postheadericon Homemade Banana Pudding



Our Homeschool Home



This is my favorite July 4th recipe to make! Nothing says "American" to me like banana pudding. Even those who don't like banana pudding rant and rave about how great this is. It is very different than other recipes so enjoy!






*Ingredients*








  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese




  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 4 bananas, sliced
  • 1/2 (12 ounce) package vanilla wafers


*Directions*



1. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. 

2. Beat in condensed milk, pudding mix, cold milk and vanilla until smooth. Fold in 1/2 of the whipped topping.

3. Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch dish with vanilla wafers. 

4. Arrange sliced bananas evenly over wafers. Spread with pudding mixture. Top with remaining whipped topping. Chill.

postheadericon The Best Homemade Chocolate Chip Cookies

This recipe is easy and to die for! So yummy! It's great to have your kids help too!





*Ingredients*
1 cup butter (not margarine) softened
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups flour
1 12oz package chocolate chips (I like dark or semisweet)
(For choco chunk cookies use 2 7oz chocolate bars chopped instead of chips)

*Directions*
1. Heat oven to 375
2. Cream butter and sugars. 
3. Add eggs and vanilla and beat well. 
4. Mix in salt, baking powder, baking soda, and flour. 
5. Add chocolate. Mold into golf-size balls and place 2in apart on ungreased cookie sheet. 
6. Press slightly. Bake 7 min. Remove immediately from cookie sheet. Cool.

*NOTE: I always take mine out of the oven a minute early so they're soft and chewy when they cool.
