Sweet Yeast Rolls

These are by far my favorite roll! They do take me a little more time than my regular yeast bread recipe but very worth it. This recipe makes alot. That's okay. The rolls can be popped in the microwave for a few seconds the next day or two and taste just as good. Or....take part of the dough and fry it. YUM!! I usually end up with 15 rolls, 1.5 pound loaf of bread and plenty of fried bread from this recipe. There is always the option of rolling the dough out and making cinnamon rolls. This recipe would be quite versatile. I just haven't played with it much yet. In time.... I haven't tried freezing the dough, I might do that soon. I will let you know how that turns out. 1 package dry active yeast 1/2 cup warm water 2 cups milk, scalded, cooled to lukewarm 1/2 cup sugar 7-8 cups of flour 2 tablespoons softened butter 2 eggs 2 teaspoons salt PRINT RECIPE Soften yeast in water with a teaspoon or so of the sugar. See the heart? Add milk, sugar and 3 cu

Picnic Bars or Ooey Gooey Nom's

Life is sort of returning to a normal or I am simply adjusting to the new chaos we call our life. Yesterday we had a spring barbecue with lots of friends. There was so much good food yesterday no one knew where to start. At the end of the day though there was very little left over. I always get so busy I forget to take pictures and then remember after most people have left and all the food is gone. One of these days I will remember! I made a couple of favorite desserts, Kladdkaka with Daim Cream and another that I had tried at a get together a decade ago. The recipe has just been sitting in my box getting shuffled around and passed by for the same old standbys. I wanted something new and easy for the barbecue yesterday and it seemed like a good time to try the recipe and see if I could make these as well as I remembered them. They were so easy and after I tried one I remembered why I had to have the recipe. Bars: 1 3/4 cups flour 1 cup sugar 1/4 cup cocoa 1/2 cup but

DIY Spice Blend

I discovered a couple of places to buy spices super cheap. This makes me very happy for a couple of reasons. Cheap spices and buying in bulk. This also means that making my own spice blends will be cheaper and can be made in larger amounts. I'm not getting anything from these companies for mentioning them but I really loved what I ordered so I am simply sharing with you. The first one was Marshall's Creek Spices and the second was My Spice Sage . Marshall's Creek has flat shipping with larger sizes. My Spice Sage has free shipping with an assortment of sizes. The selection is fantastic. So I ordered every spice that I didn't have that was on the Mrs. Dash label. I have to tell you, there are SO many different things in Mrs. Dash! You'll see soon what I mean. Depending on how often you use these spices it might be a good project to do as a group with everyone pitching in. I searched the internet for copycat recipes and they all varied quite a bi
