White Chocolate and Maple Rice Krispie Squares

Thu, 16 Apr 2009 02:07:58 -0400

This is a yummy variation on the classic kids' treat. I like my rice krispie squares to be heavy on the mallow so if you prefer, feel free to add more rice krispies to the mix! I don't have easy access to good maple syrup this side of the pond so please feel free to adjust that amount too- 2 tablespoons of the fake stuff I get here is about right but you may need less of the real thing! If you want to make less, half of this recipe fits in a loaf tin beautifully. -- posted by Shuzbud

Simple Berries and Cream: No Cooking Involved

Sun, 26 Apr 2009 21:00:56 -0400

When I was a little girl, I used to go pick wild blackberries with my Daddy. I'd get eaten alive with chiggers, but thinking about this yummy dessert made it all worth it. After we got a big container full, we'd drop some off with my Grandmother for a cobbler, but Daddy would keep at least 2 cups out for the 2 of us. This was our little treat!!! Today when I eat it, I still think of that time with my Daddy. Guess Daddy's girls never really grow up! -- posted by CharlieGal

Anzac Day Oaty Biscuits

Fri, 08 May 2009 01:35:29 -0400

I found this recipe for a healthier Anzac Day biscuit on the New Zealand Heart Foundation website. It comes from a program they have done aimed at schools. I was also drawn to it because of the lack of coconut which I was finding in a lot of Anzac Day biscuit recipe. Since I am not a fan of coconut these sound perfect for me. The recipe didn't give a yield. So, I am guessing on that. -- posted by Sarah_Jayne

Strawberry Cream Cheese Snacks

Thu, 28 May 2009 01:44:42 -0400

I was trying to find something to snack on one night, and I remembered reading another recipe about strawberries dipped in brown sugar, so I came up with this. Amounts are approximate, since you really just dip the cut sides of the strawberries in the sugar, and spread cream cheese on crackers... so it depends on how much sugar and cream cheese you like. This is the first recipe I have published on here, mostly because it's the kind of easy thing I like to find on the site and I didn't see anything like it. -- posted by Queen Roachie

Banana Health Muffins

Tue, 16 Jun 2009 01:15:41 -0400

Healthy, tasty and suitable for coeliacs, those with lactose intolerance and vegans alike. Despite their healthiness, these taste delicious and the recipe can be adapted to suit any tastes and i recommend sprinkling the tops with a little muesli and sugar and serving them warm from the oven and drizzled with yoghurt if you are not lactose intolerant. For a nuttier flavour, the vegetable oil can be substituted for nut oil. Chickpea flour can be substituted for rice flour if you don't like the taste. Variations include adding apple, dates, cream cheese, cranberries and raisins to name a few...the possibilities are endless! Enjoy! -- posted by the_allergic_chef

Tropical 7 Layer Twist Bars

What would happen if I threw them together with some pineapple and coconut?", and this is what I came up with ... A refreshing tropical twist on an old favorite. Depending on how big you cut your pieces, you can get about 12 to 16 bars. I also plan on making these in a mini muffin pan, to get some little "tropical tarts" -- posted by "Ratalouille"

This is a modified version of the recipe from Baking: A Commonsense Guide. When they first come out of the oven, they're chewy and delicious. When they cool, they become crisper, ideal for dunking in coffee or tea. (And of course they're still delicious.) I added allspice just because I like it. If you use sweetened coconut, you can probably cut back on the sugar some. -- posted by dreabakes

Kiwi, Strawberry and Grape Juice.

Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:51:44 -0400

I got this recipe from 'The top 100 juices' by Sarah Owen, published by Lifetime Distributors, Castle Hill, Australia. Sarah Owen says "All three fruits in this juice provide a massive infection-fighting boost of vitamin C and can help to shorten the duration of a cold. The kiwi fruit a also contain lutein, a phytonutrient known to reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease and eye disease. Both strawberries and grapes are high in ellagic acid, which neutralizes carcinogens. The tannins, flavones and active compounds in the grapes combine to make them energizing and strengthen the cell walls of blood vessels" You could make more than one serving, and serve with lemonade and ice in a punch bowl for a party if desired. I haven't made this yet, as I don't have a juicer, but if I ever get one, this will be the first juice that I make. Enjoy! :) -- posted by TALIA #3

Summer Camp Gorp

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:12:51 -0400

I used to work in the kitchen of a summer camp back in the day and we would always make this recipe for the kids at snack time and set some out for breakfast. During the breakfast hours I would see some kids pour milk over it and have it as a kind of makeshift cereal. Of course we would make this in tremendous quantities so I've had to do some math and lessen the ingredient amounts needed. So just a quick tip: if you decide to double this recipe, please use 3 large eggs instead of 4 small eggs. Also keep an eye on the oats as they're cooking, as all ovens are different, so they don't burn. -- posted by NapalmFairy

