Tried and Liked:Cresent Rolls and French Dip Sandwiches

I made something really delicious tonight, and it was pretty easy! The rolls my mom started making this thanksgiving, and they have been a family favorite ever since (as in everyone tries to get mom to make them as often as possible!) The rolls are great, and then turning them into french dip sandwiches made them even better. Next time I have to remember the cheese. My au jus didn't turn out too great this time, but I know how to make it better next time, and I can't wait!

Breakfast Cake

Most people call this a coffee cake with a struesel topping, but that name confused my children since we don’t drink coffee. So I started calling it Breakfast Cake.

Ingredients:

3 Cups flour

1 ½ Cups sugar

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

2 beaten eggs

1 ¾ Cups milk

½ Cup cooking oil

Topping:

2 Cups chopped nuts

½ Cup packed brown sugar

2 Tablespoons flour

3 Tablespoons butter or margarine, softened

2 teaspoons cinnamon

Directions:

Stir together 3 Cups of flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.

Combine eggs, milk and oil in separate bowl, then add to flour mixture and mix well.

Pour into a greased 9” x 13” pan.

Combine nuts, brown sugar, 2 Tablespoons of flour, butter and cinnamon. Sprinkle over cake batter.

Bake at 375 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes clean when poked in the center.
