If you’re looking for an autumn-themed quick and easy cookie recipe, this is it. And they are delicious! A friend shared her recipe with me. They’re perfect for after school treats, tailgate parties, potlucks or yourself. I’ve made them several times due to requests. They’re even the color of autumn.

No Bake Butterscotch Cornflake Cookies

4 cups cornflakes

1 (11 oz.) bag butterscotch chips

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

• Put cornflakes in a large bowl. Set aside.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt chips and peanut butter.
• Remove from heat.
• Stir in vanilla.
• Pour melted mixture over the cornflakes.
• Toss to coat.

Drop by tablespoon onto parchment paper.

Chill till firm.

Tip: You can melt the chips and peanut butter in the microwave at 30 second intervals until smooth. You can also use frosted flakes to make them a bit sweeter.

Enjoy.

Happy Autumn!

 

With summer heat soaring in many areas, lemons are a refreshing pick-me-up. So is a light and cool lemon pudding punch bowl cake. And it’s easy to make.

All you need is a lemon cake mix, instant lemon pudding and Cool Whip.

• Bake one lemon cake mix in a 9×13 pan as directed. Cool.
• 3 boxes 3.4 oz. instant lemon pudding/pie filling. Prepare as directed.
• 2 eight-ounce containers of Cool Whip or one large.

Spoon some pudding mixture in the bottom of a glass bowl or punch bowl. Layer with cut up cake pieces, pudding and Cool Whip. Repeat until all the ingredients are layered. Always top with Cool Whip and refrigerate. When ready to serve, scoop out desired amounts.

I’ve also made this bowl cake recipe with chocolate cake and chocolate pudding. Yummy!

Stay cool and enjoy summer!

Are you having a difficult time selecting an easy craft for Father’s Day? I found a free “Best Dad” award template online.

Supplies needed:

• paper plates
• cardstock
• free online printable World’s Best Dad/#1 Best Dad template
• peel and stick foam stars
• double-sided tape or glue

I used double-sided tape because we are often short on time in our Sunday school classroom. I created my own cardstock ribbon sample.

You can always add a scripture to the back.

Enjoy.

Happy Father’s Day!

Supplies needed:

• buttons and lots of love

Happy Mother’s Day!
