Grease and flour two 9 inch by 5 inch loaf pans. Unwrap caramels, and cut each into eight pieces. Toss the candy together with 1 tablespoon of the flour in a small bowl to prevent the pieces from sticking together. Set aside..

Apple Dumplings - Martha
2 cans Pillsbury crescent rolls
6 Gala apples
2 sticks butter (real)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 can Mountain Dew
Peel and slice apples...
Lay several apple slices on each crescent
roll.... using all the slices.
Roll the crescent roll around the apples and
put them in a 9x13 ungreased pan.
In a sauce pan melt butter... don't boil
just melt... add sugar to the butter and mix. This will be thick and the
sugar won't be melted, but that's ok.
Spoon the sugar and butter mixture over the
apple roll. Pour the Mountain Dew over all.
Bake @ 350 for 45 mins or until brown
Pecan Pie Muffins - Martha
1 cup packed brown sugar 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup chopped pecans 2/3 cup butter (no substitutes), melted 2 eggs, beaten In a bowl, combine brown sugar, flour and pecans; set aside Combine butter and eggs; mix well. Stir into flour mixture just until moistened. Fill greased and floured or paper-lined miniature muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until muffins test done. Remove immediately to cool on wire rack. Yields: about 2-1/2 dozen Butternut is one of my favorite squashes. We often bake a small butternut squash (about 1 pound) at home; we split it lengthwise, seed it, score the flesh with a knife, sprinkle on a little salt, and bake, skin side down, for 1 hour in a 400-degree oven. Excellent in soup and pureed, butternut squash is always welcome at our table. This gratin is quite rich and should be reserved for special occasions, like Thanksgiving. 1 large butternut squash (3 1/4 pounds), peeled and seeded (2 1/2 pounds) 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 1/2 cups heavy cream 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese Cut off and discard the stem of the squash, then cut the squash into two pieces by cutting through it horizontally at the bottom of the neck. This will make it easier to peel. Peel the cylindrical neck lengthwise, removing enough skin so that the orange flesh underneath is revealed. (Under the outer skin there is a layer of green, which should be removed.) Peel the round part of the squash by cutting around it in a spiral fashion with a sharp knife; it is easier to peel a round object in this manner. Cut the rounded part in half lengthwise, and, using a spoon, scoop out the seeds. Then cut the squash into 1/8-to-1/4-inch slices, either with a knife or in a food processor fitted with the slicing blade. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the squash slices in a large saucepan, cover them with water, and bring to a boil. Boil over high heat for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then drain in a colander. The pieces will break a little in cooking. Arrange pieces in a gratin dish, and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Pour on the cream, and stir gently with a fork to distribute the additions properly. Cover with the cheese, and bake for about 30 minutes. At serving time, brown the top of the gratin by heating it under a hot broiler for 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

In medium bowl stir together spinach, sour cream, mayo, soup mix, water chestnuts and green onions. Cover, refrigerate at least 2 hours This was a favorite of my Mother-in-law back in the early 1960s. It makes a large casserole and was always a hit at picnics and potlucks.

Lipton Onion Soup mix 1 large (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained 1-1/2 teaspoons nutmeg 4 1-pound cans kidney beans, drained In a very large frying pan, brown the ground beef with the sliced celery. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Pour into a large casserole dish and bake at 350* for 1 hour. **(see note) Boil 6 large potatoes with skins. Drain, cover and chill. Peel and slice into a buttered 9" X 13" baking dish. Combine: 1 can cream of chicken soup 1/2 cup sour cream 1 cup grated cheddar cheese 1/3 cup chopped onion Salt and pepper to taste Pour over potatoes and mix gently. Bake, uncovered, , at 350* for 30 minutes. ** **Note: Or do it the lazy way..my way...and use a 2# bag of frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed. I also bake it longer...probably 45 minutes or so, until it's nice and browned and bubbly.

Slice the eggplant thinb and dip in egg and bread crumbs. Fry,place pizza sauce and cheese on the slices. Add favorite toppings just like a regular pizza. Heat in the oven and serve. Even if you don't like eggplant it is great. Once prepared can be frozen and ready to be heated and served. 3-4 lb chuck roast 1 tsp. oregano (not ground) 2 tsp. lemon juice 2 whole cloves 5 bay leaves (3-5 depending on size) 1 pkg. dry beefy onion or onion soup mix. 3-4 pepperoncini peppers, just put slits in them Season the roast with season salt, garlic powder and pepper. Put in crockpot with the rest of the ingredients on top of that. Add enough beef broth or water to barely cover the roast. Cook on slow about 12 or 14 hours. The easiest way to shred the meat is with a potato masher. Check for seasoning and then add a couple of dashes of the pepperoncini juice. That is where the spiciness or heat comes from. Serve with Rolls or buns. You can put in the fridge for several hours if you want to get every bit of fat off of it if desired. Recipe is easily doubled. Freezes well also. Broccoli-Cauliflower

I buy the packaged 15 bean soup and cook hamburger and onions then add it to the beans and a jar of tomato juice. You can use ground turkey, or ham if you want but we like the hamburger.

