Strawberry Delight

Many thanks to Tonya H. for this great and versatile dessert recipe!
It's good for brunch, too!!

Strawberry Delight

2 cans crescent rolls (I use store brand. Not Buttery roll)
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 stick margarine
1 can strawberry pie filling

1. Cream together sugar and cream cheese.
2. In a sprayed 9x13 pan, roll out 1 can of crescent rolls in bottom of pan.
Pat out so there are no seams.
3. Spread cream cheese/sugar mixture evenly over rolls.
4. Next pour straberry pie filling over mixture. Spread evenly.
5. Roll out another can of crescent rolls and place on top.
6. Cut margarine into pats and place evenly on top of rolls. I usually place
it along edges and into perforations. Can also half the pats.
7. Bake @ 350 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until top is golden brown.

GLAZE:

1 cup powdered sugar, 3 Tb. milk

Stir until smooth. Drizzle over cobbler.
(This dessert was initially made with apple pie filling. If using apple filling, I cut up apples from the can to make then bite size. I also sprinkle a cinnamon and sugar mixture that I keep in a shaker over the top before baking. You can substitute any fruit filling you like. My family likes strawberry best. ~ Tonya H.)

Note from Connie:

This is a favorite of our Sunday school class. I make it with no pie filling and sprinkled it with the cinnamon and sugar mixture like Tonya mentioned.
I have made it with cherry pie filling and peach pie filling, cutting the peaches like Tonya suggested if apple pie filling. Pillsbury Crescent Creations work really well for this recipe. I usually have a coupon for these.

Tonya has served us the apple version before, and it is great! I can't wait to try it with the strawberry pie filling!!

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Georgia Cornbread Cake

I clipped this recipe several years ago from American Profile, which is a small magazine insert that come with our local newspaper, The Pontotoc Progress. It is yummy, yummy, yummy! I love the story that accompanied the recipe and was delighted when a Google searched turned up the same article on the web! Larry took this to work, and he said it was a huge hit with everyone! Enjoy! Georgia Cornbread Cake Georgia Cornbread Cake Recipe of Stella T. Thompson from American Profile "I am 86 years old and have been cooking since I was 9.

Dough Burgers

Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant! When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...
