Super easy and quick to make. This is something I whip up on the fly when company shows up at the door without warning. You'll love these little treats, and so will your guests!
Have you ever had one of those days where you are super de duper busy and being pulled in every direction? I know you have. We all have. Am I right?
You finally get home after a busy day and just as you go to slip on your jammies just  in time for your favourite TV show (Supernatural- can you say Winchester boys rock my world) the doorbell rings.
You are now doing a check in your head!!
Did I clean today?
Did I do laundry today or is it piled up by the front door for some unknown reason?
Then the OMGÂ do I have anything to feed people moment hits!!
Well folks this is a surefire way to please those unannounced naughty guests who should have called but did not. I mean seriously, who stops in on a weeknight when your favourite show is on anyway.
Have a plan of action in place for emergencies like this. You need to be prepared. Keep your pantry stocked with quick ingredients like graham crumbs, puddings, cookies, and things like that.
Set a code word set with hubby for moments like this. Try *winchester sandwich* as he'll never know what you mean anyway, then that will be his cue to take the rude visitors on a tour of some project you did 3 years ago and never finished.
You now have 5 minutes. This is what you make. And honestly, it seriously takes only 5 minutes.
You're welcome!Â

Notes
Now drop lots of hints about how tired you are before Supernatural starts. Or tell them you are coming down with the flu, that always works.

My first though in such a situation is I hope my 7 year old didn't leave her dirty underwear on the bathroom floor again, and please God let her have flushed the toilet!

Oh man, my mouth is watering. That just sounds so good right now! But it's bedtime. Will make this soon!

Thank you so much!

I am so happy you like it Reem. I have so many of these super quick ones. My kids used to play every sport known to man and be involved in every school function so I had to learn how to do quick stuff. My arsenal is filled with stuff like this one. Busy moms need fast. Lol. Thanks so much for coming by my friend.
Kim Bee
Roflmao, I honestly cannot stop laughing. One of our first thoughts is where are the cats laying that they aren't suppose to be and did someone put the dog out so she doesn't get excited and pee all over our guests feet. Then it's on to baking magic.
Kim Bee
I hope you get a chance to try it out. So good.

"I love theses!" I actually have mason jars of both sizes! I use them as tea drinking cups w/flavored honey sticks,peach tea, cupcakes n a jar, layered desserts, and one of my best & favs is: Hot Choc & marshmellows! They can be prepared in advance then just add hot water or milk when ready to serve! I'd love to see your spin on that. Let me know if u use it! I add mint &/or cookie garnishes, cherries,whipped cream as well.

It seems you have a knack of whipping fabulous things up in a jar (remembering your fruit salad with labels)! This sounds great and has so much more interest IN a jar! I feel a business idea coming on for you. 'Kim Bee on QVC'!
