OK folks.
We all know how much we all love to talk about food and make our fellow chatters hungry while chatting.
So now lets stop talking and put our love of food and cooking to good use. With the holiday season upon us... lets share our favorite recipes so that, even though we are a globe apart, we can all share a little bit of ourselves with each other. Remind everyone to add one and lets see just how many we can get on here.
Happy holidays to everyone!
Angie (Denise)

I absolutely insist on fudge,  Here is my uncle's recipe. I make it every year.
2 cups white sugar 4T cocoa
3/4 cup milk 1 T butter
1 T. honey 1 t. vanilla
Melt sugar and honey in the milk in a small pot.
Once boiling, add the cocoa, continually stirring till cocoa is mixed in completely.
Boil till hard ball is formed in glass of water.
Cool slightly and add butter and vanilla.
Stir till fudge loses it's shine and starts to thicken. Pour into pie plate lined with wax paper.
cool,, eat,,,,,,,,,, ALL of it lol ( don't let the kids know you made it)

ducks super simple pancakes.
1 egg (free range)
1 cup of self raising flour
1 cup of milk
rasins, currents, cranberries sort of thing, you know what i meen.
stick the fruity things in a cup and poor boiling water on them, then stick a plate over the top or something.
mix all the other ingrediants together. drain off the fruit and bung that in the mix, then spoon in to a preheated frying pan, non stick, or melt a nob of butter on it. mid heat, fry until flippable, flip it, do the other side,
make in batches, how ever many you want.
eat with cream and honey if you can afford such luxuries, if not, improvise with something like mushy microwaved aples.
its pretty nommy.
TIP
the water from the fruity things, once drained, makes the ncest tasting hot drink EVER! to drain it in to another cup and enjoy. i cant work out if its a juice cordial or a tea.
Ducks short bread, quick bake 'shit ive run out of bsicuits what the hell am I going to dunk in my tea?' saviours.
work on estimates, exact measurements are for total wooses. if you measure things, its not REAL cooking. think art not science 
cake or cookie (not pastrey) making butter.. soft scoop from the tub, i use the brand Stalk.
plain flour
caster sugar.
anything you wish to add, fruity things, choc chips, almonds or other nuts, orange zest....
mix is allll together in a bowl so its a doh that you can flatten out without it breaking apart or sticking to your hands or anything.
take a knife to it, cut out some funky shapes, stick it on a baking tray, shove it in a pre heated oven for no longer than 10 mins on what ever heat is going to work best,
take them out when they are still soft but not to floppy, dont let them burn. underdone is good, over done is bad.
leave to cool. and eat
TIP
PERFECT dipped in TEA (english tea. aka yourkshire/breakfast blend/black tea. with milk! (no sugar)
I may return with more simple cheep and tastey experinments of mine. yeah, there all experiments. meening NO MEASURMENTS.. wich is good if you dont have any scails.

What do Recovery Realm and a rubber duck have in common?
They both keep you company when you're getting clean. |
