Castle cake

I had an order for this big castle cake, which I wasn't sure if I could do. The main part I was worried about was the towers. I didn't want them falling over before the customer came to pick it up. But,..... I got that problem worked out and I was pleased with the cake. So was the 16 yo girl who ordered it :-)

Snowballs in summer!!!

I got this recipe from my Aunt Millie. They are delicious :-) Nice and chocolatey and soft!

SNOWBALLS

2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
5 Tbsp cocoa powder
3 cups rolled oats
coconut to roll the balls in

Melt butter in medium sized saucepan. Add sugar, milk and cocoa. Bring to boil and then remove from heat. Add rolled oats. Let cool completely. Form into balls and roll in coconut.

I've also done 2 more Hannah Montana cakes. That's a popular one with the pre-teen girls!

Hashbrown Casserole

I got this recipe from my friend, Carolyn. She moved away a few years ago and I really miss her! We'd often make this when our families got together for barbeques.

Hashbrown Casserole

1 pkg frozen hashbrowns
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 can Cream of Chicken soup
1/2 can of milk

Mix all ingredients and put in casserole dish. Bake at 350 deg for 45 minutes.

YUM!

My kids don't like onion, so we never add that to our casserole. Tastes just as good!
