Good Wednesday night everyone! Hope your week is going well, it is already almost Thursday?! How did that happen?! I would like to say thank you very much to each of my readers for leaving me a birthday greeting. I really appreciate getting all those birthday comments. I had a fun day which ended with my Mom making me Lasagna for dinner (special request), birthday presents, & a Tres Leches Cake. I still don't feel like I am 17. =)
Okay, starting with my Top Ten Appetizers, here is #10. A simple and easy but yummy dip. These pretzels are something new our Sam's Club is carrying. I thought they were pretty neat!
"Party Dip"16 oz. sour cream
16 oz. sm. curd cottage cheese
8 oz. Cool Whip
1 pkg. Ranch Dip
DIRECTIONS:
Mix all ingredients together. Chill before serving. Best if prepared 4-8 hours ahead.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------These little treats are quite tasty and don't take that much time to make. If you're a fan of Reese, you'll be sure to love these!

Hi Priscilla! I think I am the first to comment! :) Thank you for your comment on my blog. I didn't change the name, just the title bar script, but now I realize that's kind of confusing looking! So I changed it back to mrs. jy - and then the quote. The actual title of my blog is just "mrs. jy", but I am thinking about changing it.
I think its interesting your dip has cool whip in it! I didn't expect that at all since its sweet. I'll have to try it. My husband was sitting beside me as I was reading your entry, and when he saw the mini peanut butter cheesecakes, he said "I need that!! Can we make those now?". He's a PB fiend and these will probably be making an appearance in my kitchen soon. :)
Wow. All I can is wow. Lol those peanut butter cheesecakes look AMAZING! I'm seriously gonna have to try those.
All I can "say" lol sorry bout that=)
I, too, was shocked about the cool whip in the dip. It has piqued my interest!!!
And those mini cheesecakes look divine!
As always, thanks for the awesome recipes!
ok, the first 2 items, I do combine for a chip dip (ruffles only):) the cool whip and ranch with those threw me for a loop. lol
Interesting!
Both recipes look yummy! I'm kinda disappointed not to see your face in the picture! :)
Grumpy would be right after those PB Cheesecake bites!
I just realized your from Iowa! I used to live in Cedar Rapids. I never heard of Moscow IA though.
What time is the party? Bring extra pretzels and party dip! That dip is on my Christmas list.
I love pretzels. I will have to look for those! the dip looks good too and of course the sweet treat looks amazing!!
Hi Priscilla, pleased you had a great 17th birthday with yummy food and a lovely cake :)
Your dip looks good and those mini cheesecakes look amazing!!

Cool Whip and Ranch dip? That sounds so intriguing I might just have to try it! Kind of a sweet-and-salty combo.
Your dip sounds interesting, I'm trying it for sure to see what this is all about.
my husband needs those PB cheesecakes NOW.
The dip sounds really interesting. I am sure it's so tasty.
The mini cheesecakes are so clever! I've never thought to make something like this before. Great recipe.
Hope your birthday was special.
Interesting dip! I'm sure the ranch-y flavor overrides the Cool Whip. Doesn't it?
the cheesecakes are awesome. I love mini ones.
I'm glad you're doing this, I'm throwing a party on Wed, and I need some fun ideas! The cheesecake cookies look fantastic!!
What great looking recipes Priscilla! Love those cute little cheesecakes, YUM!
I"m glad you had a great birthday! 17 was such a good year for me, I hope it brings even more wonderful things to you than it did for me! I'm making this dip for my christmas party this weekend!
Those cheesecakes look sinful!
I want one of those cheesecakes NOW! they look so good!!
Those cheesecakes are sinful....totally sinful - it wouldn't stop me from eating them. The pretzels from Sam's Club - I found the little ones filled with peanut butter. Absolutely unusual and really good but there's a limit to how many you can eat.
those pretzel crackers are so yummy! your cupcakes remind me of black bottom cupcakes, which are basically chocolate cupcakes with a scoop of a cream cheese/choc chip filling in the center. They're really delicious!
Hello! I just love your blog! My mom at 3 girls me and a recipe talks about your blog all the time and the yummy food you make, and I made the mistake of stopping by before lunch and now im starving!! These little cheesecakes look delicious! I just might have to make them! Thanks for the recipe!
You are quite amazing...I love the fact that you are so young and you have learned so much...It is wonderful! Meme