This is a recipe that I came across last year, it is very tasty. I had
five not so large green peppers today and it worked out great. Also had
only cheddar cheese but that was fine, too. I don't use a lot of green
chilies so have a jar of pickled ones that I use for things like this.

COOKIES - FRIENDLY MARTIAN (DILLY’S) GIRL SCOUT MINT COOKIES
- ELEANOR (IL) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine cake mix, eggs, water, cooking oil, and cocoa. You will need to blend this together well, this will be a very sticky mess. Let stand for 20 minutes, and then shape into very small 1/2 inch balls. Place these balls on a cookie sheet 2 inches a part, and smash down flat. You will need to spray a large spoon with Pam to make them flat. Bake for about 8 minutes. Let cool until they reach room temperature. Heat chocolate chips in either the microwave, or in a double boiler. When completely melted add a couple drops of the mint flavoring. Be carefull not to add too much, it is a powerfull flavoring.

ELAINE (PA) What I did was substitute 1/2 cup sugar twin for 1/2 of the sugar ... that way with the diabetes...we are getting lots less sugar. (and calories). 3 TBSP Butter 3 TBSP flour ½ cup chopped onion (or more) 1 clove garlic (I use more) 1 16 oz can tomatoes ½ cup chopped green peppers (I use more) 2 bay leaves 1 ½ cups water ½ tsp. salt 1 tsp. oregano 1 tsp. thyme 1/4 tsp. hot pepper sauce (I don't measure) MEAT OF CHOICE: (For Shrimp Creole use Shrimp & Crab Meat) I use either chicken or smoked sausage or BOTH and I do the meat with the roux at the beginning. 1 TBSP Filéé powder I also use a bag of frozen gumbo mix (with Okra) HOT COOKED RICE In a large saucepan, melt butter, if you are using chicken and/or sausage brown it here then remove it, stir in flour, cook til golden brown 7-8 min., Stir in onion, & garlic til tender. Stir in undrained tomatoes, green pepper, bay leaves, oregano, thyme, hot pepper sauce, water, salt, Chicken and/or sausage, and mixed veggies (Okra). Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer covered for about 20 min. Remove bay leaves, (If making Shrimp Creole, stir in Shrimp and Crab meat at this point). Heat through add filéé powder to moderate amount of hot liquid and stir in. Serve over rice. Pass the hot sauce. Serves 5-6 Bonnie, this recipe makes a whole roaster full... we eat some and I freeze some for quick meals that are yummy. So you can cut it down if you like. First thing I do is cook 1 cup rice in 2 cups water for approx. 15 min. and add it to 2# hamburger meat ( I use Gr. chuck) Large onion diced 2 eggs salt & pepper Then I removed the core from 2 reg. sized heads of cabbage and stick a large fork into the hole... and submerge into boiling water... with another fork work the cabbage leaves loose and let them steep a minute or so in the boiling water so that they bend and roll easy. I work as I go... remove several leaves... steep and while the head is still in the water (softening) I remove the soft leaves from the boiling water and let them cool a little so I can handle them ... then put in a ball of meat mixture (about the size of a nice meatball - they will get smaller as the leaves get smaller) roll partway, then fold the sides over and finish rolling, lay folded side down in roasting pan... then I usually add a can of tomatoes... and I usually have the whole ones so I smush them up... and add several small cans or one large can of tomato sauce (tomato soup is good too) and add water to cover. (I add the rest of the cabbage on top - cause I love it so much) If I have more meat than cabbage, I make extra meat balls and lay them in the sauce. Some leaves are just too small to use and those I always add to the top. Toss in a little salt and pepper and a couple of bay leaves. Cook at 350 for a couple of hours... did mine about 3 hours today. - JOAN F (MN) 1 18.5-oz pkg spice cake 1 18.5-oz pkg white cake mix 2 4-serving pkgs instant vanilla pudding mix 1 12-oz box vanilla wafers, crushed green food coloring 6 to 10 Tootsie Rolls Confectioner's sugar 1 brand new cat litter pan 1 brand new plastic pooper scooper plastic flies (optional) Prepare the cakes and pudding according to package directions.

