Kristin Muntz Webboard User Reg: 05-09-2012 Posts: 746 Loc: Offline	For the heck of it, I'll share my christmas goodies list: Easy: http://www.eaglebrand.com/recipes/details/?RecipeId=4018 http://www.carnationmilk.ca/recipe-details.aspx?rid=938 More work: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/lemon-bars- recipe/index.html http://lecremedelacrumb.com/2013/10/chocolate-caramel-shortbread-bars.html <-- this is the closest I can find to the recipe I grew up with, we used semi-sweet, no messing around with the chocolate topping. There's also a double boiler recipe for peanut butter and chocolate fudge that I wouldn't even try to find a replacement for online. And chocolate covered PB balls. and of course, soft ginger cookies, I don't dare try to recreate my Gram's amazing gingersnaps (which she made with.. bacon grease. and put tiny decorative stamps in) not yet anyways. Should have done it when she was still here. Now I'm REALLY hungry. My apologies to the diabetics among us.

All fermented foods are, but sauerkraut beats almost everything else. It's not appropriate for most dogs, BTW, but it's a GREAT food for humans. And I like it much better than yogurt. If you can't get homemade, look in the refrigerated section of your natural foods store.

IMHO, it makes the best fudge of all, and there's no "soft ball stage" or even thermometer! I've been making it for decades! My recipe uses marshmallow in a jar (called "Fluff" where I come from, and probably called "Kraft Marshmallow" elsewhere), and half good milk chocolate bars. (It needs a pinch of salt, too.) It's creamy, smooth, and pretty much wonderful. I don't make it for gifts. If I did, I'd be out early on Christmas morning trying find presents on gas station or 7-11 shelves to replace what I ate.

Although I'm a serious DARK chocolate fan, old-fashioned classic cooked fudge recipes (which use sugar, cocoa powder, milk, salt, butter, and vanilla) produce a fudge that's not as dark as chocolate chips.

I switched to pumpkin cheesecake a few years back, and now it's mandatory I use Paula Deen's recipe, and it's amazing. I'm baking 2 of them tonight for our Section Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow.

Connie Sutherland Moderator Reg: 07-13-2005 Posts: 31580 Loc: North-Central coast of California Offline	I TOTALLY agree with you about the Paula Deen pumpkin cheesecake! The only change I make is to leave out the ground cloves. I'm not fond of that astringent taste. But that's tiny ... all in all, that's the best pumpkin cheesecake recipe I know. It's just a classic. Maybe it's the sour cream ... not much of it, but it changes the result.

Made some tonite and it's not setting up so well ---- looked at the recipe. THREE cans..... ! http://s922.photobucket.com/albums/ad67/Grasvaly/
