**** HUMAN RECIPE **** Mac & Cheese 2 cups dry penne pasta 2 tablespoons of melted butter 4 ounces of cream cheese 1/3cup of cottage cheese (you'll never know it's in there but it makes a difference) ¼ cup sour cream ½ cup shredded cheddar ¼ cup of pasteurized American cheese 12 strips of bacon, cooked crispy Fresh cracked pepper to taste 3 tablespoons of lightly salted butter 1 sleeve of Ritz crackers (plain or garden vegetable is really yummy) or you could also use traditional bread crumbs. Bring a quart of water to boiling, add a drizzle of olive oil to your water (prevents pasta from sticking) reduce to medium high heat and add your pasta. Cook until tender but not mushy. Drain water from pasta. Return to pan and add all ingredients except for melted butter and crushed crackers or bread crumbs. Stir over medium low heat until cheeses are melted and pasta is evenly coated. Pour your mac-n-cheese into a greased pie plate and top with cracker or bread crumbs that have been mixed with your melted butter. Place on lower rack in your oven, with the broiler on, until cheese starts to bubble and top is starting to brown. You can also place this in a 350 degree oven and bake for about 20 minutes if you prefer (the top won't be as "crusty" this way though). Enjoy!

Crisp Sugar Cookies - For humans but momma always shares with me Ingridients needed for cookies 1 Cup unsalted butter (softened) 3/4 cup cooking oil - I use veggy oil 1 Cup Granulated sugar 1 Cup Powdered Sugar 1 Teaspoon Salt 2 eggs 1 Teaspoon Vanilla 1 teaspoon Baking Soda 4 Cups Flour You will also need: 1/4 Cup Granulated sugar 1/8 Teaspoon Cinnamon In a large bowl using a mixer: Cream butter, oil, sugars(1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup powdered sugar) and salt till fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, mix well. Add dry ingriedients (baking soda and flour)and mix well. Divide the mix up and place onto waxed paper and using the waxed paper shape into cookie logs - NOTE: keep in mind how big you want your cookies diameters to be when rolling out the logs - wrap in waxed paper and place them in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour or until the dough sets and hardens, I usually leave it overnight and cut and bake the day after mixing. Remove one log at a time and using a sharp knife slice each 1/4" think and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Mix together in a small bowl: 1/4 Cup Granulated Sugar 1/8 Teaspoon Cinnamon Lightly grease the bottom of the flat glass and dip it into the sugar/cinnamon mixture, then lightly smash a cookie top with the glass/mixture. Repeat for each cookie - you won't have to grease the bottom of the glass each time; only do so when the mixture stops sticking to the glass. You can also use holiday sprinkles but be sure to lightly smash them into the unbaked cookies tops as described above or else they tend to fall off after baking. Bake 15 minutes at 300 degrees. Let cool before removing from the cookie sheet. NOTE: The thinner you slice the log the crispier the cookies will be. These cookies are the BEST sugar cookies around! Everyone will love them. Enjoy!
