Ritz Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookies

These are always a hit because they are so good. Who can say no to peanut butter and chocolate?!

Ingredients:

1 (24 oz) Chocolate Almond Bark
2 sleeves of Ritz crackers
peanut butter
powdered sugar (optional)

Melt the almond bark in a double boiler over low heat, stirring occasionally.

In the mean time put peanut butter on a Ritz cracker then put another Ritz on top, sandwich style.
Dip the sandwiched peanut butter Ritz in the almond bark. Place on wax paper covered cookie sheet. Allow the chocolate covered crackers to set. I ususally let them set for abour 30 minutes then I put them in an air tight container.

Note: Use the powdered sugar to stir into the peanut butter if it is too thin or runny to stay on the crackers. Alot of the natural peanut butters are a very thin consistancy.

The BEST Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream

Oh my. This is good. I like strawberry. A lot. But I don't usually choose strawberry ice cream if there are several flavors (like chocolate) available. I got this recipe from my daughter and IT IS GOOD! I would choose this! The Best Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream makes 3 cups (I have doubled it) Ingredients 1 1/2 cups strawberries, hulled and diced 2 Tbsp honey 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 tsp lemon juice 1 cup heavy whipping cream 1/2 cup half and half 1 tsp vanilla extract Instructions In large bowl mix strawberries, honey, sugar, and lemon juice.

Stir just until combined. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker, and follow you...
