Easy Apple Crescents

This is one of the easiest desserts you'll ever make . . .

and you'll be surprised at how well people like it!

Personally, I'm not an apple pie lover, but these little desserts, I like.

Maybe it's because the fruit to dough ratio can be a little skewed.

Maybe I can add as much cinnamon/sugar as I want.

Maybe I'm just weird and there's really no difference between the two!

This recipe is great because you can let little hands help you! Matter of fact, the little hands can do the whole thing and you can just supervise! Also, this recipe is easily halved . . .which is what I do a majority of the time!

I like to serve this with a scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of warmed caramel sauce (actually, I prefer the buttermilk syrup . . . www.karen-proverbs31.blogspot.com/pure-sin )

Easy Apple Crescents

2 whole Granny Smith Apples

2 cans (8 Oz. Cans) Crescent Rolls

2 sticks Butter

1-1/2 cup Sugar

2-4 tsp. Cinnamon, or to taste

1 can (12 Oz.) Sprite, 7-up, or Mountain Dew

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Wash and core the apples. You can peel them too, but I don't. Cut each apple into 8 slices each.

Roll each apple slice in a crescent roll.

Place in a 9 x 13 buttered pan.

Melt butter, then add sugar and cinnamon and stir until combined. Pour the entire mixture over apples. Pour the soda around the edges of the pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with ice cream, and spoon some of the sweet sauces from the pan over the top or use a bit of caramel.

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...
