EASY SOPAPILLA CHEESECAKE BARS
Around my house we can’t say Sopapilla for some reason. We end up calling them Sofa Pillows. Because we’re goobers like that. So for all intents and purposes, this is Sofa Pillow Cheesecake Bars in my house instead of Easy Sopapilla Cheesecake Bars. 😉
WHAT ARE SOPAPILLAS?
They are basically fried dough covered in cinnamon sugar. And they look like little Sofa Pillows. So this cheesecake is a take on that lovely fried dough. Except this has a cream cheese layer smushed in the middle. Did I mention there was melted butter on top? Along with cinnamon sugar? Oh yeah. Not only is this dessert so simple to make, it tastes incredible!
SOPAPILLA CHEESECAKE BARS VIDEO INCLUDED BELOW:
CREAM CHEESE CRESCENT BARS
My Grandma actually made these when she visited us a few years back except she just called her recipe Cream Cheese Crescent Bars. The only real difference was she used white sugar in the filling instead of brown. I gotta say, I kinda like it both ways. I think the white filling looks a bit prettier than the brown but the brown sugar gives it a slightly deeper flavor.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
refrigerated crescent rolls (or crescent roll dough sheets)
cream cheese
sugar (white or brown)
vanilla extract
for the topping:
salted butter
sugar
cinnamon
HOW TO MAKE SOPAPILLA CHEESECAKE BARS:
Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray (I like the kind that has flour in it.) Unroll one tube of crescent rolls and layer in bottom of pan, pressing seams together.
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until blended.
Spread cream cheese mixture over bottom layer of crescent rolls.
Layer remaining crescent rolls on top. Drizzle with melted butter. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.
Bake, uncovered for 30-40 minutes, until bottom layer looks golden brown. Cut into 12 squares.
And serve.
I think these are really good drizzled with honey or chocolate syrup.
Enjoy!

My daughter and grandchild will be moving in with me this week. I think I'm going to need all the shortcuts I can get! Love all your recipes. Thank you! [email protected] Karen
Hi! One of my short-cuts in the kithen for a quick and easy family meal is to use a bag of frozen meatballs and add some brown gravy to them, instant potatoes and a veggie on the side. Or to make it Italian, use jarred spaghetti sauce and add a salad and garlic bread. Thanks and good luck to everyone!

Love these cookbooks and who in their right mind wouldnt want to learn of any shortcuts??? thanks for the chance to win one!!
I am in my 50's and returning to school (YIKES) I could so use this book…

I always clean up as I go along. It's a good way to stay organized and saves time.

I need sum shortcuts! 🙂 Hi!
[email protected]
When I want to ice cupcakes or drizzle a glaze on a cake, I use a ziplock bag with the corner cut off. You can make pretty swirls on cupcakes with a larger hole. Cut the hole smaller to drizzle the glaze over a bundt cake for a pretty presentation.
I love to keep my dishes done up as I am cooking…less to do afterwards 🙂

Love your blog! Love the recipes we have tried so far! What mom with busy hungry boys couldn't use short cuts?!
[email protected]
Love, love, love your site with all the GREAT recipes & information! I am a wife, mother, grandmother, pastor's wife & assistant to the sheriff in my county (talk about needing a short cut!) My twin sister collects these cookbooks…this would be a great one to start my own collection!

I could so use a book full of shortcuts! What mom of a toddler couldn't? 😉 Love love love your site! Thanks for all the great recipes!!
Hello Brandie, I'm probably one of your biggest fans! I watch your youtube videos faithfully..I just adore you 🙂 I see this is an old contest but wanted to write something anyways God Bless you and thanks you for all you do for us.. much love -Angie
I save my beef and chicken broth and pour it into an ice cube tray.After it freezes put the cubes into baggies That way I have individual sizes of broth…and its much better then store brand.

Canned biscuits make very easy and great tasting donuts.
[email protected]
Using cake mixes and pre-made biscuits, then adding to them to change up what you make is the best tip I use. Would love to win the cookbook :)…[email protected]
I rarely use a whole onion, so I chop up the whole onion and store it in my freezer in old baby food containers…perfect!!
Hello, please enter me into your giveaway! =] I love cookbooks! I'm not that good at cooking yet though… But with more books it shouldn't take me too long! =]
Ella,
I use cake mixes to make dump cakes, everything is just dumped into the cake pan. I roll out biscuits to make hot pockets. I also chop up my onions and green peppers and freeze for later use. I buy the chopped bacon from the salad bar at the grocery store. It is precooked and chopped and I can get about 2 cups for $1.00. I keep it frozen in the freezer, ready to use.
Being a mom to two very hungry twin boys, I sure could use a cookbook full of shortcuts to help get dinner on the table faster and easier! Thanks!!
I like to have sugar & cinnamon together in a shaker to add to buttered toast, puddings, oatmeal and other cereals.
I always keep canned biscuits and other canned rolls on hand. Good for many different speedy dinners. Wrapping hotdogs with biscuits is a favorite for kids. Dumplings in soups and stews can be added easily with canned biscuit pieces. Would love to win a cookbook. Thanks for the offer. [email protected]
Hi, I love Gooseberry Patch cookbooks and anything that is a time saver in the kitchen is great to have. Hope I'm the one who gets this great new book. Thank you.
[email protected]
I love any kind of cookbook & love to share recipes with our 12 year old granddaughter who loves to cook & use her imagination. My best shortcut is to ask my husband to go into the pantry or cupboard & get me things for a recipe so I don't have to stop! That's a shortcut for sure to me!!
my email is [email protected]
I just love Gooseberry cookbooks & would love to have this one!
Thanks so much!
Hello I would love a chance to win the cookbook it looks amazing. I love nothing better than cooking special things for my family. One shortcut I use that is oh so good I make potato salad out of leftover mashed potatoes. Have a great day.
Would love to win this cookbook! One can never have too many cookbooks!! Blessings, Kimberly S. ([email protected])

