Winnie's Sweet Slaw

This yummy recipe comes from my co-worker at the Blue Mountain Eagle Winnie Browning. It’s easy to put together and has a nice zing and crunch to it. I’m definitely adding this one to my list!

Ingredients:
medium head of cabbage, chopped
6 oz. almonds
3-4 green onions, sliced
2 granny smith apples, diced
10 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled
5 oz. dried cranberries
1 C. poppy seed dressing, such as Kraft
      
Mix all together. Enjoy!
Serves about 10.

Cookie Dough Dip

At an office potluck party, we were calling this the "deadly" cookie dough dip, because it is so delicious we could hardly stop eating it - good thing there were plenty here to share it! Thanks go out to Marissa Williams, the Eagle publisher, for bringing it and giving me the recipe!
This dip is great with graham crackers, chocolate graham crackers or vanilla wafers. It's just like cookie dough, but no eggs or flour in the dip.

Ingredients:
1/2 C. butter, softened
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
2 T. vanilla
1 C. powdered sugar
2 T. brown sugar
1 C. chocolate chips
1 C. toffee chips (or, if you love them, add the whole bag)

Directions:
Cream the softened butter and cream cheese with electric mixer. Add vanilla, powdered sugar and brown sugar and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and toffee chips. Serve with graham crackers.
