Chocolate Fudge...sort of

Mon, 22 Oct 2001 11:08:21 -0400

This is a modification on Chef Lali 's chocolate frosting, I discovered it makes great fudge if you boil it and then chill it in a mould! Thanks lali! Pour it over crumbled cookies for something crunchy and chocolaty :)) chef lali's page is http://www.recipezaar.com/browse/getchef.zsp?id=15609 copy and paste the link to see it in your browser...her cake is delicious! -- posted by Samuel Holden

The REAL S'more!

Tue, 06 Aug 2002 19:31:50 -0400

I could not tell Sarah, "No S'more for you at your birthday party" just because she is diabetic. So I sat down and figured up the carbohydrates for her so she could have one if she took extra insulin. My calculations came up with 30 carbohydrates in one S'more, so now she will know for future use. Now lets see what the nutrition facts are. lol -- posted by Sarah J

Reindeer Noses

Fri, 03 Oct 2003 20:00:25 -0400

This is a fun treat for elementary school children to give to their classmates at Christmas time or at a holiday party as a party favor. You can give these to any child. Kids just love it. Adults do too. When I gave them to a K-1 class 2 years ago, the kids tried to stick the "Reindeer Noses" on their own nose. It was so cute!! You can print the poem out using a card printing program. Use the Business Cards format and select the one that has 10 business cards per sheet of paper. Find a Reindeer image to put on them too. Use red and green font making one word red and the next word green like I have done. I don't know how many packets each bag of red hot candies will make. Have your child/children help you make these to save time. They will love doing it. Time is approximate depending on how many you make. -- posted by AuntWoofieWoof

Another Microwave Fudge Recipe

Sat, 10 Apr 2004 20:00:26 -0400

I've tried a number of recipes for making fudge from the microwave, but after experimenting, I've found this one that I came up with to work great, quickly and easy. I've tossed boiling fudge with microwave fudge into one recipe. What I love about this recipe that I came up with is that you don't have to use a drop of water, and you don't have to add any sugar to it. I'm not sure about using semi sweet chocolates, but the sweet chocolates worked great for me. -- posted by Joseph Smith

I got this from a Chef at cooking school. I have no idea where she got it. She wrote it down off the top of her head. I am not sure how much it makes. Or how long. I just guessed on how long it would take to boil the syrup and knead the marzipan. -- posted by tasb

Easiest ever, yummiest ever chocolate fudge. Well it's also the only chocolate fudge recipe I've ever used! This is a melt-in-your-mouth "hard" fudge - easy enough for kids to make (with appropriate supervision). I know I made it lots as a kid :) -- posted by Andrea-Oz

Sugared Peanuts

Fri, 02 Dec 2005 15:05:13 -0500

This used to be my family's one Xmas tradition. Then we all got healthy. *sigh* I do miss these.... We made these in an electric fypan. But you could probably use a large frypan on the stove top. The cooking time is a guess. But it never seemed to be all that long. Double quantities work well - as long as you have a large enough frypan. -- posted by Andrea-Oz

Bride & Groom Apples

Wed, 13 Sep 2006 21:36:44 -0400

Are you looking for something special for a wedding or shower? This apple couple is adorable and would make a cute edible centerpiece. Use two jumbo apples for a bridal couple or small apples for wedding favors. A firm, crisp apple works best for this project. It is also helpful if you look for apples that "sit" up properly. You will also need the following supplies: 1 12" circle of white tulle, 1 20" length of white satin 3/4-inch ribbon, 1 20" length of black satin 3/4-inch ribbon, and tacky glue -- posted by Susie D

A fun candy treat to make for a themed party - to pull kids in and inspire imagination! From the RR archives. ;) Maybe for a Japanese dinner party when the kiddos may not eat sushi with you--this might help them participate for dessert? Or just a fun kids party--or even Halloween. ;) I haven't tried these yet, so I guessed on the times, but will update once I do. I am a slow one in the kitchen though!! *Increase amounts according to number of people/portions desired* -- posted by Mommy Diva

Chocolate/Espresso Pour Icing

Mon, 14 Apr 2008 01:34:11 -0400

This cake icing is perfect for a 9x13 inch cake left in the pan. It is rich with chocolate flavor and married with one of chocolate's natural partners, espresso. I added instant espresso powder to the milk called for in the recipe, but I suppose if you wanted to omit the milk, you could just add the equivalent of freshly brewed espresso with it's exquisite crema. Or even go total latte.Getting the espresso flavor in there is the key. -- posted by Citruholic

Irish Potatoes (Candy Potatoes)

Thu, 12 Mar 2009 14:01:04 -0400

No, there are no potatoes in these addictive little candies. They are oblong shaped and rolled in cinnamon to resemble cute little potatoes! They are a tradition in our area and they are scrumptious. We wait all year for St. Patrick's Day so we can scarf these cuties down. Try them, you'll find yourself wishing you had made more. You will probably have to hide them if you want to have any left for St. Patrick's Day! That's what I do. -- posted by Realtor by day, Chef by night