Gloria
Living in the south this dish is a staple at any get together! YUM!!! There are so many shortcuts with crescents and biscuits it would be great to get some more ideas!!
I would love to win. I could really use some kitchen short cuts. I'm moving away from home for the first time and my room mate and I will be alternating cooking duties so I'll need all the help I can get.
I LOVE short cuts! My favorite show is Semi-Homemade with Sandra Lee on the Food Network.
I would love to win this cookbook. I love to cook for my family and am always collecting cookbooks to give to my daughter when she gets older. Tammy R. ([email protected])
my best hint is to make double of whatever and freeze for the next time. I am always open to new hints and ideas. been making some recipes from my mom from back in the 50's people laugh at potato candy and velvetta fudge.! but oh are they gooooddddd.
Hello
I would love to win this cookbook. I love to make desserts and stuff to take to work or family gatherings and would LOVE to get the shortcuts. My e-mail address is [email protected] PLEASE PICK ME!!!!!
This book looks great and thanks everyone for the ideas [email protected]
hell i can use a book like this
My cannot give up shortcut is to have a weekly menu planned using the slow cooker almost daily, & I stick to it.. On the weekend I shop & chop veggies. After spending 20 hrs a day with 2 of my grands st their place I go home to a home cooked meal. We don't eat asmuch take out. The next day I get up, start another slow cooker meal & do it all again. Shortcuts? Oh yea I could use a book on those! Rhonda
[email protected]
10 hrs not 20, LOL
I could sure use a cookbook of short cuts! I enjoy cooking but resort to the same old easy quick meals b/c other recipes take so long to fix.
[email protected]
This cookbook would be great for my family! Thanks for the chance to win! My favorite shortcut in the kitchen is baking bacon in the oven instead of a skillet on the stove. It is so much easier! Thanks! jstone 45601 @ gmail . com
I am always looking for short cuts in the kitchen and this book would be a great help!
shortcuts?? so many i do use, my fav is buying dried herbs in bulk, mixing my own together for italian seasonings, cajun etc.then after putting into "TABLE" jars i freeze the rest,[email protected]
I just discovered your blog & can hardly wait to try some of the recipes!
My tip is not really a shortcut…
I love to make big batches to have on hand in the freezer.
I LOVE Gooseberry cookbooks & would love to win this one!!
I am all for learning new shortcuts in the kitchen! Would love to win this book to learn more. I always try to cut up celery, onion and peppers to freeze so they will always be on hand for recipes.
[email protected]
i love this recipe now im glad i have it. thanks a bunch. I would love to have the cookbook as well 🙂
I love anything that can help me cut the amount of time I am in the kitchen making dinner , dessert or appetizers. This looks like it would be quite the help in that manner.
msgb245 at gmail dot com
I guess my shortcuts in the kitchen would be not to make anything that was too complicated or had too many ingredients. I like simple things.
[email protected]
Love that recipe – looks so good! I try to do most things homemade but I'm all for learning shortcuts. I posted your giveaway on our Facebook group – The Cookbook Junkies!
I'm all about shortcuts. Mr. Food is a big food inspiration for me. And my mom's way of cooking often involved easy store-bought items that she would "doctor up." Would love to see what this cookbook has to offer. 🙂
I separate my ground meats into appx. 1 pound balls and put them into freezer baggies. Then I get all of the air out of the baggies and smash the balls flat. This makes the meat easier to store and defrosting a thin layer is SO much easier than a hunk of meat!!! I can take out a pound of meat and be ready to cook it in less than 15 minutes. A must-have trick in a house with an 11 year old who is involved in everything under the sun and a mom who is a full-time college student! Regardless of whether I win or not, I hope this helps someone out there!!!
I'm 74 years old and bake quite a bit. Recently, I remembered what we did in Home Ec when I was young. Thatis, to get all the ingredients out and line them upon the counter befor I start to bake and I don't have to keep running back and forth to get anything. Also, I use Rachael Ray's garbage bowl, which saves a lot of time.
When cooking hamburger or sausage and you want tiny crumbles, add a cup or so of water when cooking. Makes it easier to make very fine crumbles.
As busy as I am with working a full time job here at home, with all the extra hours I work, I could definately use a shortcut cookbook! Please enter me in the contest. Love the recipe!

