Frozen Cool Whip Dessert

2 large containers Cool Whip

2 Crispy Crunch Bars
1 package (400 g) ginger snaps (some people use Chocolate Chip cookies)
1 cup (approx.) Bailey’s Irish Cream, Kaluha or Tia Maria (for a non-alcoholic version, you can use milk)

Dip cookies one at a time in Irish Cream. Do not let them soak too long, just dip once and remove. Line the bottom of a springform pan with cookies. You may have to break some up to fill all the gaps. Cover cookies with one container of Cool Whip (slightly thawed to make spreading easier), Crush Crispy Crunch bars and sprinkle half of the crumbs over the top. Repeat process again for the second layer.

Cover and keep in freezer until ready to serve.

4 green onions, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 red pepper, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
2 cups Bean Sprouts (you can use the can)
Vermicilli or Chinese noodles

Heat oil. Saute veggies, adding garlic when other veggies are tender. Add bean sprouts last. Heat through. Meanwhile, boil water and cook vermicilli noodles according to directions on pkg. DO NOT OVERCOOK! Drain water and toss noodles with veggies. Add Soya Sauce, and spices like: onion powder, pepper, little ginger.

** I also slivered some pork and cooked with the veggies. I marinated the pork first, in worchestershire sauce, soya sauce, garlic, onion powder, steak spice, pepper. **

1 tin mushrooms, chopped
1 tsp. Celery salt
alt / pepper to taste
a few shakes of Worcestershire sauce

a few shakes of soya sauce ( I used lite)

Brown meat, and then add remaining ingredients until all is cook through. I used 2 packages of egg rolls wrappers bought from the store. I put a little more then a tablespoon on each wrapper, rolled them, and sealed them with egg wash. I deep-fried in the wok until golden brown. (These freeze well. If cooking from frozen back on cookie sheet and bake at 350 degree oven for 10 minutes, flip and cook for another 5 minutes).

3 Tbsp Black Pepper
1 Tbsp Cayenne Pepper
