Most of us have that recipe we always use for pitch ins and cookouts. Mine is my super easy cobbler. So last time I made it, I thought I would change it up a little bit. But there's not really much you can do with my cobbler recipe, so I figured I would change how it was served.
Start off with a jar of peaches, a stick of butter, and a box of Jiffy cake mix. You'll also need small jelly jars.
Using a slotted spoon, fill the jelly jars about 1/2 to 2/3 full of peaches. Some of the peach juice/syrup is fine, but not too much. Top each jar off with a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Next, divide the cake mix evenly among the jars. Top each off with a pat of butter. (not margarine!)
Bake at 350 until the tops brown. When the cobblers have cooled, add lids for easy transport. Tip: to make baking easier, I set the jars inside a baking dish for easy transport to and from the oven. To carry them into work, I put the full jars back into the Ball box the jars came in!
Sorry there's not a picture; I forgot to take one before I brought them into work. And well, once they got to the office, they didn't stay around too long! These little jars were perfect individual servings during our all day meeting. Those who wanted to heat theirs up could just pop them in the microwave for 20 seconds and have hot cobbler!

2, 3, 5 Easy Dessert
Are you looking for the Tuesday feature "I canned a lOTT, now I'm baking in my Bistro"? click here
I think I've dug myself in a hole here. I've been cooking so much lately, the husband is starting to expect all these great meals all the time! AHHH! Sometimes, dinner is simply baked chicken with some potatoes and veggies. What can you do? Easy...whip up a great dessert that seems like you spent a lot of time on it. Shhh...he'll never know the difference!
Dessert for 2; 3 Ingredients; Done in 5 minutes
What you'll need:
1 box instant pudding
1 roll of Oreos (or 1/3 of a regular package)
2 cups milk
To begin, crush up the Oreos in a gallon size Ziploc bag.
Put 1/8 c (or 2 Tablespoons) crushed Oreos in the bottom of a small ramekin.
In a medium bowl, combine two cups milk with contents of pudding box and mix well with a whisk.
Fill ramekins with just under 1/2 c pudding.
Sprinkle more Oreo crumbs on top
DONE! Yes, that's right; you're done! Refrigerate until time to eat or serve right away. Now, you'll have some extra pudding and Oreo crumbs. I guess you could fix some for your kids. Or, eat the evidence. I'll never tell :)
When I make these for company that just shows up (we all have those friends), I make them in these double-shot glasses I have left over from the days I used to be able to handle two shots...of anything. If I'm really trying to impress, I'll garnish with a piece of orange rind, or a fresh mint sprig if I have it around. Kind of fancy for what we normally call Dirt Pudding!
