Chocolate Freezer Pies -13

My son just loves his grandma’s family recipe for Chocolate Freezer Pies. He doesn’t like cake very much, so he usually prefers pies for his birthday.

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz. Hershey’s bar
  • 8 oz. Cream Cheese
  • 16 oz. Cool Whip
  • 2 Prepared 8 inch Graham Crust
  • 1/4 cup milk

Directions:

  1. Heat the chocolate and 2 tablespoons of the milk in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until melted.
  2. Beat the cream cheese and add the remaining milk. Add chocolate mix and beat until smooth.
  3. In a bowl, fold the chocolate mix into the cool whip and blend until smooth.
  4. Spoon the mix into the crusts. I decorated the pies with some extra cool whip and shaved chocolate bar for my son’s birthday.
  5. Freeze for 4 hours.

He still loves all things Nerf, so he had a few friends over the play Nerf again this year!

Latchkey Art Show

We saved the kids art work at our after school program and put on an art show for the community. We has art stations set out along with displaying the kids art work. We had cookies and juice for refreshments too.

Art Work Display

We folded the tables up and hung up the children’s artwork that we has been saving.

We also displayed 3-D artwork onto boxed that I covered with colored paper.

Living Photo Frame

I painted a living photo frame out of 2 large cardboard boxes that I found. I put chairs in it so that kids can sit there while they get their pictures taken.
