Some meals can be made overnight. Others make for great freezer meals. Most take 8 hours in the slow cooker. I have never tried making a pumpkin pie in the slow cooker or a gooey Peanut Butter Cup Pudding Cake either. You can pour all the ingredients together for Rice Pudding. There is no need to cook the rice separately. The Peach Cobbler recipe sounds yummy for a summer treat, along with Berry Cobbler. Looking forward to trying the Caramel Apple Crisp for Halloween and the Pumpkin Bread for a warm winters night. Pineapple Bananas Foster is light and refreshing with coconut milk and rum. I'm anxious to try the No-Fuss Cheesecake. The Low-Carb Carrot Cake looks great, too. You will find a calorie, carb and fat count below the recipe. The author has shared some lovely recipes with us for cooking desserts in a slow cooker while we are free to do other things at hand. What a great tool for some great desserts to be enjoyed with family and friends!

4/5 stars.

Skywatch Friday

I love looking at the sun rays at daybreak. The promise of another beautiful summer day! This brightly colored Hibiscus greets us on our daily walk in nature. Aaround our home, the sagopalmm and queen palms are in blossom!

I'm going to try the Pumpkin Bread recipe this weekend for my family. Have you used your slow cooker for desserts? What is your favorite crock pot dish?

Happy reading, cooking, gardening and skywatching!
