Forty-Karat Carrot Cake
(Stolen from "Favorite Old-Fashioned Desserts" by Pat Dailey)

4 to 5 medium carrots
1 T fresh lemon juice
1 medium seedless orange (I use a medium to large one)
1-2/3 C granulated sugar
1-1/4 C vegetable oil
4 large eggs
1 T cinnamon
2 1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp grated nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1 C chopped walnuts
     (the recipe calls for toasted walnuts or pecans, but I'm lazy)
3/4 C raisins
2 C unbleached all-purpose flour

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.  Generously butter three 8-inch cake
pans.

Grate carrots in a food processor or with largest holes of a four-sided
grater.  Measure out 3 packed cups, toss with lemon juice.  Cut a flat
top and bottom on the orange and stand it on a cutting board.  Using
a small sharp knife, cut away all rind and white pith.  Coarsely chop
the orange and add it along with any juice to the carrots.  In a large
food processor or with an electric mixer, mix granulated sugar, oil
and eggs for 2 to 3 minutes.  Add cinnamon, baking soda, salt,
nutmeg and allspice, and mix well.  Stop the processor or mixer and
add the carrots-and-orange, nuts and raisins.  Mix just enough to
combine.  Add flour and mix in lightly.

Transfer batter (which is lumpy and rather thin) to prepared pans.
Bake at 325 degrees F until a toothpick inserted in the center comes
out clean, 55 to 60 minutes.  Cool cake in pans for 10 minutes and
then invert cake onto a wire rack.  Remove pans and cool cake
completely.

Frost as desired.  I use the cream cheese frosting recipe from the
Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook (the one with the red-and-white-
checks cover).

Cake can also be baked in a 12-cup Bundt pan.  Dailey's cookbook
contains a recipe for cream cheese glaze, or toss slices of "bare" cake
on plates and top with plenty of real whipped cream.  I've also done
cupcakes, which take about 35 minutes to bake.  Use the toothpick
doneness test.

No one seemed to mind the lack of asparagus in the cheescake,
and several expressed in interest in the recipe.
Special thank you to Martin for hosting YAWP and even
if the turnout was small, Zoli and I enjoyed meating people
and sampling all the yummy dishes (and to think I didn't
like asparagus as a kid).

Anyway, here's the cheesecake recipe.
crust:
1 1/2 cups graham crack crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinamon
1/3 to 3/4 cup butter

Base filling:
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2, 8 ounce packages of cream cheese
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon Grand Marnier

Top filling:
1 pint sour cream
6 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon vanila
1 teaspoon Grand Marnier

Directions:
Combine crumbs, cinamon, 1/4 cup sugar, and butter (melted, 
and I usually use 1/2 cup (one stick).

Butter a spring form pan (I've used both an 8 inch and a 10 inch
pan) and press crumbs into side and bottom of pan
(1/2 to 3/4 of the way up the side)
Bake for 5 minutes @ 350 degrees.

beat the eggs then add 1/2 cup sugar and beat at least 5 minutes.
Add the vanila, Grand Marnier, and cream cheese. blend as well
as you can (there is usually still some lumps).
pour into the pan/crust and bake 20 minutes at 375 degrees.
Take out of oven and let cool for 15 minutes.

Combine sour cream, sugar, vanilla, and Grand Marnier,
Pour on top of base filling (spread out gently)
bake 5 minutes at 475 degrees.

Let cool overnight in a refriderator.

Misc notes:
The 10 inch pan gives a slightly shallower cheasecake
if you want to get more slices, while the 8 inch is
deaper more decadent slices.

I tried all kinds of methods to break up the graham crackers
and what seems to work best is the grinder attachment
on a kitchen-aide blender. A food proccessor would probably work
as well. Using too much butter in the crust causes it to bleed
out and burns on the bottom of the oven for the final 475 bake.
Use just enough to get the other ingredients to bind together
well.

Give the crust the 5-10 minutes time to cool while preparing
the filling. Don't be afraid to really beat the eggs/sugar
thats what helps the filling its light texture. (The
kitchen-aide comes in handy here). Rum or other extracts can
be subbed for the Grand Marnier depending on taste/interest. 
The sourcream topping is light enough you can use a whisk
attachment or possibly even an eggbeater, don't be afraid
to beat it well.

