Nancy:
Tell everyone Thanks for resending the Snowman Soup recipe. Merry
Christmas to all.
Thanks and have an Awesome day! Darlene
This is in reply to Myron Drinkwater's comment in the
12/13 newsletter about having more appetizer recipes if anyone would like to
have them.
Go for it Myron! We love ANYTHING you submit to this newsletter. I copy almost
anything you submit. I am also a fan of Tona in Alabama and copy almost all of
her recipes. I copy way too many recipes, I will never be able to try all of
them. I don't mean to imply that I don't copy anybody else's recipes, because I
do.
However, I don't make hard copies of all of them until I am ready to prepare the
recipe. I have a horrendous file entitled "Recipes" all broken down to different
sub-categories.
Anyway, Go Myron Go! Sunshine in South Texas
Must tell my experience with the Blasted Chicken
recipe. I made it a couple weeks ago and what a mess. I had just gotten a new
oven and after baking the chicken, my husband and I together had to spend an
hour each getting it clean. It splattered all over and smoked us out of the
house. Thank goodness Oregon's weather isn't that cold as we had every window in
the house open for at least 30 minutes. If it is any consolation, it tasted OK,
but I will never do it again. Has this recipe worked for others? Linda in OR
Karen, IL was looking for the Brown Sugar Fudge
recipe in the Dec. 12 newsletter. Thanks for reminding me Karen, I want to make
it too.
Brown Sugar Fudge
3 cups brown sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts
3 tablespoons butter
In medium saucepan combine brown sugar with evaporated milk and corn syrup,
bring to boil. Stir constantly. Continue boiling, stir frequently until soft
ball stage or 234 to 238 degrees is reached on candy thermometer.
Remove from heat, add butter and vanilla, do not stir. Let cool 25 minutes.
Beat with wooden spoon until fudge begins to thicken. Add nuts and beat a few
more minutes until fudge begins to lose its gloss but is not too thick.

This is for LuAnn in IA. I purchased one of those Back to Basics toasters and we
just loved it. However a few weeks into use, the Teflon coating on the egg tray
peeled off. Well of course I stopped using it. I kept meaning to email the
company, but time slipped by until this week I decided I needed to get a
replacement cup or throw away the whole thing and get a new toaster. Well I
emailed the company and told them I thought it was a defect of the toaster and
not my care that caused the problem. Never expecting an answer, imagine my
surprise when I got an email the following day from them stating that if I would
send them a number from the bottom of my toaster they would send me a new egg
tray. I did so immediately and have received an email already stating that my
new free egg tray is already shipped. They also informed me they made
improvements on the handle of the egg tray.
So because of their personal involvement and the way they handled my email, I
highly recommend their product. It is really neat to use to make the Egg
McMuffins with and we loved having it. Can't wait to start using it again.

For Dawn in Ma regarding the Ritz peanut butter cookies. I submitted that recipe
about 2 months ago, and thought you might like to try another version. Make up a
powdered sugar frosting (powdered sugar and margarine) and add to it mint,
raspberry or other flavors, along with coloring, and use that rather than the
peanut butter. Really good stuff. Roz in Indy
=============
For the 2 ingredient gang-----I have not found "cherry chips" but I did find red
vanilla chips at Joanne Fabrics. I haven't used them yet but plan to this
weekend. I will also add some dried cherries to the fudge. My daughter made
cherry fudge this past weekend, using white chips and a half can of pie cherries
that she chopped. I warned her about too much liquid and I was right--it did not
set up well. So we reheated the "fudge" and added another 1/2 package of white
chips. We used a total of 14-15 oz of the chips and it hardened well and tasted
wonderful. I also have made lemon with white chips, lemon icing, a 1/2 teaspoon
of vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract. This may be one of my favorites.

Hi Nancy, In Dec. 12 newsletter Grateful in Mt. Juliet TN asked about the Hand &
Body Lotion that was in the 12-9 newsletter courtesy of Tona in Bama.. Someone
else wrote in a day or so later and said they mixed the lotion in a baggy and
they cut of tip of bag and squeezed into jars. Sounds easier as I wouldn't like
to try getting that off my electric mixer beaters. (Simplier to squish a baggy.)
Jan Bradenton Fl. Dec. 12 newsletter. I made lemon fudge from lemon icing and
white chips. Added a little lemon extract. Then sprinkled crushed lemon drops on
top before the fudge had time to set up. (Put hard lemon candy in plastic
sandwich bag, and gently crush with a hammer.)

