Tasty Thursday
Trista over at The Pumpkin Patch has started a Tasty Thursday meme that I think is a great idea! I am in such a rut and in need of some new recipes to try out. You can read more about this here. So join in on the fun and post your favorite tried and true recipes!
This week is all about desserts. I have so many tried and trues that its hard to choose just one. So I let my hubby pick his favortie ~
Taffy Apple Pizza
(a Pampered Chef recipe)
1 pkg (20 oz) refrigerated cookie dough
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp vanilla
2 med. Granny Smith apples
1 cup lemon-lime soda
cinnamon
1/4 cup caramel ice cream topping
1/2 cup chopped peanuts
Preheat oven to 350. Remove 1/2 cookie dough and reserve for another use. Using a rolling pin, roll dough into a 14 inch circle on the 15 inch baking stone. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cookie is lightly browned. Let cool 10 minutes then loosen cookie from stone. Cool completely.
Blend peanut butter, cream cheese, brown sugar and vanilla together until smooth. Spread on cookie. Peel, core and slice apples and then dip in lemon-lime soda to prevent from browning. Arrange slices on the cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. Heat caramel topping slightly and drizzle over apples. Sprinkle with nuts.
Enjoy!
