	Mincemeat Cookies ~ The Old Fashioned Way by Amos Miller I have always loved mincemeat - pie with vanilla ice cream or cookies and cocoa. This is how we make them, except here I will substitute Borden's Nonesuch Mincemeat, or Robertson's (preferred) in a jar instead of homemade mincemeat. You can substitute your favorite shortening (vegetable works great) while I will use rendered leaf…	3 votes 2 reviews 10 comments 35613 views

	Lime Gelatin with Pears and Cherries by Salad Foodie My aunt made this gelatin frequently in winter especially during the holidays, and with its predominant green and red colors, it makes an appealing luncheon dessert. The recipe posted is as close as my memories allowed. However today with the variety of health issues guests may have, I frequently offer 2 versions, the one below and a…	1 vote 6147 views

	Cherry Winks ~ Classic Cookies by Amos Miller This is the original recipe for a cookie that won the 2nd Pillsbury Bake Off. They contain dates, pecans, maraschino cherries, cornflakes and a kiss of vanilla extract. I have followed the original recipe but you G-F members will see my modifications for you in the Ingredints below. I've adapted the recipe for gluten intolerant…	1 vote 3 comments 12923 views
	“Bear Sign” (Or… a more polite name: “Nut & Berry Shortbread Bars”) by Kevin Olomon During the off-season, when salmon aren’t readily available up north, Alaskan bears eat mainly nuts and berries. So to track a bear in the woods, you simply look to the forest floor and watch for “bear sign”. Need I say more? Ha! These are SO easy…	6 votes 3 reviews 2 comments 12477 views
	Creole Pralines by Amos Miller Better than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy! It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the…	5 votes 2 reviews 4 comments 10219 views
	Uncle Amos' Molasses Cookies by Amos Miller This is an old stand-by, perfect for the holidays, for winter, for enjoying with a glass of milk, or hot coffee, tea or cocoa. The beautiful thing is that these cookies get better everyday - if you can stand to have them around without consuming them! This is a make-the-dough-one-day and bake-the-cookies-the-next project, so…	4 votes 3 reviews 4 comments 8211 views
	Blueberries with Lime Sugar & Citrus Confit by Amos Miller This is one of my absolute favorite berry desserts and comes from Tony Bourdain and Les Halles Restaurant in NYC. I have had the audacity to make just one minor modification to the recipe, but I have no regrets, and neither will you. We grow blueberries all season long at Walnut Ridge Farm, so there are always opportunities to try…	6 votes 6 reviews 6 comments 18153 views
	Molasses Cake by Dominick Costa I don’t know why, but I think of Molasses as a fall / winter ingredient. It’s not. But for me, I most commonly use it during the fall or winter. Here we have a Molasses Cake. I tried researching the origins, but came up short. I asked around, and supposedly, back in the day, some wise person who had no sugar for a cake decided to use…	1 vote 1 comment 6911 views

	Peanut Butter Fudge by Candice Goodyear I found this recipe online at "Joy of cooking.com" I tried it and it is just to die for. Plus, it is the easiest fudge recipe I have found to date. It gets eaten as fast as I make it. This recipe is good for up to 1 to 1 ½ weeks in an airtight container. Or you may freeze.	2 votes 1 review 9554 views
