Crockpot Standing Up Pork Chops

4 Loin pork chops, lean
2 medium Onions, sliced (I only use 1)
1 teaspoon Butter (I use 2 tsp)
Salt & Pepper, to taste
Spices of your choice (I just use season all)

Stand chops in crockpot, thin side down. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and spices of your choice.

Cover with the onion slices, which have been
separated into rings. Place butter on top, and cook on LOW heat for 6 to 8 hours, or until chops are tender and onions are done.

The result is moist, tender chops with a deep brown color as if broiled in the oven.

1c. white sugar
3eggs
2c. grated carrots
1 1/3 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 c. flour
1c cooking oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/3 tsp. baking soda
1 1/3 tsp cinnamon

blend sugar and oil and add the eggs one at a time. Sift dry ingredients together and add gradually to the oil and egg mixture. Fold in carrots. Bake in a greased 9 by 13 pan at 300 for one hour. (It will seem like not enough dough for that size pan but it raises quite a bit)

Cream Cheese Icing
8 oz. cream cheese
2c. icing sugar
2 oz margarine or butter
1/2 tsp vanilla

Beat all ingredients together and spread over cooled cake. Very moist and tasty.
