PEANUT BLOSSOM COOKIES:
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 butter (melted)
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 egg
2 Tablespoons milk
2 1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
approximately 25 Hershey Kisses
Mix the first 6 ingredients together. Add the dry ingredients and mix well. Shape into balls and roll in white sugar. Do not flatten. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and place a Hershey kiss on the top of each cookie. Press down until edges of cookie crack. Enjoy. 😊
PARTY MIX:
Preheat oven at 250 degrees
Fill a large 13 quart mixing bowl or container with cereal/snacks of your choice. Our favorites are: Honey Comb, Corn Chex, Wheat Chex, Cheerios, and pretzels.
SAUCE:
1 lb. butter
3 Tablespoons Lawry's Salt
3 Tablespoons Worchestershire Sauce
Melt the butter and add the salt and sauce. Stir until dissolved. Spread over cereal and mix until all the cereal is coated with sauce.
Put in roasters or pans and roast in the oven for an hour and a half, stirring every 15 minutes.
CHILI SOUP:
1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1 onion (optional)
1/2 cup flour
Approximately 85 oz. of tomato juice, sauce, diced tomatoes, etc. This can vary, depending on how thick you like your soup to be.
2 Tablespoons chili powder (more or less depending on how spicy you want the soup to be)
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup brown sugar
Brown the hamburger and onions. Put in a large kettle or soup pot. Add flour and stir thoroughly.
Add the tomato products, sugar, and all seasonings. bring to a boil. I always like to simmer it for 15 minutes at least to blend the flavors.
Serve with freshly shredded cheese and/or crackers.
HOT COCOA:
6 cups milk
1/4 cup cocoa
1/4 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup water
Cream
Bring this mixture to a simmer. Don't leave it unattended, because it will boil over!

I forget which comments I’ve actually left and which ones I’ve just thought, so in case I’ve never told you, I really enjoy your videos. You remind me of my cousin who I had all sorts of adventures with growing up. We were both farm girls and loved exploring the outdoors and making things. I really miss those times and think that she would really love this channel.
Mary, not only are your videos informative and inspiring but they are not lengthy! I love a shorter video that doesn't throw in gratuitous footage...you edit wonderfully! Thank you!
I love the polka dots! Very cute dress.
I love Wednesday morning!!! So good to see you. I enjoy you so much Mary😘🎄
Our family loves Chex Party Mix. Over the years we have customized our favorite mix. We do the original recipe for the sauce but use lots of salted mixed nuts or just cashews, gold fish crackers, mini pretzels, bagel chips and of course the 3 Chex cereals. I usually make a double or sometimes a triple batch during the season. My kids would disown me if they came home and there wasn’t any Chex mix!!! 😂
Something to consider in the late winter/early spring, is a weekly routine for young ladies who are choosing to stay home as their full time job (Proverbs 31:27).I think there is a need for resources for young ladies. Perhaps your mother and sister would help put together a series of the best routines you carry on from your Amish roots that are useful to everyone. I think you are such a wonderful teacher and example of a Proverb 31 wife and mother.
Agreed! Mary is very much ‘a Proverbs 31 Woman!’ She is so inspiring! 😎
Synchronicity.
Homemaking is a virtuous ministry.
Staying at home raising my children was THE BEST time of my life❣️
Those are some cute hoofs paws? you have! The dress and apron are both very cute but them socks really sets everything off!! LOL
Hi beautiful Mary , you look as pretty as a picture as always , waw what lovely things you 've made , thank you for sharing and so nice to hear your calming voice , take care
Peanut butter blossoms are my husbands favorite during the holidays.
Peanut butter blossoms are so good, we started putting a reeses peanut butter cup in the center instead of a kiss and OMG its a game changer if you love peanut butter 🤤
Made your chili soup tonight for dinner, added a cup or so of cooked organic wild rice. Hubs not home from work text but I know he will love it. Serving with organic white cheddar cheese. 😋
Using my turkey roasting pan for something other than my turkey once a year!!!! Mind Blown! Had never thought to use it for anything else....LOVE homemade snack/chex mix!
And using the lid?? 🤯
Mary, I just love watching your videos. They are very calming, yet, intriguiging.
