Topic: Looking for Recipe: P-nut Butter Recee Cups
I would like to get the recipe for Peanut Butter Recee Cups. I believe
my mom got the recipe from Mrs. Black in #1 camp. If anyone still
has the recipe I would appreciate it. I remember mom making it when
I was real young. I remember you put chocolate, peanut butter and
chocolate (in that order) in paper cup cake cups and refrigerate. But I
don't remember how they made the chocolate and if you add anything
to the peanut butter. I have tried making it, but it is not the same.

They really taste like Recee Cups.

1 pound butter-softened
2 cups peanut butter
3 teaspoons vanilla
21/2-3 pounds powdered sugar
1pound dipping chocolate*

small balls Pour little bit of chocolate in the bottom of paper cup.
Drop ball in while chocolate is soft. Pour more chocolate on top to
rim of cup.

Topic: BAKING A TURKEY
Hi friends those Holidays will roll around before we know it.Lets
bake Turkey. Wanna walk you thrugh like you're in my old
kitchen,come on in.I usually bake 18 pounder.When a turkey is
frozen,do not thaw altogether outside fridge,Start about three days
before baking to thaw in refrigerator and last day let lay out little while
and put back in fridge will be all thawed out next day,Be sure to wash
it thoroughly and keep Hands washed and clean and all utentials,
because fowl can give Salmonella a real bad sickness of the
stomach.Wash Turkey and lay out on paper towels and dry good. I
have a large roaster with a lid on it .Have roaster ready with enough
water that comes up to touch about 1/2 inch to the turkey and the
juices can flow into, can always add extra water.Chop up
onions,celery and put in the water salt and pepper use your own
judgement of the engredients,don't be afraid to experiment with your
cooking learns you to be a good cook,You can either wrap your
turkey in aluminum foil or you can get cooking bags at the
market.After cleaning place your turkey on foil enough to wrap good
and do your seasoning or in the cooking bag and push the top aside
salt and pepper and melt 2 sticks butter or margarine.pour over and
inside the turkey.Never stuff with cornbread dressing makes the
turkey taste strong,always bake it on the side ,But you can use the
store bought dressing already mixed and put enough water to soak it
and margarine and sage then stuff inside the turkey fixing the legs
back inside the sack wrap up the ends of baking bag can cut a few
slits in bag for juice to escape place in the middle of Roaster,Most
turkeys have a little red button that snaps out when done or can test
the tenderness by fork.always make sure you have enough water in
your roaster to put in your dressin and make good gravey.The giblets
can be cooked separate and add onions and celery salt and pepper
also used in dressin.For corn bread dressin make your cornbread
head of time,Crumble up bread in mixing bowl also crumble up some
regular white bread and add to cornbread, add celerey onions salt
and pepper and sage or pourtry seasoning til you think it has enough
taste of sage and 2 eggs.To get the broth from my roaster,I'm careful
to not get burned and lay something on my oven door and with
padded gloves pull my roaster out far enough to take a cooking
dipper and dip juice and cooked onions and celery from the sides of
the roaster over my dressing can add extra water back in your roaster
if needed and add a little cold water to dressin,mixing this Good and
bake in a long greased pan or greased skillet til brown,When Turkey
is done lift and set out to cool.There are large forks that can be
bought to stick in each side of turkey to lift out and put on platter
removing the plastic bag and ready to carve.with remaining broth for
gravey,Bring your broth back to boil and with a cup of water stir in all
purpose flour or corn starch in the cup til mixed good and stir into
your broth will thicken your broth making good gravey,This is my
way of fixing a good tasteing Turkey for any Holiday and your turkey
will not be dry but moist.Its Gooood- cook, eat, smile,
be happy, and husband and kiddies and friends will be happy and
don't forget to give Thanks unto God for your food and ask his
Blessings. G.Ellen

