Butterscothch Peanut Butter


That's right!  There is an improvement on peanut butter!

You may ask yourself, "How can that be?" 

By doing "add ins!"

"What?"

All I can say is trust me on this one!

I'll keep it short and sweet; here's the recipe!  For those of you who want exact measurements -- you might panic a little!  Trust yourself and your taste buds!  Just make it the way you like it!

Butterscotch Peanut Butter

Butterscotch chips** (found by the chocolate chips)
Peanut Butter

Take a desired amount of butterscotch chips and melt in the microwave.  I start with about a 1/4 of the bag.
Take a big spoon full of peanut butter and mix it all together.

Taste. 
Ask yourself these questions:
  1. "Do I like it?" 
  2. "Does it need more peanut butter?"
  3. "Does it need more butterscotch chips?"
Based on your answer depends on what you do next!  You can either:
  1. Keep it the way it is.
  2. Add more peanut butter.
  3. Add more melted butterscotch chips.

I keep our concoction in a Gladware bowl.  That's just so I know what it is!  Delicious on apples, crackers, or as a sandwich, or on pretzels!

**We've also made this with white chocolate chips and plain 'ol chocolate chips! 

Now, to really get things mixed up!  We've also added other  mix ins!  WHOA!!!

To the Butterscotch P.B., we've added chow mein noodles (the crunchy kind).
To the White Chocolate P.B., we've added crushed up Nutter Butter cookies, or Pecan Sandies, or Oreo's.
To the Chocolate Chip P.B., we've added crushed up pretzels.

It's like we're living on the wild side!  Why don't you join us!

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...

Neiman Marcus' Chicken Tortilla Soup

 I've been to eat at Neiman Marcus one time. It was really good! "Everyone" talks about the Neiman Marcus cafe and the things they love from there. Because I've only been once, my variety of selection is limited! However, I have had lunch with friends that serve this Neiman Marcus soup recipe. It is so delicious that I wanted to pass it along to you! If your weather is like our weather, one day you're making soup and the next your grilling out! But because these are simple ingredients, you'll be able to throw it together in a moments notice!

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...
