Twinkie Jell-O Dessert PB & B Bread S’more Berry Decadence Pie Snickerdoodle Cake and Creamy Cinnamon Frosting

_______________________________________

Twinkie Jell-O Dessert

10 Twinkies 2 (3 oz.) packages orange Jell-O (I used sugar free) 1 c. boiling water 1 (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple in juice, drained 1 c. lemon-lime soda 1 quart vanilla ice cream, at room temperature, (I used sugar free)

Arrange Twinkies in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. In a bowl, mix together the Jell-O and boiling water, stirring until dissolved. Stir in the pineapple and soda. Blend in the ice cream and beat until smooth with a whisk or an electric mixer on low speed. Pour the Jell-O mixture over the Twinkeis and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, until set.

To serve, cut into squares and serve chilled Serves 12. _______________________________________

PB & B Bread

1/2 cup butter, softened 1 cup white sugar 2 eggs (beaten) 1/2 cup peanut butter (any kind) 2 bananas, mashed 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda

1. Preheat oven to 325 F. Lightly grease a 9 x 5 loaf pan. 2. In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. 3. Add eggs to creamed mixture and beat well. 4. In a small bowl, sift together the flour and baking soda. 5. Stir in peanut butter, bananas, flour and baking soda until well blended. 6. Pour into loaf pan and smooth out. 7. Bake at 325 F for 70 minutes or until a toothpick or wooden skewer inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. 8. Let cool a few minutes, and then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.(I elevate my wire racks to 6 inches off the surface and put them on paper bags to absorb the moisture from the steam of the bread. This keeps the bread from getting soggy on the bottom.

Placing the two cake-pans in the oven side by side, bake until they are golden brown, about 27 - 29 minutes.

Remove from oven and cool for 10 minutes before inverting them onto another rack and allow them to cool completely.

Meanwhile, prepare Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting. Frost. Place in refrigerator until the frosting sets, 20 min. Keep refrigerated.

Creamy Cinnamon Frosting

Blend in up to 1 tablespoon more of the milk if the frosting seems too stiff to spread easily. _______________________________________