I make peanut butter blossoms yearly, but I started making them with Brachs milk chocolate stars from Walmart. They are flat and store easier. Love the apron. Enjoy the day
Great idea!
Great tip! Thank you🤗
Love that. I’ve used Wilbur buds or I turn my kisses upside down (point first) so they stack better and also stay put easier. I hate unwrapping the kisses for days..
I've been doing that trick for years! So much time taking off foils for sure
Thank you for your videos. I’m from Ohio. About 1 hour north east of you. The videos remind me of home. God Bless!
I agree with you on the making up a batch of hot chocolate and having it ready for whenever. I make a non-dairy version which uses the blender to mix up. Then I just shake the bottle, pour out what I want and reheat in the microwave. Instant enough for me! Yum!
Thank you for sharing your recipes! I especially love seeing your videos where you cook. I love basic recipes, and I enjoy these relatively short but frequent videos.
We always got those little hat cookies from my grandmother so never knew how they were made, now I want to go to town putting them together, Thanks for the reminder of my Grandma Kate!
Peanut blossom cookies are one of those that I make more than just at Christmas time as we love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate! Thank you for sharing all of your wonderful treats and ideas I always enjoy watching you❤️
Love how bright your kitchen is…
The peanut butter Ritz dipped in white chocolate is a whole new game, you'll have to try it. I always sprinkle some edible beads or jimmies on before chocolate sets for a festive touch.
Peanut butter blossoms are my husband's favorite. Well anything with peanut butter is going to melt his heart. I love the farmhouse apron. Another favorite in our house is chili. I always make double. It freezes well for a quick meal for another day.
In our family too. Can't do Christmas goodies without them. Blessings to you and your family.
Thank you for sharing Mary! Merry Christmas!
Love your videos and the wholesomeness of your channel. I also appreciated your silent shout-out to Garden Answers. I move between the 2 of your channels. Thank you for sharing your recipes!
Oh Mary, these all look so yummy! I think the party mix will make great gifts for the guys I work with. I'm hungry now! Thank you for all of your wonderful videos and content. You inspire me tremendously!
Love your channel! Thanks for sharing your crafts, recipe, and the Lord! Merry Christmas! ❤️✝️🎄
I remember my Grandma fixing this hot chocolate on her old wood cook stove when I was a lil girl.... It tasted so delicious.... I'm gonna make me some like it.... Sure miss her....
Always fun to watch you cooking in your bright and beautiful kitchen.
The party mix really takes me back. My mother used to make it every Christmas season.
I do not have my own recipes yet. So thank you for these!
My tiny Frazier Fir candles arrived just on the time you said, and yes!!!-they are the perfect smell for Christmas AND winter! Thank you, MB!!!!
Enjoyed cooking and baking with you!
Love watching you in the kitchen Mary. We also enjoy the bits and bites mix and often add peanuts. Thanks for the recipes.
Beautiful as always . I so enjoy everything you do . Merry Christmas from Ireland .
Muchas gracias beautiful lady. . Thank you for the recipes. . Greetings from Guadalajara, México.
Thank you for your recipes! My mother always made hot cocoa that same way except with sugar instead of the maple syrup. I have very fond memories of coming in from playing in the snow 50+ years ago in southwest Ohio and enjoying warming up with a steaming cup!
Those Ohio winters do warrant bringing on the hot cocoa!
I’ll be trying these recipes out! I just love watching your channel Mary!
For family that doesn't like much dipped in chocolate melts, I use white chocolate and add flavoring in. So orange, mints, raspberries flavors are just a few
Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes. They all look delicious. I also want to say, I just love your music in the background. I could listen to it all day. Thanks for your lovely videos. I always enjoy them.
Your videos bring such joy to the holidays. Take care. Happy Holidays!
I make party mix every year and add lots of nuts. I put it in a large roaster and after the time and mixing it up I leave it in the oven overnight turning the oven off. Makes it really crispy.
Of course the aprons are sold out!!!! Darn.....Everything looks yummy! Ty for all the recipes....
Blessings to you and your family
Good morning Mary!!
