Oh my, oh my, how time doth fly!!
It's almost Thanksgiving!
What are your plans for next week?
Who's doing the cooking?
My sweet chef/hubby does pretty much
ALL the cooking.
Thank you, dear.
One of my very favorite sites,
has a yummy recipe for sweet potatoes.
Check out all the other goodness when you visit their site.
Now, my specialty is Cookie baking and Candy making!
Toll House Cookies, & Kraft Microwave Fudge
are a must at every get together my family has!
I like to keep it simple & follow the recipe
on the bag of Nestles Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips,
or just click on the link above
to go directly to their online recipe.
The only change that I make is that I use
Crisco Sticks instead of butter.
I think they taste better!
It also helps to preheat the cookie sheets.
The first batch turns out better that way.
Ok, on to the Fantasy Fudge!
It's super-easy if you make it in the Microwave!
Microwaves vary, so make sure
that you don't overcook it.
I stop the Microwave and give the mixture
a good stir about every 3 minutes,
no more than 11 minutes total.
Then I use the old-fashioned
cold water test to see if it's done.
Just drop about a teaspoonful of the mixture
in a cup of COLD water, if it makes
a soft ball, then it's done!
Then toss in the rest of the ingredients!
I can still see my Mom making "Karo" Fudge at her stove.
Back then, it was a lot hotter
standing over the stove and stirring forever!
Thanks for stopping by!
Here's a little Bing & Rosemary!
Remember to "Count Your Blessings"
on Thanksgiving and every day.
Have a great week!
