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!

"Hosaf" (Dried Fruit Compote)

I've made reference to our trip last Summer to different European countries. My prized souvenirs are cookbooks from each country. I'm not sure, of the 4 cookbooks, which is my favorite, but I surely enjoy the one I purchased while in Greece. I'll tell the quick story: We were in an open air market in Greece, searching through antiques and junk. Along the perimeter of where we were shopping were business. In typical European fashion, outside one of the restaurants was a young man leaning against the doorframe, as if to summon customers into his restaurant. When he heard our English, he asked where we were from, as he had studied in the States when he was in school. That question led to a great conversation and he invited us into the restaurant which he and his mother owned.  We sampled all sorts of incredible foods that afternoon and when I told him that I would love to have a cookbook because of the great experience we had just had, he showed me the co...
