Italiancook I'm going to post recipe from Southern Bites.Not word for word cause I don't want to infringe on any ones recipe.
Blueberry Yum Yum
1-10 oz. pkg. of short bread cookies
1/4-cup melted butter
1-8 oz. cream cheese(softened)
1-cup powder sugar
2-8 oz. cool whip thawed
1-21 oz.can Blueberry pie filling
1-cup chopped pecans
Preheat oven 350*.Crush cookies reserving 1/2 cup crumbs for topping.Mix cookie crumbs with butter,press into 9x13 baking dish,bake 5 min and cool completely.(I had to cook mine a tad longer)recipe called for Lorna Doone cookies but I used Keebler short bread as they were much cheaper.

In large bowl mix cream cheese with powder sugar with mixer,when combined add 1 8 oz.cool whip by hand.Once completely mixed,spread mixture over cooled crust.
Drop dollops of Blueberry pie filling over cream cheese layer and spread carefully. Sprinkle nuts on if desired I didn't add pecans.Top with remaining container of cool whip and sprinkle reserved crumbs on top I forgot and didn't save crumbs for top but wasn't missed,just looks pretty.Refrigerate for a couple hours before cutting ,this holds up well and is pretty and not too sweet.Everyone that eats this loves it.You can go to the site Southern Bites and see a picture.

no jello in this one.I also make a lemon lush recipe with lemon pie filling but it has flour crust and is very good.

Blueberry Yum Yum

Print
Prep time
25 mins
Cook time
5 mins
Total time
30 mins

Serves: 10 to 12 servings
Ingredients
1 (10-ounce) package Lorna Doone Cookies
¼ cup butter, melted
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
2 (8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (21-ounce) can blueberry pie filling
1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°. Crush the Lorna Doone cookies and reserve about ½ cup of the crumbs for the topping. Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter. Press them into the bottom of a 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Bake for 5 minutes and then cool completely.
In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 1 container of the thawed whipped topping by stirring by hand. Once thoroughly mixed, spread the mixture over the cooled crust.
Drop dollops of the blueberry pie filling over the cream cheese layer and spread carefully. Sprinkle pecans over the pie filling. Top with the remaining container of whipped topping and sprinkle with the reserved crushed cookies. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.

This is the recipe Italiancook,no jello but does have cool whip.I do not put the pecans in this and I also use any shortbread cookie,sometimes I can't find Lorna Doone and they are more costly than the Keebler short bread cookies.I know it's easy and not really cooking but it's very good and not too sweet.This recipe comes from Southern Bites and if you look it up it shows a good photo,looks nice and holds up well.

Happy Anniversary Bakeraunt and I made a Blueberry Yum Yum dessert with a crust from shortbread cookies was cool and light.I also use heavy whipping cream in most recipes if the regular isn't stocked,never a problem.

[Joan Simpson]

Thanks Mike I will surely try that soaking overnight and I'll try your recipe.

[Joan Simpson]

Cleaning out the fridge=Lima bean soup,using left over tomato gravy,rice and lima beans,cut up some onion,celery and carrot and adding in chicken stock from baked chicken.Good and easy!

[Joan Simpson]

Thanks Mike,do you think your recipe for wheat bread would work with the grains?And would you soak them first?Sure hope ya'll enjoyed your son and family!

I made the Amish bread but added the 7 grain cereal like one half cup and used one and half cups of white and one and half cups wheat flour,used buttermilk in place of water.I had to add extra buttermilk it was way too dry.I didn't soak the cereal before and when baked I could see little white pieces of the oatmeal,it was heavy but had a good taste for toast so I'll keep trying.

Yesterday I made Taco burgers and home fries and today I made Baked pork tenderloin,rice & gravy with green butter beans.

[Joan Simpson]

I made fried ham,rutabagas and rice and tomato gravy.

[Joan Simpson]

Taco salad yesterday,dry lima beans with rice and fried cubed pork today.

[Joan Simpson]

Baked some chocolate chip cookie bars today was good and stayed soft,called for 2 cups of chocolate chips and I used one and half cups and that was a little too much for me,baked in 9x13 pan.I found some seven grain cereal to use for some bread will be doing that soon.Not a lot of baking here cause it's so dang hot.

[Joan Simpson]

I made another batch of cinnamon rolls and replaced the milk with buttermilk and you're right BakerAunt they are moist and more tender,also added left over mashed potatoes that was prepared with butter and sour cream.I made 2 9x13 pans so I had plenty to share with our aunt and sister who live near us.

[Joan Simpson]

BakerAunt glad you're home and baking again.Let us know how the buttermilk is in the Vienna bread.I've made it a time or two and like it also.I'm thinking of replacing buttermilk for the whole milk to the next batch of cinnamon rolls.