That last time in the oven at 475 is hot. It may generate
smoke which can give an off flavor the cheesecake, if in
doubt, make sure the oven is clean and put a drip pan to
catch any butter that leaks out of the springform pan.

Keep chilled for transport, and don't try to transport
less than a whole cheescake or you will get an avalance.

I thought it had coconut in it, but I guess not.  This is a super simple recipe.
 I'm beginning to wonder if it is simple enough for the camp site (since this is
where I'll be makin them)  Hmmm..... I wonder if they freeze well.  I can make 
some before I go on my trip and have a 'cager' bring them to the gather.

This looks a lot like my mom's recipe for "Mountain Bars".  She'd do them
either as a bar cookie or a drop cookie and then refrigerate them.  They
never lasted more than a day in our house; they are absolutely addictive!

2. Eat it whilst sitting upon an Italian motorcycle.

After a subtle reminder from 'cesca, I remembered that I need to post my
recipe for Gateau d'Amandes.. or the marzipan bars that I made last
year. It now looks like my work schedule's going to be from home, and
since I have a sous-chef or two (if I can keep Jim from eating
everything, first) I can probably cover any of these that no one else is
making after I get the puff-pastry cookies done...

It's a super-easy recipe that doesn't take a whole heck of a lot of
time. But make sure you keep your receipts... that almond paste must
have some gold in it! 8-}

This recipe is for a 9 inch cake pan. I think I did 3 times as much for
2 9x13 pans.  I also used homemade blueberry jam for the top instead of
apricot conserves... use your imagination...  I also cut them into about
1.5 inch squares. They're pretty rich, but apparently make for a good
breakfast as well as dessert, right Ln?

suz

Ingredients:
7 ounces almond paste
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup ground almonds
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup white or pastry flour
1 tsp baking powder
__________
2 Tbsp water
1/4 cup apricot conserves

Preheat oven to 350.  Butter and flour pan.
Cream together the almond paste, butter and sugar. Mix in ground
almonds. In another bowl, beat the eggs lightly with almond extract and
add to creamed mixture.  Combine flour and baking powder and stir into
the liquid ingredients.  Mix together as lightly as possible (pretend
it's muffins...) Pour into cake pan and bake for 20-25 minutes. The cake
should be fairly dense, very moist, and golden brown on top.

In a small saucepan, stir water into the conserves and heat slowly until
it's thin enough to easily brush on the top of the warm cake.

We can call them Dutch Sugar cookies but the real name is Jan Hagel
Koekjes:

1 cup butter (don't substitute margarine!)
1 cup sugar
1 large egg, separated
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tbsp. water
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts, or toasted sliced almonds

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease cookie sheet. Mix butter,
sugar and egg yolk. Measure flour by sifting. Blend flour and cinnamon,
stir into butter mixture. Pat into pan. Beat water and egg white until
frothy, brush over dough, a thin layer just enough to cover. Sprinkle
with nuts.
Bake 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cut immediately into
finger-like strips. Makes 3-4 dozen.

Eet smakelijk!

Later,
Winny

Cherries and peaches are in season. Carol's been able to find some real
ripe peaches with real ripe peach flavor; dip 'em in good bittersweet,
brush a nice fat puff pastry with a little red currant jelly and slather
on the pastry cream (REAL vanilla, none of your distilled wood pulp,

Well, from where I'm sitting right now, anyting that resembles sunshine
just pulled out in front of chocolate.  We just got back from Mexico, and
this pale, watery Seattle sunshine is not cutting it.  :(  I'm going
through withdrawal.

Margaret Wainwright's Lemon Curd

5 eggs
2 cups sugar
juice of 3 lemons (strained)
rind of 2 lemons
1 stick unsalted butter

Beat eggs lightly and add sugar to them.  Add lemon juice, rinds and
butter to this mixture and cook slowly in the top of a double boiler
until  mixture thickens slightly.  It will thicken more when cool.  Pour
into hot, sterilized jars and seal.

