1/2 regular package uncooked bacon, finely diced
1 medium onion, diced
1/4 bunch celery, diced
8 cups milk
4 cups water

Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls





Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls

Time and Yield

·                                 Cook Time: N/A 
·                                 Yield: 75 1-inch balls

Ingredients

·                                 For the balls:
o                                                        2 sticks unsalted butter-melted
o                                                        1 box 10X confectioners' sugar
o                                                        2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
o                                                        1 cup chopped nuts....chop as nutty or as fine as you wish
o                                                        1/2 cup your favorite peanut butter (not chunky)
o                                                        1 teaspoon vanilla flavoring


·                                 For the dip:
o                                                        6 ounces chocolate chips
o                                                        *1/2 stick paraffin wax

Directions

For the balls: Add ingredients in order of recipe into a large bowl. Mix with hands and roll into balls(about 1 inch) and dip. Place balls on cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Chill in refrigerator for about 2 hours. Makes about 75 1 inch balls.
For the dip: DO NOT MICROWAVE!!!! Melt on low heat. ( I use a double boiler). Constantly watch and keep stirring a little as the wax melts. Insert toothpick into ball -- dip in warm chocolate mixture and place on wax paper. I usually let the chocolate drip back into the pan so there won't be a big mass of chocolate around the base of the balls. Allow to harden and place in containers and store in refrigerator. Enjoy a mouth full of goodness.
*Hint: For those of you who are not familiar with the paraffin wax. It is usually found in the grocery store near where the charcoal for grilling is found. It comes in a container with 4 slabs and is easy to cut in half. It calls for a stick but is actually rectangular/ in shape. Paraffin wax is flammable and that is why I use a double boiler but if you use a heavy pot for the chocolate chips and the wax and watch it as you stir it will be fine.

Ruth Tut candy


Ruth Tut Candy


Time and Yield

·                                 Cook Time: Varies 
·                                 Yield: 6 to 7 dozen 1-inch cubes

Ingredients

·                                 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter
·                                 1 cup light brown sugar
·                                 1 cup granulated sugar
·                                 1 cup dark corn syrup
·                                 2 cups (1 pint) heavy cream
·                                 2 cups chopped pecans
·                                 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Generously grease a 9 x 12 x 2-inch pan using 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of the butter.
In a large saucepan, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar, corn syrup, and 1 cup of the cream. Heat until the mixture begins to boil. Slowly stream the remaining 1 cup cream into the mixture, stirring while it's boiling. Attach a candy thermometer to the pan and cook the mixture over medium heat until it reaches 244°. Remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining 1/2 cup butter, the chopped pecans, and the vanilla. Pour the candy into the buttered pan.
Cool the candy in the refrigerator until it is just firm but not hard, about 1 hour. Cut into 1-inch squares. Cut waxed paper into 4-inch squares and wrap each piece of candy individually. Store in the refrigerator. Remove the candy from the refrigerator and allow it to soften slightly before serving. The wrapped candy's flavor is improved by aging in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.

S'more Bars

I have always LOVED to cook and eat s'mores.

Here's what you'll need:

1/2 C. margarine or butter
1/2 C. packed brown sugar
1 C. flour
1/2 C. graham cracker crumbs (about 1/2 a package graham crackers)
2 C. mini marshmallows (or as many as you'd like)
1/2 (12 oz.) pkg. chocolate chips
Beat margarine or butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add combined flour and crumbs; mix well.
Press onto bottom of greased 9 inch square baking pan.
Sprinkle with marshmallows and chocolate chips.
Bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until marshmallows are golden brown.

Just a note: I made these for one of my good friends just after she had a baby. I decided to double the recipe to have some for my family as well. As we were hurrying out the door, so that we wouldn't be late, I was holding my baby in one arm and these treats (shown here) with the other hand. A bit of advice, don't do that! I ended up losing balance between treats and baby and the entire pan came crashing to the floor. There was chocolate and gooey marshmallow and shards of glass EVERYWHERE!! I was so mad that these so yummy treats were a total waste. Good thing I made two so at least my friend was still able to get some!



Apple Pie Bread


Apple Pie Bread

YIELD: 1 loaf
PREP TIME: 30 minutes
COOK TIME: 60 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

For the Batter

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups Gold Medal all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons homemade apple pie spice (see below)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups shredded, peeled apple (about 4 medium or 2 large) (see note below)
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup dried cranberries

For the Streusel Topping

1/4 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon homemade apple pie spice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
2. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the butter on medium-high speed for about 30 seconds. Add in sugars and mix until well combined. Add buttermilk and baking powder; beat until combined. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until thoroughly incorporated. In a medium bowl, combine flour, apple pie spice and salt, whisk until combined. Slowly add the flour mixture to the bowl and mix on low speed until just incorporated. Fold in apples, pecans and cranberries.
3. Spoon batter into prepared pan; spread evenly. Prepare the Streusel Topping.
4. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour and apple pie spice. Using apastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in pecans. Spoon Streusel Topping over the batter, pressing them gently into the batter.
5. Bake for 60 to 65 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
6. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pan. Cool completely on wire rack. Wrap and store overnight before slicing.

NOTES:

- Depending upon the type of apples you use, you may end up with a great deal of liquid after grating the apples. I suggest using only the grated apples, not the liquid that is produced. If necessary, lightly squeeze the apples to release any excess juice before adding them to the batter.
- I have made this recipe using Honey Crisp and Granny Smith apples.
- Raisins and walnuts would be a spectacular addition to this bread.
- You don't have to wait for the loaf to sit overnight before cutting, it just tastes better after the flavors have had a chance to meld.




Apple Pie Spice

YIELD: about 1/3 cup
PREP TIME: 5 minutes

INGREDIENTS:

4 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cardamom

DIRECTIONS:

1. Combine spices in a small bowl, mix well to combine. Store in a small jar or spice container.

NOTES:

- These measurements don't need to be precise. If you prefer more of one spice or less of another, feel free to adjust to your liking.
- If using freshly grated nutmeg, you'll want to decrease the amount a bit as it tends to be be quire a bit stronger than jarred, ground nutmeg.