Love your pretty apron, and everything looked delicious ❤️
Have a Blessed Week 🙂
Hi Mary, I always look forward to Wednesday morning video, definitely will make one of them, thank you for sharing Mary.
I always make the peanut blossom cookies every year too. Our family are homemade soup eaters also. Our favorite is chicken and vegetables. I make this soup with a bag of mixed frozen vegetables and add potatoes and onions in a large pot filled with chicken broth and water. I add some different spices like Italian seasoning or anything I might have that is good for chicken. I will add a can of white chicken breast drain to the mixture just before the soup is ready. If it is too runny I will add a little corn starch in a small bowl mixed with cold water and slowly add it to the finish soup. Every year I think I will try your recipe for the party mix and I never get around to trying it. Maybe this year……. Thank you for sharing. Ann from Va.
It was really neat to see someone else than my family make chili soup. We were born and raised in the UP and that was an all time favorite. We moved to Ok in 1981 and in time discovered their chili is a little different. It is not a soup and is thicker and is put on top of pasta or Fritos etc. It was just a nice surprise when you made chili soup. I always enjoy your videos and look forward to “ visiting” you. 😊
Greetings Mary from mid Missouri! The ritz peanut butter cookies we call Aunt Josie cookies in our family because it was my ex husbands aunt Josie who first made them for us nearly 35 years ago. I make them (by demand lol) every year since for Christmas…but as several have mentioned , I make half with white chocolate and I actually prefer those to milk chocolate. I also make hot cocoa rather than buying the store bought . Always use milk , never water! That’s sacrilegious lol
Everything looks so delicious!!!!God bless you Mary and your family!!!!
The chocolate kiss cookies are a very classic Christmas cookie. They are very yummy ! tfs 🥰🎄🌞🌛🍭🍬☕🏜️🎅💝✝️🥰🎄🌞🌛🍭🍬☕🏜️🎅💝✝️
This year I’m making peanut butter blossoms, vanilla chip and birds nest cookies.
I love watching you cook. ❤ It is the way I like to cook.
Everything looks amazing. I would add a tot of brandy to the hot cocoa for the adults on very cold days.
Good old Paul Revere ware pan! Its what we have used forever along with our cast iron! Thanks for another great video 💕
I still use Paul Revere cookware. 🙂
@@annh. me too! Am always filling in pieces I find at thrift stores & get their copper bottoms shiny!
@@lindahill3 👍
I hand wash dishes too. When we remodeled our kitchen, everyone was shocked that I didn’t add a dishwasher. Lol. There is a cabinet that can be removed if a future owner wants to add a dishwasher.
I’m with you! I like my cocoa a little on the bitter side. That’s what I grew up on, and that’s how I’ve always fixed it for my family. We love to taste the cocoa flavor better than the sugar. But I must admit, I’ve never thought about using maple syrup. I will give that a try! Enjoy all your videos! Merry CHRISTmas!
I appreciate how health-conscious she is~☆
Hola soy de colombia me encanta todo lo q haces..
I make a similar soup. I add small potato chunks and carrots. We call it hamburger chowder. I'll have to try the ritz/peanut butter crackers. I think my family will like them.
Cute socks!!
Looks so yummy.. The hot chocolate looks real good. The chocolate covered crackers and PeanutButter, that's different, looks good. Thank you...
I just finished making the party mix. I found my big bacon roasting pan from Costco worked perfectly. I just removed the grate and used the pan. I think this just may be a Christmas Eve tradition.
Tastes delicious! Thank you for the recipe Mary and Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Thank you so much for recipes. Cant wait.
I make peanut blossoms too and use instead of white sugar the red and green kind for Christmas 🎄.
Looks so good! 🎄🎅🧑🏻🎄🎄. ⛄️❄️☃️. 🦌🦌🦌
I cant wait to try your cookie recipe. I thicken my chili with a can of tomato paste.
Hot chocolate, I use a 1/2 tsp of vanilla and a tiny bit of sugar. Never thought of maple syrup. Ill have to try that.
