Pumpkin Gooey Butter Cakes
Another Paula Deen favorite! This is so Yummy. It could easily take the place of pumpkin pie!
Cake:
1 pkg yellow cake mix
1 egg
8 Tbls butter, melted
Filling:
1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese, softened
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
8 Tbls butter, melted
1 (16 oz) box powdered sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the cake mix, egg and butter and mix well with an electric mixer. Pat the mixture into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13 pan.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and pumpkin until smooth. Add the eggs, vanilla, and butter, and beat together. Next, add the powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and mix well. Spread pumpkin mixture over cake batter and bake for 40-50 minutes. Make sure not to over bake as the center should be a little gooey.
Serve with fresh whipped cream.
Variations:
Pineapple: Instead of pumpkin, add a drained 20 oz can of crushed pineapple to the cream cheese filling. Proceed as directed above.
Banana: Prepare cream cheese filling as directed, beating 2 ripe bananas instead of the pumpkin. Proceed as directed above.
Peanut Butter: Use a chocolate cake mix. Add 1 cup creamy peanut butter to the cream cheese filling instead of pumpkin. Proceed as directed above.

Sweet Potato Biscuits
I got this recipe from a Paula Deen cooking class I took at ISU.
3/4 c. mashed cooked sweet potatoes
1/4 c. milk
1/4 c. butter
1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour
4 TBS baking powder
2 heaping tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl, mix the potatoes, milk, and butter. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the potato mixture and combine to make a soft dough. Turn the dough out onto a floured board and toss lightly until the outside of the dough looks smooth. Roll the dough out to one-half inch thick and cut with a round cutter. Place the biscuits on a greased pan and bake for about 15 minutes. (Watch your oven: If the biscuits are browning too fast, lower the temperature.)

From Melissa, Shay's mom is Carolyn VanOrden.
Put a whole chicken in a roaster bag in your roasting pan. Season well with poultry seasoning. (or salt and pepper to taste) Cut up potatoes very thin…and carrots. Top with 2 cans of cream of chicken soup. Close bag and cut a slit in the top. Bake at 350 * for about 25 minutes per pound of chicken. It makes it’s own gravy and has such good flavor! YUMMY!

Carmel Apple Crepes
I wasn't too sure about this one, but it turned out so YUMMY! It was a big hit at the recipe exchange.
CREPES:
3/4 c. flour
1/3 c. milk
1/3 c. water
2 eggs
2 TBS sugar
4 tsp cooking oil
Place all ingredients in blender and mix until smooth. You may need to scrape the sides. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Remove from heat and pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly. Place back on burner and cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, or until the bottom is light brown. Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side.
SAUCE:
1 c. packed brown sugar
4 tsp cornstarch
1 c. whipping cream
2 TBS apple juice
1 TBS butter
2 c. thinly sliced apples
In large sauce pan mix all ingredients. (You may want to mix cornstarch into whipping cream so it does not clump.) Cook over medium heat until thick and bubbly and cook two minutes more.
Serve crepes with sauce rolled up inside or flat with sauce spooned on top.
Optional: top with whip cream or sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Chocolate Surprise Cookies
These are so yummy and so simple.
German chocolate cake mix
1/2 c oil
2 eggs
2 Tbs flour
Rolos or Reese's peanut butter cups (these are my favorite)
sugar
Mix cake mix, oil, eggs and flour. Mush around one piece of candy (enough so that the candy wont leak out, the carmel will stick). Then roll in sugar. Bake for 10 min at 350.
If using Rolos you should be able to get about 2 1/2- 3 dozen cookies.
