Kids' Caramel Apples

• 5 Granny Smith Apples (Any other apple won't do.)
• 1 bag of Caramel bits (from the baking isle)
• 1 bag of white chocolate chips
• Cinnamon toast crunch cereal

Directions
•Place cereal in a ziplock bag and have your child crush them
while you melt the morsels and caramel bits. (Follow melting instructions on back of bags.)
•Place sticks in the apples. (The sticks come with the Caramel bits.)
•Dip the apples in the caramel and then in the white chocolate.
•Let your child roll the apple in the crushed cereal until the apple is fully coated.
•Place apples on a non-stick surface and place in fridge.
Helpful tip: let apples sit out of fridge for about 10 minutes and cut into easy-to- eat slices.

Help! My kids ate the last two popsicles out of the freezer yesterday. I need some recipes to keep the kids cool. Any ideas?

I started a "Scorching -- but Sweet! -- Summer" discussion in this group (above).

The weather prediction looks sticky hot for the rest of the week -- climbing back into triple digits by the end of the weekend.

There's got to be something we can eat or drink to get us through a scorching summer!

RECIPE AND PHOTO BY CINDY BURNHAM

EASY COCONUT CAKE
Cake:
1 box yellow cake mix
( follow directions on the box)

Filling/Frosting:
2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons milk (or half and half)
16 ounces sour cream
2 containers of frozen coconut (if you can’t find, use 7-ounce cans of Baker’s Angel Flake Coconut, to taste)

While cake is baking, prepare the filling. Stir together sugar, sour cream, milk and coconut in a bowl until well blended. Store in a seal-tight bowl in the refrigerator while cake is baking.

Remove cake from oven and cool. Slice the layers.

Now get the coconut filling and spread a fourth of the filling mixture on cake layers.

Repeat the process on all four layers.

You should have enough left over to frost the top and sides of the cake.

Hint: You can place the cake in the refrigerator for up to three days to allow it to absorb the filling mixture. The longer the cake sits in the refrigerator, the better it tastes. The texture also becomes firmer.

I just love www.kraftfoods.com They have lots of quick and easy recipes. You can also register with them to receive I believe a quarterly(?) magazine that has some pretty good info in it.

Pizza Mummies:
I did this on Friday the 13th but you can do it for any occasion! You can even put mummy loves you next to it!

RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
English muffins
Pizza sauce
Black olives
Scallions
Red or green pepper
Cheese sticks or slices
1. Heat the oven to 350° F. For each mummy, spread a tablespoon of pizza sauce onto half of an English muffin (toast it first, if you like).

2. Set olive slices in place for eyes and add round slices of green onion or bits of red or green pepper for pupils.

3. Lay strips of cheese (we used a pulled-apart cheese stick) across the muffin for the mummy?s wrappings.

4. Bake for about 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the muffin is toasty.
