How was Easter for everyone out there? Mine was fantastic. I was in charge of cooking an appetizer and baking a dessert so I thought I would share with you what I made since both were a BIG HIT!

Pepperoni Pizza Dip

This was pretty easy to make! It didn't require too many ingredients (which I love) and the baking time was about 10 minutes!

Ingredients

Cream cheese (8 oz)

Red Pepper Flakes

Parsley

Oregano

Mozzarella Cheese

Parmesan Cheese

Chopped Green Pepper

Chopped Onion

Pizza Sauce

Pepperonis (I used Turkey)

The Process

Mix the first 4 ingredients together and spread in the bottom of a baking dish.

Top with a layer of pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese & parmesan cheese

Add another layer of pizza sauce

Add another layer of cheese

Place pepperonis, peppers & onions on top an bake in the over for 10-15 minutes on 350

Serve with baguette slices

Oreo Cake

Ingredients

Chocolate cake mix

Cream cheese (8 oz)

Cool Whip

1/2 cup Sugar

Oreos

The Process

Bake the chocolate cake in two 9 inch cake pans (let them cool)

Mix cream cheese, sugar & Cool Whip in bowl

Place about 8 oreos into a plastic bag and smash them up (I used a rolling pin to do this - and it was fun:))

Mix the oreos into the frosting mixture

Cut the dome part off of one cake and place on plate

Spread the frosting mixture over the top

Add the second cake on top and spread frosting all over the exterior of the cake

Crush about 5 more oreos and sprinkle on top!

YUM - my mouth is watering just looking at these pictures....bon appetit!