It's good to eat right out of the jar, too.  :)

Grand Mariner souffle (Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking; C. Turgeon)

12 small macaroons
6 T Grand Mariner
1/2 c milk
1-(1 inch) piece vanilla bean
1/2 c butter
1/3 c all purpose flour
1/2 c sugar
1 1/4 c half and half
3 egg yolks lightly beaten
6 egg whites stiffly beaten (not beaten stiffly)
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 T confectioner's sugar

Arrange macaroons in shallow dish; sprinkle with 4 T Grand Mariner.  Let
soak till soft (about 10 min).  Remove with spatula; spread over bottom
of buttered ald lightly sugared 6- or 7-inch souffle dish.

Scald milk with vanilla bean; remove from heat.  Remove vanilla pod. 
Dry pod and store for future use (well, that's what it says).   If using
vanilla extract, add after scalding milk.

Melt butter in top of double boiler.  Stir in flour to make a smooth
paste.  Add milk and suggar alternately, stir constantly to keep smooth
paste.  Pour in half and half gradually; stir constantly until smooth
and creamy.  Remove from heat.  Por about 1/4 of hot mixture slowly into
egg yolks; stir constantly.  Stir egg yolk mixture into remaining hot
mixture.  Add 1 T grand Mariner; mix well.  Coo mixtture to RT. 
Thoroughly fold in 1/4 of egg whites; use wire whisk.  Add remaining egg
whites; fold in thoroughly but carefully.  Pour over macaroons in
souffle dish.  Bake in preheated 425 degree oven 25-30 min till puffed
and brown.

While souffle is baking, whip cream with confectioners sugar until soft
peaks form.  Blend in 1 T Grand Mariner.

Remove souffle from oven; serve immediately with dolllops of whipped
cream (on the souffle).  Sprinkle each serving with confectioner's
sugar, if desired.

Never tried it...looks pretty standard.
Maybe a few strategic bits of orange peel, or orange marmalade?

May your souffles always be as puffy as you wish.....

sorry, i totally forgot.  here goes:

one 11.5 oz. package of milk (or semi-sweet) chocolate chips
6 tbl butter (cut into 4 or 5 pieces)
3 tbl heavy cream
1.5-2 tbl instant espresso powder (i use Medaglia D'Oro, i think it tastes
best)

put all ingredients in a glass bowl, and nuke on HI for 1-1.5 minutes.  turn
part way thru if your microwave doesn't have a turntable.  stir until
smooth.  put in the freezer for about 1 hour, or until firm.  scoop out with
a melon baller, or other implement, and roll in a mix (~1:1) of
confectioners sugar, and instant espresso powder.  keep refrigerated or
frozen.

i'll spare you the "nutritional" information.  it is too scary for
words!!!!!!
enjoy!

Subject: Nut free Blackberry Linzer Torte
X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0 -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas
X-Comment: Pacific NW Motorcycle Food Forum
Status: RO


The following was adapted (slightly) from a Raspberry Linzer Torte recipe
found at http://www.epicurious.com/db/recipes/recipesH/9/929.html

Crust

2/3 cup packed golden brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Filling

6 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 16 oz bag whole frozen blackberries (I only used about 2/3 of it)
1/2 cup seedless blackberry jam

To make crust
Cream together butter, sugar and egg.  Add dry ingredients, and mix 'till
blended.  Save 3/4 of a cup of dough for the top crust (and chill), and
press the rest of it into a 9" tart pan with removable bottom.  Chill for at
least an hour.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Bake crust until light golden, piercing with
toothpick if crust bubbles, about 15 minutes.  Be careful not to overbake
now, as that will decrease the time you can bake it with the filling in.
Cool crust.

Take the dough you saved for the top crust, roll it out, and cut it using
2-3" cookie cutters.  I found this easier to say than do.  I finally wound
up with a collection of irregular shapes.  Bake the shapes on a cookie sheet
at 375 'till light golden, about 6 minutes.  Cool.

To make filling

Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler.  Spread chocolate over
bottom crust.  Drain the blackberries and arrange blackberries on top of
chocolate.  Melt jam in a small saucepan.  Spoon evenly over berries.

To finish
Bake at 375 for about 35 minuties, until crust is golden brown.  Cool.  Put
dough shapes artistically on top.  Eat.

Notes:

Damp potholders conduct heat to your finger tips in a real hurry.

Frozen black berries take a _long_ time to thaw in a very cold refrigerator.
I think the filling would come out less soupy if the berries were completely
thawed before being used.

