1 cup sugar

2/3 cup butter

2 eggs

3-4 ripe bananas

1/3 cup water

1 2/3 cup flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp baking powder

Mix all ingredients and pour into a well greased bread pan. bake at 350 degree oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a testing stick comes out clean.

Stephanie got this recipe from the lady she used to nanny for. (right?). and she and i decided it was the best banana recipe we had come across. we think it is because of the water, but that is just our extensive cooking knowledge speaking. lol

1 15oz can of pumpkin (not pie filling)

1 spice cake mix

Optional: chocolate chips

this is not an old family recipe or even one mom knew about however it is such a delicious, fast, easy, and, from what I understand, even healthy recipe that I wanted to share it with everybody.

All you need is one 15oz can of pumpkin and one spice cake mix. You mix the two together and drop them in cookie shapes on a cookie sheet. We do usually add chocolate chips which would make for a third ingredient so that’s up to you. I’ve also seen this just baked in a cake pan As a sweet bread or in muffin tins as muffins.

A word to the wise this batter does not flatten or rise so if you’re doing it for muffins you’ll want to fill the muffin tin most of the way and also maybe make a swirl in the top with your spoon or something because the way it looks when you put it in is pretty much the way it looks when it comes out so if you have a lot of spiky points on it because you just dropped the dough on it that’s still what it’s gonna look like…

Bake at 375 for 10 to 12 minutes

10 oz bag of butterscotch baking chips

8 oz can of roasted peanuts

This recipe is so very easy and simple but I thought I would put it up on the blog in case people didn’t know or couldn’t remember how mom would make these. She would always make them around Christmas time if I recall. It’s as simple as melting The butterscotch chips and then dumping the peanuts in and stirring it up. Then spooning clusters onto wax paper or foil. They will cool down and be ready to eat shortly.

Pre heat oven to 375

2 cups of butter or margarine

1 1/2 cups of white sugar

1 1/2 cups brown sugar

4 eggs

2 tsp vanilla

Mix well

Add:

5 1/2 cups flour

2 tsp baking soda

1tsp salt

1 bag chocolate chips

Spoon onto a cookie sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes

When mom would make chocolate chip cookies she would double the recipe. this recipe is for a double batch. On the bag of chocolate chips where she got the recipe it would say to use the whole bag of chocolate chips but mom would double the recipe and still only use half the bag of chocolate chips so she could get more batches of cookies out of one bag of chocolate chips. I use one whole bag of chocolate chips for this recipe or if I’m buying bulk chocolate chips from Cosco it is 2 cups of chocolate chips.
