Everything Brownies



1 package of German Chocolate Cake mix
1 (5 3/4 oz) can of Evaporated Milk
1 (14oz) bag of Caramels
3/4 cup melted Butter
1 bag of Milk Chocolate Chips
1 (8oz) Bag Heath Toffee Chips

Mix together cake mix, melted butter and 1/3 cup of evaporated milk. Press half of the mixture in a greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 for 6 minutes. Remove brownies from oven and sprinkle on 1/2 bag of toffee chips. Melt the caramels and the rest of the evaporated milk and pour over the toffee chips. Sprinkle of half the bag of chocolate chips. Spread the rest of the brownie mixture on top. (easiest way to do this is flatten brownie mix in your hand and place on top of caramel.) Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips and toffee bits on top. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Refrigerate for 3 hours before serving.

Korean Beef


1 pound lean ground beef
1/4 - 1/2 cup brown sugar (I like it sweet so I usually do closer to 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 Tablespoon sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
1/2 - 1 teaspoon crushed red peppers (to desired spiciness)
salt and pepper
1 bunch green onions, diced (don't skip this!)

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and brown hamburger with garlic in the sesame oil. Drain most of the fat and add brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger, salt and pepper and red peppers. Simmer for a few minutes to blend the flavors. Serve over steamed rice and top with green onions.
 * This would be amazing as a filling for lettuce wraps or topped with crunchy Chinese Noodles*

    Poolside Dip



    8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
    1 red bell pepper, finely diced
    1 jalapeno, seeded, finely diced (double it up or leave in seeds if you want more spice)
    1 small can black olives, finely diced
    15 ounce can corn, drained
    1 packet ranch seasoning

    Directions:

    Dump everything into a bowl and start stirring it together. As the vegetables start to release a little of their water, the mixture will come together much easier. Continue stirring until well combined.
    Serve immediately or store in the fridge, covered, for up to 24 hours. The longer the dip sets, the more water the vegetables will release.
    Serve with crackers or chips.

    Super Bowl Dip


    • 16 oz pork hot sausage (found in the roll form, like Jimmy Dean)
    • 12 oz cream cheese, softened
    • 1 can Ro*tel tomatoes (Original), undrained
    1. Brown sausage in a non-stick skillet, breaking it up into crumbles with a spatula until no longer pink.  Drain the grease.
    2. In a medium saucepan, heat the tomatoes and cream cheese over medium heat, stirring occasionally.  Heat until the cream cheese is completely melted.
    3. Add the browned sausage to the cream cheese mixture and stir to combine.  A splash or two of milk can be mixed in if you like a slightly looser dip.  We like it thick and hearty!  Serve with tortilla chips or your favorite dipping chip.