When pressing the dough into the pan, attention should be paid to th edges
where the sides of the pan and bottom come together.   I wound up with a
very thick crust there, sort of ramping up to the top of the pan.

For a setting where nuts were OK, I think I'd put the 1/2 cup toasted
blanched almonds the recipe called for in.

Next time, I want to try laticing the top crust, instead of using irregular
blobs.

Enjoy!

I had something last night that was just delicous and had to share.  I
don't have a recipe per se, but from the menu description it should not be
too hard.

They sliced fresh stawberries, and put on some sugar, and balsamic vinegar.
 Then shaved chocolate and just a smidge of cracked peppercorns.  It was
served with orange sorbet and was VERY GOOD.  The contrast of the sweet of
the strawberries and sugar, and the sour/acid of the balsamic vinegar.
Then the accent of the chocolate shavings and just a smidge of pepper.  The
orange sorbet helps too.

I am salivating from being reminded of this....

>Alright, you lot, RECIPES!  I want RECIPES!

OK, I'll bite.

I brought those rolled up thingies with the figgy cream filling. The wrapper
was lefse, the filling was, well, figs and cream.

The only figs I could find were sun dried, which is fine because they were
quite flavorful. Anyway, I pureed the figs and cooked them in some water and
sugar down to a syrup.

Next, I whipped up the cream. I don't have an electric mixer, so I had to
whip the cream by hand! I'm not proud...

Finally, I put the cream in the lefse and rolled it up.

======================

What is lefse?

Lefse (pronounced lef-sah) is a scandinavian bread, similar to tortillas. It
is made from potatos and flour. You can use it to make snadwiches and stuff,
but I find they work better with sweeter fillings (such as the fig cream
filling I made).

Gulla Malacca is the only excuse I know for tapioca. Wait! Stop that
finger (I see it heading for the 'delete' key!). This recipe comes
from southeast asia, where tapioca is a food substance; the tapioca
pudding recipes YOU'RE thinking about are inherited from the English,
where, like sago pudding, blancmange, and spotted dick, they were
developed to punish school boys (which explains why, before today's
gentler treatment, so many young Englishmen set off around the world,
in search of something decent to eat).

This was originally made of palm sugar (gulla malacca translates
'molaccan sugar'), but brown sugar is a perfectly satisfactory
substitute. The pudding is, essentially, an excuse to spoon up large 
quantities of brown sugar syrup and coconut milk, so if you serve it
without either, don't come whining to me about how it's boring.


Gulla Malacca

1/2 C large pearl tapioca, NOT instant, soaked overnight in
3 C water

1 C brown sugar
1/4 t salt

1 T cornstarch mixed with
1 T water

Add brown sugar and salt to tapioca, simmer until transparent (about
an hour) stirring often.

Add cornstarch combined with water, cook until clear.

Put into jello mold or individual custard cups and chill.
Serve with brown sugar syrup (below) and coconut cream (belower).

Brown sugar syrup

1 C brown sugar
1/2 C water

Heat, stirring, until all the sugar is dissolved. Cool.


Coconut cream

1 C unsweetened dried coconut
1 C evaporated milk
1 C milk

Bring to a boil, squeeze in a cheesecloth bag or ricer while still
hot, and chill.

Alternative: Open a can of coconut milk. I've seen this made, but
in these enlightened times, I've never had reason to make it myself.

NOTE that coconut milk (an extract of ripe coconut) is unrelated in
ANY WAY to coconut water, the tart juice from an unripe coconut.


Boil 'em if you got 'em,

Martin

Hey Joe~
Found a couple recipes for you to try. I admit, I haven't made these,
but the first sounds easy and the second, well, it sounds an awful lot
like my favorite dessert at the Langley Cafe... the closest experience
I've had to the true "Oral Orgasm". Nummmmmy!

                Vanilla Custard
1 cup half n half
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 whole egg
2 egg yolks

Scald half n half with the sugar. Cool slightly and add the vanilla.
Beat egg and egg yolks until light and lemon colored. Add hot half n
half, stirring constantly. Strain thru a fine sieve (get out a big
piece of your pipe screen) into 4 small custard cups or pots.
Set in a pan of hot water. Cover. Bake at 325' for 20 to 25 min. or
until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. If overcooked,
it will become watery.
Garnish with mounds of slightly sweetened whipped cream, etc.   
sounds fun!


