O.K. I'll start it.

I don't have any right now but I will tomorrow. It seemed like everyone thought it was a good idea so we will see what happens

Garlic Cookies

10 Cloves Garlic (Elephant Garlic is milder)
1/2 Cup Honey
1 Cup Margarine (Reduce this if going to add Honey to batter see below)
1 Cup Brown Sugar
2 Whole Eggs
1 Tsp Vanilla
2 1/2 Cups Flour
1 Tsp Baking Soda
1 Tsp Salt
2 Cups Chips (Chocolate or Butterscotch)

Drop garlic cloves in boiling water (cooking makes garlic milder and softer)
boil 5mi
Peal chop and soak in honey 20min

Cream marg/sugar/eggs/vanilla
Combine flour/bakingsoda/salt
Add to creamed stir in chips

Drain garlic & add to batter (unclear whether to add garlic or honey)
Blend well
Drop by TBLS on ungreased baking sheet
Bake until browned 375º Cool on racks

Note:Since the original directions did not clarify whether to add the drained garlic
or the garlic flavored honey after draining the garlic out--experiment!
Adding the whole honey and garlic mix makes a sticky softer cookie.

I've heard of Garlic Cookies before, but they were for your pets .

... still, might have to try it.

Ok, it's apple time where I come from so... bring on the apple pie... and make it snappy

For the pastry;
You'll need enough for a 8" or 9" two crust pie.

2/3 cups plus 2 Tbsp. shortening or just 2/3 cups lard
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp.salt
4-5 Tbsp. cold water... I put ice in my water.

For a 8" or 9 one crust "pie;

1/3 plus one 1 Tbsp. shortening or 1/3 cup lard.
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2-3 Tbsp. cold (ice) water

Cut the shortening into the flour and salt until the bits of shortening are about pea size. Sprinkle in the cold water a tablespoon at a time. Toss with a fork until the flour is moist and it just stick together, but without being sticky. Divide it in half and then chill in the refridgerator for a half hour or so. Chilling the crust is important.

Now for the apples. Peel and core about 8 or 9 cups of apples. I know most people have their favorite types of apples they like to use. I use Cortland for baking. Always... lol. Cut them into slices and chunks. Add to that...

3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg (sometimes I skip the nutmeg. I don't like it much LOL)
just a dash of salt...and stir it all up.

I like to also make a one crust pie too. I have to have a bit extra so I have enough for the edges. The kids like the left-over crust. I'll roll it out and spread butter, sugar and cinnamon over it. Then I cut it in strips and roll them up and make little cinnamon rolls with them. Yummy while you wait for the pie to bake.
But first finish the pie. LOL Roll out half the chilled dough on a floured surface. Get it quite thin. Then loosen it up and roll it onto the roller and unroll it onto the pie plate. Get it all smooth and poke a few holes in the crust.
Then roll out the top layer the same way. Put the apples in the pie plate and then cover it with the top layer. Cut vents in the top layer. OK, This is the hard part for me. Trim the edges and then seal it up. Sometimes it looks like a mess when I get it done. There won't be any left-over tho.

And that's how you make apple pie LOL OK now rescan with HjT and post a new log please.

with this hungry bunch there will be No Leftovers, not after the workout on those HJTs. My recipes are comin', I promise.

Meanwhile, Pandy, you get The Apple Prize!!!! and a BIG for that recipe.

Aww Sheesh phawgg I'm 'ing here. LOL tee hee

Here is another one...

Apple Goodie

For the topping:
1 cup quick oats
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup flour
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine

Mix it all together and set it aside. For the apples you need about 7-8 cups all peeled and sliced up. Add some sugar and cinnamon to your own liking. Bake it for 30 min. @ 350.

Easy as pie

Everything looks great so far!

This is one of my faves! (Wow, great excuse to use the 'chef' smilie!)

Butter Mochi

3 cups sugar
1 box Mochiko Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
4 large Eggs

Soften the butter at room temperature, or put in the microwave for 30 seconds. Mix together the butter and sugar (low speed for an electric mixer). Then, add Mochiko, baking powder, vanilla, eggs, coconut milk, and regular milk. Turn the blender to medium (or high if there's no medium) and let the blender smooth out all the lumps.

