Mickey and Minnie Oreo Cupcakes

I got this recipe from a friend in my class, but as I was looking over it, I realized that the recipe for the cupcakes is the same recipe for Triple Chocolate Bundt Cake.  You just bake them for 20 minutes at 325.  The icing I used is just a block of cream cheese, softened, a tub of Cool Whip, and five crushed Oreos.  To make them look like Mickey and Minnie, I just used one big Oreo for the head and two mini Oreos for the ears.  Add a bow for Minnie and Voila! Finito!  We LOVE them!

Garlic Cheese Bread

I received this recipe from one of our dear CES missionaries serving in WV when we were first married.  They even came to our wedding reception.  I will always think of Sister Workman when I make this recipe. I took this over to Nana and Papa's last night for spaghetti with Uncle Jim and family.  Everyone loved it.

1 loaf French Bread, sliced lengthwise
1 pound Tillamook cheese, grated (Sis. Workman said any sharp cheese works, so I use sharp cheddar as it is cheaper and more easily found in the stores.)
1 medium jar Mayonnaise
Garlic powder to taste

Mix all ingredients and spread evenly on sliced bread.
Heat in oven (350) until the cheese melts and the mixture begins to bubble.
