1 8-oz. pkg. Cream Cheese, softened
1/2 Cup Miracle Whip Salad Dressing (I've used mayo, too)

1/8 teaspoon garlic salt
Combine cream cheese and salad dressing, mixing until well blended. Stir in remaining
ingredients. Cover; chill. Serve with assorted crackers.

 RASPBERRY ALMOND SANDWICH COOKIES
(Another really easy, but delicious recipe!)
1 box Duncan Hines Golden Sugar Cookie Mix
1 egg
1 Tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 Cup sliced natural almonds, broken
Seedless Red Raspberry Jam (I use Polaner's all-fruit)
1. Preheat oven to 375 F
2. Combine cookie mix, buttery flavor packet from mix, egg, water and almond extract in
large bowl. Stir until thoroughly blended. Drop half of dough by level measuring
teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. (It is a small amount of dough
but will spread during baking to 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 inches.)
3. Place almonds on waxed paper. Drop other half of dough by level measuring teaspoonfuls
onto nuts. Place almond side up 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.
4. Bake both plain and almond cookies at 375 F for 6 minutes until set but not browned.
Cool l minute on cookie sheets. Remove to cooling racks. Cool completely.
5. Spread bottoms of plain cookies with jam; top with almond cookies, almond side up.
Press together to make sandwiches. Store in airtight container.
Makes 4 1/2 to 5 dozen cookies.

CHRISTMAS BRUNCH CASSEROLE
1 dozen eggs
1/2 Cup milk
8 oz. sour cream
about 2 Cups diced ham (may substitute sausage, cooked and drained, or cooked links cut
into bite-sized pieces, or crumbled bacon)
about 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, swiss, jack or combination, depending on your own
preferences.)
Beat together eggs and milk. (Crack eggs into bowl, and discard shells before you start
beating!) Fold in sour cream until well blended. Add your choice of meat or skip it for a
meatless version, and desired amount of cheese. (That's the beauty of this recipe - use
what YOUR family likes. We like lots of cheese!) Pour into buttered 9X13 glass baking pan.
(Aluminum may turn the eggs gray!) Bake at 350 F until set, and just beginning to turn
golden on top. Cut into squares. This will serve up to 12, depending on the size of the
squares you cut. Talk about versatile, you can't ruin it, so use as many eggs and as much
meat and cheese as you need to feed your group. Just keep the milk and sour cream in the
same general proportions to the eggs and use an appropriate size glass casserole. |
FUDGE
(This is so easy and fool-proof IF you follow the directions exactly!)
4 1/2 Cups Pure Cane Sugar (Domino's works best)
1 Can Evaporated Milk
1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
2 Sticks Butter
18 oz. Chocolate Chips (or any variety of chips, I like peanut butter and butterscotch, or
you could do chocolate mint. I'm going to try to swirl chocolate and peanut butter this
year.)
Nuts, if desired.
In a very heavy saucepan over med high heat combine sugar and evaporated milk. Cook,
stirring until mix comes to a full rolling boil; then boil EXACTLY 7 minutes, stirring
constantly and being careful not to burn.
Remove from heat. Add vanilla, butter, chips and nuts. Stir until butter and chips are
completely melted. Spread in well buttered 9 X 13" pan. Refrigerate at least 6 hours.
Cut in squares. It's outta this world and makes great gifts!
