Joel made them last summer for the very first time. This was one of the items he took to the County Fair to be judged and he received a blue ribbon for them. If you like peanut butter and chocolate, then this is the recipe for you. Double Treat Cookies 2 cups flour 2 tsp. baking soda 1 cup shortening 3/4 cup sugar * 3/4 cup brown sugar * 2 eggs 1 tsp. vanilla 1 cup. dry oats 1 c. peanut butter ( chunky or smooth) 1 6 oz. pkg chocolate chips ** Beat together the shortening, sugars, and eggs until fluffy. Blend in peanut butter and vanilla. Add dry ingredients. Stir in chocolate chips. Shape into small balls. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Flatten with a glass dipped in sugar. Bake at 350 degrees approximately 8 minutes. * original recipe called for 1 whole cup each of both kinds of sugars. I and my children usually cut down on some of the sugar. Either version is wonderful. ** original recipe called for 6oz of chips- we like to use 12 oz., but then we really like chocolate chips.

It was simple but very attractive. It could be used as a decoration and later you cook the pasta.

It originally appeared in that big, beautiful cookbook by Mary and Vincent Price. I consider it somewhat closer to a coffee cake than to a standard fruit bread. In any event, folks here have loved it. It can be mailed, and is nice for Easter gifts.

The filling can be prepared, then frozen. So when you've got last-minute company coming, just thaw the filling, unroll the bread dough, and proceed. Our friends always love this! Russian Meatloaf 1 lb. ground beef or turkey 1/2 c. chopped onions 1 TBSP butter (or use cooking spray) 2 eggs, slightly beaten 1 c. shredded Swiss or mozzarella cheese, divided in half 1/2 c. dry bread crumbs 2 TBSP parsley 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce 1/2 tsp. garlic powder 1/2 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. pepper 1 (10 oz.) refrigerated French bread dough Spray large skillet with cooking spray, or heat butter in skillet. Brown meat and onion. Drain excess oil. Remove from heat. Add all remaining ingredients except half of the cheese and the bread dough. Mix thoroughly. (If desired, freeze in 4 cup container for future use, then thaw and proceed.) Unroll bread dough onto greased cookie sheet or ungreased baking stone. Shape meat mixture into a loaf on dough.

They make really cute little Easter favors. The only trick is to make sure that you add the coconut and candies immediately after making the nest so that the marshmallows are still sticky and will thus hold the candies in place. Dried flaked coconut Green food coloring PAM (or comparable non-sticking spray), optional 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) margarine or butter 1 (10 oounce) package regular marshmallows (about 40) 6 cups corn flakes (or, substitute Rice Krispies) 1 marshmallow chicken for each "nest" Several jelly beans of jelly bellies for each "nest" Cardstock (for poem) Clear plastic wrap (to protect completed nests) Custard cups (optional) . Tint coconut green. Set aside until dry. . Spray PAM inside custard cups. Set aside. (If you don't have custard cups, omit this step.) . Put all but two teaspoons (1/3 cup) margarine or butter in large saucepan. Cook over low heat until melted. . Stir in marshmallows. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until marshmallows melt and mixture is syrupy. . Remove pan from heat and stir in cereal. . Butter your fingers with remaining 2 teaspoons butter or margarine. Working quickly, form cereal mixture into balls. - If you are using the custard cups, press each ball against bottom and sides of each cup, forming a nest. - If you are not using custard cups, simply make free- form nests sufficiently large to hole the marshmallow chicken and a few jelly beans or jelly bellies. . Sprinkle a little green-tinted coconut over each nest to simulate grass. . Place a few jelly beans or jelly bellies over the grass (varying the colors) to simulate eggs. . Place a yellow marshmallow chicken in the middle of the nest (so that the mama hen appears to be surrounded by her eggs). . If you _KNOW_ that _ALL_ of the recipients are Christian, print the following quotation onto cardstock. (The poem adds a wonderful touch, but only if all of the recipients are Christian ... e. g., it would be wholly inappropriate for a public school class comprised of children of different faiths.) JELLY BEAN PRAYER Red is for the blood He gave, Green is for the grass He made, Yellow is for the sun so bright, Orange is for the edge of night. Black is for the sins that were made, White is for the grace He gave, Purple is for the hour of sorrow, Pink is for the new tomorrow. A nest full of jelly beans, colorful and sweet, Is a prayer ... is a promise. Is an Easter treat! Author Unknown . Attach poems to nests and encase in clear plastic (to protect the food). VARIATIONS: Melt white almond bark. Stir in a little dried flaked coconut and a couple of drops of green food coloring. Shape into little nests and proceed as above. You can substitute muffin tins for custard cups, but the resultant nests will be a little small to hold the jelly bellies and marshmallow chicken. (You will then be able to fit the completed nests into foil muffin cup liners.) ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Mar 1997 18:31:01 -0500 From: Angele and Jon Freeman <jfreeman@NETUSA1.NET> Subject: coffeemakers Small problem, looks like something got inot the reservoir area of my Mr. Coffee.

I just got back from a trip, and while I was gone the pipe under my kitchen sink busted. The bad part is that my new 3-piece cast iron skillet set was under the sink too! So, they are rusting from the water, and I really have no idea what to do about them. I season them regularly, but I have no idea what to do for the rust. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
