Lemon Blueberry Drop Scones

These are really good fruity scones to serve at a dinner party. They're a bit lower in fat than other scone recipes as well. They're super moist, and have a nice authentic "scone" taste! The lemon and blueberry compliment each other very nicely in this recipe. 


Lemon Blueberry Drop Scones


Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 t baking powder
1 t grated lemon peel
1/2 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
1 cup lemon yogurt
1 egg
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup fresh OR frozen blueberries


Glaze Ingredients:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 T lemon juice
1/2 t grated lemon peel


In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon peel, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, combine the yogurt, egg and melted butter. Stir into flour mixture just until moistened. Fold in blueberries. 


Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto a greased baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 16 minutes or until lightly browned. Combine glaze ingredients, drizzle over warm scones.


*Do not thaw frozen blueberries




As you can see, one is already missing in this picture and this was right after I glazed them...you can probably guess how many are left now!

No Bake Peanut Butter Cookies

I'm not going to lie, I had no idea what a "no bake" was until a friend of mine told me his favorite cookies were no bakes (this was around Christmas time when I go cookie crazy!). So I looked up a recipe and ended up falling in LOVE with them. They're so quick to make. This recipe here took me (start to finish) 20 minutes to do. So if you want something sweet and have nothing in the pantry to snack on, just whip these up super quick (because you should have everything you need already at home!) and enjoy! No Bake Peanut Butter Cookies Ingredients: - 2 cups sugar - 1/4 cup margarine - 1/2 cup milk - 1 cup peanut butter - 1t vanilla - 3 cups rolled oats (old fashioned) In a large saucepan, mix sugar, margarine and milk; bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat.  Boil for one minute, stirring constantly.  Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until peanut butter is melted; stir in oats. Working quickly, drop spoonfuls on...

A "little bit of everything" cookie

I know it's been a while, but I try to get on here as much as I can, and sadly it's not as much as I wish I could be.  I had some spare time tonight though and thought it was time for some cookies to be made! I have another dinner recipe I want to share, "Drunken Pork chops" but i'll get to that another time. Cookies are way more important!  A "little bit of everything" cookie Ingredients: 3 c flour 1 T baking powder 1 T baking soda 1 T cinnamon 1 t salt 1 1/2 c butter (room temp) 1 1/2 c sugar 1 1/2 c brown sugar 3 eggs  1 T vanilla 3 c semisweet chocolate chips 3 c old-fashioned rolled oats 2 cups sweetened coconut flakes Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside. In another bowl (a LARGE one), beat the butter until smooth. Add the sugar and brown sugar and beat for 2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each...

The World's Best Meatloaf

Talk about a 3 year hiatus...whew. Well I figured I would make an attempt to get back into the swing of things (my baseball reference for the night!) and post a little something for you all to check out. Unfortunately, this is something I made earlier this week and did not snag a picture, but lets be honest, Meatloaf is hard to make look "picture perfect" but I will try to update this recipe with a picture next time I make it. *UPDATE: Picture is now attached. Enjoy! I debated whether or not I wanted to share this recipe with everyone because it's just THAT good, but I thought what the heck, everyone's taste buds should truly experience this. First I'm going to start off with I am NOT a ground beef lover at all. I try to avoid it as much as possible. But Matthew enjoys it, so alas, there I was in the kitchen the first time I made this recipe, grossed out and didn't know how I was going to get through this ordeal but it turned out pretty damn tasty. And...
