Quickest French Onion Soup Recipe Quick French Onion Soup Recipe This is the quickest french onion soup. It’s ready in under 15 minutes but is as decadent and delicious as the original. Back when I was a kid I loved French Onion Soup. But if you’d told me that it was made mostly out of onions, I wouldn’t have believed you. I mean, I knew that “onion” was in the title but it didn’t taste oniony to me. Nowadays I understand how it’s possible that the kid-despised vegetable can lead to such beautiful flavors. Pin this quick and DELICIOUS recipe! This French Onion Soup is ready in under 15 minutes, like all of my SOUPin15 recipes. As with all of the SOUPin15 recipes, this one comes with a SouperTip for making soups delicious in a short amount of time. You won’t be able to taste the wine in the soup. And now, here’s my Quick French Onion Soup recipe: Ingredients: Directions: Cut the butter into small pieces and put it into a very large skillet over medium heat. Who loves cheese???

Death By Oreo Cupcakes They are probably the best Oreo cakes I have ever tried. A lot of cake's that I have experimented with before are like a vanilla cake with bits of Oreo in them, which didn't really give them enough Oreo flavor. But these were a lot better. I used a dark chocolate fudge cake mix instead of just a regular chocolate cake mix, which went really well with the cookies and gave the cakes just a little more flavor. Ingredients 1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size 1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional) 1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box) 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature 1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature 3 3/4 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract cupcake liners Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream together butter and cream cheese. foodsnots.com

And melt it down. Hello, lover. See?