              Hazelnut Bavarian Cream

Soak:  1 T. gelatin
in:    2 T. cold water
Scald: 1/2 cup milk
Beat Together:
       1/4 cup sugar
       4 egg yolks
       1/8 t. salt
Combine the milk with the egg mixture by pouring first a little of the
hot milk over the mixture and adding the rest gradually. Stir over
(not in) hot water until the ingredients begin to thicken. Stir in the
soaked gelatin until desolved.Grind and add:
       3/4 cup hazelnuts
Add:   1 t. vanilla
Chill these ingredients until they are about to set. Whip until stiff:
       1 Cabana Boy
OOPS! Sorry, wrong recipe book...
       *2 cups whipping cream* (THAT'S it!)
Fold into the other ingredients. Place the pudding in the serving
dish(s). Chill thoroughly. Serve with raspberry juice (you find this
with the canned pie fillings.)
Tell me how this turns out. If my girlish figure hadn't gotten so
matronly, I'd make and eat it all myself!

Deliriously yours
Tina

[Ok - that was a lie.
This is the same 'Grandpa' who had the Scoop Shovel Stew recipe 
and he called these German, not Swedish.]

Divides in half ok.
I have modified where indicated* for a nutty flavor.

Grandpa's Swedish Pancakes
1 cup water
3 tsp brown sugar*  (IDM - I Don't Measure )
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 tsp nutmeg*     (IDM)
1/2 tsp cinnamon*   (IDM)
~ 2 cups flour

Use a blender if possible.  Add flour last, and slowly, while checking the
consistency.  Batter _must_ be _thin_.  (Can I emphasize THIN?)  Fry in hot
skillet like a crepe.  Use Pam for each.  I like a skillet with a rounded edge.

Put batter in pan and roll pan for thin cake.  Turn when brown on edges. 
Serve w/butter, syrup, powdered sugar, honey, etc.
1 batch serves 5-6.

I like this as a social breakfast.  I can usually work 2 cooking pans at a
time and serve people seated at the breakfast bar.  People get to watch how
others make up their cakes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

OTOH, sometimes I get up late and (if it's just me) mimic the recipe by
using Krusteze mix and making it _very_ thin (as described above) and add
the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.  It's nearly as good and a lot
easier, even at a campout.
(I don't apologize for substitutions, Martin.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Fruit Soup (Berry Syrup)  [some call it a compote]

2 pkg (approx 16oz) Blueberries (or blackberries, etc.)
1 1/2 cup water
1 1/2 cup sugar
4 tbsp cornstarch
2 tsp lemon juice

Put sugar and water in saucepan, heat til sugar dissolves.  Add fruit &
lemon juice.  Dissolve cornstarch in a little water.  Add to syrup.  Bring
to a boil and simmer for about 10 minutes until it thickens.  Freeze.

This turns out really thick.  Great for the pancakes, above.

For breakfast pull some of this out and defrost.  You can refreeze later if
you need to.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nick...

Okay, so not so terribly popular, but a couple of you asked me to post
the recipe for those calorie-free cookies I brought to the weekend...
here it is!

1/2 cup butter or marg
4 oz cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp grated lemon peel
1 cup flour

Beat butter, sugar and cream cheese 'til creamy. Add the rest of the
stuff and mix thoroughly. Drop by spoonfuls onto baking sheets and bake
at 350F for about 12 minutes or until edges are golden.

Stuff your face... they're small, so you can eat more without feeling
guilty...

Any questions?

Here's a little dessert tasty that I whipped up for a BBQ.  Cut into
lengthwise slices (after quartering and coring) 4 to 6 Bosc pears.  Toss in
a bowl with a mixture of 1/4 cup apricot preserve or orange marmalade and 3
oz. bourbon or triple sec or gran...you get the idea.  Lay the slices out
(no more than a layer of 2) in a buttered gratin pan (shallow baking pan)
and sprinkle with a good amount of granulated sugar (for caramelization).
Place on oven rack about 6 to 8 inches from the top broiler element/burner.
 Bake for 15 minutes at 400 deg. F.  Then, turn on broiler and brown
(almost burn) the sugar on top of the pears (about 3 to 5 minutes should do
it, it's ok to burn a few of the edges as this adds a certain flavor to the
dish).  The top of the pears should be a little crispy (from the
caramelized sugar) when you remove it from the oven.

