I'm sure by now you've had the delicious sweet treat called "Cake Balls."  In Oklahoma they've been referred to as "Angel Bites" or "Cake Bites."  Whatever you call them, they're just good!

As always, this is a recipe that you can alter to your taste.  If you have time, play around and get the concoction that tastes best to you! 

Cake Balls
1 cake mix, baked according to directions
1 container ready-made frosting
1 package almond bark (white or chocolate)

After baking the cake, crumble the warm cake into a large bowl.  Add the container of frosting and stir thorougly.  This will make a "goup" of sort!  Use a small cookie scoop and start making the cake balls.  Allow to cool completely in the refrigerator then freeze for 2 or more hours. 

Melt bark according to package directions.

Dip frozen cake balls into melted coating.  Roll in nuts, sprinkles, candies or decorate with additional melted almond bark in contrasting color if desired.  Allow to set up on wax paper.

Charleston's Style Potato Soup

Love Charleston's! Love everything I ever eat at Charleston's. Love the blackened fish sandwich, which isn't listed on the menu but you can still order it, with glazed carrots. Love the carrots! Love the chicken fingers;  the best there are!  I rarely order them -- because it's not a healthy choice, but oh boy!  They're delish! Love the honey glazed croissant. L.O.V.E! Love the pork chops with smashed potatoes and glazed carrots. Love the potato soup! Seriously adore it! It's thick. It's simple. It's delicious! We don't have a Charleston's where we live. Boo hoo! Here's a close replica of Charleston's baked potato soup.  I found it at www.tastebook.com   I made some adjustments to the recipe.  Not because I think I "know," but because I didn't have everything on hand nor can my sweet girl cherub have some of the ingredients.  I made it and didn't tell my family what it was su...

Mixed Nut Butter

I've been making almond butter for the Mr. some time now. I used to make it in my (very) old food processor. Matter of fact, my dad bought the food processor for me before I ever got married . . . from a garage sale! So I know it's at least 20 years old, but probably older! I bet when my dad did that he had no idea I'd still be using it! That's money well spent, huh? Recently, thought, the Mr. saw a "suggestion" to make mixed nut butter. There you go; enough said! I've already made him two different kinds recently. Regardless of your preference, I don't think you can go wrong! The first I made was a combination of walnut and pecan Now, I've made a mix of cashew and walnut Next will be pecan and almond I think. It's so easy. Follow the general directions from the post about making almond butter: http://karen-proverbs31.blogspot.com/2012/01/almond-butter.html There's a bit of difference, but on...