In response to Cyndi in Texas (12/10), I have made granola using Quaker oatmeal.
Just make sure you use old fashioned oats and not the quick cooking oats.
The following is my variation of a granola recipe from MrBreakfast.com
Coconut Granola
4 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup flaked coconut
1/4 cup chopped almonds
1/4 cup wheat germ
1/4 cup flax seeds (optional)
1/4 cup cranberries
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
white chocolate chips
In a large bowl combine the oats, almonds, wheat germ, flax seeds and coconut.
In a saucepan, on medium heat, stir butter, brown sugar, honey, oil, flavorings,
and salt together until well mixed. Pour over oat mixture and stir to coat
evenly. Pour onto a well-greased baking pan.
Bake at 275 degrees for 1 hour or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
Remove from oven and let cool. Then stir in the cranberries and white chocolate
chips.

Hello to all in Nancyland! My puter has been acting up and it has taken a while
to get back! I've been cooking up a storm this season! I have a few to share
too. Here's a fabulous one! There were no leftovers on this baby! The bourbon
cuts the sickly sweetness of regular pecan pie!
Chocolate-Bourbon Pecan Pie
1/2 (15 oz) package refrigerated piecrusts
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
1 cup (6oz) chocolate morsels (I used Ghiradelli dark)
1 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup bourbon or water (I used Jim Beam bourbon)
4 large eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
Fit piecrust into your nine-inch pie plate and fold edges and crimp. Sprinkle
pecans and chocolate evenly on bottom of crust; set aside. Combine corn syrup
and next 3 ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat
Cook; stir constantly for about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Whisk together eggs and next 4 ingredients. Gradually, whisk about one-fourth of
the hot mixture into the egg mixture. Add this to the remaining hot mixture,
whisking constantly. Pour filling into prepared piecrust.
Bake at 325 for 55 minutes or until set; cool on wire rack.
8 servings.
This is good hot or cold! The taste will vary with types of chocolate and
bourbon brands. It's a good idea to put your pie on a cookie sheet or pizza pan
in the oven. Just in case that is. I had to drive all the way to Missouri to get
the bourbon as I'm in and surrounded by dry counties! it was well worth the
drive though. And I'm 41, single, female and have traveled a lot! My mother
passed away last year from gallbladder cancer and this is a hard year for us
kids. It just makes family all that much more important. Happy Holidays and I'll
share more soon!

A while back everyone sent in hints and tips about mailing overseas to the
military stationed in Iran and Iraq. A friend of mine's son is over there now

that was in?

"For Andrea in Los Angeles, here's a recipe for a microwave brown sugar fudge.
We called it penuche
when my Mom made it when we were kids; of course hers was the boil on top of the
stove kind. Stirring
very well makes the smoothest penuche. If you have to store it for awhile, it
may get sugary, but it still tastes good."
Microwave Penuche
1-2/3 c. butter
1 c. packed brown sugar
1 (14.oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1-1/2½ t. vanilla
Put butter in a 2-quart glass measuring cup. Microwave on full power for 1
minute. Stir in brown sugar and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave on full
power for 8 to 9 minutes or until mixture is a medium caramel color, stirring
every 2 minutes. Stir in vanilla. Beat with a wooden spoon for 2 to 3 minutes.
Fold in chopped nuts. Pour into an 8" or 9" square pan lined with foil and
buttered. Cool slightly,
then refrigerate to set. Cut into squares

For Cheryl in Ohio from December 12
Our WalMart has the cherry chips - however they are not the "real deal" and
don't melt as quickly as the chocolate chips for example.
My husband - who does not cook at all - has made 5 different batches over the
last two Saturdays. I have two broken shoulders and can do no cooking - can't
even reach the oven or micro - so it's been a real experience for both of us.
But this recipe intrigued me and he agreed to be my guinea pig.
If you use these, melt for the same amount of time - but just be prepared to
stir a little longer. Then he used Cheesecake Frosting with them. He says they
are the best of the bunch.
The second Saturday he made the fudge, we buttered foil sheets to go into the
8x8 pans and then when chilled just lifted them out to a cutting board - came
out with no crumbs or lost pieces - AND no clean-up.
He's been wonderful through all this - and we just found out yesterday he has
another month to go at least. His making fudge tickles every one who knows him.
Good luck!

