Favorite Recipe of a Sloppy Chef

I swear I am the worlds messiest cook. Tonight as I was making stuff for tomorrow's breakfast and Easter dinner I looked around and thought "Oh my gosh! What a mess!" I was making my mom's 'famous' "pink fluff" and was spraying the jello mix all over my shirt, the wall and the counter with the hand mixer. My pink shirt was covered in red drops. The muffins for breakfast were in the oven, overflowing and spilling all into the bottom of the stove, blowing smoke everywhere. The house sure didn't smell as good as it should have when making cinnamon struessel muffins. Remember walking into your moms or grandma's house and thinking that they must have fresh chocolate chip cookies because the smell was so amazing?? Not my house!! People walk in here, smell burning food and know I'm cooking. Funny part is that most of the time, the food itself doesn't even burn, it's just the overflow or the stuff that falls into the bottom of the oven.

The baking for tomorrow is now done and the sink is piled with all the dishes that still need to be cleaned. I use so many dishes when I'm cooking and baking that the dishwasher couldn't hold them all! So, what was the recipe that is so worth all the mess, the spraying jello and the food color stained arms that look like I've cut myself and am bleeding all over the place? PINK FLUFF!!!! My kids ask for this at every holiday or special meal!

PINK FLUFF
large box of jello
2 cups hot water
2 cups sherbet (flavor of choice)
12oz Cool Whip, thawed

Mix the jello and water. Once thoroughly stirred, add in the entire container of sherbet. As it melts, just scoop out the chunks that don't mix in. It's the easiest way!! Add the coolwhip and mix with a mixer until well mixed. Pour into a bowl and refrigerate overnight.

Our Favorite is PINK....raspberry jello with raspberry sherbet. At Christmas we will also do a GREEN....lime jello and lime sherbet. For 4th of July PEACH....peach jello and peach sherbet.

So what is your favorite recipe...messy or not, doesn't matter. ;)
