Easiest Ever Peach Cake

Last week my husband informed me that we needed to bring a dessert to a party we were going to attend. I didn't feel like shopping so I looked at what I had in the pantry. I searched on-line for a recipe that I could put together with the ingredients I already had. Nothing seemed to match exactly, so this is a variation on a few different recipes I threw together. It was so well received, my husband ate most of the cake and I had to make a second one for the party. This comes out so unbelievably moist!

1 box white cake mix
1 can peach pie filling
3 eggs
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1 tbl. flour
1 tbl. cinnamon
2 tbl. melted butter

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 13x9 inch cake pan. Beat the eggs in a large bowl, add pie filling and cake mix and mix until combined. Spread evenly in pan. Mix remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle on top of the cake. Bake in the oven for 35 minutes or until the center is cooked through. Allow to cool before serving.

HEATH BAR DESSERT

This is soooo delicious and sinful. It's Monica, my sister's recipe, but I've typed it all out (but again it can all be changed, use more or less of anything). Monica said that once she added Oreos to it and that is was great!

1 box chocolate cake mix (18.25 oz.)
3 sml boxes instant chocolate pudding
1 pkg. Cool Whip (16 oz.)
9 Heath candy bars

Bake cake according to directions in a 13 x 9-inch pan. Let cool. Mix pudding according to directions; set aside. In bowl, layer the ingredients:

Layer 1: Crumbled pieces of cake.
Layer 2: Top with pieces of Heath candy bar.
Layer 3: Pour 1/2 of pudding over candies.
Layer 4: Top with 1/2 of Cool Whip

Repeat other layers of the ingredients until everything is gone. Optional: Top with shavings of 1 candy bar.

APPLE CRISP

Here's my mom's apple crisp recipe - I love it with vanilla ice cream!

8 cups sliced apples
1.5 cups crown sugar
1 cup flour
1 cup quick oats
1.5 tsp cinnamon
1.5 nutmeg
2/3 cup margarine (soft)

Bake at 375 degrees. Apples on bottom. Mixed remaining ingredients on top. (Mix crisp before slicing apples so they don’t go brown). Bake about 30 minutes, until crust is golden brown and apples are tender.

RASPBERRY PRETZEL DESSERT

I love this recipe! Well, I guess I have always loved raspberries and pretzels - so it's perfect for me.

2 c pretzel sticks pre-crushed
3 tbsp sugar
¾ c butter (melted)
1 pkg cream cheese (8 oz.)
2 pkg frozen raspberries
1 pkg cool whip (12 oz. or more)
1 lg box raspberry jell-o
2 c boiling water

Mix sugar and butter than pour over crushed pretzels and mix all together. Pat into 9 x 13” pan and bake at 400° for 7 minutes. Let cool. Mix cream cheese with cool whip and spread on pretzel layer. It works better when the cool whip and cream cheese have been thawed a bit. Mix jell-o and water. Stir in frozen raspberries. Pour over second layer. Refrigerate overnight.

PUMPKIN SPICE COOKIES

This recipe is so easy to make and great for the Holidays. I got it from a friend in our ward, P. Jarvis.

Vegetable Spray (Pam)
Spice Cake mix (18.25 ounce)
1 can solid packed pumpkin (15 ounce)


Preheat oven to 350°F and spray cookie sheet(s) lightly with the vegetable spray. In a large bowl, mix the box of spice cake mix and the can of pumpkin together until well blended. Drop rounded spoonfuls onto the greased cookie sheet. The cookies don't flatten so however you place them on the cookie sheet is how they look after baking. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of your cookies. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. They are delicious!
