Warning! Don't surf GW while eating Reese's Cups
Comments (12)Sue, I have a rule not to eat at the computer anymore, just can't seem to control myself. Sharon aka Scotty hmmm...maybe my unexplained weight gain this winter because most all of my eating is done in front of the computer, or else the TV. Even when BF is down on the weekends, we always sit in the living room and the TV is usually on though sometimes muted. My GW seed 'stuff' is all over the dining table and I have been putting off attending to it all. I lost/misplaces a prized pack of seeds I had told some I would share, and I fear going through the rubble on the table for fear I won't find them there....sigh Sue...eating as she types...See MoreAnyone have a recipe for a butter almond thin cookie?
Comments (31)At the risk of being tagged a "troll", here's my two cents on this old thread. I've had an empty box of Jules Destrooper's Almond Thins on my computer desk for several months to remind me to look again to see if anyone has developed a recipe and put it online. (I tried it a couple of times myself at first but the results were, well, disappointing.) I found this thread on today's Google search. I don't know anything about Trader Joe's similar cookies, as we don't have that supermarket chain in the New Orleans area, but the list of ingredients in the Destrooper butter almond cookie is clearly different from the "Destrooper" recipe linked above at Yahoo! Answers: INGREDIENTS: WHEAT FLOUR, BROWN SUGAR, BUTTER, ALMONDS, SALT. (Listed in that order.) Of note: no egg, no vanilla. The only sources of moisture in the genuine Destrooper's are the brown sugar and the butter and I'm guessing I could try a dozen more times before I figured out the proportions and baking technique that would work. (I'm an OK cook but not that much of a baker.) Perhaps "WHEAT FLOUR" is how folks in Belgium refer to "whole wheat flour" but I'm not thinking this is the critical difference, at least vis-a-vis Destrooper's (versus Trader Joe's). I'm thinking that adding egg and vanilla and omitting the molasses flavor of the brown sugar would tend to make a very different cookie, regardless of the proportions of other ingredients and the baking technique. I'll let you know if I ever figure it out......See MoreWhat is the fastest, best way to make peanut butter fudge?
Comments (4)Barb, this is the recipe I use. It doubles easily and I make a huge half sheet pan full in less than half an hour. No beating until it's stiff, my carpal tunnel won't let me do that, so I make this. Everyone loves the stuff and I can use different types of chips so I can make half chocolate and half peanut butter if I use peanut butter chips, or chocolate mint or use vanilla chips and maple flavoring, or whatever suits me. If I double the recipe, I do have to cook longer, maybe 9 or 10 minutes. Fantasy Fudge Ingredients: 3 cups white sugar 3/4 cup butter 2/3 cup evaporated milk 1 (12 ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips 1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme 1 cup chopped walnuts 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1. Grease a 9x13-inch pan. 2. Mix sugar, margarine, and evaporated milk in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Bring mixture to a full boil for 5 -7 minutes, stirring constantly, you should reach soft ball stage. 3. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until melted and thoroughly combined. Beat in marshmallow creme, walnuts, and vanilla extract. Transfer fudge to the prepared pan and let cool before cutting into squares. Merry Christmas. Annie...See Morepeanut butter and crackers
Comments (23)I hadn't eaten PB in decades, but our DGD exists primarily on yoghurt and PB&J sandwiches. I 'inherited' her jar of JIF Creamy Natural PB when they left Maui for home, and I've enjoyed a little of it on crackers. ('A little' is key. It's 100 calories per tablespoon.) I used to prefer crunchy, and it wasn't 'natural' AFAIK. Yes to banana and PB -- also a sandwich of sweet pickles and PB. Nanny98 -- Might you be allergic to some additive that is now IN the PB or the coffee -- or their containers? Some preservatives are really toxic, and as we age, we become more sensitive to them....See Morekimmq
