reido50 Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Ultimate Pumpkin Pie Ingredients For the crust: 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 5 teaspoons sugar Salt 12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces For the filling and topping: 1 15-ounce can pure pumpkin 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened Salt 3 large eggs, plus 1 egg white 1/2 cup sugar 1 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1/2 cup pecans 1 cup fresh cranberries, or frozen, thawed and drained 1 2.3-ounce package amaretti cookies (about 12) Directions Make the crust: Combine the flour, sugar and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Mix in the cold butter with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Work in 3 tablespoons ice water until the dough holds together without being too sticky. If it's still crumbly, add more ice water, 1 teaspoon at a time. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. On a floured surface, roll out the dough into an 11- to 12-inch circle with a floured rolling pin. Ease into a 9-inch pie pan; press firmly into the bottom and sides. Trim the excess dough, then pinch the edges. Refrigerate until ready to fill. Place a baking sheet on the bottom oven rack and preheat to 375. Make the filling: Whisk the pumpkin in a bowl with the butter and a pinch of salt. Whisk in 3 eggs and the sugar. Stir in the cream, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Lightly beat the egg white, then brush onto the pastry edges. Carefully place the pie on the preheated baking sheet, lower the oven temperature to 325 and bake until the pie is set but still jiggles slightly, about 50 minutes. Let cool completely. Meanwhile, make the topping: Toast the pecans on a baking sheet in the oven for about 10 minutes; cool. With a knife or food processor, coarsely chop the pecans, cranberries and cookies; sprinkle over the cooled pie.
BrotherFlounder Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Sugar Spice Nuts1 lb pecans1 cup sugar1 egg white3/4 tsp salt1 tsp cinnamon1 tbsp water Beat the egg white and water in a large bowl until frothy. Stir in the sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well. Add the pecans and mix well. Try and get all of the pecans coated. Spread the pecans in a single layer onto a baking sheet. (I recommend using disposable baking sheets on top of your normal sheets; this stuff is murder to clean.) Bake at 200 degrees F for 45 minutes. Remove and stir every 15 minutes. When done, stir again, allow to cool for a few minutes and then transfer to a bowl. Don't let them completely harden on the baking sheet or you'll have a rather difficult time getting them off. Enjoy!
misstaken Posted October 28, 2009 Posted October 28, 2009 Sugar Spice Nuts1 lb pecans1 cup sugar1 egg white3/4 tsp salt1 tsp cinnamon1 tbsp water I wonder if this would work with other types of nuts?

mom2isabella05 Posted October 29, 2009 Posted October 29, 2009 We make truffles every year for our family and one of our favorite recipes is the Oreo truffles around posted on page one. Another favorite is Caramel Truffles Ingredients 26 caramels 1 cup milk chocolate chips 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream 1 1/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 tablespoon shortening Directions 1. Line an 8 inch square dish with plastic wrap and set aside. 2. In a microwave safe bowl, combine the caramels, milk chocolate chips and cream. 3. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 1 minute; stir. 4. Microwave 1 minute longer, stirring every 15 seconds or until caramels are melted and mixture is smooth. 5. Spread into prepared dish; refrigerate 1 hour or until firm. 6. Using plastic wrap, lift candy out of pan. 7. Cut into 30 pieces, rolling each piece into a 1 inch ball. 8. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until firm. 9. In microwave safe bowl, melt semisweet chips and shortening; stir until smooth. 10. Dip caramels in chocolate and place on waxed paper-lined baking sheets. 11. Refrigerate until firm. For me, instead of step 9 (melting the chocolate chips and shortening) I use white almond bark or chocolate almond bark for all my truffles. And, I even have a wilton candy melter that I use since I make so many. We usually do 5 or 6 different kind of truffles each year and I end up making about 5 batches of each to ship to family and friends. I personally love the caramel ones best, probably because by the time I get to the finished product I've eaten so many unfinished that I can't stand to try another one and the caramel ones are the only ones I've actually eaten when finished. Frequently, they disappear from my fridge before I can get to dip them (since i make so many at a time, I keep them in the freezer or fridge until I can dip them, and then again until I can ship them) But when they are room temperature they are oh so yummy and addicting!

