Yesterday the internet was down (and cable TV.) By the time it was back online
it was late in the evening. There wasn't time to get the newsletter done by
midnight. I am sorry for the delay in getting the newsletter sent out.

As an avid bread maker, I thought
I'd come across and tried most varieties of bread. There was a recipe on FB
(posted by Chris, NM this morning). I was intrigued and thought I might give it
a try, does anyone have any experience or advice on this?

Chocolate Walnut Fudge Recipe
Ingredients
4
tablespoons of unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the 8" x 8" pan
3 cups
of mini marshmallows
1 cup sugar (I used organic pure cane sugar and it works
very well)
1/2 cup heavy cream (heavy whipping cream works as well)
1/2
teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
12 ounces semi
sweet chocolate (use the best quality you can find, it does make a difference)
1 cup walnuts, chopped
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spread chopped walnuts evenly onto a cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
Stay close to the oven to keep an eye on them to prevent burning. Remove walnuts
when they are toasted to your desired taste (I toast mine for 10 minutes but
that might be "too toasted" for other people).
Grease a 8" x 8" pan with
butter and then line with 2 pieces parchment paper that are crisscrossed,
leaving an overhang. Butter the paper and set aside pan. This step helps enable
you to remove the formed fudge with ease from the pan later on!
Using a
large saucepan over medium heat, add 4 tablespoons of butter, 3 cups mini
marshmallows, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt.
Stir gently until the mini marshmallows are melted, this may take 8-10 minutes.
Remove from heat, add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, 12 ounces of chocolate chips and
1/2 cup walnuts, stir until the chocolate is fully melted and everything is
combined. Pour into prepared 8" x 8" pan, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup toasted
walnuts over the top and allow to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes. Cover
and transfer to refrigerator and set for 1 hour.
When the fudge is
completely set, use the overhang to gently lift the fudge onto a cutting board
to cut for serving. Enjoy!
You can store this Chocolate Walnut Fudge in the
refrigerator in an air tight container for up to 5 days, doubt it will last that
long!

Hi, Nancy & Nancylanders, a Happy
4th of July to you all! I was wondering if anyone had a
good recipe for no-bake cheesecake. I used to have one
years back, and often made it in the summer. I know it had cream cheese & Cool
Whip in it, a graham crust & we often topped it with cherry pie filling. It was
a large one, made in a 13 x 9 inch pan.
Thanks !! Laura in Pennsylvania

Answer to Patty Pan Squash Recipe
I recently froze 12 large
ones. You cut not cubes and blanch them. I them soaked them in ice until cooled.
At this time I placed them on cookie sheet and placed them in freezer until
frozen. They freeze fast. Then put them in freezer bags. They will be frozen
sepeartely so you and take out what is needed. I cook mine off and just add
butter, salt and pepper. YOu can also fry them like zucchini, rather than
freezing them. This is one of the oldest squash. around and the mildest ones.
Anything you do with other squash you can do with these. Tops can be removed and
ten scoped out and stuffed with a stuffing of your choice. We like an Italian
sausage stuffing. Very pretty presentation.

This used to be my kids favorite
chocolate cake. The recipe used to be on the back of the Hershey's can, but last
time I looked it wasn't there. Luckily I copied the recipe in my file so I'd
have it.

Wilted
Lettuce Recipe
My mother just chopped up iceberg lettuce
and green onions fine! Then she would cook about 1/2 bacon take it out and drain
it on a paper towel! She would then heat the bacon grease until it just started
to smoke, then she would pour it over the lettuce and onions! This was usually
served with pinto beans and hot cornbread! It was delicious!
Also my oldest
brother would drizzle just a little buttermilk over his! This was some
good eating back in the days!

This information has
appeared in past newsletters, but since we have so many new people reading the
newsletter, many of which say they are novice cooks, I thought I would resubmit
this. Many people like the ease of using a cake mix, but don't think the cake is
as good or tasty as one made from scratch. Doing any of the following or all of
them will make your cake mix richer and hard to tell from one made from
Robbie IN
Tips For Improving Cake Mixes
Substitute milk or buttermilk for the amount of water listed on the box.
Add
an extra egg.
Substitute softened or melted butter for the amount of oil
listed on the box.

Testing
Doneness Of Bundt Cakes
Here is a tip for testing the
doneness of Bundt Cakes that was in a recent newsletter from King Arthur Flour.
Robbie IN
When testing the center of Bundt cakes for doneness, use a
piece of dry spaghetti for the usual short toothpick you use when testing a
sheet or layer cake.

Egg
Freshness Poem
Can you eat that egg?
By Scott Matthews
If not sure you ought-ter,
then place it in water.
If it lies on its side,
then it's fresh; eat with pride.
After three or four days,
at an angle it
lays.
But, it still is a treat,
so go on and eat.
Ten days, stands on
end,
in your baking 'twill blend.
'Cause it's definitely edible,
in
your baking, incredible.
But, if it floats on the surface,
that egg
serves no purpose.
'Cause a floater's a stinker!
Out the back door best
fling 'er!
