Entering Contest and Recipe

Found another contest on a blog (thanks!) that I am now entering. Hence the post of this recipe. This recipe actually came from my sister. It's one of my favorites and it is soooo easy to make that ANYONE can make it.

Frozen Peppermint Cheesecake

40 Chocolate vanilla wafers or cream-filled chocolate cookies, finely crushed

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

1 cup crushed hard peppermint candy

3 drops red liquid food coloring

2 cups whipping cream, whipped

Combine first 3 ingredients; firmly press onto bottom and 1 inch up sides of a springform pan. Chill. Beat cream cheese at high speed with an electric mixer until creamy. Stir in condensed milk, crushed candy, and red food coloring. Fold in whipped cream. Pour into prepared crust. Cover and freeze until firm.

My notes: I don't own a springform pan so I use just a good ole pie pan and it works great! Also, if you have left over filling you can drop spoonfuls onto wax paper covered cookie sheet. Pop it into your freezer and then you either have mini desserts or you can also drop one in on top of a mug of hot chocolate. YUM!

Another big thank you to my sister for introducing me to this recipe!

Oh My Gosh!!!

I just can't believe it! What, you ask, is it that I can't believe? Well.....I WON something. Well not actually "something". YARN! Alison over at The Blue Blog and author of Charmed Knits (see link in sidebar) was having a Charmed Knits give away. Of course, I entered every one of them but knew I probably wouldn't win because I very rarely win anything. I have been reading her blog since before her book was written and have enjoyed every post. I went over there today to see if she had updated and there in print was my name next to one of the items!!!! Go here and here to see what I won.

Alison, thank you so much!