Topic: Chicken and Dumplins Kentucky style
Hi friends I.ve already put on Fried chicken so how about lets try
some chicken and dumplins,We can be glad for modern days. It's not
like the good old days in Ky,when our relatives would have to kill a
chicken and scald it and take off the feathers,now we can go to the
market and pick out a good chicken and cut up for ourselves..Pick a
good plump chicken to stew,Always wash it good and also your
hands and knife you use,Because of salmonella germs,Put about
4cups water in a pot and your cut up pieces of chicken,or you can
even use just breasts for stewing.salt and pepper and cook til
tender.Set aside to cool.Take off all meat from the bones,always
make sure you have enough broth left to cook dumplins.I also
sometimes use two chicken cubes in my broth. Don't be afraid to
experiment with your cooking til you get it down pat so to speak,For
dumplins,3 cups all purpose flour-1 teaspoon salt-1 tablespoon
baking powders.1/2 teaspoon soda.2 eggs beaten good 1cup of vit,d
milk-mix all in flour and some water to make it to consistency to roll
out.Have a floured board and pour your dough and roll in a ball and
use floured glass or roller to roll out the dough,Roll out thin and flour
a little and cut small strips in both directions,put a little butter on your
hands and it will make them easier to pick up and drop in boiling
broth.keep stirring around til done,.Then pour all the chicken pieces
into your dumplins,can always add a little water if they are too dry
won't hurt taste.Also for the guys can just spoon drop dough into
cooking broth a short cut i do alot of times.Bake a nice pan of corn
bread,serve with a pot of fresh green half runner beans with new
potatoes in them and some wonderful cole slaw, desert: lemon
meringue Pie.Umm Umm.a good dinner for the man you love.Hey
good looking what you got cooking how about cooking something up

Name: Debra Petra

Hello, Thought I would share my Mom's Cornbread recipe with you.
This is how my mom (Inez Childers Whitehead) taught me to make
cornbread when I was 12-years old.

Pre-heat oven to 350°. Heat cooking oil in cast iron skillet (do not let
oil burn). If your skillet tends to stick: Sprinkle a little corn meal into
skillet just before pouring your batter in.

3-Cups Self Rising Meal
2-Cups Self Rising Flour
1-Egg (well beaten)
2-Tbs. Oil
Mix in enough butter milk, alternating with water to make a good
consistency (depending on how you like your cornbread).

Stir until smooth.
Pour into hot cast iron skillet, bake in 350° oven for about 20 to
30-minutes or until golden brown. I like my cornbread thin and
crispy. You can alter the recipe to make your cornbread thicker or
thinner depending on the size of your iron skillet.

Once out of the oven, spread butter on top. Slice and enjoy.

My Mom loved to cook, but most of all she loved cooking for others.
On many occasions, she would have us fix plates and deliver them to
others before we sat down to eat.

Thanks Debra for adding your cornbread recipe. nothing like the

Topic: LETS HAVE SOME FRIED CHICKEN COUNTRY
STYLE
Hi friends :Most of us good Kentuckians are really familiar with
FRIEEEED CHICKEN, I can Remember how my aunt Mary and
granny Julie would have to kill the chicken and take off the feathers
and clean it, But we're lucky we can go to the market and choose a
good chicken to cook or fry,You can buy it already cut up ,but for us
who know how to cut up chicken ( I've cut a many)we cut our own.
Wash the chicken good and also your hands real good cause with
fowl we have to watch the Saminello germs and thats worse then a
bad flu. can make you terribly sick Cut your chicken in pieces place
in large bowl or pan=+ pepper it good and salt all pieces- moving
them around+ in cup beat an egg and and add some vit,d milk - to the
egg and beat,pour this over your chicken and mix about rolling your
pieces around take a cup of self rising meal and mix all over the
chicken and also add just a little all purpose flour work it all in to
cover all the pieces I large frying pan add enought wesson oil to cover
around your chicken ( Not a whole lot) enough to fry it good and not
burn,Let the oil get real hot and place your chicken pieces side by
side( like one big happy family) in the hot oil.Place a lid on top.you
can usually smell the chicken browning take a meat fork and slowly
turn your pieces on the other side .place a lid on top allowing the
chicken to steam and get cooked thru,No one likes to see Chicken
not done in the center,you can take your fork and check sometimes
when you think your chicken is almost done remove the lid and let
slowly fry and simmer awhile and it will get golden brown and the
meal makes it so tasty. Serve with Green beans, mashed potatoes
,slaw and a pan of cornbread and a desert.What a good Kentucky
feast for that man you love.Come girls Get that chicken Fried and you
won't have to go to COLONEL SANDERS FOR YOUR
CHICKEN AND SAVE THAT MONEY FOR A LITTLE TIME
OUT WITH YOUR MAN.Us women like to save that dough for a
pretty outfit to wear us girls just looooove to have fun.COME BY
HERE LORD !COME BY HERE !<COME BY HERE LORD
!COME BY HERE<!SOMEBODY NEEDS YOU LORD COME
BY HERE!OH MY LORD won't you COME BY HERE???!!!_