Pick Me .. Pick Me!!!
L love cookbooks

Love GP cookbooks and any shortcut I can get to save time! Thanks!
One of my favorite time-savers in the kitchen is to used pre-washed/pre-cut veggies.
I love already chopped ready to use veggies…onions, herbs, mushroom!
Still fresh! Just less time to prepare your dishes!
I just recently found your site and I really enjoy your recipes. I would love to have this cookbook.
I can always use shortcuts and new recipes to try … love so many of your recipes, thanks for posting them.
I just get vegetables washed, cut, wrapped in paper towel and put into a freezer bag, into the fridge. Makes it easier when I start to cook or make a salad. I would love to win this cookbook though to learn more shortcuts 🙂
Love your recipes because it's usually so easy to cut them in half for the two of us, or make more by doubling or tripling for a potluck. Rainy and nasty here today so trying your Crock Pot Lasagna for the first time. Following up with the Sopapilla for dessert. Have to splurge once in awhile! Thanks!
I love Gooseberry Patch cook books. I'm always on the look out for new ones!!!
My shortcut is to chop, dice, and prep your food on sunday that way you can use it the rest of the workweek
My short cut in the kitchen is to simply get take out. I'm really trying to get out of that routine and start cooking. I need a cookbook and would love to win this one!
My short-cut roasted chicken from the market. I can make dishes that you would think I was in the chicken all day. They have that much flavor.
Crockin chicken breast and freezing the meat and broth in 2 cup containers. I can pull it out at a moment's notice and whip up several dishes quickly.
I try to do alot of prep ahead of time to save time when I'm actually cooking! This cookbook looks great! [email protected]
I like toget all ingrediants out and measured and ready to gomuch quicker
[email protected] says that chopping, chopping, chopping for the week can be done in one or at most two sessions. Get the chopping on, rock out to some good music and have great homemade salads and stir frys at the drop of a hat when you get home from work. 🙂
Your site has become my new FAVORITE recipe go to and I have pinned a few and blogged few too!
I am just learning the shortcuts, but so far my favorite is mini chicken pot pies ❤ but I can't WAIT to try this cheesecake 🙂
I really need some shortcuts. I love to cook for my family, but since I have M.S., I am beginning to try to find ways to cook so the taste is the same, but a little cheating never hurts the cook. No, I am not using the M.S. card just to win a free item. It is true, unfortunately. It is easier to find great tasting shortcuts now than in the past, but this book looks like the kind of food we love. Susan Ricke,Greensburg, IN [email protected]
I love thinking up shortcuts in the kitchen, the only problem is, that my shortcuts always come out disaterous. I would be blessed to have a tried and true Shortcuts cookbook in my kitchen, my family would be grateful too. 🙂 [email protected]
I chop and freeze green peppers for quick use on busy days.
[email protected]
With a large family, shortcuts are a MUST!! Thanks for all the tips above! The cookbook looks wonderful.

Hi!
My name is Sandy and I love baking… have since I was in 8th grade. A cookbook like this would help a single mom like me tremendously. I'm usually busy either working, doing something with/for my 15 yr old son or going to different types of church events.
Love your recipes and you!

I would love to get my hands on this Newest Cook Book! WAHOO…it looks like a good one!
One of my favorite "short cuts" in the kitchen is to save extra tomato sauce, spaghetti Sauce or Pizza Sauce in a ice tray. Just pour it in, freeze then pop them into a freezer zip lock baggie. You can add them to any recipe! 🙂

I just 'found' this site/blog and I love it!!! I've used some of the recipes! The Sopapilla Cheesecake was a huge hit!! It was gone before the night was over!!! Thank you so much for sharing!
Not really shortcuts, but I've learned to almost "double" some things. For example, canned frosting. Put it in a bowl and whip it with your electric beaters. Adding the air almost doubles what's in the can. Cooked meats can be thrown into the Kitchenaid mixer and be shredded with the paddle attachment, this gives me almost double vs. cubing the meat or shredding it with two forks.
Kathy Stephenson [email protected]
If all the recipes are as easy and great as this one then this book is going to be AWESOME! My shortcut is to freeze different fruits and veggies from the summer months in small containers that are the perfect size for adding to dishes or the fruit for pies and cobblers and such. That's all I got really. (or just a frozen pizza here and there for another shortcut)teehee!
I love all your short cuts! They are always so awesome. Thanks for sharing them with us so often 🙂
I love any kind of short cut….I tend to lose interest when I see more than 5 or 6 ingredients! I'm such a tightwad that I think any more than that could get expensive too!
I recently learned of the short cut to shredded chicken. I use alot of shredded chicken and it would take me so long. This trick is everywhere on pinterest but I tried it and it works and makes me feel a little bit better about making those dishes so often. Place it in my stand mixer, use the paddle attachment, and turn it on 2 for about 1-2 minutes.

Canned biscuits is a great shortcut to use for many recipes when in a hurry…to make dumplings, fried pies, pigs in a blanket, baked apple dumplings, bottom crust of a cobbler, etc. Please enter me for the giveaway. Thanks

