Dear Subscribers,
Please accept my
apologies for the missing issues this week. I have been battling the
flu and was unable to get the ezine out to you Monday through Wednesday
this week. I am hopefully back on my feet now and things should be
back to normal. Have a great week!

baked right in a jar? Did you hear right?
Yes, that's right, they are baked in the jar. Is this safe?
Certainly, it can be! The jars you will need
to use are wide-mouth pint size, thus the names for these recipes:
'Pint Sized Cakes'. Wonderful for gifts or
storing ahead! Get

Help!
My super finicky daughter has decided that she LOVES hot pockets
(especially ham &
cheese). I can't stand the thought of her eating all the preservatives &
junk that go into
the store bought ones. Does anyone have a good, healthy homemade "hot
pocket"
recipe? Thanks in advance,
June

least 1 hour. Can also
half the recipe and make in loaf pan. Put parchment paper in pan
first, then lift out and
have homemade (and better) viennetta! Drizzling with chocolate
after removing from loaf
pan makes it prettier.

You don't say what kind of desserts you are looking for, so I am
including a variety. I have
tons of dessert and cookie recipes. Most cake, cookie, pie recipes, etc.
can be made
and the nuts omitted and it doesn't make any difference, unless it is
something like
pecan pie where the nuts are an integral part of the recipe.
Surprise Carrot Cake
One 8 ounce package of Philadelphia Brand cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup of sugar
1 egg, beaten
2 cups of flour
1 3/4 cup of sugar
2 teaspoons of baking soda
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of oil
3 eggs, beaten
3 cups of shredded carrots
Combine the cream cheese, sugar and egg, mixing until well blended. Set
aside.
Combine dry ingredients. Add combined oil and eggs, mixing just until
moistened.
Fold in carrots. Reserve 2 cups of batter; pour remaining batter into
greased and floured
9 inch Bundt pan. Pour cream cheese mixture over batter; carefully spoon
reserved batter
over cream cheese mixture, spreading to cover. Bake at 350ºF. for 55
minutes or until
wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove
from pan. Cool
thoroughly. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired. Serves 12.
Pear Sorbet
2 cans of pears in heavy syrup (or 1 in heavy syrup and 1 in juice)
1 tsp. almond extract
3 Tbsp. crystallized ginger
Fresh mint sprigs
Place cans of fruit in the freezer overnight or for at least 8 hours.
When ready to
assemble, remove cans from the freezer and place in hot water for
1 - 2 minutes. Open cans, place fruit in the food processor and add
almond extract and
ginger and process until smooth. Place in individual bowls and garnish
with mint sprigs.
The Skinny: If you use pears in light syrup or their own juices it will
change the taste and
texture of this recipe.

This is for Laurie. This is a very filling salad,
and is definitely a meal in itself. You can
add as much as you like per person, just increase the amounts of salad
ingredients and
make extra dressing if you have big eaters. Also, it's a very pretty salad
for presentation.
It's very good.
