Chicken Fried Chicken
Yum! I wanted to make crispy chicken tacos and needed a good fried chicken recipe. I doubled all the spices and added garlic powder. I also put the chicken tenders in flour, then egg, then the crumb mixture. Only a few minutes per side and I had perfect fried chicken tenders for my tacos!

Caramel Shortbread Squares
These were very easy to make. I lined my pan with parchment paper which made it super easy to get them out. The only problem I had, and I think it was my error was having a hard time getting the chocolate to melt to the perfect consistency to spread over the caramel! Other than that these little jewels tasted great!
