Candy Bar Cake
Last night a good friend brought dinner over. Included in this dinner was the most delicious cake I have ever eaten! It goes something like this:
bake a regular cake following the direcions on the box. When it's all cooled off, pour a bunch of caramel on top of the cake. After that, put a bunch of Cool Whip on top. Then crush up a billion Babyfinger candy bars into teny tiny bits. Then spread them all over the top! Put it in the fridge until you can't stand it anymore and you must pull it out and eat the whole thing!

Stuffed Bell Peppers
4-6 Large Bell Peppers
1 lb ground beef
1 lb ground sausage (like Jimmy Deans)
2 cans tomato sause (or spaghetti sauce)
1 pkg. frozen seasoning blend
1 cup cooked rice
Brown the meats and drain. Set aside.
Cook the rice. Add to the meat.
Saute the Seasoning Blend. Add the meat and rice mixture to this.
Cut the tops off the peppers and get all the seeds out. Boil them for about 3-5 minutes; until they are soft.
Remove the peppers and let them dry upside down on a paper towel until they are cool enough to handle.
Place the peppers in a baking dish. Fill each pepper with the rice/meat mixture. Fill to the top!
Pour the tomato sauce all over the peppers and then pour some more in the bottom of the dish.
Bake for about 30-45 minutes on 350.
You will probably have some leftover meat mixture..it's ok, because it is essentially Dirty Rice that can be eaten as a side dish the next day!
