Rutter Kitchen-Breakfast Sausages with Dipping Sauce, Smoothies and S'mores Cupcakes






We decided to do a breakfast for dinner meal on our cooking night.  After reading over the sausage recipe I wasn't sure whether I should get uncooked or cooked sausage links, so I got the cooked links and they worked just fine.  Ashley made these and she followed the recipe and for the cheese she used sharp cheddar as we like that.  She made it look pretty easy ;)  Dana made the Maple-Dijon Dipping Sauce and that was very simple.  She did follow the recipe for that also.  I decided to go with a different concoction for the smoothies as not everyone in our family likes mango and coconut flavors.  We had two blenders out and the guys had frozen berries, milk and vanilla ice cream smoothies.  They said they were pretty good, but would have liked them a little sweeter.  We also had frozen berries and milk and they were good.  Dana mixed up some that had frozen berries, milk, peanut butter and cocoa powder.  All interesting flavors ;) Next time we will probably add some form of sweetener.  To round out the meal we had fried or scrambled eggs.  We thought that the sausages tasted good and only a couple liked the dipping sauce. We also made the S'more cupcakes as we hadn't done them with an earlier recipe pick.  I cooked the cupcakes earlier in the day so that they could cool.  Ashley whipped up the Marshmallow Frosting and we assembled them after dinner and ate them.  Very good!  Nice flavors and textures.  They would be ones that I would make again.  They are right about the batter being runny, so if you haven't made them yet don't be alarmed!  We enjoyed cooking all the recipes and hope you have a chance to try them also :)