Serve about 2 - 3 table spoon servings in a shallow bowl or boat, spoon a
little of the juices over the pears and top off with about 1 tsp. of aged (
6 to 10 years $$) balsamic vinegar.

If it doesn't come out right, come over to my place and I'll make it for
you.   8^)

I just got this from a friend, and had to share:
========================================

1 - 9" unbaked pie shell
1 cup sugar
3 Tbsp flour
dash of salt
1 cup sour ream
1 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbsp sugar
3 cups tart apples (sliced)

1.	combine sugar, flour & salt
2.	Add sour cream and beat until smooth
3.	Pour mixture over fruit in pastry shell
4.	Sprinkle cinnamon & sugar over filling.
5.	Bake at 425 for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 for a further 35 minutes
        or until apples are tender and topping has browned.

Variations:
Sliced peaches
Pitted fresh cherries
Mixed fruit (plums, cherries, peaches)
Sliced Pears

Lower fat - drained thickened plain yogurt - gives a slightly tarter taste
Sugar can also be reduced or replaced with brown sugar

I like to add a little nutmeg

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

For good luck, here is my pastry recipe

No Fail Pastry

5 ½ cups pastry flour
1 tsp salt
1 lb. shortening (or lard)
1 egg
1 Tbsp white vinegar
cold water

Blend first three ingredients together with pastry blender or two knives
Break egg into measuring cup, add vinegar and enough water to make one cup
of liquid.
Mix liquid into flour and blend well.  If dough is too soft, add ¼ - ½ up
more flour.
Chill before using. Roll out chilled pastry on well floured board


Note: this is a large recipe and should make three double-crust pies.   It
is very nice, since it will take a fairly heavy hand without getting tough.
Keeps well in the fridge (two weeks max). Freezes very well - I usually make
one pie and package up the leftovers to be frozen for later use..  This
pastry works well both with savoury and sweet fillings.  Lard makes a
'shorter' crust.

I promised I would post the recipe for the Bourbon Balls I brought to the
Gather.  Their official name on the recipe is "Sugared Nut Balls" but for
some strange reason I prefer Bourbon Balls.

2-1/2 cups finely crushed nilla vanilla wafer crumbs
2 Tbsp sifted cocoa
1-1/2 cups sifted XXX sugar, divided
1 cup finely chopped walnuts
1/3 to 1/2 cup bourbon
3 Tbsp white corn syrup

Takes about 25-30 mins.

In a medium bowl, combine crumbs, cocoa, 1 cup XXX sugar and nuts.  Mix
well.  Add bourbon and corn syrup; mix well with fork until crumb mixture
is evenly wet.

Shape into 1-inch balls; then roll in remaining XXX sugar.

Store in loosely covered container to mellow, about 2 days.

Will keep several weeks.

Makes about 3-1/2 dozen balls.

Following, please find 3 recipes.......

1. Whiskey Truffles
2. Basic White Chocolate Truffles
3. SwtP's Lemon Tequila White Chocolate Truffles





WHISKEY TRUFFLES

8 oz semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
2/3 cup finely crushed gingersnap cookies
3 tablespoons Jack Daniel's Whiskey
1/2 cup unsweetened  cocoa powder
1/2 cup powdered sugar

Melt chocolate and butter in heavy medium saucepan over low heat, stirring 
until smooth.  Mix in crushed cookies and whiskey.  Pour into bowl.  Cover 
and chill until firm, about 45 minutes.

Line cookie sheet with foil.  Drop truffle mixture by tablespoons (or a 
little smaller) onto foil, spacing apart.  Freeze 15 minutes.  Roll each 
between palms of hands into smooth round.  Sift cocoa powder and sugar into 
shallow dish.  Roll each truffle in cocoa mixture. 
(Can be prepared 1 week ahead.  Cover and refrigerate in air-tight container.)
Let stand 15 minutes at room temperature before serving.

