7 Up Biscuits

2 cups Bisquick
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup 7-up
1/4 cup melted butter

Preheat oven to 450.
Cut sour cream into biscuit mix, add 7-Up. Makes a very soft dough.
Sprinkle additional biscuit mix on board or table and pat dough out. Cut in to 9 biscuits.
Melt 1/4 cup butter in a 9 inch square pan.
Place cut biscuits in pan and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
I don't have time to try out all the recipes I've been seeing posted by friends lately. So, when I see one I may want to try in the future, I'm posting it here so I don't lose it or forget about it. This one looks cheap and easy, maybe I can even con my 12 year old daughter into testing this one out...






Ingredients
1 lb. sausage (pork or turkey)
1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese
2 packages crescent rolls
Dash salt & ground black pepper
Directions
In a saute pan, brown sausage; drain. Add a dash of salt and pepper. Blend in cream cheese until the cream cheese is melted.
Unroll one package of crescent rolls and place on a baking sheet. With your fingers, gently press the seams together to seal them. Spread the sausage mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough, leaving about a 1/2-inch border along the edges.
Unroll the remaining package of crescent rolls and place on top of the sausage mixture. Press the edges together to seal. Gently press the seams together.
Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes, or until crescent roll dough is golden brown.
Cut into small squares and serve. (A pizza cutter makes really quick and easy work of the cutting.).

Enjoy!

Well heck, I ran across another nifty idea I want to remember... So, here's another interesting project on my list...


Just cut the top off of an empty salt container, take a canning flat and draw a circle around on the top with the spout on the side... Cut it out, put inside a canning ring, and screw on mason jar... How cool is that?

A friend posted this recipe and I don't have the ingredients or time to do it today, but I don't want to lose the recipe. What better place to keep it than right here? 

STRAWBERRY CREAM CHEESE COBBLER!!!! 


 Strawberry Cream Cheese Cobbler


1 stick ( 1/2 cup) butter
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 quarts whole strawberries, capped and washed
4 ounces cream cheese, cut in small pieces


Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter and pour into a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. In a small bowl, mix together the egg, milk, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Pour directly over the butter in the baking dish, but do not stir.



Add the strawberries, arranging in a single layer as much as possible. Sprinkle cream cheese pieces over strawberries. Place in preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until top is golden brown and edges are bubbling. (Crust rises up and around the fruit, but fruit will still peek out of top.)

I've seen these little cups forever and never knew this...
All these years, when we ate out... We used three or four because
they were so freaking small...
Then, I saw this picture the other day...
I've never seen anyone use them that way before...
It's so damn simple it just never caught on with most of us...
Now I wonder what other simple things I'm missing?
Who'd a thunk those things get bigger?
