Zucchini Bread

More bread? YES
You don't even have to like zucchini to like this! So why not try it? :)

Here's everything your going to need!
Vegetable oil
Eggs
Sugar
Flour
Vanilla
Salt
Baking powder
Baking soda
pecans (optional)
Zucchini

Start by combining 1cup of oil, 3eggs, 2cups of sugar, 2cups of grated zucchini, and 2teaspoons of vanilla in a large bowl







Then add 3cups of flour, 1teaspoon of baking soda, 1/4teaspoon of baking powder, 1teaspoon of salt, and 3teaspoons of vanilla
                                                Optional
                                                        1cup of pecans


Take the pecans, and chop them up as finely as desired
(Works best if you don't chop them all at once) 

Now your going to need a loaf pan, and lightly grease and flour it

Then pour the batter into the pan and cook at 350degrees for 1hour and 25minutes (or until done)
Check to see if your breads done by sticking a tooth pick straight through the top, if it comes out clean, your bread is ready, if theres some uncooked batter add 5more minutes until ready
And this is what your finished bread should look like!
Enjoy <3 :)

Monkey Bread!

     How do these two things possibly go together??  That's what your gonna find out :)

So this is my grandmas monkey bread recipe, most people I know have never heard of monkey bread but if you look it up, its there! But I'm going to show you my grandmas recipe because ITS AWESOME and Delicious!
                                          
So you start with a bundt pan, spray it lightly with pam
Then your going to need 3 or 4 cans of biscuts. This parts kind of weird, but just do it! Cut each one up into four pieces
In a big plastic bag, put 2/3cup of sugar, and 1/3Tablespoon of cinnimon, then put the biscut fourhts into the bag and shake until all the biscuts are covered (it works best if you dont do them all at once)





Fill the bundt pan with the coated biscut pieces

In a small pot your going to need to melt and then bring to a boil,
1cup of sugar
1Tablespoon of cinnimon
1/2stick of marigrine (it doesnt work if its butter it HAS to be marigrine)
When its done, pour it over the biscuts and then cook the whole thing for 35minutes at 350degrees
AND THIS IS WHAT YOU GET

mhmmm....

yummy :) enjoy it guys<3

Simple and Yummy :)


Just LOOK at that weather, some of you are probably like OH GOD THATS AWFUL, and some are like OMG HORRAY!!! Either way you have to agree its cold. And when the weathers cold do you know what that means?? It means its time, time for HOT CHOCOLATE!



Now most of you probably make it with instant powder, you know warm up a cup of milk in the microwave, when its out stir a packet of 'hot chocolate'. Thats the lazy way and once you've tried this you'll realize how much better this way is and tastes. It may take a little more time then that way you do it, but ITS WORTH IT!



So I just used Ghirardelli, notice the can says 'unsweetend' don't worry, it'll have plenty if sugar in a second. So *follow the measurements for your cocoa*, mine says 1 1/2 Tablespoons of the powder









See! Here's the sugar :) Another 1 1/2 Tablespoons*






I don't know about yours, but if I don't mix my sugar and cocoa very well together, when I pour it in the milk it creates chunchs, normally this would be fine, but since its unsweetend it tastes gross!! So just to be safe mix them VERY WELL together







Duh, milk, some weirdo's use water, but well all know milk is the better option. So 1cup* of any milk you have, we have fat free :P








Okay, take your milk and put it in a small whatever that things called (you see why I include pictures now) turn on the heat, and before it even gets hot, pour your mixture into the milk







Make sure you mix it well and keep it on long enough so it's nice and hot! Pour it into your favorite mug and enjoy <3





This is sooo good and I really suggest you try it, obviously its pretty easy, your other blogger, Christina, she can't cook for her life. I bet you she could do this! So cmon, you know you wana :)