tlklcox Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 (edited) Here are a few we make every year. Every year we get together and bake from 9 a.m. until approx. 9 p.m. Exhausting but so worth it! Peppermint Crisps (got this recipe from MIL who had it passed down from her mom) 1/2 cup shortening 2 eggs 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1 cup sugar 2 tblsp milk 2 cups flour 1/2 tsp baking soda red/white peppermint candy crushed cream shortening and sugar. Beat in eggs. Sift dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture alternately w/ milk. Drop spoonful of dough on cookie sheet and use flat glass dipped in flour to flatten. Sprinkle w/ crushed candy in center. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet right away to prevent sticking. Let cool on cooling rack. Serves approx. 4 dozen (I think a little less though...I think I make them a little big) tip: this dough needs to be cool otherwise it spreads very thin while baking. Holiday Oatmeal Cookies (we have made this for about 5 years now I got it from a magazine and tweaked it a bit) 1 1/2 cups flour 1/2 tsp. salt 3/4 cup packed brown sugar 1 large egg 3 cups oats 1 cup semi sweet chips 1 tsp baking soda 1 cup butter (2 sticks) 1/2 cup sugar 1 tsp vanilla 1 cup raisins (I use baking raisins) I add a dash (to taste) of a spice blend that I have from pampered chef. It has cinn. and nutmeg among other ingred. in it. I'm sure they make something similar for the grocery. Preheat oven to 350. Combine flour, baking soda and salt. In large bowl w/ mixer on medium beat butter, brown sugar and sugar until creamed. Beat in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Gradually beat in flour mixture until blended. Stir in oats, raisins and chips. Bake 13-15 minutes til tops are golden. Serves 4 dozen Funday Sunday (we make this year around don't know where it came from. Probably MIL got it from a mag. a long time ago.) base/crust 24 oreos finely crushed (2 1/2 cups) 1/4 cup margarine or butter filling 1/2 gallon mint chocolate chip icecream softened (this can be messy) topping 2 cups powdered sugar 13 oz evap milk 1 tsp vanilla 6 oz (1 cup) semi sweet choc chips 1/2 cup marg/butter in bowl combine cookies and melted butter. Mix well and press lightly on bottom of 13X9 ungreased pan Cut icecream into 1 inch thick slices. Place over crushed cookies. Spread icecream w/ spatula to cover completely. Cover and freeze. Topping in medium saucepan combine sugar, chips, milk and margarine. Bring to boil over med/low heat. Cook 8 minutes (exactly) stiring CONSTANTLY. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Cool 1 hour. Pour over icecream filling, cover and freeze. Word to the wise might want to use a 9X13 pan with a lid. Foil tends to stick to the fudge topping. This isn't a sweet but I grew up w/ this and it reminds me of home and makes the house smell so good when making it I think. Pennsylvania Dutch Potato Filling (My mom made this and I know her mom and grandma also made it. And yes, we are all from PA). 8 medium Potatos 1/4 cup butter 2 slices white bread 2 tblsp minced parsley 1 med onion 1 cup milk 1 large egg 1 tblsp flour salt/pepper to taste Boil potatoes, saute chopped onion in butter until soft and yellow. Drain potatoes and mash using 3/4 cup milk. Mix in onion, butter, bread, flour, egg and parsley. Season w/ salt and pepper. Thin to desired consistency w/ milk. Beat for a minute or two. Put in buttered baking dish. Dot top with butter. Bake 350 for one hour. Hope everyone enjoys...now I am hungry! Edited October 30, 2009 by tlklcox added
JodyLee Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Double Chocolate Pumpkin Cheesecake Crust: 1 1/2 cups purchased chocolate cookie crumbs 1/2 stick (4 Tbsp.) butter, melted Filling: 3 bricks (8 oz each) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese (Neufchatel), softened 1 cup sugar 2 Tbsp. cornstarch 3 large eggs 1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream 2 tsp. vanilla extract 1 cup (6oz) milk-chocolate chips, melted and cooled 1 cup canned 100% pure pumpkin 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice 1 cup (6oz) semisweet chocolate chips, melted and cooled Chocolate Glaze: 3 oz. bittersweet baking chocolate 2 Tbsp. stick butter 1 Tbsp. light corn syrup 1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat an 8-in. springform pan with nonstick spray. Have ready a roasting pan larger than the springform pan. 2. Crust: Put crumbs in a small bowl; stir in butter until evenly moistened. Press firmly over bottom of pan. Bake 8 to 10 minutes until set. Cool on rack. Wrap outside of pan with heavy-duty foil. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees F. 3. Filling: Beat cream cheese, sugar and cornstarch in a large bowl with mixer on medium speed until smooth, scraping sides of bowl several times with a rubber spatula. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, just until blended. Beat in sour cream and vanilla to combine. Divide batter evenly between 3 medium bowls. Stir melted milk chocolate into 1 bowl; pour into crust in an even layer. Whisk pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice into another bowl. Carefully spoon over chocolate layer to cover, then gently smooth into an even layer with an offset spatula. Stir semisweet chocolate into remaining batter. Carefully spoon over pumpkin layer and smooth. 4. Set springform pan in center of roasting pan. Place roasting pan in oven rack and add boiling water to come halfway up sides of springform pan. 5. Bake 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours until set, but center jiggles slightly when shaken. 6. Turn oven off (leave door closed); let cake cool in oven 1 hour (if cake hasn't pulled away from sides of pan, carefully run a thin knife around edge of pan to release cake). Remove foil. Cool cake in pan on a wire rack. Cover; refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. 7. Chocolate Glaze: Stir ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat; cool slightly. 8. Remove pan sides; place cake on serving plate. Spread glaze over top to edge (some may drip down side of cake). Refrigerate until glaze sets.

