Even though my wife is a baker, this is my favorite cookie recipe that i whip up! (it's so easy, even i can do it!)

1 chocolate cake mix (my fav is Devil's Food)
2 eggs
1/3 c. oil

Mix everything together with a mixer. Will be thick and leave sides of the bowl clean. Roll teaspoonfuls into balls, then roll in sugar. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet at 350 for 10 minutes or until cracked open on top.

You can make these with ANY cake mix... so the flavors are endless. Some other favorites: Spice, Strawberry, Lemon, Butter Pecan. Also, instead of rolling the batter in sugar before baking, you can just bake them and then top with cream cheese icing once they are cooled off! :)

Hey, that is easy. Kealey would love to bake those with her Papaw.
Thanks Jeff :)

"Bawled" Peanuts


2 pounds dried raw peanuts in shell
1/2 to 2/3 cup salt

Preparation

1. Soak peanuts in water to cover in a large stock pot at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours. (You may need to weigh down peanuts with a large plate or lid to ensure that they are fully submerged.) Drain and rinse.

2. Place peanuts and desired amount of salt in stock pot with 4 1/2 qt. water; bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 6 hours or until peanuts are tender, adding water as needed to keep peanuts covered; stir occasionally.

3. Remove from heat; let stand 1 hour.


Options:

Cajun Boiled Peanuts: Proceed with Step 1, adding 1/2 cup Cajun seasoning to water. Proceed with Step 2, using 1/2 cup salt and 5 to 7 Tbsp. liquid Cajun crab boil before bringing to a boil. Proceed with recipe as directed.

Ham-Flavored Boiled Peanuts:
Proceed with Step 1. Omit Step 2, and bring 6 qt. water and 2 smoked ham hocks to a boil in a large stock pot. Reduce heat, and simmer 3 hours. Remove and discard ham hocks. Cool broth; chill 8 hours. Skim fat from broth. Add peanuts and 1/2 cup salt to broth. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat, and cook 6 hours or until tender, adding water as needed to keep peanuts covered; stir occasionally. Remove from heat; let stand 1 hour.
