Peach and Pear Surprise

Well, today is Monday...

But then this afternoon...
My very best friend Karen called me..
We talked for almost an hour...It is always a wonderful thing to talk to her..
She always brightens my day... And I feel so blessed to have a true blue friend through thick and thin.. But the reality is.. there has been no thin...We are going to be bff to the end.. Real Lucy and Ethel...
ok...Time to get to the recipe.. I could talk about Karen all day...
I did not have all the ingredients for her cobbler recipe that she shared with me...
Time to look through the pantry... and here is what I found...

Ok.. I know this sounds crazy... But think about it...

What ingredients are in an apple crisp??

Oatmeal, flour, brown sugar...(and today chocolate chips)...

The same exact ingredients that are in cookie mix...

So here is what I did...

Opened both cans of fruit... And cut up and added to the dish.. including juice...
Then opened the bag of cookie mix... and spread on top...

As you can see I added some pats of butter...
Baked @ 350 for 45 minutes...
And...

And it is so good...

The chocolate chips melted through it..
Next time I am going to try with cherries....
Oh my.. that just seems delicious...
Enjoy!!!

Baking cookies with my son

Children are one of the best blessings in life
God blessed me with two beautiful children
My daughter is 26 and my son is 12 years old
I have always cooked with my children...
I think that it not only fun to do with them...
But also a useful tool that can benefit them ...
While I was making the lasagna yesterday...
My son decided he wanted to make cookies...
Even though it was from a mix...
He did them all by himself..
So I thought it was only fair to show him making cookies on my blog...

The cookies actually came out really good..
But unfortunately...
We eat them quicker than we bake them...
