For Kara. Hope this is what you are looking
for:
Cinnamon Applesauce Ornaments
1 cup cinnamon (needless to say, buy it in bulk or you'll be putting out a
big chunk of change)
3/4 cup applesauce
1/4 cup white glue
Mix ingredients, and flatten dough on floured surface. Use cookie cutters
to cut out holiday shapes. Punch a small hole in the ornament if you want
to hang it. Let dry for 48 hours.
AnneE from Pa.
This is for 'Sandy in Ohio' on Friday, 12/8 -- from
Ruth B in Broadview Heights, Ohio: I've used crystallized
ginger in cooked pears, similar to making applesauce. Just cut the ginger
in very small pieces and add while the pears are cooking. It gives them a
different and delicious flavor.
It also is good to nibble on if you have an upset stomach; similar to ginger
ale.
The only place I buy crystallized ginger is in the Amish shops around
Millersburg and Sugarcreek. Do you shop there too?? They, too, can possibly give
you some ideas for using it.
Thanks, Nancy, for adding this to your great newsletter!

Hi everyone!!
I am looking for a TNT recipe for Santa Lucia bread.
I would like to add this little celebration to my family's Christmas traditions.
I don't have a daughter to serve the bread, but I guess we can improvise and
just eat it!!
Thanks all, Heidi
Hello, how do you ladies and men bakers
keep your goodies till Christmas?. I freeze cakes
and breads, and cookies. What about the candy and fudge?
thanks, Sybil NW FL
Nancy, love your Newsletters. Hope I live long enough
to try all the recipes I have saved from them (^_^)
I've seen a lot of recipes in recent newsletters for Fruit Salad. This is one I
made this week and it was very good. You can add or eliminate fruit, use what
you like. Put it in my 1.5 quart slow cooker instead of the oven. My small slow
cooker does not have a temperature choice but it was just right to eat after 2
hours. And the fruit was not mushy.
HOT FRUIT SALAD
1 lg can peaches, drained
1 16 oz. can pineapple chunks, drained
1 lg can pears with juice
1 can apricots, drained
15 maraschino cherries
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tsp. allspice
2 tbsp. butter
Place drained fruit and pear juice into a baking dish. Combine cornstarch, bra
sugar and allspice.
Sprinkle over fruit. Let stand overnight. Dot with butter. Bake 325º for 30
minutes or until hot.
I would use a little less brown sugar next time. Also, I made just half of the
above recipe and put it in my 1.5 quart slow cooker. Cooked for 2 hours.
Delicious.

Hi Nancy, This is for Mary Ann (Dec. 8 newsletter)
Irish Brown Soda Bread
2 C. Whole Wheat Flour
1/2 C. All Purpose Flour
3 Tbls. Quick Cooking Oats
1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 tsp. salt
1 1/4 C. low-fat buttermilk
Prehear oven to 425 degrees. Spray baking sheet with cooking spray. In large
bowl, stir together flours, oats, soda and salt. Gently mix to distribute all
ingredients. Add the buttermilk a little at a time and mix in gently until a
soft dough is formed. Knead the dough very lightly. Divide the dough into equal
mounds in the bowl. Clean and dry your hands and rub them with a little flour.
Take 1/2 the dough and form into a ball, then flatten into a rounded flat loaf.
Place on baking sheet. Repeat for the other 1/2 of the dough. Mark each loaf
with an X on top. Bake in preheated oven about 30-37 minutes--until the loaves
are a golden brown and have a hollow sound when thumped. Set aside to cool
slightly before serving. Cut each loaf into 8 wedges.
Per serving: (2 wedges), approx. 153 calories; 1.1 g. fat; 30.8 g. carbs.; 1.9

