Tonight was one of those nights that by 5:30pm, I was too tired to walk, fold the clean laundry or make dinner. Luckily, my freezer was stocked with a bag of cooked shredded pork and a log of coconut chip cookie dough.

After a fun but exhausting day of being a mother 4 small children, (which involved everything today from potty training, 5-6 warm bottles for the baby, diaper changing, playing dolls for 3 hours, nap time, story time, driving to and from the bus stop several times, a preschool picnic lunch, laundry, dishes, breakfast, lunch and snacks, finding and cleaning out a dead mouse behind the dryer (Eek!), rescuing a Cinderella kite from the springs of our trampoline etc…) My wonderful husband saw how tired I was tonight and decided to make dinner. Lucky for him, we had cooked rice in the freezer.

Who says chocolate cake can’t be a healthy snack? This chocolate snack cake freezes well and bakes up moist and delicious. I usually serve it without frosting to keep it healthy. It is delcious on its own, or we love to top it with whip cream and a few fresh berries (both berries and whipped cream freeze well.) This makes a great after school snack, or light dessert.

Now that you’ve learned how to make a quick and easy pie crust, what is your preference? Pumpkin or Peach?
Also, when fruit harvest time comes around again, this is a great way to stock your freezer for the winter. My mouth is watering now. There is nothing better then a slice of warm pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. Well, maybe there is, this Pumpkin Pecan Crunch is just amazing and is as easy to make as serving cold cereal for breakfast. Enjoy!
