Cheesy Corn Casserole

Oh so cheesy and delicious! Not a health food, though  :(

Lu loves this & can make it all by herself!

I made it a few years ago for our "Friendsgiving" celebration, and the men especially loved it!

Cheesy Corn Casserole

1 can of whole kernel corn, undrained
1 can of creamed corn, undrained
1 c. elbow macaroni, uncoooked
1 c. (8 ozs.) Velveeta, cut into cubes
6 T. butter/margarine, cubed
salt/pepper, to taste

Combine all and pour into a greased casserole dish. Baked for 1 hour at 350*, stirring halfway.

Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites

We made them for Christmas baking and I just made another batch today, as we are on our 1700th snow day. They have just a lil "grit" to them, thanks to the brown sugar, and are just yummy!


Peanut Butter Pretzel Bites

1 c. creamy peanut butter
2 T. softened butter
1/2 c. powdered sugar
3/4 c. brown sugar
Pretzels
Semi-sweet Choco. chips or chocolate almond bark

Mix peanut butter and butter until creamy. Add sugars to combine. Test roll a few little balls; if they roll easily without sticking to your hands, they're ready to go. If not, add a little more of each sugar. Roll balls, about 1 tsp. each, and then sandwich between 2 pretzels. Stick the pretzel sandwiches in  the freezer for about 30 mins. After they are cold, remove from freezer and dip 1/2 in the chocolate.
