snacks have a habit of disappearing on me too
( Literally ON me!) I didn't know they made MINI's?

CHEESECAKE CUPCAKES
MIX 2 PKGS. (8 OZ. EACH) OF SOFTENED CRÈME CHEESE
½ CUP SUGAR, ½ TSP. VANILLA
ADD 2 EGGS.
PLACE A VANILLA WAFER IN 12 CUPCAKE PAPERS.
POUR MIXTURE INTO MUFFIN CUPS ( ONTOP OF WAFER)
BAKE AT 350 FOR 20 MIN.
CENTER IS ALMOST SET,
COOL IN FRIDGE 2 HOURS ( OR OVERNITE)
optional- put canned fruit topping on top)
Or
*** TO MAKE INTO EASTER BASKETS:
SPRINKLE COCONUT** AND JELLY BEANS JUST BEFORE SERVING. SHAPE A TWIZZLER INTO A HANDLE AND INSERT. ( ** COCONUT CAN BE MADE GREEN BY TOSSING IT IN A BAG WITH GREEN FOOD COLORING.)

It is an easy thing to do! Enjoy while you can. Pretty soon your daughter will be fighting you for them. :)

This was too funny! Thanks for sharing.

2008-04-07T15:13:00.000-08:00

My in laws are always teasing me for baking small cookies and cutting my brownies into little squares. I know I eat just as much, but if feels like more.

2008-04-07T14:47:00.000-08:00

I love Nilla wafers...especially in vanilla pudding that has been left in the fridge overnight. The nilla wafers turn into a cakey consistency...mmmmmmmmmmmm

I hear ya sistah! I love minis, too, but they don't always help me stay "mini"!

2008-04-07T13:24:00.000-08:00

I did with a box of wheat thins one time... LOL!!! That's funny!

Were you like me, and your first thought upon realizing the box was empty was NOT "oh no! I ate the whole box!" but more along the lines of "Darn it! I wish there was just one more bite!" (or somewhere in the middle???) LOL

Thanks for sharing that story!

2008-04-07T13:21:00.000-08:00

I am with you on the "mini" sizes. They just ARE better. And the guilt...lessened.

I just need to strap on a feed bag when I find a snack food that I adore....that way I can continually eat and multi-task ;)

2008-04-07T11:55:00.000-08:00

Love it!

How true it is, although I have to say that I have that problem with kit kats. I buy the small ones, and then if I think about how many small ones I had during the day, it was probably more than 2 whole ones!

It's a no win situation I tell ya!

2008-04-07T11:48:00.000-08:00

That is exactly how I am with Pringles. Waht is their line, "Once you pop, you can't stop." Totally true!

2008-04-07T10:52:00.000-08:00

ahhh... and the mini ones just TASTE better then the full size ones. dont know how, they JUST DO!!

2008-04-07T09:38:00.000-08:00

I'm with ya on this one... I get those '100 calories' snack packs and then eat two or three of them. If you break it up like that it's not so bad... right?

If they were half the size, then you only ate half...

2008-04-07T09:29:00.000-08:00

If they were half the size, then you only ate half the box. That's my theory, and I'm sticking to it!

2008-04-07T09:26:00.000-08:00

Too funny! I have to limit snacks in our house too. I try to put snacks in a bowl or baggie so I know how much I am eating and try to limit myself.

I hate whenthat happens! LOL :)

2008-04-07T09:15:00.000-08:00