I would love to have this cookbook. I just started to enjoy cooking. So, I need to take baby steps..lol…Thank you for such a wonderful site. I have made a couple of recipes and my hubby loved them, which is surprising because I don't cook.. 🙂
I have just really started cooking in the last 2 years and what I really like about the books is that the recipes are simple and easy to follow, and a lot of comfort recipes. They make me think of my mom's cooking. I love the christmas recipe books.
I love all your recipes! And I could definitely use a cookbook…I'm getting married in 2 months and it would definitely come in handy for a new wife 🙂 [email protected]
Since I hardly ever use enough fresh herbs to finish a bunch before they go bad, I whizz them up in the food processor, use my cookie scoop and make 2 tablespoon mounds of herbs on a cookie sheet. Pop into the freezer for a couple of hours and then remove them to a plastic baggie labeled with the herb inside. Then when I need something, I just pull out my perfect portion and plop it in my dish as I'm cooking. 🙂
Hello! When I am making breads, pizza crusts, meatballs, I like to make double and then freexe for next time. I also like to seperate my meats when I buy in bulk. I also have a weekly menu based on the sales in the grocery store so I can cut costs as well!!
This looks so good. I can't wait to try it. I would also love to add this book to my collection. It looks great. Thanks for posting the recipe for us to all get a chance to try.
I would love to win this cookbook 🙂 I recently fractured my foot and can't do much but I can still bake and I could use some inspiration 🙂
I don't really use any shortcuts. I have found my food processor to save lots of time chopping/shredding vegetables! I would love this recipe book!
[email protected]
As a busy retiree, I could use some shortcut recipes!! Seems I'm busier retired than when I was working!!!! Kathy
[email protected]
I guess the best shortcut I have learned the the artisan bread in 5 recipe, I can keep a big container of dough in the fridge for pizzas, homemade rolls & bread. TOO easy and so much healthier and faster than using frozen dough.
Using frozen peppers and onions in homemade spaghetti sauce instead of doing all that chopping
I AM A COLLECTOR OF GOOSEBERRY PATCH BOOKS. I FREEZE LEFTOVER RICOTTA CHEESE, GRAVIES, JAR SAUCE AND SALSA TO HELP SAVE ON WASTED FOODS.
As a full time mom and a full time nurse – I can use any shortcuts that give my family a yummy meal- I would live this cookbook!
[email protected]
Hello! You're recipes are sooo good! I have found that if I wash up dishes and utensils as I use them saves lots of time and gives me a minute or two to collect thoughts and/or think about another recipe to try. Thanks so much for sharing such good food.
I just love these cookbooks, they are simple and easy directions. I love the Christmas cookbooks. The recipes makes me think of recipes from my mom and grandmother. Comfort recipes and recipes that my family loves.
[email protected]
I love to use a rotisserie chicken from the store when I can…so much faster and taste so good!!
When I have a bell pepper and don't need it all, I chop the rest and put it in a ziploc in the freezer. The frozen bits can be added directly to stirfrys, soups, etc.
This recipe looks awesome….can't wait to try it! I would love this cookbook, too. My daughters are at the age where they are expanding their attempts at cooking so things will be a little easier when they get out on their own! Seems kids these days love shortcuts. This book would give us a lot of great ideas. 🙂

love to cook ,love your books.
My 2 DIL's recently became fans as well.
I like to keep a list of quick ideas handy & the ingredients on hand to be prepared for drop in company or when short on time.
Would LOVE to use this book.Thanks for th e opportunity .
Just found your blog a couple of weeks ago and am lovin all the recipes. Tried the apple dumplins and they were a hit with all the guys my husband works with. Now the cheese pillows. WOW!!! I'm in heaven!!!
My biggest shortcut in the kitchen is grating garlic w/ a microplane instead of chopping or mincing! ~EMM
I love your web site!! Thank you for letting us enjoy all your finds. A shortcut cookbook would sure come in handy!GBT
Being a mother and a wife i always look for a shortcut! Anything that goes in the crock pot works for me. This time of year it would be chicken tortilla soup…pot roast and potato soup! LOVE THEM!! Anything using crescents or premade pie crusts are great too…
I don't really have any shortcuts, so I sure could use this book! This recipe sounds amazing, I will have to try it soon.
Love Gooseberry Patch and short cuts!!! Canned biscuits, tubs of soft cream cheese, frozen chopped onions….so many great short cuts. Would love to learn some more. I'm making the Sofa Pillows Wednesday after grocery shopping! Thanks!
I love recipes that don't take many ingredients so this cookbook would be perfect for me.
I want to tell you that I LOVE your website!!
[email protected]
I can use any and all short cuts I can get! I would love to have this new cookbook. 🙂
Happy Cooking!
Thank you for the recipes! I would love to have the cook book, I am teaching my teenage soon to cook. Easy recipes help keep his attention.

I think one of the best things to do is to make a weekly menu. That way, you know exactly what you are making each night and don't have to go through the cupboards over and over again deciding what to cook. [email protected]

One of my shortcuts is using canned biscuit dough in place of homemade dumplings in making Chicken and Dumpling.
[email protected]
That sounds like a great recipe from a great cookbook!
Thanks ever SO much for giving me a good chuckle this morning! My deceased mother could say 'sopapillas' either. She said 'SOAPY PILLOWS'(even in restaurants!). I love your blog. I have printed so many of your recipes and tried bunches of them.
I also enjoy very much 'Gooseberry Patch' cookbooks. Thanks again!
[email protected]
Things like pre-chopped nuts, breadcrumbs, graham cracker crumbs, etc. help save time.
[email protected]
When I bake I set out all my ingrediants that I wil need. I put them away as I use them, this way they are put away and I know I didint forget anything.

I would love an opportunity to win the Gooseberry Cookbook! I love their cookbooks(I have several already!) I am a working mom with 3 growing boys, a husband, and taking care of my mother in law. Short cuts for quick, healthy meals would be a great help!
Thank you so much for all of your recipes and the chance to win this cookbook.

