Grease a 12 inch pizza pan. Make 1 box of Betty Crocker triple chunk brownie mix as directed on box. Spread mix on pan. Bake 26-30 minutes. Cool completely. In a bowl mix 16oz of Betty Crocker chocolate frosting with 1/3 cup of crunchy or creamy peanut butter. Spread on pizza. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of recces pieces onto the pizza. Enjoy.

Zebra Cookies

In a microwave bowl, microwave 1/3 cup butter and 6oz of unsweetened chocolate until it can be stirred smooth. I recommend heating it for 30 seconds at a time. Stir 14oz of sweetened condensed milk. Put in 1 pouch Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix (1lb 1.5oz size ) and 1tsp of cinnamon. Use a tbs of dough for each cookie. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 6-7 minutes at 350 degrees. Immediately press a Hershey Hug chocolate on the center of each cookie. Cool cookies for five minutes then remove from cookie sheet. It takes about 1 hour for the chocolates to harden.

I still have some leftover treats and another lady is coming tonight and my Grandma and Grandpa ( hi :) ) are going to buy some. I decided to write some of the recipes of the most popular things and add some pictures.

I found this recipe and I really like it.  So do my siblings and neighbors.  I usually don't put in the walnuts.

Also you can put mint chips or peanut butter chips in place of the chocolate chips.

A litte introduction thingie...

Hi.  I'm the cupcake princess.  I'm 11 years old and the oldest of six, so I cook a lot.  I think cooking is fun and I hope you like some of my recipes.  The things I make most are cookies and cupcakes because I like to sell them to the neighbors.
