About this Cook
I'm a 26 year old mother of two, well soon to be three. A daughter who is 6 and my son is 21 months. Going to be a busy house!! I have had 2 liver transplants among other various health issues. I was married for 7 years, and divorced 2 years ago. I am now with the most amazing man, and of course we are having a child together. Since this is such a busy house, I'm always looking for new and exciting recipes that don't take much time or lets e honest..effort! I like to see and spend time with my little monsters. I don't want to be stuck in the kitchen forever. I hope to find that, and I hope to share some of my concautions!
My favorite things to cook
I like to cook 'grandma' type foods, REAL mack and cheese, soups, stews, cookies, roasts with all the fixins! I love the summer, but I don't really cook much. I bbq, in the fall and winter though, that's when I like the house to smell like hot apple pie, or roast chicken. MMMM....

Peanut Butter Cornflake Crunch Bars
Great! I used 2 cups of pb and pressed them into a 9x13 pan. As they cooled I sprinkles chocolate chips on them, let them melt and then smoothed the melted chocolate over the top. Yummy. I have made these before using rice crispies.

No-Bake Cornflake Cookies
I think that I must have done something wrong, I brought the wet part to a boil, and then poured it over the dry mixture, and it didn't stick or set I guess it would be. I think maybe it should have boiled for a little longer. I then pressed the un-sticky mix in a pan, and made squares. The taste is excellent, I will do this again, but boil it for longer next time. I used almond slices instead. I just prefer them. Also, for the person who said it was too 'peanut buttery'', did you read the ingredients?? If you had, you would have noticed, there is no peanut butter. Thanks for sharing, these were great!

Chewy Brownies
I am giving these 5 stars, EXCELLENT texture. My family and babysitters inhaled them. A full pan lasted us a whopping 4 hours. I personally wold like to have had more chocolate flavor. I think maybe I will add more coco powder and less flour. I like that they are still easy, but none of the boiling, and blah blah, I have little to no patients (or time really) for that. Also, I used a clear glass pyrex dish, some people were having trouble with it sticking and being hard? Maybe you are using the wrong pan. Also, like anything, don't keep opening the oven door. It lets the cool air in, and shocks the brownies. Use your oven light, and don't look until the time is up, then you can start peeking. Thanks sooo much for sharing :)