Hi Gertie - great recipes! Did you ever
make a "Vinegar Cobbler"? My grand-
mother made them when I was a child. On
every Sunday after church we would go to her house in Evarts for
Sunday dinner
and she would often have this dessert. It is similar to lemon pie in that
it got its tartness from the vinegar. Take my word it was delicious.
Keep up the recipes. Sharon 'Lee' Dibari - Club House Camp -

Topic: THE BEST COLE SLAW INTHE WORLD WELL
MAYBE
HI friends In the 60's when my Peggy Sue was a baby I worked at a
Restaurant in Dayton,Oh .called the Hasty Tasty Restaurant- and
here I learnd to make the best cole slaw and been making it ever
since ,even for our church dinners and picnics.They say Gert make
some of that cole slaw.,Take a regular head of Cabbage,If you have
one of those type hand slicers with the handle with differen shapes of
openings fro cutting and grating, you can Wash your cabbage dry off
excess water and cut in chunks ,Take your cutter by the handle and a
piece of cabbage and slice up and down the cutter til you have all
your chunks cut, well I might add you don't have to use the whole
cabbage in this recipe if you don't need that much take two carrots
and one onion, and couple stalks celery ,sometimes I take the pieces
out of the center of the celery where its nice and tender (like yours
truly Gert) (Love me tender love me sweet never let me Go)scrape
your carrots and also slice them up and down the cutter,and onion the
same til all are cut up.add a little salt and a cup of sugar ,a teaspoon
of vinegar, 2 large cooking spoons Of Kraft Mayonaise or put in
enough to your taste 1 cup of vit,d milk or I just put my milk in til its
suitable to me.stir this all up good .By the sweetness in it gives it a
good taste ,maybe for diabedics we can add couple of those little
packs of sweet and low sugar subsitutes.instead of sugar mix . put in
a nice bowl to go with your FriEEEEEd Chicken,That's what my little
grand son Steven says he's 3 years old and trys to be comical. ++ I
will make your life complete and I love you so,Girls as you make this
slaw Think Of Elvis Pressley and sing :love me tender, Love me
true+++ and you'll have that slaw dish made before you can almost
bat your eye.She can bake a cheery pie Quick as you can bat your
eye, she's a young one and cannot leave her momma .Try it you'll like
it makie this little dishie for your little hubby.- thanks all _

Topic: HOW TO MAKE PIE CRUST FOR YOUR PIES
Hi friends to not take up so much space on making a pie or cobbler
I'll put the Pie crust recipe how I make it.I usually use -Gold metal or

flour+1 tablespoon (the size thats a little bigger then a teaspoon)Like
a soup spoon.-1/2 teaspoon salt++= 2 large cooking spoons of
crisco or shortening++mix the flour engredients and (wash hands
first)be cleanny)then take hands work all the crisco up in the flour til
its all little chunky pieces,pour cold water in til consistency enough to
roll out and not gooey.put in frige and chill makes it easier to work
with. have your dough board floured and lay your dough in the center
put flour on top sorta roll it around and get it firm,Take dough roller
or floured Glass and roll out thin to be able to slice slices for cobbler
,But if you want to make a regular pie divide the dough in parts for
each pie,have butterd round tins ready or glass pie dishes,roll out thin
and fold over in center Picking up and put in pan and fold back
open,Now don't be scared to work with it you can learn to master
that dough,work it out over the edges taking fingers and forming it to
