Three-Ingredient Shortbread Cookies
This recipe is so easy and so tasty! You can dip half the cookie in chocolate once they have cooled completely. I have made these for Christmas cookies by dipping in chocolate and sprinkling with pecans. I have also used pink chocolate for baby showers.
Kelly's Slow Cooker Beef, Mushroom, and Barley Soup
I came up with this slow cooker recipe for beef, barley, and mushroom soup after tinkering with a few other recipes. I've added celery and leeks before, but all it did was make the soup more chunky; it didn't really change the flavor.
Delicious Cranberry Sauce
Just the right amount of sweet and tart. So perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
