No-Bake Pretzel Bars

     As you may have noticed, I rarely make desserts, but every so often a quick and simple sweet treat is worth it.
    The recipe comes together very quickly thankfully.
 

Ingredients
    2 cups thin pretzel sticks
    3/4 cups of melted salted butter
    1 1/2 cups of confectioners' sugar
    1 1/4 cup of smooth peanut butter
    1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips









Directions
    1.  In a food processor, pulse pretzels until it becomes a fine crumble.
    2.  Stir together pretzels, melted butter, sugar and 1 cup of peanut butter.
    3. Evenly press mixture in an ungreased 9x9 pan.
    4. In a microwavable bowl, melt the remaining peanut butter and chocolate chips, stirring every 30 seconds.
    5. Pour chocolate over pretzel mixture and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.


Changes I Made!
   The salt content in the pretzels made me stir clear of salted butter and use unsalted butter.


  This recipe is from Trisha's Table.

Baked Potato Soup

   Baked potato soup is one of the first soups I learned how to make, and this recipe is my go to recipe, especially in the middle of winter, because most of the ingredients I have on hand at all times. Ingredients    2 medium potatoes, bakes and cooled    1 can of chicken broth    2 tbs of sour cream    1/8 tsp of pepper    1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese Directions    Peel potatoes and cut into 1/2 inch cubes.    Place 1/2 of the potato in a blender and with chicken broth.    Pour mix into sauce pan and add remaining potato, sour cream and pepper.    Cook over low heat until heated through.    Garnish with shredded cheddar cheese, and whatever else you want. Changes I made!    I do not mess with this recipe except what I add on top when I eat. This recipe is from Taste of Home.
