to share!)

And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!

Recipes ...

Now that I finally figured out how to add recipes to my site I've got a bunch I'll be adding in the days to come. Consider yourselves warned!!

The first dozen or so recipes I'll be posting come from a family cookbook that was published many years ago. They are my personal favorites, like the *Nibble Bait* recipe I've already posted. A few of the recipes I haven't made in years. Some, like Uncle Art's Sauerkraut (coming soon!) I've never made but did enjoy when we could get our grubbies on a mason jar or two of it. Ahhhh, now that's sauerkraut!!

Maybe I'll even re-incarnate the "Gross Grub" recipes from my blogging days over at 360 if ya'll are game for some really GROSS looking but delish dishes. Great recipes for making with the kidliens, too.

I'm sure I'll be adding diabetic *friendly* recipes, for obvious reasons, LOL.

I also found some great kids play recipes - things like homemade playdough. I'll be adding them, too. Fun with the kiddies and grandkids on those rainy days!!
