Heading off to the reunion

It's reunion time again--the big one. What I mean by big one--the big Baker reunion. It's at the cabin this year. Mom & Dad Baker have worked themselves to the bones trying to get the basement finished so we'll have room for the 75 ish people coming. It's gonna be great fun with cousins from Colorado, Nevada, and Canada. Here's what I'm bringing for snacks;

Seasoned Pretzels

4 lb bag pretzels
8 oz Orville Reddenbacher’s buttery popcorn oil
1 pkg. Ranch drsg mix (dry)
1 tsp dill weed
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper

Mix oil and seasonings together and pour over pretzels. Let set overnight for oil to absorb. We put in large plastic garbage sack to mix. Great snack for camping or boating.

These are a must with any gathering!!

And of course these:

Salted Nut Roll Bars

Yellow cake mix
1 egg
2/3 cup melted butter
4-5 cups mini marshmallows
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1 pkg Reeses Peanut Butter chips
¼ cup butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 can (or a little more) salted roasted peanuts

Mix together cake mix, egg and 2/3cup melted butter.
Spread onto jelly-roll pan. Bake at 375 for 10-12 min.
Or until lightly browned. Spread mini mallows on top
Of crust, and bake another 5-6 minutes until puffy.
Cool completely. Melt together corn syrup, peanut butter
Chips, vanilla and ¼ cup butter. Spread evenly on top
Of marshmallows. (do this quickly because it will set up)
Sprinkle nuts on top. Let set a few hours before cutting.

YUM!! Gets my mouth a-watering just thinking about them

More later on the Baker Bunch.

Yea! Two fabulous recipes that I know I need. Loving the new layout on your blog. You probably did it ages ago, but something called girl's camp has kept me from doing anything fun on the computer! Hope you guys have a great time this weekend!
