FAITH’S CHUTNEY CHEESE SPREAD

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Appetizers

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
8 oz Plain cream cheese — room
Temperature
1 c Chutney

Cream the chutney and cheese together by hand. Do not
use a food processor or blender otherwise you end up
with cheese sauce.

Choice of chutney: Pix uses her own green tomato
chutney, which is a spicy combination of tomatoes,
onions, raisins, and walnuts. All and any varieties of
chutney work well. * * * Use the spread to stuff snow
or sugar snap peas, spread on cucumber or zucchini
rounds, sweetmeal biscuits, water biscuits, or
slightly toasted miniature bagels. The chutney spread
makes a tasty sandwich when combined with smoked
turkey or Virginia ham or by itself on date and nut or
buckwheat walnut bread.

Title: SUBSTITUTE BISQUICK #3
Categories: Breads
Yield: 6 servings

5 c Flour
2 1/2 tb Baking powder, double acting
2 tb Sugar
2 ts Salt
1 ts Cream of tartar
1 c Shortening

Sift dry ingredients together. Cut in shortening with pastry blender
until it resembles crumbs. Store in airtight container up to six
weeks at room temperature, or freeze for up to six months.

Sylvia’s comments: This was just as easy to mix using a stand mixer
and worked just as well as the other two. However, since it has a lot
more ingredients and required more effort to measure than the others,
I’m dumping it from MM.
