I just had to repost this amazing apple crock pot recipe Kat left in my last comments...

4 lg Granny Smiths : 1/2 C Apple Juice or Cider : 8 TBS Brown Sugar : 12 Red Hots : 4 TBS Margarine or Butter : 1/4 tsp ground Cinnamon : 8 Caramels : Core apples. Put in crock pot; pour juice over apples. Fill center of each apple with 2 TBS brown sugar, 3 red hots, 1 TBS butter and 2 caramels. Sprinkle with cinnamon. Cover and cook on low 4-6 hours til tender. Serve with whipped cream.

Crock pots! I love the idea of crock pots! Throw a bunch of ingredients into a pot in the morning, and come home from work to a hot yummy dinner. For some reason I had never thought about desserts before. Check out these mouthwatering crock pot desserts like bananas foster, fudgey brownies and bread pudding. Remember how last summer I was grilling everything in sight? This winter, everything is going in the crock pot!

I wish they had cooler looking crock pots. There are three standard designs, stainless steel, white and white with brightly colored vegetables merrily dancing around the outside. The only variants I have found are the Target Michael Graves and a bright red Nesco. Although I love the Michael Graves designs, it seems anything I have bought of his with moving parts have gone kapooey. Do they make Hello Kitty crock pots?