Lasagne

1 lb. hamburger
1 tbsp. oregano
1 tbsp. dried basil
1 tsp salt
2 cups tomatoes
1-12 oz. can tomato paste

Brown the hamburger and drain it, then add the next 5 ingredients. Simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Cook 6 slices of lasagne noodles in salted water, drain.

3 cups Ricotta or cottage cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp. dried parsley
2 beaten eggs
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp pepper

1 lb. Mozarella cheese

Combine the above ingredients, except the mozarella. Coat the bottom of your 13x9x2" pan with some of the meat sauce to prevent sticking. Place 3 noodles on top of that, cover with the half of your ricotta, then half of the meat sauce, then half of your mozarella. Repeat those layers. Bake at 375f for 30 minutes. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. If there is any left at all it will be even better the next day. I usually double this recipe so there will be left-overs. LOL!

Ok, looks like i'm really not alone here! I thought that cooking PC techs were a rarety! My lovely wife told me it was strange that a PC tech like me loves to cook. She has Pampered Chef parties for me so I can get stuff from them. We're having one in August! Last time we had one, we bought $50 worth of stuff, but the rep made $950 in sales. This meant we got LOTS of free stuff! I ended up with over $500 in new cooking toys! If you cooks out there have feiends who love to cook, I recommend you have one of these parties!

Pampered Chef

P.S. I got a Salmon recipie and a recipie for Chicken Lasagna Alfredo i'll get to you! I'm at work right now!

Ok for all you simple people like me who want something to eat in less than 3 minutes. You'll love this recipe.

Yano's Bowl

Items needed
-Good sized Bowl
-Your favorite brand of Cereal (I prefer Cheerios)
-Milk
-Sugar (only if you like gettin' hyper....hehe)
-Spoon

To make Yano's Bowl, gently place the bowl on the counter and fill the bowl about 3/4 with cereal. Add a little bit of milk until your cereal starts to "float." Once it floats, add about 2 spoon fulls of sugar. (I prefer adding about 10, but thats just me). Now stir it all up gently, with your spoon.

Serving
Serves: 1 (depending on how many bowls you have)
To serve cereal just place the bowl on the table and sit down and use your spoon to dip up a nice size amount of cereal and place in your mouth and enjoy.

This is one of my all time snacks at night and breakfasts.

Warning: Do not eat the bowl. BC and yanowhiz are not responsible for anyone attempting this recipe. We are also not responsible for any injuries, accidents, and or deaths. Please attempt with caution. Please do not consult us about modifying this recipe, this is provided as-is. We do not encourage any altering activity at all.

I spent $50 on the "Cereal Cookbook"

Woot no Spoon required. Last time i tried to eat one of these bowl things i almost drowned!

Why?? "spoon" wasn't mentioned in the Items needed!

Edit:
You forgot to mention DO NOT EAT BOWL! it gives some wicked indigestion

HAHAHA! Yan! I am really laughing here.. Dang that is so funny. hehe I can't wait to try it out. LMAO

*I love Cheerios*

efizzer. LOL I know about Pampered Chef.. I have the pizza cutter. I go thru pizza cutters very quickly. I think I may have finally found one that will hold up well with my heavy usage. lol

Koan has 12 # pizza (pitza) cutters for sale or rent.... (They never need sharpening.)

(Koan did tell Yano that this was a good ?recipe... Nice write up there Yano!)

Ok I fixed it. Enjoy!

Also I added a little help.

Caws-Wedi-Pobi (Welsh Rarebit)

Probably the most well-known of all Welsh snacks although if you were to look it up in Fowler's English usage you would see that it claims that the dish is not of Welsh origin, there is no rabbit in it and the toast is not rare. Full marks to Fowler's for splitting hairs, or is it hares?