Hi Mary, regarding the microwave sparking if you add a small bowl of water in the microwave with the butter it will stop the sparking, we love your vlogs, thank you
Busy day!!! Preparing for Christmas is quite the task..thanks for sharing these easy recipes...the hot chocolate is a "must" to try....🎄☕❤🤗
Sometimes I just sit and binge watch your videos! Over and over!!! I love your home, ideas, and talents.🥰
"Basic" is fine by me. Love yummy comfort food during Christmas. I'm gonna try making your peanut butter cracker treats.
Lovely recipes! I've been making my mother's chocolate chunk cookies & oatmeal pecan cookies for 50 years. They bring back so many good memories. I can't wait to try your hot cocoa recipe. I have all the ingredients, just need a really cold day!
My mom use to use the brachs stars for the peanut butter blossom cookies. 🤩
Thank you for sharing sweet girl. You are a special part of my life!
We love lots of beans in our chili . I use pinto beans and white beans.
Just about the same as I make . So I know your family is looking forward to their Christmas treats.
Peanut blossoms are our family’s favorite too! It’s a “must make” every year!
Everything looks so yummy! ♥♥
We make the peanut butter blossoms every Christmas season!
Thanks for the recipes. All looks yummy. Love your socks 😀🎄
Thanks Mary I hope you have a wonderful Christmas! I always appreciate all you share with us!!
Thanks for sharing these recipes. I do the cookies too but the hot chocolate sounds delicious. Merry Christmas to you and your family! God bless you this holiday season as we celebrate Jesus birth. 🎄🎄🎄
I add salted peanuts to our party mix. I made hot cocoa from scratch for my granddaughters when they ran out of the packaged mix. They were amazed and loved it!
When using the almond bark I always just microwave it, it’s so much easier and it’s nearly impossible to burn. Sometimes I will do a crockpot which is super easy. I know some chips like white chocolate chips not almond bark do burn easy. When I get down to nearing the end of the chocolate I just throw nuts it so I can use every little bit a spoon them out. If it’s white chocolate I’ll use nuts or a fruity cereal or chow me in noodles. Just use what use have
Looks delicious, thanks
I make peanut blossoms every year…it’s tradition! Yes, using the cookie scoop helps them all bake at the same time since they’re the same size!
Thank you for sharing with us. Looked delicious. Apron is so cute.
Yeah, Mary cookies! My Mom never made these but when I first tasted them, I was hooked.
I also never had a dishwasher...just did them as I cooked then placed fresh HOT dishwater in the sink just before eating, for doing dishes right after supper. We also are not big chocolate lovers...my husband loved the old world German cookies with anise or any molasses cookies.
I continue to enjoy your videos! I have made peanut butter blossoms before but I tried your recipe and they are WAY better and look beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Love the simple and delicious recipes I can’t wait to make that hot chocolate when the family is here gathering around the fireplace. Happy holidays to you Mary and your family from all of us that have become a part of a family thanks to you.
I will definitely try Coco for my girls. Thank you💕👍🏻👏🏼
Your holiday snacks look so delicious and mouth watering, will definitely try them. I always look forward to your videos and love the variety of each one with fresh new ideas. Happy Christmas to you and your family! 🎄🇳🇿
Always love your recipes! TFS!!!
Everything looks yummy!
Great job Mary!!!
I just made Party Mix this morning! 😄 My family’s recipe uses onion salt and garlic salt instead of the salt you were using. It also includes mixed nuts - which I thing my mom added to balance out the cereal with some protein. I noticed you added flour to the beef for the chili. I’m guessing to help thicken it. I don’t remember my mom doing that, but when I started cooking for my own family, we started crushing up some tortilla chips in the chili to help thicken it. I never measure. I just grab a handful or two and crush them into the soup. I keep meaning to try adding hominy to chili, but haven’t tried it yet. Your chili looks delicious, so I suspect I’ll be making some soon! Thanks for sharing what you’ve been making lately!
We also added elbow macaroni to the chili but I prefer it plain.
Tortillas are a great idea! My husband adds Doritos crushed up when he makes burger patties! You guys are so creative!
Love it all ,thanks so much for sharing🙏
I love homemade hot chocolate! Love the bitter better than sweet!
We also enjoy the Chex muddy buddies, very nice holiday video.
It all looks so yummy!
Everything looks delicious!! 😋