Hello! Would love to have this cookbook to add to my collection. Love your blog!
You've went and did it again Brandie! Another great shortcut recipe. Just about anything using crescent roll dough is a winner in my book.
Speaking of books I NEED that cookbook! I have been so busy recently with work and getting the kitchen ready I'll take just about any shortcut I can get!
I use bite size pieces of raw canned biscuit dough as my dumplings in Chicken and Dumplings. Many years ago my Mom (and Nanny) both shook their heads like they couldn't figure out where they went wrong when I told them I did that 🙂
[email protected]
Thanks for all you do, Brandie! Love your recipes, your blog, etc. You have rapidly become one of my favorite "places" to visit. I like using shortcuts because it means I can make more "goodies" more frequently and increase the variety of things I make. I like to use cake mixes, refrigerated cookie dough, and cookie mixes as bases for lots of things—it's amazing what you can come up with! I do a lot of baking for office functions–birthdays, Board meetings, "just because I felt like baking,"—and would not be able to do as much with out shortcuts. I would love the opportunity to win this cookbook—Gooseberry Patch is great!
Thanks for all you do!
[email protected]
Oh, -please- add me to your list. I do so need to be inspired. 🙂 After 47 years of marriage I am "burnt" out with cooking, have run out of inspiration and excitment.Your site helps me get revived again.
I have already made your Twinkie cake and loved it, as did my grown daughter and her family who got to help me eat it.
Going shopping today to get ingredients for several of your other great recipes.
No tips today, but I do have a few old recipes I would love to share with you…
Here's hoping..with fingers crossed..
[email protected]
Thanks for all the great recipes.
I love cookbooks! This would be a great timesaver with homemade taste, yet convenience! Would love to win! Love your AWESOME BLOG!
[email protected]
Try to always keep chopped onion in the frig.
I recently got my first pressure cooker and I love it. Great to come home from work and do a beef stew in 12-15 min, chicken breast in 6 min. This cookbook could also be adaptable to that. I am a new viewer to your site and love it by the way.
I always use graham crackers in a 13 x 9 baking dish as the crust for a pudding style dessert or pie! No one knows I did not spend HOURS making the crust!
I try to do anything in advance so the day that I need something fast I have it ready to go. Thanks for the chance to enter.

Best thing ever to be invented would be cake mixes they can help me bake cookies or even a choco flan. Saves me time all the time. Great giveaway!
My big shortcut is preparing lots of food on Sunday afternoons so that i have less cooking to do during the week! it really helps not having to prepare a lunch for work everyday
Oh Brandie – this is one of my top favorite recipes! I have a similar one in my cookbook…but I haven't ever tried it with the brown sugar. What a wonderful change up! I love to precook meats to keep in the freezer to make meal making quicker. You and I share such similar taste buds! =)
I would love to win this cookbook so I could add this to my Gooseberry Collection. They are my absolute favorite. My shortcuts would have to be canned biscuits (they can be the crust for anything) and crescents (you can fill them with anything for a quick snack).
oops I forgot to add my e-mail for the above comment. it is [email protected]
Wow, that sounds fantastic! My wife keeps telling me all these delicious tales about sopapillas, and who can resist cheesecake?
I do Family Childcare so I do monthlt nenues and then I serve what the childcare children have for lunch to my family for dinner. Susan [email protected]
Cake mixes are the best shortcut to work with!
I've been making this recipe for awhile now. 'Round these parts it's called Cheese Blintz, though. 😉
please enter me in book contest – with 4 kids, who couldn't use some shortcuts in the kitchen??? [email protected]
I bet there is a great recipe on every page. I love the one you made for this post. It looks fantastic!
I use any and every kind of shortcut I can find in the kitchen! I have 3 kids and every quick tip I can use is great!
Hey, Looked up the cookbook on Amazon. Looks amazing & I would love to win a copy, but if that doesn't work out I'll be ordering one. Love shortcuts for delicious dishes.

I can't get enough of your recipes!! They are awesome! I would love to win the cookbook but if I don't, I will still look for all your wonderful recipes. Your banner says it all — You are truly a Country Cook.
This would be a great book for me to use after a hard day at work.
I would love to win t his book as being a busy wife, mother and grandmother plus work with children all day I think this would be a great asset for me
I always get all my ingredients together, measure out my flours,sugars etc. Always clean up dishes before moving on to next thing to bake.Winning this book would be a great addition and help…[email protected]
I purchase frozen red, yellow, and green peppers. So convenient and cost effective too! Love Gooseberry!
I have made the Cream Cheese Danish recipe but used beaten egg whites to top the crust. It makes it a pretty golden color. I drizzle it with a powdered sugar glaze after it cools. Yummy! Love the cookbook! ([email protected])
I'm big fans of both the Country Cook and Gooseberry Patch!! Would love to have a copy, thanks for the chance to win one!!
We love chicken pot pie, but often the process of making the pie crust and rolling it out is a pain…my short cut in smooshing out canned biscuits in a giant muffin pan, adding the pot pie, then topping with a smaller, rolled piece of canned biscuit. They bake fast, taste great and everyone gets their own cute serving.
Wow. I mean, just WOW! This looks and sounds incredible! I want to make this immediately when I get home. Eat a piece then immediately remove it from my site so I don't eat the whole thing. Looks divine!
I could sure use this book bc as a mom w/ 3 kids, I need all the shortcuts I can get in the kitchen!!
My favorite shortcut–canned biscuits fried and frosted–instant doughnuts!!

Hello. I love to bake and would really enjoy using this cookbook.
cindy.aldrid[email protected]
Just starting to cook and bake and really enjoy it! So this cookbook would be a great help in my kitchen!
As a stay at home mom of 2 that homeschools, and help manage my husbands buisness and takes care of the house. Any short cuts in the kitchen would be a great help. I love to have hot meal ready every night when my husband gets home from work and like to add a variety so we arent eating the same thing all the time. Occassionally I enjoy throwing a dessert into the mix also.
Any short cuts and new reciepes are a great help in my kitchen!!

