<br />
5 oz Butter (2/3 cup)<br />
10.5 oz White Sugar (1 1/2 C)<br />
2 Eggs<br />
1 t. Vanilla<br />
2 T. Milk<br />
2 1/2 t. Baking Powder<br />
1/2 t. Salt (I used 1 t.)<br />
14.6 oz Flour (3 1/4 C)<br />
<br />
350 degrees 7-9 min. until lightly browned.<br />
<br />
Frost w/ Buttercream Frosting<br />
<br />
<u><b>Buttercream Frosting</b></u><br />
<u><br /></u>
16 oz Butter (4 sticks)<br />
32 oz. Powdered Sugar (2 lbs. or 8 C)<br />
2 t. Vanilla<br />
4-7 T Milk<br />
<br />
Cream butter and Powdered sugar till dry and hunks of butter gone. Add milk and Vanilla, ship till light and fluffy.<br />
<br />
<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: normal;"><i>Ah the perfect sugar cookie - light, fluffy, sugary, melt in your melt goodness. And the Frosting - wow!</i></span></i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Thank you cookies master Missy Hintze for the recipe and for teaching us how cookies enrich our lives. Great tips from Missy:</i><br />
<i>To reduce cleanup time: weigh all ingredients and use parchment paper. You will only need to wash the one weighing bin and mixing bowl. No measuring cups or cookie sheets to wash (parchment paper can be thrown away after about 7 uses). So clever!</i><br />
<i>For a fluffier cookie - add more powdered sugar and/or milk.</i><br />

<i>Ooooooo, you ladies ready for the ultimate easy chicken staple? This comes to you care of my friend Tiffany. It is TASTY and makes your kitchen smell yummy! You can enjoy its savory deliciousness tonight and then - because it is a basic, versatile recipe - so you can use leftovers for any recipe that calls for chicken (think BBQ chicken sandwiches tomorrow, tortilla chicken soup the next day.) </i></div>
<ul>
<li>4-5 breasts chicken (I use frozen)</li>
<li>3 tablespoons lemon juice</li>
<li>4-5 tablespoons butter</li>
<li>1 Tablespoon garlic powder</li>
<li>seasoning salt (I use Lawry's brand) to sprinkle on top</li>
</ul>
<div>
Throw all ingredients in the crockpot together and cook on high 4 hours or low 6-8 hours.</div>

Let sit until</div><div>it bubbles and froths slightly. Set aside.</div><div><br /></div><div>In mixer with a dough hook attachment:</div><div>Mix melted butter and milk at low speed. Add the eggs and mix until blended. Scrape the yeast mixture into</div><div>mixing bowl and mix until incorporated. Add ½ cup sugar, 7 cups of flour and 1 tablespoon of salt; mix until the</div><div>dough forms a ball, 2 to 3 minutes, adding up to ½ cup to 1 cup more flour if the dough is too wet and sticky.</div><div><br /></div><div>Brush a large bowl with softened butter. Transfer the dough to the bowl, cover with a towel and let rise in a warm</div><div>place for 2 – 2 ½ hours until dough doubles in volume.</div><div><br /></div><div>Preheat the oven to 375 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Dust with flour a clean flat surface or use a</div><div>non-stick silicone mat and turn the dough out onto it. Flour your hands; gently press the dough into a 16 by 8 inch</div><div>(or larger) rectangle, about ½ to ¾ inch thick. Don’t use a rolling pin.</div><div><br /></div><div>With the long side of the dough in front of you, cut the dough lengthwise two times with a floured knife or pizza</div><div>cutter. You will nowhave 3 strips of dough. Don’t separate the long strips but cut the strips into 12 equal parts –</div><div>you will end up with 36 rolls.</div><div><br /></div><div>16”</div><div><br /></div><div>To form rolls, pick up each roll, fold the roll unevenly in half so the top part slightly overlaps the bottom half, then</div><div>tuck the overhang underneath. Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet in 3 tightly packed</div><div>rolls. (If making in advance, wrap the baking sheet tightly in plastic wrap and freeze up to 3 weeks.</div><div><br /></div><div>Bake (at 375)until the rolls are bursting at the seams and golden brown – 18 to 20 minutes. (If frozen, bake 25</div><div>minutes at 325 then 10 minutes at 375.) Remove from the oven and brush with softened butter. Sprinkle with</div><div>kosher salt and serve immediately.</div></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9178438483247177085.post-2880962102196461352011-11-15T04:44:00.000-08:002011-12-01T08:01:37.302-08:00Pistachio Granola<span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><span itemprop="amount"><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:12px;"><span itemprop="amount"><i>I love this granola with yogurt and fresh fruit.

