Love your video's Mandy! You and your family are just so darn cute, and I laugh every time Cole 'slides' into the video at the table with his little smile, and gives a thumbs up...or 2 or 3 thumbs up! He's a cutie for sure and reminds me of my kids when they were that age. You may have already done this, but if you make a big batch of cookie dough you can just bake however many you want, then scoop out all the unbaked dough onto a sheet......freeze that pan, then the next day just place the unbaked frozen cookie balls into a freezer bag. You can have fresh baked cookies anytime without any work! I've done that for many, many years, and often make a double batch just to have the unbaked cookies in the freezer, and ready to go for another time. :) Delicious recipes. I'll definitely be making the hash brown casserole! Thanks for your great video's! :) ~~Mavis~~

We make that hash brown casserole all the time as a side dish! Gonna have to try it with the chicken to make it a main coarse. I also would suggest using ritz crackers instead of cornflakes If you enjoy the flavor of ritz! I personally like that topping better but either way it’s soooo delicious!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9x13 or 11x7 pan. In bowl mix cake mix, butter, and eggs. Stir in add ins. Spread in pan. Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes. I like making them in the 11x7 pan. They are a little thicker but are fewer cookies as there are only 2 of us.

Because I work nights my husband tends to have to cook dinner after working all day. I started to feel guilty about this and thought crockpot cooking would be the best way to go this way dinner is done and all he would need to do is serve it. Thank you for your videos, they truly help me.