Ingredients:
· half a pound of cheese, grated
· 1 tsp. dry mustard
· 4 tbsp. milk
· 4 slices of fairly thickly sliced bread
· 1 tsp. butter
· 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
· salt and pepper to taste
· 2 tsp. flour
· 2 tbsp beer (optional)
· tomato wedges and parsley, to garnish (optional)

Cooking Instructions:
1. After or while toasting the bread, heat the grated cheese gently in a saucepan until it melts
2. Stir in the other ingredients
3. A little beer can be added to the sauce if desired
4. Pour the cheese sauce over the toast and place under a grill until a golden brown
5. Garnish with tomato wedges and parsley

OK.

1 can 11oz Campbell's Nacho Cheeze
1 can 11oz Campbell's Cream of mushroom
1 can 11oz Campbell's Cream of celery
1 bunch green onions (shallot)
1 8oz fresh mushrooms
1 cup of diced yellow onions
1/2 pint Heavy Whipping cream
spices of your choice
1lb peeled medium shrimp (20-24 ct.)
1lb Crawfish peeled tails
8oz crab meat
1 Salmon steak per person
Angel hair pasta or wild brown rice

Sautre onions, green onions, and fresh mushrooms till wilted and tender. Add cheeze, cream of mushrrom, cream of celery, and heavy whipping cream and stir together till smooth. Add spices of choice.
Place a little oil (olive) in a skillet and heat till smoke just starts showing. Place seasoned salmon steaks face down in very hot skillet for 3 to 4 minutes , reducing the heat to keep from burning ,keeping the salmon moving in the skillet. Turn over and finish cooking to taste.
Once sauce has been cooking till smooth add shrimp, crawfish, and crab meat cooking for about 7 to 10 minutes or till shrimp are pink. As the cook you can sample .
When salmon and sauce are done, place the salmon on a large plate with pasta or rice next to it. Ladle sauce over salmon and pasta or rice. serve with bread of choice (I like the Texas Toast).
This should take 45 mins. to fix, if the ingredent are ready to use.
Serves...alot.

That sounds absolutly delicious and scrumptious!!
Thanks! Acklan

I have more. But you will have to wait. A tip thought. Instead cooking your turkey at 425° , reduce it to 300°. 10lbs @ 300° for 5 hours. I only use 3 cups of orange juice in a covered pan for 4 hours then uncovered for 1 hour. The white meat will be as moist as the dark. You can't burn it either. I left one on for 7 hour so I could go to mass. It just got better.

A huge favorite!!!

