Not Yo' Mama's Pudding

This recipe came from a lady at my church (Vanessa Schaumann) who got it from Paula Deen.  I adjusted the ingredients a little bit and have included the recipe exactly as I made it.  I served it as a nice dessert at a Relief Society activity a few months ago.  It tasted great and was very pretty with all the fruit on top.

1 bag Pepperidge Farm Chessman cookies
2 cups milk
1 (5oz) box instant vanilla pudding
1 (8oz) package cream cheese, softened
1 (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12oz) container frozen whipped topping, thawed

• Crush the cookies and sprinkle them on the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.  (If you don't want to crush the cookies you can just layer the bottom of the dish with whole cookies)
• In a bowl, combine the milk and pudding mix.  Blend well using a handheld electric mixer.
• Using another bowl, combinet he cream cheese and condensed milk together and mix until smooth.
• Fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture.  Add the cream cheese mixture to the pudding and stir until well blended.
• Pour the mixture over the cookies.  Refrigerate several hours so the cookies soften a bit.
• When you are ready to serve top the pudding with your choice of berries (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, etc. - it looks a tastes great if you use a variety).

Pepperoni Rolls

We really like the pepperoni rolls a local restaurant has to offer.  When I saw a smiliar idea floating around on pinterest lately I knew we had to try it.  We made these a few months ago and loved the results.  I didn't really use any one recipe, just looked at the pictures and recipes and made up our own version using our favorite go-to dough.

1 batch of best ever pizza crust (http://tishastips.blogspot.com/search?q=best+pizza)
marinara sauce
shredded cheese (we used mozarella and cheddar this time, but you can use what you have on hand)
mini-pepperoni

1. Make one batch of pizza crust.
2. Roll the dough out thinly on a floured surface.
3. Spread marinara sauce over the top.  Leave a few inches uncovered at once edge of the dough.
4. Sprinkle with cheese.
5. Sprinkle with mini-pepperoni.
6. Roll tightly like you would a cinnamon roll.
7. Cut into slices like you would a cinnamon roll.
8. Place on cookie sheet.
9. Cook at 350 degrees for 15+ minutes (I just checked on them periodically until I though they looked done.  Your's could take you less time or more time depending on the size of your rolls, how much stuff is in the middle and how your oven cooks).
10. Enjoy!
