INSTRUCTIONS
 

CHURRO COOKIES

  • Cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar together. 
  • Add eggs and vanilla. Mix together. 
  • In a separate bowl, combine the purpose flour, cornstarch, cinnamon, baking soda and baking powder.
  • Add dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Mix just until all combined. 

CINNAMON SUGAR DUSTING

  • Combine the sugars and the cinnamon in a separate bowl. 
  • Roll the dough into 2 ½ inch balls. (I use my large cookie scoop)
  • Roll the cookie dough balls into the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.
  • Place cookie dough balls onto cookie sheet (lined with parchment paper or baking mats) 3 inches apart. (about 9-12 per sheet)
  • Bake 375 degrees F for 10 minutes. Cookies should be puffy and not browned. 
  • Allow cookies to cool at room temperature before frosting.

CINNAMON BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

  • In a mixer, beat the butter and shortening together. 
  • Add the vanilla and salt. Mix together. 
  • Slowly add the powdered sugar and water. Hold back a Tbsp of the water to make sure it’s the right consistency. Add the remaining water if the frosting is too thick. 
  • Beat on medium until the frosting is smooth. 
  • Add brown sugar and cinnamon. Mix until incorporated into the frosting. Will make the frosting grainy to resemble a churro. 

ASSEMBLY

  • Top the cooled cookies with cinnamon buttercream frosting. Sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top for that crunchy texture. 
  • Store in airtight container. Enjoy!

Swiss Chicken Casserole

This was an  easy & tasty casserole, My girls also loved it, which makes it a win win!  I served it with green beans and buttermilk biscuits, which was a great combination.  I have to admit that I forgot to buy the cream of chicken so I had to use the cream of mushroom that I had in the pantry.  I think it was still great!  6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts 6 slices Swiss cheese 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup 1/4 cup milk 2 cups herb-seasoned stuffing mix          (Pepperidge Farm Herb Blend is good) 1/4 cup butter Preheat oven to 350.  Arrange chicken in 12x8x2 baking dish.  Top with Swiss cheese slices.  Combine soup and milk and stir well.  Spoon mixture over chicken and sprinkle with stuffing mix.  Drizzle butter or margarine over crumbs.  Bake for 50 minutes and enjoy!

Euroflex Monster Floor Steam Cleaner Blue EZ1

Let me start by saying, I ordered this cleaner off of Amazon, as a refurbished product. When I received it, it was in great condition and was working appropriately.

There is no vacuum component to this cleaner. It is simple to use. There's no on/off button. It is turned on when plugging it in. The only controls on the unit are for the amount of steam. There is a washable cloth that is attached to the base by Velcro. The unit comes with four of these cloths, two for floors, two for carpets. To use: Pour water into the tank which is closed by a screw cap. No additives are needed as the steam will do the cleaning. To warm the water, simply plug in the unit. While warming, you must prepare your floors by vacuuming or sweeping. The green light will come on when the water is hot enough to start yo...
