Wednesday WOW Recipe... S'more Bars

We loved family camp this year.... adorable Sarah Yocum gave me this yummy creation she made up on her own. She wakes up in the middle of the night and writes recipes that come to her head. I think that's simply amazing! She gave me permission to post her one-of-a-king original S'more Bars. Thanks sister!

The stuff you need:

1 1/2 cups of butter
1 2/3 cup of sugar
2 eggs
3 teaspoons of vanilla
1 box of graham crackers
1 cup of flour
1 teaspoon salt
8 chocolate bars, dark or milk ch.
3 cups mini marshmallows

Go for it:
Preheat oven to 350.
Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, add eggs and vanilla, stir in crushed graham crackers. Take 1/2 of the mixture and press firmly in the bottom of a 13x9 pan. Add chocolate bars in a single layer on top and cover with mini marshmallows. Add last half of cracker crust and cover marshmallows and press firmly. Bake for 20-24 minuets.

Sarah baked this delighful treat for us on her 24 and we gobbled them up! Keep enjoying your summer & all the yummy things to pig out on:)

Wednesday WOW Recipe... Breakfast Pizza

My family loves breakfast for dinner. This tasty pizza is loaded and it's semi-homemade!

1 can (10) biscuits
1 lb sausage; cook & drain
1 12oz pkg. frozen hashbrowns; thawed
2 cups mild cheddar cheese; grated
4 eggs
milk- splash
salt & pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Grease bottom of 9 x 13 pan. Spread out biscuits to form a crust. (I sometimes bake crust for 5 min. so I don't worry about sogginess) Put sausage in; crumble thawed hash browns. Next, mix eggs & milk, salt & pepper to taste. Pour over hash browns; put cheese on top. Bake uncovered 20-25 min. or until crust is golden brown.
