Shortcake Recipe

 
Josh's birthday was yesterday and his dessert request changes each year. He isn't a big fan of anything super sweet and mostly likes desserts with fruit included. This year he chose strawberry shortcake. Easy enough! I planned to make the entire dessert store bought but I couldn't find any shortcake at Walmart. After searching simple recipes online I found this one by Bless This Mess Please. I had all ingredients so I thought it was worth a try. It was very easy and delicious! Josh said in the future this is what I should use as the shortcake when we have this dessert. 

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup sugar

1/4 cup melted butter (I put in fridge for 5 min after melting to cool off)

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup milk (I used oatmilk and it worked just fine)


Recipe:

Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 8x8 inch baking pan.

In a medium bowl add sugar and melted butter and stir til combined.

Add the egg and vanilla and stir to combine.

Add flour, baking powder and salt and mix with an electric mixer.

Add milk and beat again until it is smooth without clumps.

Place batter in prepared pan and bake for 20-25 min. Mine took the full 25 min. Check that it springs back when lightly touched in the middle.

Remove from oven and let cool for 30 min before placing on serving dish or wire rack.

Slice cake and top with cool whip and strawberries.


Easy and a great/simple summer dessert!

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe

 I had a few hours to myself today and decided to search for a good single serving chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found one by cookingclassy.com and thankfully it turned out so great! It was similar to the taste and size of Crumbl Cookies chocolate chip cookie (they are my favorite!) The dough is a very crumbly consistency so I recommend once you have your baking sheet lined with parchment paper to just dump it on top and form it into a large disc. I had a hard time trying to get the dough to come together so I opted to do this instead. See the recipe below! Ingredients: 2 TBSP butter (I used unsalted) 3 TBSP packed light-brown sugar. 1 pinch of salt. 1 TBSP whisked egg (crack egg in bowl and mix up well then scoop out 1 TBSP and add to your bowl.) 1/4 tsp vanilla. 1/3 cup all purpose flour. 1/8 tsp baking soda. 3-4 TBSP chocolate chips.  Recipe: Melt butter in microwave until only a little left is unmelted. mix together so that all is melted. Place butter in fridge to cool s...

Simple Chicken Tortilla Soup Recipe

 My husband found this recipe a couple months ago and made it on a gloomy Saturday. It's been in my head to make it again with leftover chicken and this week I decided to do just that! I try and stretch a whole chicken to 3 meals since we can get one chicken from Walmart for under $6. It makes for a very budget friendly week of groceries when we do this. The last time we had a whole chicken my husband also saved the broth and that's the broth I used to make this soup. It was SO flavorful! The original recipe comes from All Recipes and I will link it HERE , but I did switch it up and exclude a few things.  Enjoy! Ingredients: 1 onion, chopped. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 1 TBSP olive oil. 2 tsp chili powder. 1 (28 oz) can crushed tomato. 1 (10.5 oz) can chicken broth (or homemade). 1 1/4 cups water. 2 cans whole kernel corn, drained. 2 cans black beans, drained and rinsed. 1/4 cup cilantro, plus extra for garnish. 2 cups shredded chicken, cooked.  Corn muffins or tortilla chi...