One of my favorite shortcuts is to use an immersion blender whenever possible when a recipe calls for using a blender or food processor… so much easier and less to clean up afterwards!

Yes it does look yummy! Not sure if I am entering the cookbook giveaway, but my little tip is I buy the large can of Chilpotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce, which I use in many dishes. I never use the whole can small or large, so I freeze the left over and cut off what I need for the next recipe that I cook. It goes a long way and no wast at all… Sonya Wilson sonyavwilsonbellsouth.net on
When I make meatballs I make a ton. I use my ice cream scoop & the George Forman grill. They cook in half the time & the excess fat runs off. Pop them into the sauce in the crock pot & simmer. Have a meal that night & freeze the rest of them in my food saver bags. When you need a fast meal all you have to do is cook some pasta & make a salad. You might think they get all squished but they don't, just don't press down on the lid of the grill.
One of my shortcuts is that I use the refrigerated crescent rolls to make "Pigs in a Blanket"
Oh, yes I can definitely use some shortcuts in the kitchen. thanks for the giveaway

Hi Brandie. I would love to win this cookbook. My only shortcut in the kitchen is when I make dinner like Baked Penne and I make enough to have that night and then I make extra so I can freeze one in a 9×9 Pyrex dish. It is so nice having that extra one in the freezer ready to go. Just thaw, heat and eat!

Oh my – that recipe looks amazing. Two of my favorite desserts combined! I'd love to win just for more recipes like this one.
I just found your blog, not good to be drooling over these so early in the morning. Love all of your recipes, pinning away 🙂

Would just love a book of shortcuts! Some people are so creative, me, not so much!
In order to have long cooking things on hand in a hurry, I cook beans and whole grains in large batches and then freeze small portions. Then they are ready to go at a moment's notice!
I love your blog! So much goodness!
I could use the cookbook because I am always looking for time saving recipes especially on weeknights.
Thanks for the chance to win!

My crockpot is my best kitchen shortcut. I love having dinner taken care of early in the day & then smelling the great aroma coming from the kitchen when I walk in the door in the evening.
Sorry, forgot to leave my email info.
It's proudyaya04 {at} yahoo {dot} com
I don't really have any short cuts so I could really use a book like this. I guess the only one I do have is to freeeze my meat in portion sizes so that way and I grab and start cooking!

Hello!!!What a wonderful cookbook and how wonderful of you to do this giveaway. One of my fave shortcuts is to use "Cream of ______ soups (such as chicken, asparagus etc as a base for gravy. Works every time! Iwould absolutely LOVE to win this book because although i love to cook and love being in the kitchen, most of the time i am in 'rush' mode. This book would save my life most days of the week!! Thank you, arlene Marie email: [email protected]
Oh, i also wanted to say, there are SO MANY MANY MANY recipes on ths site that i really want, er need. Do you have a cookbook? If not i'm going to have to go one by one, oh well, it will be well worth it!!! Thank you for your site and for sharing and forthe GBP giveaway. arlene Marie email: [email protected]

I would love to win the cookbook. I need all the help in the kitchen that I can get! 🙂

I would love to win the cookbook. I enjoying cooking but with a full time job it's not always an option. The greatest shortcut that I can think of this morning is buy hamburger in large packages and then go ahead brown the entire amount and freeze in amount needed for certain recipes. Cuts cooking time.

This is a shortcut I have just started doing recently. I buy onions and green pepper when they are on sale, chop them up and put them in freezer bags. Usually 1 cup per bag. Freeze and take out whenever a recipe calls for it.

Hello there!
One of my favorite kitchen shortcuts is to use canned "butter tasting" biscuits as my dumplings in my Chicken n Dumplings! I just tear them into little chunks and toss 'em in! It really adds an amazing lil burst of flavor, and I always get told.. "Wow. These dumplings are amazing"!! HaHa! I haven't revealed my secret until NOW!! Another helpful hint I do is chop up my onions and green peppers and put them in ice cube trays, and add just a lil water, and freeze! That way, you can pop out just as much as you need and not waste any. I have my country mama to thank for my dumpling secret, and as a new country mama myself (I have a 15 month old lil redheaded boy)I look forward to learning new and exciting shortcuts! Thanks so much for your blog! I really enjoy it.
Heather, [email protected]
I could really use this recipe book!

Short cuts are great and any that help get me out of the kitchen are the best! I like to cook but not spend a lot of time doing it. My shortcut is to buy a bag of chicken breasts, cook them all at one time and then either shred, chop or make into strips, Put each in a baggie, label and freeze. I am ready for what ever trips my fancy…Thanks for the chance to win a cool cookbook!
As a new mom, 3 months old, and a caretaker of disabled parent I'm always prepping on the weekends when the hubby is home to help. I then during the week it's easy to throw together a homemade meal! [email protected]
The only short cut I know is if you want to bring eggs to room temperate fast just put them in some hot tap water and wait 10 minutes. Sherry Baird [email protected]
Hi! I could use this cookbook because I need a few shortcuts in the kitchen. About the only shortcut I can think of is, I used frozen stir-fry vegetables last night in the wok instead of cutting up fresh vegetables.
[email protected]
One of my favorite shortcuts is to make a lot of meat (usually in the crockpot) and freeze half for another meal, there's less waste that way and less to do for another meal.

