Chocolate Fluff

Andrew loves his sweets as much as his daddy and this was one of those recipes that came out of necessity when we didn’t have any ice cream in the house!

 

Chocolate Fluff

Ingredients:

-Cool Whip

-Chocolate Syrup

Directions:

Mix the two ingredients together to get the flavor of chocolate into the cool whip.  Keep chilled.

Can use this on its own (andrew’s favorite) or you can top on graham crackers, or use as a dip for fruit.

Pumpkin Waffles

A while back, I picked up some canned pumpkin that was on sale and decided I would use it when the time felt right.  This recipe is adapted from Ms. Kim’s Famous Pumpkin Waffles.  The kids have loved these and they make an easy breakfast for days on end. 

The kids really like this as a picnic breakfast!

Ingredients:

2 cups flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

½ teaspoon salt

3 tablespoons sugar

3 beaten eggs

1 ¾ cup milk

¾ mashed pumpkin

½ cup oil

 

Directions:

1.        Mix together all the dry ingredients in one bowl.

2.       In a separate bowl mix the wet ingredients and pumpkin. 

3.       Combine the two mixtures and mix well.

4.       Cook in a hot waffle iron.

5.       Serve with maple syrup or honey!
