Easy Peach Cobbler

You will need 4 cups fresh peaches, combined with 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1/3 cup of brown sugar in a sauce pan on a low heat until a syrup forms in the bottom.  I usually  stir/mash them to create some natural juices from the peaches

While the peaches are on LOW HEAT, cream 1 cup softened butter with 2 cups sugar and then, with 2 cups of SELF RISING FLOUR.  If you do not have self rising flour just sift together 2 cups all purpose flour with  2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder with 1/4 teaspoon of salt

Now add 2 eggs and 2 teaspoons of vanilla and check on those peaches!


When your peaches are softened and yo have a little syrup at the bottom place them in a greased pan of choice.  Then having thoroughly mixed batter, smooth it over the top of the peaches and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.

Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown..  This 'crust' is almost like cake versus a flaky crust you get using premade pie crust.  But it is easy, tasty and you will almost always have the ingredients in your kitchen!
**Sarcasm Note I have so much energy I think I'll make two of these!

Cookie Cups - How To

You can make your own dough or you can go buy pre-made dough  

step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray the outside of each bowl cavity with vegetable spray.

step 2

Roll out dough on generously-floured surface to 1/8 in. thickness. Cut 4-1/2 in. circles from dough.. Drape one circle over each bowl cavity of pan, pressing to form smooth surface.

step 3

Bake 11-13 minutes or until cookie cups are firm and golden brown. Cool for approx 10 minutes. Loosen bottom edges of cookies from pan and carefully remove cups from pan and when cooled completely, fill with yummy goodness of your choice!
Sarcasm Note:  I was just setting here thinking, "why don't I just get a bowl of cookie dough ice cream?" I know, it's not as cute but if it's an emergency, you have my permission to go straight for it!
