Pinwheels are always a fun choice for a quick dinner or appetizer. These Turkey Cheddar Pinwheels are delicious! Flaky dough, melted cheese and butter…What’s not to like? Grab your 9 x 13 That’s My Pan and make some tonight.

Here’s what you need.

Two rolls of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls

1 lb sliced turkey

12 slices of Colby Jack cheese

1/2 stick melted butter

1 Tbsp parsley

Grease your pan and pre-heat oven to 350.

Lay out your Crescent Roll dough and press down the perforated parts.  Layer on slices of turkey , then cheese. Gently roll length-wise until you have one uniform roll. Slice the roll into 1/2 inch pinwheels and place in the pan.

Repeat this process with the second sheet of crescent rolls.

Once you have your pan filled with pinwheels, pour or brush melted butter over the tops.

Sprinkle parsley flakes over the whole surface.

Bake at 350 for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, cool and enjoy!

Who doesn’t like to dress up every now and then? Give your green beans a makeover and wow your family with these Fancy Green Beans. There are a couple of steps but they are fast and you can pop them in the oven to finish while you work on something else. I used the 8 x 8 That’s My Pan but if you want a little extra crisp, you can spread the beans out on the 9 x 13 pan.

Here’s what you need.

3 cans french style green beans (drained)

5-6 slices of bacon ( I cooked in the oven but you could use bacon bits in a pinch)

2/3 cup of brown sugar

1/4 cup melted butter

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 tsp garlic powder

Pre-heat oven to 350.

Step one would be baking the bacon in the oven. Once they are fully cooked, drain on a paper towel and then break up into bacon bits. If you have bacon bits on hand you can use about 1/2 cup.

Step Two:

Combine melted butter, soy sauce, brown sugar and garlic powder in a microwave safe bowl.  Heat for 2 minutes. Remove from microwave and stir thoroughly.

Step Three:

Pour the drained green beans into a large bowl. Pour the soy mixture over the beans. Toss the bacon bits in and stir until the beans are well covered. Spread the beans in your pan and bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.  I stirred mine at about 12 minutes and put them back in the oven for 12 more.

Remove from oven and serve warm.

Cranberries are usually reserved for “sauce” at this time of year but why not try them in a dessert? A cake to be precise. The tart taste of the berries ,in this recipe, blends nicely with the sweet subtle vanilla in a combination that will be the perfect finish to your holiday dinner.

On a side note…

I ran late for a family dinner this weekend and actually made up the batter, poured it in my 9 x 13 That’s My Pan, covered it with the personalized lid and ran out the door.  When I arrived at dinner, I snatched the lid off, threw the pan in the oven and the cake was done by the time we finished eating.  How’s that for convenient?

Here’s what you need to make your own Cranberry-Vanilla Cake.

2  3/4 Cups all-purpose flour

1  2/3 Cups sugar

1  1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

4 large eggs

3/4 Cup melted butter

3/4 Cup milk

1 tsp vanilla extract

2  1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries

Grease a 9 x 13 pan and pre-heat oven to 350.

Mix all the dry ingredients (- cranberries) in a large bowl and whisk until well blended.

Add in the wet ingredients and blend with a hand or stand mixer. The batter should be thick so don’t worry.

Fold in the cranberries and pour the batter in the pan.

Since the batter is thick you will have to spread it around evenly.

Bake in the oven for 35-45 min. or until golden brown and an inserted toothpick comes out clean.

Remove from oven, cool slightly and serve dusted with a bit of powdered sugar.

Mix everything for the batter, EXCEPT the BUTTER,  in one large bowl. Once you have it mixed to batter consistency, slowly stir in the melted butter. Pour into your greased 9×13.

Next, mix the ingredients for the topping. Once mixed, plop spoonfuls onto your cake. It will not matter if there is even coverage, so don’t worry if it looks like not enough.

Tis the season for fun food!  If you love cookies, are looking for something special to cook with your kids or grand kids, or are just looking for treats to give to friends and neighbors, these Shortbread Bites are just the thing.  My kids like the sprinkles and I like pecan shortbreads so we end up splitting them. You can top however you like, which makes these cookies extra fun and special. Get your  9 x 13 pan and lets get cooking.

You will need

1 cup salted butter, cold and sliced into 1 TBSP pieces

2/3 cup sugar

2 1/4 cup all purpose flour

1/2 tsp almond extract

2 Tbsp nonpareils or pecans or sprinkles

Line your 9×13 with parchment paper. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar and then add in the almond extract. Slowly mix in your flour. It will look like sand but that’s ok. When everything is mixed and you have your dough, put in the pan on the parchment paper and pat the dough out until it fills the 9×13. I used my hands then the bottom of a measuring cup to tap down. When you have the dough spread evenly, chill it in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes.

Remove the dough from the fridge, pour on the pecan pieces or sprinkles or whatever you have, and press in to the dough. remove the parchment sheet and dough, and transfer to counter so you can start cutting. You will cut the dough into 1/2 inch cubes. Place them on your buttered 9×13 pan and bake on 350 for 10 min.

Remove from oven and let cool, then enjoy!

Are you looking for a new treat for your Holiday guests? Maybe you need a little something to give as teacher or neighbor gifts? You will love this Graham Cracker Pecan Toffee! It was easy to make and is delicious when finished. Grab your 9×13 pan and get started on your new favorite sweet treat.

You will need…

1 to 2 sleeves of Graham crackers (for my pan I ended up using about 10 sheets)

1 Stick of Butter

3/4 cups of Brown Sugar

1 tsp Vanilla

1 and 1/2 cups of chopped Pecans

Pre heat your oven to 350

Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom of the pan.

Lay out the sheets of Graham crackers to fit the bottom of the pan.

In a small pot over medium heat, melt butter, brown sugar and vanilla. When it starts boiling, add in your pecans and stir. Let the mixture boil for around 2 minutes, or until it starts to look shiny and is getting thick.

Remove from heat and pour over the graham crackers. Spread to evenly coat. Don’t worry if you don’t get every little spot covered, it will even out in the baking process.

Place in the oven for 10 minutes. Then remove from oven and let cool slightly. Remove the parchment sheet and place on a cooling rack or on your counter top to finish cooling.

When completely cool, cut or break into pieces, put in a dish and enjoy!

My daughter LOVES Nutella and in the spirit of Christmas, we made a Nutella Christmas Tree. This dessert is a bit involved, only because of the cutting. The end result was a really cute and tasty chocolate filled pastry! It is also a fun-to-eat food because you get to tear off your piece. Get your 9×13 sheet pan and lets get creative!

You will need…

1 box of puff pastry (2 sheets)

Nutella spread

1 egg

1 Tbsp powdered sugar (only as garnish)

Pre heat your oven to 350.

Lay out 1 thawed puff pastry sheet on a pan sized piece of parchment paper. The parchment paper just makes it easier to transfer the finished product from pan to plate.

You will cut the sheet to resemble a tree, like so…

Spread the Nutella over the surface…

Lay the other sheet on the top and cut to the outline of the original tree.

Once you have the shapes matching, cut strips, leaving a space in the middle of the tree…

Then, starting from the bottom and working your way up, twist each strip and press the ends down gently.

You should end up with this…

Whisk one egg and brush over the surface of your tree, then place in the oven to bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Once done, remove from oven and cool completely.

When cooled, dust with the powdered sugar. Now cover with your personalized That’s My Pan lid and take to a friend or just transfer to a serving dish and enjoy!
