No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies
These no-bake peanut butter cookies were always served for school lunch. After marrying, I got the recipe from one of the cooks and have made it many times. This cookie is sometimes made with cocoa powder, but I like this recipe better; it doesn't use any.
Pizza Dough Pretzels
These pizza dough pretzels are perfect for when you suddenly get a craving for soft pretzels and you're not at the mall — you won't need to wait for the dough to rise if you use store-bought pizza dough! Serve, of course, with mustard.
German Schwenkbraten
Schwenkbraten was a family favorite when we were stationed in Germany with the Air Force. The pork chops are delicious with potato salad, a baguette, or crusty rolls. Hope you enjoy!