Make up the cake mix a directed. Pour 1/3 into a separate small bowl and add one package of raspberry Jell-O and 2 heaping tablespoons of raspberry jam. Take the 2/3 of cake mix(mine was yellow) and pour half into an oiled bundt pan. Top that with all of the raspberry flavored cake mixture. Top with the remaining yellow cake mix. Bake at 350 for about 45-50 minutes. (I still have my Mom's old cast iron bundt pan so have to cook mine longer.) Check with a tester near the middle and make sure your cake is done.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. If you are making the crust yourself, sift flour, sugar, and cinnamon into the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Add butter pieces and pulse about eight times, or until mixture is the texture of cornmeal. Add egg yolks and process about 12 seconds, or until mixture is evenly blended. It will NOT form a ball. Press about 1/3 of the dough over the bottom of a 10-inch spring form pan, covering it evenly. Bake for 13 minutes. Remove pan from oven and let cool on a cake rack. When cool, press remaining dough evenly around the sides of the pan. Carefully brush the prepared crust with the egg white mixture. This will help seal the dough. Set aside. Now continue with the filling. Place cheese, sugar, spices, and beat with an electric mixer until the cheese is smooth. Scrape sides of bowl and add the 5 jumbo eggs. Beat on high speed for 5 minutes, scraping sides of bowl several times during this process. Then add 2 cups of the reserved pumpkin puree and beat until evenly blended. Pour filling into prepared pan. Fill a large pan with hot water and place it on the lower oven rack. Place cheesecake on upper shelf and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove cake from oven and place on a cooling rack while you make the topping. Remove water pan and increase heat to 450 degrees. Blend topping ingredients until smooth and spoon evenly over the cake. Smooth with a spatula. Return cake to oven and bake for 10 minutes. Turn oven off, leave oven door ajar, and cool cake for 1 hour. Then immediately place cake in refrigerator and chill overnight.

POTATOES KING RANCH CASSEROLE - MarieAnn (FL) Cook onion and green pepper in butter till tender but not browned. Remove from heat and add tomatoes, soups, picante sauce, and chili powder; mix well. Line bottom of shallow 3 qt. casserole with half the tortilla strips. Top with half the chicken and half the vegetable mixture. Repeat layers( tortilla strips, chicken ,vegetable. mixture) .Sprinkle with the cheddar. Bake uncovered at 350E° for 35 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Serve with additional picante sauce ,if desired. Makes 6 to 8 servings. 3 cups flour 1 Tbs.. baking powder 1 Tbs.. baking soda 1 Tbs.. ground cinnamon 1 tsp. salt 3 ea. 1/4 pound sticks butter (1 ½ cups) at room temperature 1 ½ cups sugar 1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar 3 eggs 1 Tbs.. vanilla 3 cups semi sweet chocolate chips 3 cups old fashioned rolled oats 2 cups sweetened flaked coconut 2 cups chopped pecans Mix flour, soda baking powder and cinnamon in a bowl. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter on medium until smooth and creamy. Gradually adding the sugars and beat to combine well. Add eggs, one at a time beating well after each. Beat in vanilla. Gradually stir in the flour mix and stir just until combined. Stir in the chips, oats, coconut and pecans. Mix well. A quarter cup of dough will make a huge cookie, so if using that for measure, place the dough at least three inches apart on cookie sheet. It will make about three dozen cookies. Otherwise about two Tbs.. Dough for smaller cookies and it will render about six dozen. Bake at 350ºº 17-20 minutes for the big cookies, 5-18 minutes for the smaller ones. Rotate the pan halfway thru. The edges should be lightly browned. I take Lawrys Garlic Spread concentrate and spread it all over the roast. Then I sprinkle heavy with season pepper, and a little less heavy with season salt. Bake it in an open shallow pan until done to your liking. I like mine pretty well done. This leaves a nice crispy outer crust and oh so good and makes an excellent dripping. I use the left overs for French dip sandwiches. Chocolate

Joan W (NY) 3 medium potatoes - sliced 1 medium onion - diced 2 large stalks of celery - diced 1 to 2 tablespoons of butter (not margarine) salt & pepper Simmer about 20-25 minutes in just enough water to avoid sticking. Mash the potatoes just a little with a spoon. Add a small can of evaporated milk. Serve with crackers or a good bread. For more people just increase the amounts proportionally. You don't need to increase the evaporated milk quite as much as other ingredients Margot (MN) Potato & Cream Cheese Soup - Peggy (KS) This one is rich but you can add low fat replacements. 8 cups of chicken broth 2 bags frozen shredded or chunk hash browns ½ White onion chopped fine 1 TLBS.

Salmon with Cucumber Salsa - John (SC) STUFFED EGGPLANT
MANICOTTI - MarieAnn (FL) Blackberry Cobbler - Peggy (KS) To be honest with you, I am embarrassed to even send this in. I do not have any proportions, as I add things while I prepare it. I use (when available) either 1015 or Wall Walla or the other seasonal onions, I chop them fine and add them to the Miracle Whip adding a couple teaspoons of ordinary mustard and 2 Tablespoons of good quality apple cider vinegar. Refrigerate this. I cook the potatoes at this time of year in their jackets, adding salt to season them. If the potatoes are large I halve them. While the potatoes are cooking and cooling, I boil the eggs, again the amount depends on the quantity of potatoes used. I put the ribs of celery in very cold or ice water , amount depending on how many potatoes are used. After the potatoes are cooked, peeled and cold, I add the Miracle Whip mixture, then the chopped celery and diced eggs. Salt and pepper according to taste . I do add a teaspoon of sugar, which enhances the flavor. Then cover and chill. Deviled Eggs - Margot
