Each of my kiddos have favorites for their own particular reasons. Jacob loves meat, as long as there's no vegetables touching it. Jenica loves my sour cream potatoes recipe, although she really isn't too picky and doesn't mind veggies. (She's a lot like me in that aspect. Oh, and we both love seafood, unlike my other 2 kids.) Jillian loves noodles, as long as there are no meat or vegetables near them. She's still picky, but it's getting better. In fact, she came home from school the other day and announced that she likes peas now. This means that she'll now eat two vegetables: corn and peas. We are making progress! (Blessing #212)
Another one of our favorite desserts is White Chocolate Pie, which is a recipe I got from the Quick Cookin' Magazine that I subscribed to as a gift from my mom (thanks, mom! - #213) when I was working full time. It was full of quick & easy recipes. And many of the recipes from the magazine made it into my recipe box. Including this one for White Chocolate Pie. It's amazing!
White Chocolate Pie
1 pkg. (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
3/4 c. powdered sugar
1 carton (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed, divided (I used my homemade whipped cream)
1 chocolate crumb crust (I used Oreo this time)
1 1/4 c. cold milk
1 small pkg. Instant White Chocolate Pudding
Food Coloring (I used purple to make "lavendar" this time)
Mini Chocolate Chips
In mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 1/4 c. whipped cream. Spread over crust. In same bowl, mix milk and pudding. Beat on low 2 minutes. Pour over cream cheese mixture.
Refrigerate 2 hours or til firm. Tint remaining whipped cream. (I use pink when I make it for Valentine's Day and green when I make it for St. Patrick's Day.) Spread whipped cream over cream cheese and pudding layers. Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips. (The more, the better, in my opinion.) Makes 8 servings.
Mini chocolate chips are the best! Three cheers for whoever came up with the idea! (#214)They're perfect for sprinkling on top of ice cream, adding to cookies, on top of frosted cupcakes, in muffins, in cheesecakes, in pancakes, in banana bread, and sprinkling on top of White Chocolate Pie.