I could really use this recipe book! I'm a brand new innkeeper for a Bed & Breakfast and I'm trying to come up with some quick, easy and delicious recipes for our guests. This recipe book would be highly used, I promise!

Thanks for the opportunity! I guess one of my shortcuts would be to use my pressure cooker after church on Sunday. Meat is cooked in no time! Here's my email [email protected]
I am a HUGE Gooseberry Patch Cookbook fan and love their cookbooks! One of my favorite and most used tips in the kitchen is when I'm chopping onion….if it makes me teary, I pop it in the freezer for about 5 min and when I get it out to cut there are no more tears!!! 🙂 Thanks for this opportunity!
[email protected]
I'm really looking forward to trying this recipe. I need a book of shortcuts.

I like Shortcuts,makes cooking easier and simple way to cook.
I could use some shortcuts in the kitchen. We homeschooling here with two boys. We are trying to eliminate processed foods and do home cooked food from scratch…but it takes time. We ate loving it but sure would like a short cut here and there.
I am always looking for easier ways to do things in the kitchen, this book would be awesome.
I would love to win this cookbook to add to my gpb collection!

Hi! Love your blog and recipes….always makes me hungry. =) As a stay at home mom of 3 currently dealing with the pain from hardware inside my chest to correct my chest wall ( have to have it in a yr ) this cook book sure would help me make things easier at night…and give the older kids an opportunity to pitch in…my almost 11 yr old daughter LOVES to cook for the family…If I won it , I would give it to her so we could share.
Thank you for taking your time to offer step by step instructions and especially with pictures! Your site is well put together and simple to navigate and use.
Just found your blog, recipe book looks great, I love shortcuts…one shortcut I use is if a dessert has a layer of melted chocolate chips on top, like peanut butter rice krispies, I put the chips on top and put in a warm oven just until they melt enough to spread, saves a messy choc. bowl to wash. The cookbook sounds great! [email protected]
Never been great at short cuts- I do cook a lot though. A chance at winning this cookbook would be a great addition to my kitchen. My son who is in band would love it if his mom had the know how on quicker cooking. [email protected]
I could really use this!! As the mother of two very busy teenagers, I am always looking for yummy recipes that are quick on time but not on flavor! A quick tip….I buy a large package of chicken breast, cook them in oven, let cool and freeze. Then when I'm in a hurry I can use them for a quick chicken pot pie, stir fry, or casserole!! [email protected]
Sofa pillows! {giggles} You crack me up! 🙂 I do not own a Gooseberry Patch Cookbook. {gasp!} I know, shocking right!? Esecially for someone who has A LOT of cookbooks and a terrible new recipe addiction. I think it's quite a shame I don't own a GBP Cookbook, and would LOVE to change that.
I love your quick recipes and I could always use a cook book full of them.
Being a working mother, shortcuts are BIG blessings! Whether it is for the school snack workshop or church or just a nice gift for someone they save the day. These recipes are great! Thank You for your site!!
Oh boy! A cookbook like this would rock. Would save me time in the kitchen and give me more time for hubby after we've both had long days at the office. Love your blog!

I cook a whole pot of beans in my crock pot at once and then store them until needed. That way I don't have to mess with cooking small amounts of dried beans throughout the week.
I'm not a very good cook, so I need all the help I can get!!!! Pick me! Thanks! [email protected]
I love Gooseberry Patch cookbooks and know this one would be wonderful!

my daughter, hubby, and new baby are getting a place of their own. she can bake but cooking is still a little challenging for her. i think this book and it's shortcuts would be AWESOME for her!! hope i could win it for her!!
My go to shortcut is buying a rotisserie chicken from costco and use it to make chicken divan, enchiladas or chicken salad. Easy and great flavor! Enjoy your site and would luv to add this book to my collection!
[email protected]
If I don't have a short cut, its not happening in my kitchen unfortunately! When you have 2 teenage boys that eat all the time, I need quick!
When I need to chop or slice an onion, I put it in a container of ice water or put it in the freezer for about 10 to 15 minutes before I slice/chop it. This saves the tears. Please enter me into the cookbook giveaway.

This is my favorite shortcut. I love my homemade gravy, but if I'm short on time (or just not in the mood), I bust out the trusty can of cream of mushroom and an onion soup packet. Mix together with some of the juices from the meat or with some broth and done!

Can't wait to try the Sopapilla Cheesecake recipe. I just love cheese danish and this looks like it may be very similar and much easier! Came by your blog via facebook. I will be spending more time here!
It's a shame that the comments for the Sofa Pillow Cheesecake have been hijacked by the Cookbook Contest. But, I'm going to leave a review anyways…
I've just made these and they're amazing! The house smells like cinnamon toast from when I was a kid. Each person who tried it rolled their eyes in delight. I was forbidden to ever make them again because they are THAT GOOD (but not very good for you). I used brown sugar in the filling and mixed my cinnamon & sugar together before sprinkling it on top (didn't read the recipe well). I need to figure out how I can do this in single serving sizes. Maybe use a large biscuit cutter.
Did I mention that this was AMAZING? *sigh* I'll never be the same…

I could use a cookbook like this…I'm enjoying your blog.
I could really use some shortcuts on nights like today when I haven't anything planned and supper time is fast approaching.
Oh, I would just love to win this cookbook. I grew up with these recipes and ended up marrying a city slicker who never appreciated my cooking…so I learned to cook differently for him. After putting up with 30 years of abuse from this alcholic, I finally got up enough nerve to leave him. I am divorced, retired and live alone now and struggling with ill health and living on social security, but never been happier in my life, now that I'm a Great-grandmother and can do as I please. I am enjoying cooking my childhood favorites. Thank you for the chance to win this amazing cookbook. [email protected]
This Short Cut book looks great. One of my favorite shortcut "meal-in-minutes" is to prepare a box of macaroni and chesse (always a crowd pleaser) and customize it with any leftover meats & veggies. You can make it Mexican style by adding leftover taco meat and salsa or chopped tomatoes and jalepenos. For Lent, you can add any canned fish and vegetable like muhrooms and peas or broccoli.