Makes about 2 dozen.  Travels well 600 miles over twisty mountain roads in 
sweltering heat if packed in dry ice.


BASIC WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES  

1/2 cup          Heavy Cream
1 teaspoon     Lemon Peel  (finely grated)
1/2 lb             **White Baker's Chocolate (chopped up into small pieces)
 **DO NOT use packaged white chocolate chips!  I learned this the hard way!  
White chocolate chips do not melt!!!!
1 Tablespoon  Unsalted Butter
1/2 teaspoon   Vanilla Extract
Powdered Sugar (to coat)

Heat heavy cream and lemon peel just to simmer.  Remove from heat.  Stir in 
White Baker's Chocolate pieces and let sit 5 minutes.  Add Butter and Vanilla 
Extract and stir till smooth.  Cover and chill 3 hours.  
Cover cookie sheets with waxed paper and drop chilled mixture by teaspoon 
fulls onto waxed paper.  Chill again 10 minutes.  Roll into round balls.  
Roll in sifted powdered sugar to coat.  Keep refrigerated or frozen.  If 
frozen, remove from freezer 15 minutes before serving.  Can be served 
straight from refrigerator if not frozen.

SWTP'S LEMON TEQUILA WHITE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES

Use Basic White Chocolate Truffle recipe above BUT reduce Heavy Cream to 1/4 
cup, add 3 tablespoons Tequila and increase the lemon peel to taste.

Note: If you double or triple the recipe you may need to reduce the Tequila 
even further to only 2 tablespoons per basic recipe because, as a part of the 
total liquid used in the recipe, the Tequila makes the recipe more runny than 
an equal amount of cream would.

Makes around 24 truffles. 

Bon Appetit!!!

After you're done BBQ'n the meat/vegis, wash peaches and place on grill
(med-low heat) turn four to six times (about 5-8 minutes on a side).  Top
with rum/cointreau/etc. and ice cream/whipped cream/etc. or balsamic
vinegar.    SIMPLE!

One of the mixed blessings of being self-(un)employed is having the TV on
for company as I change from sleepwear to workwear and begin my day.  :)

This morning on GMA Emeril Lagasse made Cranberry Apple Pie with Sweet
Walnut Topping.  Mmmmmm...

Was leery of posting the recipe from their web site as they were pretty
bold with their copyright messages.  OTOH they said quite clearly I could
share with friends...  So, friends, here is that recipe.

After that I'll list a few other descriptions w/ URLs.  Viewing the full
index is left as an exercise to the reader.  Hope I got all the "extended"
characters out...

GMA's Emeril Lagasse serves up a delicious cranberry apple pie with sweet
walnut topping ... just in time for Thanksgiving! The recipe is taken from
his book, Emeril's New New Orleans Cooking.

Cranberry Apple Pie 
From: Emeril’s New New Orleans Cooking 

Ingredients
1/2 recipe Basic Pie Dough 
1 3/4 cups light brown sugar 
2 tablespoons heavy cream 
5 tablespoons cornstarch 
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg 
1 teaspoon salt 
1 pound Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, 
  and cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 4 cups) 
2 cups fresh cranberries, rinsed and picked over 
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, in all 
3/4 cup granulated sugar 
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 
1 cup walnut pieces 
Ice cream (optional) 

Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

2. Prepare the Basic Pie Dough and line pie pan. 
Refrigerate until ready to fill.

3. In a bowl combine the brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, 
nutmeg, and salt, and mix well. In another bowl combine the 
apples, cranberries, and lemon juice, and toss well. Pour the 
dry mixture over the fruit.  Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter, 
pour it over all, and mix thoroughly.

4. Turn the mixture into the pie shell and bake the pie until 
the fruit is tender, for about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and 
set the pie on a rack to cool.

5. In a large skillet oven medium heat, melt the remaining 8 
tablespoons butter with the granulated sugar. Cook, stirring, 
until the mixture is bubbling and the consistency of a thick roux, 
for about 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the cream, vanilla, and walnuts 
and cook, stirring constantly, for 4 minutes. Remove from the heat 
and cool for 20 minutes. Spoon the topping over the cooled pie and 
refrigerate overnight.

6. To serve, cut the pie into wedges, and add a scoop of ice cream, 
if you like. 

Makes one 9-inch tart
