Salted Caramel Sprinkles

 I had surgery the first part of November.  Several friends and family brought me meals.  I wanted something to send back in their dishes.   I purchased some 4 oz. glass shaker bottles on Amazon and this is what I filled them with.  These will be fun little Christmas gifts too!


Salted Caramel Sprinkles  (enough to fill 6 or 7 jars)
3/4 c. powdered sugar
1 1/8 c. turbinado sugar
1 c. brown sugar
2 T. salt

Stir together and blend in blender.  Pour into shaker jars.  Sprinkle on anything and everything!!!  So fun to use and share!!!

Sprinkle on:
Popcorn
Ice cream
hot chocolate
whipped cream for a shimmery touch
oatmeal or cream of wheat
fruit
yogurt
toast or tortillas or pie crust
muffins or sweet breads or cinnamon rolls
Amish friendship breads
pound cake, bundt cakes, cupcakes and cookies
Butterscotch Delight
gourmet desserts 
fruit crisps
sweet potatoes
Make a dip = 4 oz. cream cheese + 1 to 2 T. sprinkles  Served with graham crackers, cookies, apples or grapes


If you only want to fill one 4 oz. jar:
2 T. powdered sugar
3 T. turbinado sugar
2 1/2 T. brown sugar
1 t. salt

Butterfinger Delight

A spin off of our favorite Butterscotch Delight.

Butterfinger Delight
32 Oreo cookies,crushed
5 T. melted butter
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 c. powdered sugar
3/4 c. peanut butter
1 bag mini butterfingers, crushed (about 12 minis), divided

Large 5.9 oz. Instant chocolate pudding 
2 c. milk

Stir together crushed cookies and melted butter.  Press firmly into a 9x13 baking dish and refrigerate.

Beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar and peanut butter.  Fold in half of Cool Whip and half of the crushed Butterfingers.  Spread over the Oreo crust.

Beat together the pudding and milk.  Beating 2 to 3 minutes, until thickened.  Pour over the peanut butter layer.  

Top with the remaining Cool Whip and sprinkle with the remaining crushed Butterfingers.  Refrigerate until serving time.  

Notes:  Butterfingers are easily crushed while in the wrapper by tapping with a rolling pin.  

Could use small box (3.9 oz.) of chocolate and small box of vanilla instant pudding mixed with 3 c. milk.
