My house is clean, my kids are all outside in the delicious, warm sunshine playing together, and I am baking away!

I made Oreo Tuffles...WOW are they sweet and so simple to make!
Just crush 3 cups of Oreos in a plastic bag.
Pour into a bowl...
Add a package of cream cheese and mix well.
Melt 2 bars of chocolate in the microwave.
Set on a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper to set.
Package them up and they are the perfect little gift!

Can't wait to try the truffles. They look fantastic!!! Thanks so much for sharing. Have a Christmas full of peace as you reflect on all with which you've been blessed. Hugs, Christan
I wish I'd seen your banana bread recipe earlier! I made some the other night and ended up having to check on it every 5 minutes because it wasn't done. Now I know it needs about an hour!
those all look so delicious...so professional...and I am again, wanting to be a neighbor!!
have a very blessed Christmas Julia!!

What a great idea to send cinnamon rolls to the neighbors! They would be great for Christmas morning. I'm thinking... make ahead and tell neighbors to pop them in the freezer perhaps? Then pull them out first thing that morning and bake a little later.
Merry Christmas, Julia!
Hi Julia,

Your home look s so cozy, warm and inviting. Hope you had a very Merry Christmas!

Realistically speaking, they are on average in the 100 dollar range. This rating tells you how much amperage is available when discharged evenly through a 20 hour period. Laptop batteries discharge quicker when they are hot, so never leave them in hot cars and clean out the air vents every so often.