EGGNOG RECIPES
~~~~~~~~~~~

Basic Non-alcoholic Eggnog
12 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 quart cream
to taste vanilla
dash of nutmeg

Seperate eggs at room temp. Beat yolks till creamed with about half of sugar, whites till peaked then add other half of sugar. Beat cream till stiff. Then fold all together.

Add vanilla to taste - but remember that a little bit of vanilla goes a long way.

Place into containers keep in refrigerator for at least one day. Shake before serving.
==================================
Orange Non-alcoholic Eggnog Float
4 eggs
6 tablespoons sugar
5 1/2 cups fresh orange juice, chilled
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 quart vanilla ice cream
1 quart ginger ale, chilled

Beat the eggs and the sugar until light (no separation necessary here). Stir in the orange and the lemon juice. Place small scoops of ice cream in the punch bowl. Pour

the ginger ale against the sides (inside, of course) of the bowl (this is done to preserve as much of the carbonation as possible). Add the orange juice picture slowly,

stirring gently. Serve immediately. This will make about 30 servings.
==================================
Eggless Eggnog
8 cups milk
1 3 oz package of French Vanilla Instant pudding
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp of nutmeg

In a large bowl, mix the pudding with 1 cup of the milk. When pudding is formed, add in the remaining ingredients and mix very well. Chill.
=====================================
Rich Eggnog! - Recipe 1

6 Large eggs
3/4 c Sugar
1 1/2 c Brandy
1/2 c Rum
4 c Milk
4 c Cream
1/2 c Icing sugar
Nutmeg to sprinkle

Separate the yolks from the whites of the eggs. Beat the yolks slowly while simultaneously adding the sugar; do this until the mixture is pale and golden. Now slowly

add in the brandy and rum, then beat in the milk and half the cream.

Set aside until just before serving, then whisk the egg whites until stiff and fold them into the eggnog mixture. Whip the remaining cream and icing sugar until thick. Top

each glass of eggnog with whipped cream and a shake of nutmeg. This yields eight servings.
============================
Eggnog! - Recipe 2

Basic Versatile Nog
6 seperated
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 quarts thick cream
1 1/4 tumblers whiskey, brandy or rum
Dashes of cinnamon or nutmeg

Beat egg yolks and sugar together until they are senseless (or lemon-colored). Set aside while you beat the egg-whites stiff followed by some harshly thrashed cream.

Dump all this into the yokes along with your choice of liquor. Then chill.
===================================
There are many variations possible on the recipes given, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla are spices that can be utilized in varying quantities. Different liquors can be used

in conjunction with eggnog, rum, brandy and whiskey are not the only possibilities.

===================================
Wassail (not a NOG but with egg)
Wassail was originally not a drink, but a practice of carroling. In Merry old England carrolers would bring a cup with them, and, as they sang before the homes of wealthy

citizens, their mugs would be filled with a hot spiced ale, often with a roasted apple slice floating in it.

This recipe is a variation on that ancient theme.

1 bottle burgundy or claret
6 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 cloves
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon mace
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups sugar

6 baked apples


Heat the bottle of red wine. Meanwhile separate the eggs. Beat the yokes and whites separately, then fold both together (egg whites should be stiff). Put spices in

water and heat for afew minutes to release flavor.

Now pour all into a punch bowl along with baked apples. Serve warm.

TOAST

1. Put bread into toaster.
2. Toast to taste.
3. Add butter to taste.

NOTES:

• The recipe above is for one slice of toast. If two slices are desired, double the recipe.
• You can change the amount of toasting done to your bread by moving the selector to a higher or lower setting. (This selector is found on the front of most toasters).
• You may also choose to add more toppings, such as jelly or sugar. Feel free to experiment!
• I have found it best to remove toast from toaster before applying butter, or at least unplug the toaster beforehand.

mmmmmm, toast!

Stuffed French Toast, For 2

Made this yesterday morn for my honey. UMMM good.. Got it from Rachel Ray

1 firm, ripe banana
3/4 cup half-and-half
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
4 (1-inch thick) slices day-old challah or brioche
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Confectioners' sugar for dusting

Accompaniment: Warm maple syrup
Cut banana into 1/4-inch thick slices. In a bowl, whisk together half-and-half, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cut bread slices horizontally almost in half, leaving 1 edge intact. Stuff each pocket with 4 to 6 banana slices (do not overstuff). In a baking dish just large enough to hold bread slices in one layer, arrange slices and pour custard over them. Soak slices, turning them over once or twice to allow bread to absorb all liquid, about 15 minutes.
In a 12-inch non-stick skillet melt butter over low heat until foam subsides and cook slices until golden, about 5 minutes on each side.
Dust French toast with confectioners' sugar and serve with syrup.

MONKEY BRAIN

Legends have traditionally been passed down orally and it is no different with the Live Monkey Brain legend.

The following is the universal recipe for this legend:

Take one (1) living monkey. Just eating monkey brain stew is not particularly interesting or shocking.
Strap beneath special table with hole in center. The monkey must be strapped beneath a table with its head poking up through a hole.
Bop monkey on the head, scoop and serve. The diners usually deliver the fatal blow themselves with hammers, the skull is sawed off and the brains are scooped out with spoons

I may add that this is more or less practiced in asia, the monkey needs to be alived or just killed in order to keep freshness.

Basic Elephant Stew

1 elephant
50 lbs. salt
25 lbs. pepper
2 rabbits

Cut elephant in equal small bite size pieces. This should take about 2 weeks.
Add enough brown gravy to cover. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Cook over kerosene stove about 4 weeks at 465 degrees.
This will serve about 3800 persons. If more are expected, add 2 rabbits.
But do this only if necessary, as most people do not like hares in their stew.
