The purpose of this recipe newsletter is
to post requests and replies from our members and to post
all their great tried and tested (TNT) recipes.
In the December 6th newsletter, Sally from PA asked for a
recipe for home made noodles.
This is my granny's recipe and was requested at every family
gathering I can remember. It's
easy and good!
Granny's
Noodles
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
3 tablespoons melted margarine
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Mix, roll, cut (this was my grandma's description! ) These
noodles do not have to dry, you
can cut them and throw them right into the boiling broth, or
you can let them sit a while, it
doesn't matter. I cut these noodles very thin, cause they do
puff up when cooked.

This is for Sue who was wondering about using
colored sugars on the
Snickerdoodle cookies.
I made these a variety of ways. You can make a big batch of
Snickerdoodle dough and
divide the dough into two before blending in two different
food colors. You can make some
cookies rolled in the cinnamon sugar mixture. I also use the
dough its usual shade, roll into
balls and flatten on the cookie sheet with a fork, like you
would a peanut butter cookie. I
then sprinkle them with regular sugar and with colored
sugars. I didn't know if the colored
sugars would burn more easily on the cookie sheet, so just
sprinkled the tops. They made a
great tasting sugar cookie. I always had plenty of variety
in my Christmas cookies, but did
this for my grandkids tea party. One cookie make in several
ways made a pretty cookie
platter for them.

For all those holiday buffets, if you
substitute a pickled okra for the
pickle in the Ham and
Pickle Roll-ups, you will have a very pretty star in the
center of the roll-up when you cut
them as well a very pleasant tangy taste.

Has anyone made fudge using Splenda? I have a friend who
makes it-but she sells to the
public so I don't think she would give me the recipe. I
would appreciate your input. Thanks,

more recipes were added Sunday
Hi Nancy, Jan in Mo 12-4-09 N/L asked about reduced fat &
sugar in recipes. I've used
Splenda and other artificial powdered sweetners and either
low fat or usually skimmed milk in
my recipes, (DH is diabetic and I try to watch my
cholesterol). Have not had bad results
with either.
Margaret, Tulsa
P.S. I also use Heart Healthy Bisquick when possible.
In response to Sue in the Saturday, December 5 newsletter,
the Chocolate Creme Drop
recipe is the same one Chris, NM, sent in
that was published just below your question. Chris
had 3 recipes and the first one is the one I have attached
to my creme drops. Chris' recipes
are half way down the page.
Chocolate Drop Fudge
1 bag of Old Fashion Chocolate Drops (white filling inside)
1 C peanut butter
1 Tbsp butter
Handful of chocolate chips
Place in microwave safe bowl and heat on high for 2 minutes
(microwaves vary). Mix together

clump a little. Pour into 8x8 pan and
let cool at room temperature.

In the 12/3/09
newsletter Lolo in KY requested appetizers that
were non dairy. Here are my
suggestions. All of which are always very popular;
meatballs in various sauces,
various types
of chicken wings, little smokies, stuffed mushrooms, chips
with salsa, party crackers or party bread with ham salad,
various snack mixes, such as Chex Mix, white trash and puppy
chow,
vegetable tray with a non dairy dip, chocolate covered
strawberries, fresh fruit tray with non
dairy dip, chocolate covered pretzels, egg rolls and various
nut mixes. Recipes for each of
these items has appeared in past newsletters; let us know if
you need help finding any of
them. You may wish to check out www.
dairyfreecooking.about.com for additional

Good Sunday morning, Nancy,
I am responding to two requests that were in the December
5th Newsletter -one for Mary
Ann in Upstate NY, who wanted a
cake flour substitution recipe, and
the other for Fran in
Paradise CA, who wants to make a chocolate cake using her
white cake recipe. I have used
both of these substitutions with good success. AtlantaPat
Cake Flour Substitution:
In a measuring cup, combine ¼ cup (2 Tablespoons) of
cornstarch,
and 3/4 all-purpose flour. Sift with your dry ingredients.
Then continue with your cake
recipe as usual.
Make a White Cake Chocolate:
Combine 1 small package (3-3/4 oz) of instant chocolate
pudding mix with your dry ingredients, and continue with
your recipe. This will make your
white cake chocolate, and will be moist like the pudding in
a mix cakes.
You could use 3 squares of chocolate, but you will need to
add sugar, cornstarch and salt to
keep your cake light and not bitter. I have had the best
results with the chocolate pudding
mix.
Thanks Nancy. And you are so nice to share - but I
appreciate you not sharing the snow
with us in Atlanta.. We were suppose to have snow yesterday,
but we only had cold
weather with blusterly winds. A sincere thanks for gathering
the information and providing
this wonderful newsletter for us all these years. I enjoy it
so much! AtlantaPat
In Saturday's NL, Dec. 5, Joyce in KY asked for a

the the notes to the side. Of course, you make it however
you like. I hope you enjoy it. BTW, you said you have
learned how to make pie crust. Doyou have a secret you want
to share?

Just a quick comment for those that don't know the
difference in
stuffing and dressing.
If it
is cooked inside the bird, it is stuffing. If it is cooked
in a pan by itself, it is dressing. I was
well into adulthood before I learned the difference. Merry
Christmas all.

I looked through all the cookie recipes in my falling-apart
1950s Betty Crocker Cookbook and did not find a
chocolate-pineapple cookie recipe.
However, searching "chocolate pineapple cookie recipe"
brought up the recipe for a frosted chocolate pineapple
cookie that sounded like what you are looking for.

For Sue,
Yes, you can roll snickerdoodles in colored sugars, or frost
them. I am a celiac, & I use a
gluten free recipe for snickerdoodles. We always sprinkle
them with colored sugars, etc.

Hi Nancy and all cooks and crafters. In today's TipNut.com
they have instructions for an ice
wreath that would be easy to make. and the birds would like
the berries when it melts.
Margaret,
With biscuits (and scones, for that matter) they’re the best
when you first bake them. I tried
a stale one 24 hours later (they beckoned me) and it wasn't
so bad but I chalk that up to
them being extra-awesome from the get-go. You don't need to
make them at the last minute
because biscuits freeze excellently unbaked. Make them
whenever you have time, flash
freeze them and store them in a freezer bag for a later day
or freeze them right on your
buttered or parchment-lined baking sheet so they're ready to
go when you are. You can bake
them still frozen, they'll just need an extra few minutes in
the oven.

Hi Nancy. Does anyone know what milk sausage is? I would
like to try these.
Florence, IL

from
1 to 1-1/2 inches in diameter.

Comment
Here is the recipe I use for Sausage Balls. It is posted in
the Bisquick section of the site.
Bisquick Recipes
http://www.nancyskitchen.com/bisquick-recipes/
Sausage Balls
1/2 cup shredded cheese
1 pound Jimmy Dean sausage
2 cups Bisquick
Mix Bisquick with cheese, then mix in sausage. Roll into
small balls. Bake at 400 degrees until
brown, 5 to 10 minutes.

Nancy, I'm not sure if I'm responding correctly as I never
have before, but I wanted to
respond to Margo/Boston's request for Milk Crackers in the
11/27 newsletter. I, too, use
them for stuffing, but Nabisco doesn't make them anymore.
However, Stop & Shop carries
another brand, I think it's Heritage House. It's in a bright
red box and is usually on the top
shelf. They're a little thinner than the Nabisco, but they
taste the same. I was so happy to
find them. I hope this helps.
