Stuffed Bell Peppers

And I have made it here twice today!!!! This time it is for my recipe for stuffed bell peppers.

Ingredients:
4 Large Green Bell Peppers
1.5 ground beef
1c cooked couscous
2-3 Tbls Worcestershire Sauce (Lea & Perrins in the best)
1/2 - 3/4c ketchup
1/8tsp black pepper
2 cans Tomato Sauce
Mixed Shredded cheese

Prep:
Brown the ground beef
Cook couscous according to package directions
Add Worchestershire Sauce
Add 1/2 c Ketchup
Mix in cooked couscous
**if more Ketchup is needed, add the remained 1/4 cup**

Hollow out the bell peppers and use a spoon to scoop out the remaining veins and seeds.

Fill the bell pepper about half way and put a layer of cheese. Fill the bell pepper the rest of the way with meat mixture. Continue with the other 3 bell peppers. Place in the crockpot. Pour both cans of sauce over the peppers. Cook 3 hrs on high or 6-7 hours on low. Top with more cheese when serving!

Most amazing cake ever - if you can call it cake!

Ok... it has been awhile since I have been on here. I found a new recipe that I have been itching to try and share. It is for Chess Bars or Gooey Butter Cake. They are one in the same. If you are a Paula Dean fan you may very well recognize this recipe. It is amazingly simple :) And it is in the oven right now!!!!!

1 Box yellow cake mix
1 8 oz bar of cream cheese (softened)
3 eggs
1/2 cup butter melted
1 lb (4 cups) of powdered sugar

Sounds amazing right?? Keep reading....
Prep:
Preheat oven to 300
Spray 9x11 baking dish with cooking spray

Combine:
Mix the cake mix, 1 egg, and 1/2 cup butter together. This will form a very soft dough. Press into prepped baking dish till even.


Next:
Mix your powdered sugar, 2 eggs, and cream cheese together till it is smooth and creamy. (try not to taste!)
Pour over dough mixture and spread evenly.

Bake:
Pop into oven for 40-50 minutes or until top is browning.
