Weeknight Chicken Cordon Bleu
This is a tasty and quick chicken cordon bleu recipe that is great for a weeknight when you want something yummy and don't have the time. Great over noodles.
Tart Cherry Cobbler
This requires a flaky pie dough instead of a drop biscuit style topping. If you want to use a refrigerator pie crust instead of making your own that works just fine and the end result is well worth it!
Grandma Tibbitts Sugar Cookies
This recipe was handed down from my great grandmother. It took a few years to figure out the exact measures. These cookies are very soft and if you want to use a cutter, the dough should be refrigerated a couple hours. I use a three inch biscuit cutter. You can also drop these if you are short on time. Sprinkle tops with colored sugar or whatever decorative confection you like. These are good plain also.
