It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Sweet sugar cookie balls mixed with cocoa powder, espresso, and pecans.

1 roll (18 ounce size) refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Crumble the cookie dough into a large bowl. Stir in the cocoa powder, espresso powder, and pecans. Mix well, kneading the ingredients together.
Form balls of dough about the size of a walnut. Place on baking sheets about 2 inches apart and bake at 375 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until set.
Remove from the baking sheets immediately and let cool for 5 minutes on a wire rack.
Roll the cookies in the powdered sugar and then let cool for 15 minutes. When completely cool, re-roll the cookies in more powdered sugar.
Store the cookies in a tightly covered container.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