Irish Soda Bread
3-3/4 C. Whole Wheat Flour
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbl real butter
2 eggs at room temperature
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
2 Tbl. sugar
12/3 C. buttermilk
1 Tbl. melted real butter
1 C. raisins
1 1/2 Tbl caraway seeds
Mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar together in a bowl. Cut the butter into
small pieces and add it to the dry ingredients. Beat the eggs in another bowl
and stir in the buttermilk and baking soda and continue to beat everything until
it has evenly combined. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and
drop the egg/buttermilk mixture into it all at once and then add the raisins and
caraway seeds. Mix ingredients together with a fork until everything has evenly
mixed. Turn dough out onto a dry, floured surface and knead it gently for 20
seconds. Shape dough into a ball and place on a buttered baking sheet and
flatten it, with the palm of your hand into an 8 inch round loaf. Dip a knife in
the melted butter and slash cuts across the bread to form a cross (creating
quarters), approx. 1/4 inch deep.
Brush bread with remaining melted butter and bake in a moderately well preheated
oven 375 degrees for approx. 45 minutes or until the bread is a golden brown in
color. Remove from the oven and tap it on the bottom, if bread is ready, it
should have a hollow sound. Allow it to cool on a wire rack, wrapped in a
kitchen towel. This prevents the bread from hardening from the sudden
temperature change. This bread is good lukewarm or cooled.
I have this recipe for some time and have no idea where I picked it up.

Answer to:
From the December 1 newsletter. I am wondering if anyone has gotten one of those
new egg McMuffin machines where u make the egg and
muffin? Just wanted to know before I spend the $40.00 for one. Lu Ann in Iowa
Lu Ann, I have had one for almost a year now and really enjoy it. I love to fix
sausage, egg and toast or Canadian bacon, egg and toast. I haven't tried it with
the muffins yet. It is also great for boiling eggs for a salad. The eggs really
peel easier I have found. If you get one I hope you enjoy it as much as I do
mine. If you have several children I don't know how long it would take to fix
each one a sandwich. I'm usually the only one eating when I use it.

This is a reply to the problems
people have with AOL e-mail. My suggestion is that
they get a free Yahoo address. I use my Yahoo address for odd things, like when
a website wants me to register and for when I travel as I can easily access it
from any computer. I've never had a problem getting e-mail at that address,
especially Yahoo Groups e-mail! Mail

Hello Nancy, I was wondering if you have ever tried

Hi Nancy and everyone!
First of all, the 2 ingredient fudge is fantastic! My husband - who never goes
into the kitchen - made 2 batches last Saturday and will do 3 more variations
tomorrow. Right now I have 2 broken shoulders from a dumb accident so he's
finding his way around the kitchen real well - but the fudge was a fun thing and
have already "gifted" with it!
What I really want to know is --
Has anyone seen or heard an update on the Omelet in a Bag deal? They were so
good and so handy. A friend even served them at a 12 year olds slumber party -
the girls were so excited to do their own thing.
We loved them - and would like to make them again - but only if it's safe.
Does anyone know anything about this?
Thank you - and if I don't write again (typing is very hard) Happy Holidays to
all of you.
Rosemarie in rural Kansas City
For Barbara in AL and TX and everybody that asked for
the cheese dip recipe in 12-8-06 newsletter:
Mexican Cheese Dip
1½ to 2 pounds of white American cheese (I get it in the deli and ask them to
cut a block instead of slicing it and grate it myself)
1 cup milk
1 small can chopped chilies
Put milk in a medium to large saucepan and warm it up to just before it would
boil. Stir in chilies and add grated cheese a little at a time and stir
constantly. When you have put in the last of the cheese and it has melted, it is
ready to serve.
I don't remember where I got this recipe, except off the net.
Also, I would suggest not making the whole recipe until you know if you like it
or not. I don't like it really hot so i didn't use many of the canned chiles. I
just used a little of the cheese and a little milk and chilies. It tasted just
like what I got at our Mexican restaurant.
Sandee in West TN
To Joyce in SC, (Dec. 8 newsletter) You mentioned
that the amount of cream cheese wasn't given in the recipe for Creamsicle Pie
that Lisa in Fort Worth sent in. I copied and pasted the recipe into my recipe
file, and here is how it reads. Can't imagine why the amount didn't show up for
you. Hope this clears it up. BTW, I haven't tried the recipe yet, but it sure
sounds good. I love orange anything! Have very Merry Christmas.
Cheryl in Ohio