I have made several breakfast casseroles but they always seem so dry. I had one
once that was very good but can't figure out the measurements. Maybe some of you
have made this one? It has frozen shredded hash browns, cheese, eggs and what
ever breakfast meat you like. It also had red bell peppers in rings on top for
decoration at Christmas - very pretty.

To Susie in Indy, from Don in Mich' I read your note about your hands being in
rough shape. I have a solution. There is a product that has been out for some
time called "Bag Balm" You can find it in Meijers, or Walmart. It is used by
farmers to put on the udders of their cows. It cures dry skin, cuts and
abrasions. The farmers quickly learned that it does wonders for their hands as
well. I have the same problem you do, All those little cuts are like paper cuts,
they really hurt. So I rubbed a glob of Bag Balm on my hands and put on rubber
gloves before I went to bed. In the morning my hands were cured, for stubborn
cases I did it two nights in a row. This lasted for about two weeks before I did
it again. Small price to pay for the relief I got. It really works. I found this
out by word of mouth from my neighbor.

Hi Nancy in 12/12 issue Susie/Indy stated her hands were cracked and dry. My
Dermatologist recommends Cetaphil. I got some and put it on each day after my

this helps.

I know someone in Nancyland will have a good idea on dipping things in
Chocolate. We get so tired of dipping the peanut butter/ Ritz , the cookie
balls, Martha Washingtons. It seems everything we make, we have to dip. I know
you can pour the chocolate if its on a this wire rack, but this is so messy. We
usually dip, using 2 forks. Using toothpicks didn't work. My daughter had
several things she wanted to make but after she started dipping the things she
had to dip, she got a little burned out.
Next week on the day(AM) I have my cardiology workup done, I'm to have 2 large
crockpots at my husbands work full of chili for a chilicook off at noon. Several
were relieved that I was bringing mine--the boss like his chili HOT. I'm really
not in competitation with him, but I do want to make a good pot of chili. I'm
using my tweeked version of the Wendie's clone. My husband loves it.
So next week, when I was just taking fudge and cookies for the guys to snack on
when they come into the office has gone to bring candy and snacks for at least
45 and chili for that many too! Happy Birthday to me to! My husband is enjoying
my retirement as much as I!

For Karen of IL (Dec 12) and others- I found the recipes for brown sugar
fudge/penuche.....I'd been looking for several weeks- finally found them via a
dogpile.com search!
The first two are the traditional and it was in the Nov. 14, 2004 issue of
Daily Recipe Exchange-
sent in originally by Lynnette of NY. There were variations for coconut,peanut
butter, and nut penuche.
Here is the original recipe:
Penuche recipe is made with brown sugar, vanilla, butter, and chopped pecans,
along with candied cherries if desired.
2 pounds light brown sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans
3/4 cup halved candied cherries, optional
In a medium saucepan, mix brown sugar, milk, butter, and salt. Cook, stirring,
until sugar is dissolved. Cook without stirring until soft ball stage is
reached* or to 238° on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and let cool to
lukewarm.
Add vanilla, pecans, and cherries, if using. Beat until thick. Pour into a
buttered 9-inch square pan. When firm, cut into squares.
Makes about 3 pounds of penuche.
*To Test for Soft Ball Stage
A small amount of syrup dropped into chilled water forms a ball, but is soft
enough to flatten when picked up with fingers (234° to 240°).

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Penuche Recipe
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup Karo, Blue Label
1/2 cup rich milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon butter
1/3 teaspoon vanilla
Combine the Karo, butter, sugar, milk and salt and boil until a little when
tried in cold water forms a soft ball, 238 degrees F. Cool till tepid, add the
vanilla, heat until creamy and pour one half inch deep into a medium-sized pan
lightly oiled. When almost cool, cut into squares.

