Title: Blind Date Cookies
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 30 servings

30 lg Pitted dates
30 lg Walnuts; halves
1 1/4 c All-purpose flour
1/4 ts Salt
1/4 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Baking soda
4 tb Butter
1/2 ts Vanilla extract
3/4 c Light brown sugar; firmly
-packed
1 Egg
1/2 c Sour cream
Glaze:
4 tb Butter
1 c Confectioner’s sugar
1/2 ts Vanilla extract
2 tb Milk; up to 3 t

Recipe by: Maida Heater’s Book of Great Cookies. pp. 58-9
Adjust a rack to the top position in the oven and preheat the oven to 400.
Cut parchement to fit cookie sheets.
Slit one long side of each date, stuff with one walnut half or a few
pieces
of walnut. Close the date around the nut and set aside.

Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda and set
aside.
Cream the butter, add the vanilla and the sugar and beat to mix well. Add
the egg and beat thouroughly. On the lowest speed gradually add half the
dry ingredients, then all of the sour cream, then the remaining dry
ingredients. Scrape the bowl after each addition and beat only until
combined. Transfer the dough to a shallow bowl for easier handling.

Using two forks, drop each stuffed date into the the dough and roll it
around until it is completely coated. There will be enough dough to cover
each date, but don’t overdo it or you won’t have enough to go around.
Using
the forks, place the dough coated dates 2-3 inches apart on the prepared
cookie sheets.

Bake one sheet at a time for about 10 minutes until lightly browned.

While baking, prepare the glaze. Melt the butter and mix it well with the
remaining ingredients, using only enough milk to make the mixture the
consistency of soft mayonnaise. Keep the glaze covered when you are not
using it.

Remove the cookies form the oven. With a pastry brush, immediatley brush
the tops with a generous coating of the glaze. Transfer cookies to a rack
to cool. Let them stand until the glaze is dry.

PINEAPPLE MUFFIN COOKIES

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cookies Muffins

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 c Shortening
1 1/2 c Sugar
1 Egg
1 c Crushed pineapple with juice
3 1/2 c Flour
1 t Baking soda
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 ts Nutmeg
1/2 c Walnuts, chopped

A last minute substitute gave a new twist to an old
Amish recipe for raisin cookies. The cupboard was bare
so leftover pineapple was substituted for the raisins.
Everyone preferred the pineapple version. (Editor’s
Note: We called these Pineapple Muffins Cookies,
because they came out big and soft.)

Preheat oven to 350ø.

In a large mixing bowl, cream shortening, sugar and
egg. When light and fluffy, stir in crushed pineapple
with juice.

Sift flour, baking soda, salt and nutmeg together and
stir into batter. When the mixture is well blended,
stir in nuts.

Drop by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart on greased baking
sheets. Bake at 350ø for 8-10 minutes. Cool on wire
racks.

CHRISTMAS KEDGEREE

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breakfast Holiday
Fish

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
4 tb Butter
2 c Cooked rice
2 c Smoked yellowfish
3/4 c Heavy cream
1 t Curry powder
Salt to taste
4 Hard boiled eggs
3 tb Chopped parsley

CHRISTMAS EVE PREPERATION (20 MINUTES) 1. Prepare
hard boiled eggs. Cook rice, fluff gently and
refrigerate. 2. Prepare fish. You can use any fish or
shell fish but I use thick
slabs of smoked yellowfish, or thick slabs of
smoked haddock. Thin
fillets tend to break up into pieces too small.
Place fish in pan,
cover with water, and heat gently until just
before boiling point.
Drain and refrigerate. Allowing fish to boil will
turn it into mush
during final cooking. CHRISTMAS MORNING
PREPERATION (15 MINUTES) 1. In a microwave dish or
double boiler, melt butter and heat cream
(reserving 3 T for moisture adjustment). Add
cooked rice and mix well. 2. Gently break cold fish
into bite size pieces and add to mixture.
Chop hard boiled eggs and add to mixture. 3.
Adjust moisture before heating mixture. Microwave
mixture should be
moist but not damp. If using doubleboiler to heat
mixture, add reserved
cream until mixture is slightly sloppy or it will
dry out during
heating. 4. Heat mixture in microwave on high,
stirring every minute until hot.
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