Mary G Pueblo, Colorado
Jo Ann in the Dec.8th newsletter was asking for the
recipe for SNOW BALLS or SHAGGY DATE COOKIES. These
cookies were published in a cookbook my church made in the 60's.
2 well beaten eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup finely chopped dates
dash of salt
2 cups Rice Krispies
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 tsp. vanilla
2/3 cup coconut
Combine eggs, sugar, dates and salt, Turn into a cold lightly buttered skillet.
Cook and stir constantly over low heat until ingredients are throughly mixed and
mixture is thick, 18-20 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool a little, add cereal,
nuts, and vanilla. Butter hands and shape into one inch balls, roll in coconut.
Store in a covered container.
I had the recipe out to make them myself for a get together with our church
choir. Hope you enjoy.
Sue from Lubbock
The same or similar recipe was sent in by Frances in
Wesley Chapel, Julie in MD, Nell in VA, Mary in Oregon,
The two ingredient fudge was a hit tonight at my
annual family cookie exchange. I made the peppermint
chocolate pieces with chocolate icing then sprinkled crushed peppermint
candy on top. Wow, it was great! Also made the raspberry flavored and a batch of
the peanut flavored but the peppermint was the best. Of course, I had to give
everyone the "secret" recipe. Thanks for all of the great recipes. Norma in NC
In the Dec. 6th.
newsletter, Tina In Phx sent in her "Can't-Leave-Alone-Bars"
recipe. Tina, thank you for the recipe. Talk about a decadent fudgy treat! I
made it with a package of chocolate cake as I didn't have a box of white or
yellow cake. If brownies mated with fudge, your recipe would be their offspring.
For those of you who have been looking for a new recipe to make and give as a
gift, this is it! The recipe makes a rich, dense, chocolaty, almost brownie-like
bar that's out of this world! Its better than any brownie that I've ever tasted
in the past. I'm going to add walnuts to it and make batches to give away this
year as gifts. Its one of the easiest and best recipes that I've had the
pleasure of trying thanks to Nancy's wonderful newsletter. Tina, bravo! Thank
you so much for submitting the recipe!

Hi Nancy: I just want to tell you that I have
no trouble getting your newsletter and I thank you
so much for all the work you do. To everyone, thank you for your recipes and
happy thoughts throughout the year, I wish you all a very merry Christmas, happy
Hanukkah, and a happy healthy 2007. Kisses to your sweet furry associates.
Phyllis in Phoenix.
Hi again to Nancy and all. I don't know what I would
do without the information gathered from this letter. I picked up a package of
Andes peppermint crunch chips. I haven't opened the package yet, but wondered if
anybody else has used them. I have been making the 2 ingredient fudge in various
varieties and really like it. My husband still prefers the
old fashioned fudge kind better. I was wondering if these Andes chips
will melt as well as the regular chips. I thought they would be good with
creamed cheese frosting and a little crushed peppermint mixed in. What do you
think?
Thanks. Karen, Il
This for Glenda in NJ from the 12/08 newsletter who
asked for a recipe for chocolate fudge that used chocolate chips, marshmallows
and sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Glenda I hope this is the one. Haven't
used it in awhile.
Evelyn in Tennessee
Creamy Dark Chocolate Fudge
3 (6 oz.) packages semisweet chocolate chips
1 (14 oz.) can Sweetened Condensed milk
2 cups miniature marshmallows

1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a heavy saucepan, over low heat, melt chips and miniature marshmallows with
sweetened condensed milk and salt. Remove from heat; stir in nuts and vanilla.
Spread evenly into wax paper-lined 8 or 9-inch square pan. Chill for 2 hours or

Hello to all the good folks out in Nancyland and of
course to Nancy and her furry friends. My Furry buddy says hi to your furry
friends. Now then, I am still after all these years and so many tries later I
can't make a crust worth eating. It always comes out dry and you can't even try
and roll it. So I was wondering,,,, Has anyone ever tried to make a dough for
pies or even cookies or anything like that in the bread machine???? The only
time I have a good dough it is in the bread machine. So I thought I would ask.
Please help with this.
Colleen In Ontario Canada
who can't make a dough at all. Thank You all
Hi Nancy and everyone. Im hoping my neighbors towards
the Saint Louis area are back with power, and have dug themselves out of the
snow and ice. We are praying for you all.
I have to agree with Doris, S. Indiana (12/8)about
the Easy Spinach Casserole that Marlene in Lake Conroe TX submitted in the 11/23
newsletter. It is wonderful! I took it to 2 of my 7 Christmas events to cook
for, and it was a big hit! For a little variation, I added a can of sliced water
chestnuts drained first to the casserole. After the 25-30 minutes of cooking
time, I sprinkled croutons on top and baked another 5 minutes until the croutons
were brown. So Yummy! Thanks Marlene, and thanks to Nancy for this fabulous
newsletter! God Bless!