I love using canned biscuits. Put in muffin tins flattened in the cups, you can fill them with just about anything and cover them with grated cheese. We like them with BBQ ground beef and cheese. [email protected] [email protected]
Great giveaway, thanks so much!!!! My fav shortcut is using flour tortillas to create savory pie dishes. I layer up tons of fresh ingredients with whatever meat I have on hand & use the tortillaa to separate the layers, kind of like a lasagna & before you know it, you have an entire meal!
I love Gooseberry Patch. This looks like a wonderful cookbook. Could use some simple recipes. Thanks! 🙂 Teri
I'm a new step mother to 3 growing boys ages 13, 12 and 10. I could use a new cookbook full of shortcuts! I feel helpless in the kitchen now.

I like chopping onions, celery and bell peppers and portioning them in baggies to put in the freezer. I love your recipes and have made several of them.
Can i substitute the sugar for like splenda? I love the cheesecake bars but i have to watch my sugar intake.
You should be able to substitute Splenda in this. I don't see why not…
I'm loving your recipes, but I just wanted to clear something up. A sopapilla is not what you describes. We eat sopapillas like bread with our meals. It is simply fried dough that puffs up. We also stuff them with beans, meat, cheese and smother them with red or green chili and more cheese. We do eat them after a meal sometimes with honey. Just giving you a little lesson in our food here in New Mexico.
I love your recipes! And I would love a cookbook,but Im way at the bottom here!You might not see me! Im Marie [email protected]
I LOVE your blog and all the recipes you share with all of us 🙂 I really NEED all the shortcuts I can get! Between work and my commute I get home at the time most people are washing up AFTER dinner! Needless to say I'm exhausted but still hungry! I try to cook "ahead" and plan out meals but even that takes time (and weekends are so precious with little time for everything that MUST get done before Monday rolls around again too quickly it seems). Again thanks for all you do – incl these great little giveaways (keeping my fingers crossed 🙂
Hi Brandi,
I have to tell you that you have gotten me hooked on gooseberry patch books! Ever since you posted about the new harvest cookbook that they put out, I've been requesting them like crazy from our inter-library loan system (the system requests books from other libraries in the state). The local librarians kept looking at the books that would come in for me and started requesting them for themselves. Then, they decided to do a fundraiser for the local library by selling gooseberry patch cookbooks! I just wanted to let you know the effect one of your posts had on our neighborhood! Lol! Keep posting your great recipes and know that there are A LOT of people out here who appreciate you and all that you do! 🙂

I make these all the time, and bring them to every potluck! This recipe is a keeper in my home [email protected]
This has got to be one of my favorite "go to" desserts! Everyone absolutely Ooooh's and Ahhh's over it every time I whip one up! I actually made one yesterday and added a can of cherry pie filling on top of the cream cheese layer. It was sooo yummy! I omitted the cinnamon for the cherry, but I have also used apple pie filling, and I leave the cinnamon for it. Both are a yummy twist to this already decadent dessert! Try 'em out if you haven't already!
I so love your recipes for making dishes so easy to make, and I love a new cookbook.
I love to use Zipper storage bags to combine ingredients together. When I make apple pies or chex mix or thins like that it makes it so much easier to mix all the things together and the clean up is a breeze, I either throw it away or wash it out and use it again. When I make Chex mix I can use it 3 or 4 times in a row before the bag has to be thrown away. I love your sight I get so many new ideas for homemade food that I am always impressing my neighbors with my new dinners and desserts, until I share the recipe with them and then they see how easy it was.
Anything to help save time in the kitchen is a God send to busy moms today. I love recipes that add to any shortcuts I might already have in my file. I love using pre-made pie shells to make quiche for my family or the tubes of herbs that are in the vegetable aisle now. One thing nice about Gooseberry Patch cookbooks are they use common items found on the pantry or refrigerator shelves.
I would love to win this book just because it's nice to just enjoy the simple things <3 <3
I would love that cookbook! There are so many of your recipes that I would love to try off of here as well! I made your sopapilla cheesecake today and blogged about it on my blog I started a couple weeks ago! I gave you credit of course 🙂
I have been making this for a few years. My kids favorite dessert. Sometimes I add a can of caramel apple pie filling on top of the cheesecake mixture. They love it that way.
I was wondering how well you think this would freeze? I know it’s a silly question. I am the only one that likes the sopapilla. It pretty large for one person. If it freezes well it would easy to enjoy several different times just making it once.
Everything I see looks great. Thanks for the recipe!
Will try this for sure! Looks yummy!
How would you adjust the baking time, if you cut the recipe in half and make in a 8 by 8 inch pan?
