Recipe: Two-Ingredient Blueberry Bars

Posted on by

Back in February I tried Two-Ingredient Lemon bars that I found on Practically Living. I made them for our cub scout Blue & Gold dinner. Luckily I had tried one before I took them because they were gone in a flash and multiple people asked for the recipe. A wonderful “spongy” lemon flavor. No crust like a traditional lemon bar, but super simple and tasty.

I wondered if this two-ingredient recipe would work with other pie fillings, so I decided to try it for Easter.

Two-ingredient Blueberry Bars:

  • 1 Can Blueberry Pie Filling
  • 1 boxed Angel Food Cake mix
  • Optional: sprinkling of powdered sugar

Spread into a 9×13 pan sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until not jiggly in the middle.





The verdict: pretty tasty! They puff up a Lot in the pan so be careful, but they fall when cooling. If you want to do the powdered sugar sprinkle it when serving otherwise it “melts” into the bar when you cover them.

Simple Easter Egg Garland

Posted on by


We seem to have an excess of plastic Easter eggs at our house. So I decided to try making a garland out of them. I had the pompoms from another project and they were purchased at the DollarTree. It is all strung on ribbon. Super simple, super cheap!
You need a long needle with a decent sized eye (so you can easily thread the ribbon through it). I started with a pompom:

Then an egg. All of my eggs had 2 holes in each end making it easy to put the needle through:

If you have a cat I recommend doing this craft out of their reach!

It took me about 10 minutes to complete and now we have some Easter decor up!
