Pillsbury® Grands!® Mini Biscuits Review & Giveaway, CLOSED!

CONTEST CLOSED!


If you´re looking for homemade taste but don´t have the homemade time, then look no further than Pillsbury® Grands!® Mini Biscuits, the new freezer-to-oven biscuits that come warm, fluffy and fresh from your oven in just minutes.

Bring the mouthwatering aroma of fresh-baked biscuits to your kitchen when you serve up Pillsbury® Grands!® Mini Biscuits!

Each 70-calorie biscuit is a delight when served hot from the oven, with a warm fluffy center and golden, flaky crust. Pillsbury® Grands!® Mini Biscuits are the perfect size for kids, or for mini sandwiches and appetizers. There are countless recipe options, from miniature ham sandwiches come lunchtime, to delicious sliders for nighttime entertaining. There are so many ways to make these biscuits and your family will love trying each one.



I love using the new Pillsbury® Grands!® Mini Biscuits in recipes, both savory and sweet.

This recipe is a quick and easy Peach Cobbler that Liz and I have made before -- with a few minor, tastier adjustments!

Sweet & Spicy Peach Cobbler:

INGREDIENTS:


1 package Pillsbury® Grands!® Mini Biscuits
2 large cans sliced Peaches in Heavy Syrup (drain, reserving liquid)
1/2 cup frozen cranberries (thawed and drained)
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg


DIRECTIONS:

Drain liquid from Peaces and reserve for later. Place peaches and cranberries in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix sugars, cinnamon, and nutmeg. When mixed well, add to peaches / cranberries. Mix thoroughly to coat the fruit.

Place in a 9 X 9 casserole baking dish. Pour approx. 1/3 of the liquid from the peaches over the mixture.


TOPPING:

In a bowl, mix 1 cup of sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon together. Stir well. Dip each biscuit into the mixture and coat well. Place the biscuits on top of the peach mixture until the top is covered.
Bake at 375 Degrees until the biscuits are done.


Trust me -- it's yummy!

Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls: Review & Giveaway, CONTEST CLOSED!

CONTEST CLOSED!
Recently, I was blessed by the Pillsbury Company and My Blog Spark with the opportunity to try Pillsbury's new Orange Sweet Rolls.

Oh, the memories that come flooding back... I can remember early Sunday mornings, before Church, when Nan & Pop would put the Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls and Apple Turnovers in the oven. The smell of the rolls and fresh-brewed coffee would permeate the house... it was idyllic. Yep -- they let me drink coffee! I'm glad they did -- it's still my favourite drink!

I can close my eyes and see them at the kitchen table... good memories. It makes me smile. Okay, it also brings a tear to my eye.

I was so excited when I opened the package from Pillsbury. I found a coupon for a free can of the Orange Sweet Rolls and a lovely photo album.




I didn't waste anytime getting to the store. I HAD to get those Orange Sweet Rolls!

I did save them for Sunday morning, just as Nan & Pop did! I wasn't disappointed, either.

With today's hectic schedules, leisurely mornings and breakfast with the family are difficult to come by. Luckily, Sundays present the perfect opportunity to reconnect and share a delicious breakfast together.

To start the week off right, take time out to create a sweet Sunday morning moment with your family with Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls.

Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls are warm, fresh, and ready to serve in just minutes. With an ooey-gooey texture and a delicious orange icing, Orange Sweet Rolls have a mouth watering aroma that is sure to bring your family together like no other breakfast! Packed with the love and flavor of a treat made from scratch, but without the time and cleanup, Orange Sweet Rolls are the perfect addition to your family's Sunday morning traditions.


The Pillsbury Company has a winner! These rolls came out of the oven so soft and creamy and the fragrance of orange lingered in the air.

They are... so, so good. The frosting was sweet and buttery and the taste had just enough orange to complement the roll but didn't over-power it. Perfection!

Now, Pillsbury and My Blog Spark would like to offer one lucky Gathering My Roses reader a chance to win their very own prize pack consisting of a VIP coupon for Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls as well as a photo album to help keep your family's sweet Sunday morning memories close at hand!
