Gporter34 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 butterfinger cake, pumpkin pie, pecan pie, sunshine cake, pineapple cream cheese pie, I could go on and on but I won't.lol
Kandy Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 butterfinger cake yumm, this is what my DH wanted for his groom cake. Everytime you got the cake out of the pan it would fall because of the weight of the cake... but it is soooooooo good. We ended up with a german chocolate cake.
Gporter34 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I love that stuff.lol BTW, Kandy, made your pies the other night and they were a huge hit. Thank you again.

treasure60 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I make chocolate covered cherries, sugar cookies and peanut brittle. Decorating the sugar cookies with the grandchildren puts me in the holiday spirit.
alimfp Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Homemade pies and the main course (usually turkey).

fingerlakesmom Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 My recipe isn’t the same as Gumballs. Frying pan cookies are what a lot of people fall no bake I think LOL They have ( can’t list amount right now as the recipe is buried downstairs and I am up) Coco Sugar (white) Evaporated milk Butter Quick oats Vanilla Raisons if you like them YUCK YUCK YUCK You cook everything but oats in a frying pan when it hits rapid boil, boil 2 minutes then take off quickly add oats and then drop on wax paper/counter what ever works
starshine Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I make Peanut Butter fudge, Christmas cookies, no bake peanut butter cookies, and chocolate peanut butter pie. Of course I love Pumpkin pie with lots of Whipped Cream also!
erh12275 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Gosh I haven't had a popcorn ball in YEARS. The things I crave most are things that I don't get anymore...like my ex mom n laws strawberry pretzel dessert...or my grandmas cooking. Guess I am gonna have to start my own family traditions. Maybe I will get some ideas from this thread???
eve Posted October 31, 2005 Author Posted October 31, 2005 I absolutely agree! I can only eat the Cello (I think they're called) brand..yep that's what they are called :D
