Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 30 minutes

Yield 18 penguins

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

18 jumbo black olives, pitted
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
18 small black olives
1 carrot

Steps:

Cut a slit from top to bottom, lengthwise, into the side of each jumbo olive. Carefully insert about 1 teaspoon of cream cheese into each olive. Slice the carrot into eighteen 1/4 inch thick rounds; cut a small notch out of each carrot slice to form feet. Save the cut out piece and press into center of small olive to form the beak. If necessary cut a small slit into each olive before inserting the beak.
Set a big olive, large hole side down, onto a carrot slice. Then, set a small olive onto the large olive, adjusting so that the beak, cream cheese chest and notch in the carrot slice line up. Secure with a toothpick.

BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE CRUMB CAKE | JUST A PINCH RECIPES

Blueberry Cream Cheese Crumb Cake | Just A Pinch Recipes image

Yum! This blueberry crumb cake is delightful. The cake is dense and slightly sweet. You get a great surprise when you bite in and taste the cream cheese and blueberries in the middle. The crumb topping adds a little crunch. This will be great for breakfast, brunch, or even dessert if you don't like overly sweet desserts.

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours

Number Of Ingredients 20

Ingredients

FOR THE FILLING
2 - 8 - ounce blocks of regular cream cheese
1/2 cup(s) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
FOR THE CAKE:
3 cup(s) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon(s) baking powder
1/2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1/2 cup(s) (1 stick) softened unsalted butter
1 cup(s) granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
1 cup(s) sour cream
1 pint(s) fresh blueberries
FOR THE CRUMB TOPPING:
3 tablespoon(s) cold butter
1/4 cup(s) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup(s) granulated sugar

Steps:

Grease a 9 x 13 pan and pre-heat oven to 350. For the filling, beat together cream cheese and sugar.
Once creamed, add vanilla and egg. Set aside.
For the cake, in another bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla.
Add the flour mixture alternately with the sour cream into the wet batter until well blended.
Pour half the batter into a well-greased 9x13 pan.
Spread the cream cheese filling over the batter.
Place about a pint of blueberries, I use a little more, over the cream cheese mixture. Cover the cream cheese layer with remaining batter.
For the crumb topping, using a pastry blender combine cold butter, flour and sugar until the mixture looks like small peas.
Sprinkle the crumb topping over the top of the cake. Bake in a 350 oven for 55- 60 minutes. Test in center with toothpick. DO NOT LET THE TOP GET BROWN! It will be overbaked and dry!
Let cool, cut and enjoy!!

Combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon, adobo, and black pepper in the bowl of an electric mixer. Mix it until totally combined (if you have a few lumps from the cream cheese, no problem; you won't see them later!)Add the cheddar and Monterey jack and mix gently until combined. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the bowl and make sure all the ingredients are mixed together. Stir in the pimentos and dill. Taste and mix in more of whatever you think it needs. Add more cheese if you like the pimento cheese to be less creamy; add less if you like it to be more creamy.Refrigerate pimento cheese for at least 2 hours before serving. Serve with crackers, small hollowed-out peppers, carrot and celery sticks, and olives. (Or make small sandwiches or even a grilled cheese with it!)***Note: For best results, make sure the cheddar and jack cheeses are nice and cold when you mix them in.