I make various candies each year to keep up the family tradition, but for the

Microwave Penuche
1-2/3 c. butter

Hi to all,
My daughter made this the last two years at Christmas and was a big hit.
A box cheesits
peanut butter
dipping chocolate
Take one cheesit and spread with peanut butter, make three layers (three
crackers stacked). Dipped in chocolate is so good, you would never think what it
was. Add to the plate of
other dipped chocolates.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all my Nancyland family! Here's hoping
each of you is blessed with the Joy of the Season. A special wish of blessings
and joy for you, Nancy, for bringing us all together.
Regarding the letters about boiling an omelet in a bag: I recently purchased a
vacuum food sealer. The instruction book says you can boil and/or microwave in
the bags. You don't have to vacuum seal the bags, just seal the open end and
boil away. Might be a good alternative for those of you who like the
boiled-in-a-baggie variety.
Lin, adding any kind of water-based liquid to chocolate will seize it; if you
want almond flavoring, try your local cake decorating store and buy some almond
oil.

Hello Nancy, I've been busy sending the two ingredient fudge to all in my
address book, and many have emailed back saying they were going to try it. The
latest I made was milk chocolate chip with caramel frosting, toasted and chopped
pecans. Very good.
I will soon be moving into a new house. It will have smooth surface stovetop and
I know back earlier in the year there was a lot of discussion on how to clean
them. What I would like to know are what is the best cookware to use on it. I
would appreciate any input Nancylander's have. Merry Christmas Connie in TX

To Buckeye Annie looking for a great dessert for her holiday work party (and
anyone else) from the December 3 newsletter,
This recipe has always been a great standby in my family and I have used it for
years—it can be used for summer gatherings and Christmastime. It is very easy
and quick to make. Hope this work for you. Enjoy!!
Watergate Salad
1 tub Cool Whip
1 can crushed pineapple with juice
1 package instant Pistachio Pudding (gives it a nice flavor and green in color
for the holidays. You can also try other pudding flavors for variety. I have
used Banana Walnut and that makes up nice too)
3-4 cups Mini Marshmallows (white or colored)
In a bowl put the can of pineapple with the juice. Mix in the dry pistachio
pudding. Fold in the container of cool whip and the marshmallows. You can finish
the top with candied cherries in red or green for added holiday appeal. Put in
refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. Serve chilled. Enjoy!

Good morning, Nancy and 'Landers! I want to wish you all the lovliest of

For dear Mr. Myron, thanks for reminding me of "old faithful" cheese ball (the
one with cheddar, blue cheese, etc.) I made it for years and years then sort of
forgot about it. BUT YES! It freezes beautifully. Just wrap really, really well
( I wrap in foil, then wrap that in plastic wrap. ) I roll mine in chopped
pecans, then sprinkle some paprika over for color.

In a medium saucepan add cauliflower and water. Bring to a boil and continue
boiling for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain, mix together the cauliflower and
crumbs. Add ham, green pepper and cheddar cheese. Place the whole mixture in a
buttered casserole dish. Top with the sour cream. Sprinkle with paremesan cheese

Hi, Nancy!
Thank you to Lauré in North Hollywood, Ca., Jeanlock in McLean VA. Terese In
South Dakota and Doris in Oklahoma City for your recipes for boiled Lemonade.
I'll pass your recipes on to my friend and I'm sure he'll be very thankful! I'm
also sure he'll say, "I told you so!" (I hate it when he's right!) Thank you all
for your replies to my request.
I also want to thank Bette in Indiana (12/9 newsletter) for sending in her
recipes for Cinnamon Christmas Log Cookies and Powdered Sugar Cookies. I made
both of these this week, and we loved them!
Also, I have a spicy tea mix recipe for M. in Montana (12/1). This isn't a
layered mix, but one that you make up and then spoon into the jar. Hope she can
use this.
Friendship Tea Mix
1 (18 oz.) jar Tang breakfast drink, orange flavor
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. presweetened lemonade mix (such as Country Time)
1/2 c. instant tea
1 (3 oz.) box orange or peach Jello (dry)
2 1/2 t. cinnamon
1 t. cloves
Combine all ingredients and store in an airtight container, or spoon into jars
to give as gifts. Use 1 1/2 T. per cup of hot water.
Thanks, Nancy, for all that you do! (Sorry this is so long!)