Spooktacular Halloween Pudding Cups

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 14:17:46 -0400

Super fun Halloween treats that the kids are sure to enjoy. Easy to make and look great to!! I got the idea off of another website that used chocolate pudding but I thought using vanilla and dying it orange would be really cool since the pudding and oreos together would be traditional Halloween colors. This recipe can be easily divided in half and so on. For the pudding I used the kind that you cook verses the instant. I think the cooked pudding has a much nicer and thicker consistancy. The amount below for the oreos is a guesstimate because it wouldn't let me put down 1 large package of oreos but either way just one regular package of oreos crushed is what you need. Enjoy! -- posted by mamawheezy

I made this completely by accident, and i love it! I use Yoplait thick and creamy yougurt, i think it gives the drink the best texture, and I also use the condensed frozen juice, welches white grape is the best, but apple also works, depends on how sweet you like it. I also found substituting 1 Delmonte Fruit chiller in polar raspberry tastes better to me than the frozen berries themselves. To each his own. For a healthier smoothie use light yougurt, no sugar added juice, and skim milk. -- posted by Chef #1470073

A 'Chocolate Lovers' dream. :) Moist, chewy, quick to make. What more could we ask for? Toffee!!! I took the liberty of topping these gems off with a sprinkling of toffee bits. Whichever road you decide to take, the trip is very worthwhile. Another winner from the Company's Coming Cookbooks. -- posted by Diana #2

This is one of my favorite Filipino delicacies. :D It's really easy to make! I cook this recipe for special occasions and it's always a hit! :D -- posted by Chef #1488745

Rich Peanut Butter Fudge (Gluten-Free, Vegan)

Wed, 23 Dec 2009 14:37:32 -0500

Most of the time I bake with healthy, natural ingredients and sugars. Not for this. Delicious and perfect to satisfy those who (a) love peanut butter or (b) love candy or (c) love both. I'm of the "c" category. Cooking time is cooling time. -- posted by Laurie150

Blueberry Muffins à La Alton Brown (Good Eats on Food Net

Mon, 28 Dec 2009 16:46:08 -0500

We tried this recipe because I was craving having blueberry streusel scones (# 244646) again. However, I am trying to cut down on my saturated fat and cholesterol, so we looked for something to fill that baked goods craving without blowing my daily saturated fat limit, and Alton Brown is often a decent place to start. We used whole wheat pastry flour with some flax meal thrown in for good measure, frozen blueberries allowed to thaw slightly, and a silicon muffin tin. They were somehow dense and light at the same time, and had an interesting buttermilk note (we assume from the yogurt). Also, Alton says muffins are really more like pancakes than cupcakes! -- posted by Michelle from Central Time

Coconut Date Granola Bars

Fri, 08 Jan 2010 17:30:17 -0500

This is a wonderfully satisfying treat packed with oats, nuts, and fruits. When they first come out of the oven, they may be fragile and slightly crumbly. Make sure to let them cool before cutting, and they will soon become firm, chewy granola bars. -- posted by sszz

Whole Wheat Applesauce Cookies

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:01:11 -0500

My favorite cookie recipe! These are moist, chewy and delicious. Because most of the sweetness and the moisture comes from the applesauce rather than fat or sugar, not to mention the whole-wheat flour, I don't feel guilty about sneaking one or two of these for breakfast! -- posted by CorianneW

Coffee Snow Cream

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 12:19:36 -0500

I saw this recipe made on "5 Ingredient Fix" with Claire Robinson on the Food Network. It looks different than other Snow Cream recipes posted here so I thought I'd post it. I haven't tried it yet because I couldn't find espresso powder at the store last weekend, but I will be trying it soon. -- posted by BakerNoMo

Sweet and Simple Couscous With Fruit

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 02:25:12 -0500

I adapted this from a recipe I saw on Everyday Italian. My local WinCo carries "Tri-Color" or "Rainbow" couscous, which I like for the aesthetics. For fruit, any dried fruit will do, but I like to use a combination of dried cherries, cranberries, blueberries, apples, and apricots. The flavors work really well together, and--again--the aesthetics are very pleasing. With smaller fruits like blueberries and cranberries, you can leave them whole. This recipe tastes great--but uniquely different--both warm and cold. -- posted by Cookin' Cop

Roasted Cumin Cashews

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 17:18:52 -0500

We love these cashews. They are so good. I usually have to make 5-6 batches every year for Christmas, but have not been able to for a couple years, as I had lost the recipe. While moving this fall, I found my recipe, so I am posing this here so that I won't miss place it again. They are a nice change from just plain salted cashews. -- posted by mlhuston

Maple Cinnamon Pinwheels

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:14:27 -0500

These swirly twirls of perfection combine three of my favorite things in a cookie: cinnamon, rich maple/brown sugar sweetness and a buttery, short texture. Found in the Women's Weekly "Quick-mis Biscuits and Slices". I had Wholemeal Plain Flour on hand and I would recommend it. -- posted by Chef #1315010

Orange Pineapple Sorbet!

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 12:30:39 -0500

I was making orange sorbet one day when I saw a can of pineapple in my pantry! I decided to add them in and it turned out fantastic! cooking time includes ice cream machine time, time spent in freezer, and chill time! -- posted by Smileekid
