Friends, family, strangers - welcome to my blog! My name is Trina, and I cook and bake as a hobby. I'd like to keep track of my recipes, as well as share them with my friends and family.


Cooking and baking your own food is so much healthier than buying pre-made meals at the store, and even restaurants can be a bit shifty sometimes. When you cook your own food, you know exactly what is going into your meal, and you can make it as healthy, fat-free, and flavourful as you want. Or as fatty and hearty as you want. Admittedly, most of my recipes (so far) are on the fatty, hearty, chock-full-of-meat side, but I assure you there's some of my famous vegan baking (indiscernable from baking with dairy and eggs) recipes in here!

Easy Peanut Butter Balls

This recipe is from my friend Teresa: "Here's one for your blog, love it and it's so easy ... can't remember where we got the recipe from, but my mom and I have been making them for years!"

1 can sweetened condensed milk
2/3 c. peanut butter
2 c. graham wafer crumbs
1 c. chocolate chips
1 c. flaked coconut

Mix condensed milk and peanut butter. Stir in chocolate chips and graham wafer crumbs and mix well. Shape into one inch balls, roll in coconut flakes, and store in the fridge. Remove from fridge 15 minutes before serving.

  1. I recall a vaguely similar recipe we had to execute in home ec class, circa 1974. I think we used crushed corn flakes instead of graham crackers (though I can't be sure), and I don't recall the chocoate chips. It was one of the first things we made in cooking class as we hadn't yet earned our stripes to be operating a stove! Hmmm, now that I think of it, there may have been marshmallows involved as well....
