Cooking: Crock Pot Salsa Chicken

This easy slow cooker recipe is my fiance's favorite.

Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 cup salsa
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- flour tortillas











Place chicken in crock pot (if it's still frozen that's fine) Sprinkle with taco seasoning.
In a bowl combine cream of chicken soup and salsa. Pour over chicken.
Cook on high for 4 hours.
Shred chicken with 2 forks, stir in sour cream, serve on tortillas.

Baking: Cake batter cookies


Cake Batter Cookies:
For my first batch I used yellow cake mix


Ingredients:

- 1 box of cake mix
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- sprinkles (opt.)









Preheat oven to 350
In a large bowl, mix together cake mix and baking powder.
In a small bowl, mix together eggs, vanilla, and oil.
Add egg mixture to cake mixture. Stir until combined.
Drop spoonful sized batter onto a greased baking sheet.


Bake 10 minutes, let cool for 5 minutes.

I also tried making these using the Pillsbury funfetti cake mix, but they weren't as tasty and good as the yellow cake mix. I've also gotten a strawberry cake mix to try.
Cake batter cookies are softer their your normal cookie batter, they last longer and you don't need to place a slice of bread in with the cookies to keep them soft.
