[#1hoosierfan]

Meriweather, made these for a family Christmas party. And I put some in some cookie tin presents as well.

They were a hit at the party & part of a present - thank you.

(And listened to your sage advice re: timing.)

Didn't bake anything but grilled up some chicken thighs, seasoned with Montreal Steak Seasoning and steamed broccoli for the family tonight

More boiled than baked, but I made my mom's chocolate peanut butter oatmeal cookies this morning:

These look like the Moose Mounds we make.....cooked on the stove and dropped on waxed or parchment paper.


MOOSE MOUNDS

1 stick butter or margarine
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup of cocoa powder
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp of vanilla
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
3 cups quick oats
Waxed Paper


Melt butter/margarine in saucepan. Add cocoa powder, sugar and milk and bring to a boil. Let boil 90 seconds, slowly stirring all the time. Add vanilla and stir. Turn off heat and add peanut butter, stirring until melted and creamy. Stir in oatmeal. Quickly drop by tablespoon full onto a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper. Will firm up when cool and can then be removed.

Enjoy!!!

Merry Christmas everyone! This morning I made sausage balls, apple turnovers (Natasha's Kitchen), Egg and cheese sliders on Kings Hawaiian rolls. My husband grilled 3 lbs. of bacon on the grill for breakfast.

Yesterday was peanut butter balls, brickle (toffee) and banana bread. I can honestly say I tired of baking for awhile!

I made Monkey Bread this morning also! It was a nice treat before presents.

I baked oatmeal cookies, chocolate chip cookies, cajeta brownies and gingerbread cookies on Christmas Eve.

Merry Christmas to this thread of Dis bakers!

P.S. My son made Santa Brie for our appetizer board. It’s just so cute!

Pepper-dill bread, but it was made in my breadmaker with a dark crust. Served warm slices with my homemade seafood gumbo with lump crabmeat and jumbo shrimp in a very flavorful roux base.

Welllll my gingerbread buche de Noel was definitely in the top five of the ugly cake contest . Didn’t travel well and all the meringue mushrooms were properly smooshed. Fortunately it still tasted good according to others. Being highly critical I felt the sponge was too dense and will not use rye flour again at least not a 50% proportion. The adventure with rye flour isn’t over though; next pastry attempt will be “nonnettes“ which are traditionally made with rye.

I made Trail's End bread pudding with the mandatory praline sauce. Yummy as well as nostalgic.

Where did you get your rye flour? I can't find it in any of my local grocery stores.

KA now sells four varieties online:

I went with the classic medium but might have used one of the others had I seen them.

Made cinnamon rolls this morning. I have been using the America's Test Kitchen Skillet Cinnamon rolls RECIPE and they consistently come out great!

It’s snowing here so I planned to stay in today and canned 12 jars of pasta sauce.