MsKate Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 These may sound strange, but they're really good: CHIP CHIP COOKIES ½ cup shortening, butter or margarine 1 cup sugar 1 cup brown sugar 2 eggs, well beaten 1 tsp. soda 2 cups flour 2 cups crumbled potato chips 6 oz. butterscotch chips Cream together shortening & sugars.

mausibaer Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Raspberry Desert Sauce 2 bags of frozen raspberries 2 cups of sugar (feel free to start off with less and add to your taste) 1/4 cup each of rum and amaretto (can be exchanged for other liquors or omitted altogether) 1 cinnamon stick Fresh Ground Nutmeg Raspberries go a very large heavy-bottomed pot with enough water to cover them plus at least one additional inch. Don't worry about over diluting the flavor as the sauce must be reduced. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a rolling simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The raspberries should break apart and bleed out their color juices. Separate the liquid from the remaining solids using whatever strainers and filters you have. The goal is to have a relatively clear liquid. I use a 3-step process: Large mesh strainer, fine mesh strainer, then a coffee filter. Return the liquid to a pot and bring back up to a simmer. Add the remaining ingredients and allow to reduce to a light syrup. Check the flavor several times to ensure that it is sweet enough. You may also add some fresh orange peels during the reduction process to give it some extra zip, but they will cause the syrup to get a little cloudy due to their natural oils. I use this as a topping for ice cream dishes, fresh fruit...even pancackes and waffles.
raven20_79 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 My absolute favorite cookie that my mom made all the time. This is where I gain my holiday weight from.

mcwalker Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 I love cranberry sauce at the holidays! I haven't made this exact recipe, but many will do the trick. 4 cups fresh cranberries 1 1/2 cups water 5 whole cloves 5 whole allspice berries 3 cinnamon sticks 2 cups white sugar Place cranberries and water in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Wrap cloves, allspice berries and cinnamon sticks in a spice bag and place in the water with cranberries. Cook until cranberries begin to burst, about 10 minutes. Stir in sugar and reduce heat to low. Continue cooking 5 minutes, or until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Discard spice bag. Chill in the refrigerator 8 hours before serving.

Unwrap the rollos (hardest part of this recipe), and place one Rollo on top of each pretzel. Place cookie sheet in a warmed 325 degree oven for just a few minutes - long enough for the Rollos to melt enough that they stick to the pretzel. Allow to cool, and YUM-MY! You cannot eat just one!

NTBoard Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Every year for Thanksgiving morning I put in a French Toast Casserole that I've prepared ahead of time for our breakfast. Last year we found out my son has a dairy & egg allergy so it threw that breakfast tradition out the door, until I found this recipe that was SUPER yummy & enjoyed by all... Egg-Free, Dairy Free French Toast Casseroleserves 82 T soy margarine, melted1 C vanilla flavored soymilk1/3 C light corn syrup1 t cinnamon (divided)1/4 t salt1/8 C dark molasses1 16 oz loaf artisan or French bread, cut into 1 in cubes Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9x13" baking dish with cooking spray. Combine melted margarine, vanilla soy milk, corn syrup, 1/2 t cinnamon, salt & molasses in a large bowl. Fold bread into mixture so that it absorbs the liquid evenly. Place in prepared baking dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake 15 minutes. Remove foil & bake 15 minutes more. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 t cinnamon over the top. Top with syrup, fruit, or powered sugar. It really was surprisingly good. We look forward to having it again this Thanksgiving. Enjoy!Niccole
