4 eggs (beaten)

1 tsp. salt

8 oz. sour cream

2 cup grated cheddar cheese

� cup butter (melted)

� tsp. pepper

� tsp. butter flavoring (optional)

Mix all ingredients and press into a 9 inch x 13 inch baking pan. Bake at 350� for 15 minutes.

8 oz. cream cheese

2/3 cup powdered sugar

Beat and spread as second layer.

7 oz. pkg. instant pudding*

2� cups milk

Mix all ingredients. Beat until the mixture is thick. Spread as third layer.

8 oz. Cool Whip

extra nuts

Spread Cool Whip as fourth layer. Sprinkle with nuts.

* I prefer to use pistachio flavored pudding, my brother likes chocolate with milk chocolate chips on the top. I have friends that have used butterscotch.

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup peanut butter

1 cup shortening

1 tsp. baking soda

2 tbsp. hot water

2� cup all purpose flour

2 eggs

extra granulated sugar (probably less than � cup)

Mix  first 8 ingredients. Form into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Roll balls in extra sugar. Place on baking sheet, flatten with fork. Bake at 350� for 7 - 10 minutes.

Notes - Placing cookies on a cooling rack for cooling, this will keep the bottoms of them from over cooking.

Make sure the oven is preheated.

Instead of using a fork to flatten the cookies, use milk chocolate star candies.

� cup all purpose flour

3 cups meat broth*

3 cups cooked cubed meat*

* Meats may be which ever meat that you prefer, just use the matching broth. I have found that I can use chicken broth with canned tuna though.