I wish it were mine originally, but it's not, it's some lady's named Rhonda J on Recipezaar, but THANKS Rhonda, it is the BEST ever!<br />
She says to cook it at 275, but it takes it a LONG time in my oven on that temp, so I do the first half hour at 325 and the last half at 300, if still not cooked in the middle add another 5-10mins at 275. But try it first at 275 your oven might be different???<br />
Once it's out of the oven you need to do the "freezer-trick" method, where you wrap the top with saran wrap and put it in the freezer for 45mins.<br />
You can half the frosting recipe if you are hoping for more of a glaze look or the whole for a more frosted cake feel...<br />

This is one of my favorite recipes from my mom that we don't make anymore (cursed milk allergies!), but I really miss it, so I thought I would share it so others could enjoy it. :0) It's pretty simple, and oh so good!<br />
------------------<br />
1/2 pound chicken breasts<br />
2 packages Pillsbury crescent rolls<br />
1 package Cream Cheese <br />
1/8 - 1/4 cup milk<br />
Garlic powder to taste (maybe a tablespoon if you like garlic)<br />
<br /></div>
Cook and cut up two chicken breasts). Unroll 2 pkgs of Pillsbury crescent rolls. Keep them in rectangles (they normally would be divided into 8 triangles). Squeeze or "smoosh" the lines together in the middle of the rectangle so the dough will hold together. <br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
Soften a package of cream cheese with a little milk (to taste, but less than a quarter cup - you want the sauce thick) and stir in garlic powder to taste. Use a whisk so it all mixes well.</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Add chicken to cream cheese mix and put a mound in middle of dough rectangle (about the size of an ice cream scoop). Fold sides of rectangle over chicken mix and squeeze edges to seal. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Bake in oven for 11 to 13 minutes at 375 (follow the instructions for the rolls), and enjoy!</div>

Sorry it has taken me almost a year to actually remember to post this recipe. Ü Enjoy!<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #663300; font-size: 130%;">BROWNIE</span></strong><br />
1 c. flour 4 eggs<br />
1 c. sugar 16 oz. can of chocolate syrup<br />
1/2 c. butter<br />
<br />
Mix all ingredients together. Pour into a greased 9 X 13 pan. Bake at 350* for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely and then spread with mint layer. Then chill again before putting the chocolate layer on top. Cover and chill again before serving.<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #006600; font-size: 130%;">MINT LAYER</span></strong><br />
2 c. powdered sugar<br />
½ c. butter<br />
1 T. water<br />
½ t. mint extract<br />
A few drops of green food coloring<br />
(Beat until smooth.)<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color: #663300; font-size: 130%;">CHOCOLATE LAYER</span></strong><br />
6 T. butter<br />
1 c. milk chocolate chips<br />
(Microwave for 1 to 1 1/2 min. Stir until smooth.)Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14488914847357379814noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9178438483247177085.post-80562528324014286912011-01-08T14:48:00.001-08:002012-02-26T13:55:43.945-08:00Coconut MacaroonsI have been meaning to post this for months!<br />
<br />
1 16 oz bag of shredded coconut (though I usually have two bags on hand just incase, you will see why.)<br />
2 egg whites<br />
3 Tbsp sugar<br />
1 tsp almond extract<br />
2 tsp vanilla<br />
1 can sweet and condensed milk<br />
<br />
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. (one recipe said 250, but that never worked for me)<br />
In a bowl whip the egg whites until they begin to form soft peaks. Add the sugar and the extracts to the egg white mixture. Continue to beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.<br />
<br />
In another large bowl dump the coconut and stir in sweet the sweet and condensed milk. You don't want to dump the whole can at once. You want just enough of the sweet and condensed milk to create a sticky batter. It takes awhile to get the sense for what that is you just don't want the mixture to be runny. If there is too much sweet and condensed milk the macaroons don't cook right. I will sometimes have to add more coconut to get the right texture if I have added too much milk.<br />
<br />
Gently fold in the egg mixture into the coconut batter until completely incorporated. Spoon teaspoon sized balls onto a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. (I use the Silpat, seriously couldn't live without it!)<br />
I use the pampered chief ice cream/cookie scoop it works perfectly. Place the pan in the oven on the center rack and cook for 30 minutes. Here is the important part. When the timer beeps, turn off the oven, crack it open and leave the cookies in the oven until it cools. Then remove the cookies from the oven and place them cookies on a cooling rack. Sometimes I drizzle melted chocolate on top, other times I just leave them.<br />
