Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies
Comments (11)Hi Etravia: I used Pamela's baking mix only because someone gave me a few bags of it some time ago. Normally I fiddle with a recipe and mix flours to get a blend I like. With cookies I tend to use some brown rice flour I'd use 1 cup here, 1/4 cup soy flour, 1/8 cup, a teaspoon of xanthium gum, and then make up the rest of the 1/8 (a little less) with a starch like potato or tapioca. I do not like some recommended flour mixes in cook books that are all starch and no protein or fiber. Food has to have a value for me to eat it!! I skipped sweetened condensed milk and used a bit of almond milk with two teaspoons cane sugar (because they don't specify enough on the can of milk enough about what is mixed in with the sugar in this product...). We just cooked the almond milk on low heat to "evaporate" it a bit. Tasted great. Nobody at the party noticed anything different about the cookies!

Comments (3)Good morning John and Bodiggly ~ Thank you for your info. John I don't think it's the red one from the description my friend gave me of the one he and his wife saw in someone's property. But, I'll give him the info on both of these with websites and pictures and they can go from there. Bodiggly ~ I think it might be this one. I think these are both beautiful. Thanks again for the info. I appreciate your time. FlowerLady...See MoreWhat have you paired up with your chocolate/brown walls?
Comments (4)Oh, this is hard to describe. The Italian Leather has more of a taupe gray undertone. The dining room has more of a chocolate brown/deep purple undertone? Not sure if that's right. I would get paint chips of each and compare them. I went with the IL because it was on the same paint strip as the other color in the kitchen/family room. But it didn't look odd being next to the dining room. Here is how I picked the color in the dining room...I walked into the BM store and said, I'm looking for a color that looks like dark chocolate.....this is what the gal showed me, I bought it without testing it. lol. (And yes, it took 29 cans of gray sample paint to settle on the foyer color!)...See MoreChocolate covered cherries, do you?
Comments (58)I've always loved the Cella's too, light or dark, I don't care, and they're about the cheapest you can buy. I thought I'd forego them this year, but this thread made my mouth water. Had to go to WalMart yesterday so I thought I'd pick up a box, but couldn't find the Cella's! I didn't buy the off brand, but will look around for the real thing. I did see some that were blueberry though. I've never seen those before. Not a blueberry lover, I got a couple of boxes for my son. Years ago I worked with a gal whose aunt made homemade chocolate covered brandied cherries. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven!!!...See More
