Feed an Army (Mom M Bonus Recipe)

I am not really sure what was going on with this recipe, but that is a whole lot of potatoes and cheese. I believe that the cheese quantity is for 9 pounds grated. Who doesn't like potatoes and cheese ?

Sizzlers (Mom M and Papa Recipe #3 )

I am absolutely positive that these will not taste exactly the same even though I am using the recipe written out in my grandmother's hand. They will not taste the same because my Papa did not get the little sizzler steaks from the Publix butcher where he worked after my grandparent's retired to Florida. They will not taste the same because I am not making them on my grandparent's little gas grill. They will not taste the same because I never found out what "lemon juice (?)" means. They will not taste the same because my grandmother did not make them and my grandfather did not grill them. They will not taste the same because I can only hear in my mind, my grandmother saying "Well, these turned out pretty good". And mostly they will not taste the same because I am not eating them at the table with my "Mom and Papa". But I will have the memories. ...

Don't Waffle about your favorite recipe (Down a Sourdough Rabbit Hole #3)

I tried two different waffle recipes, One was using an overnight sponge and one was mixed 1/2 hour before making. The 1st time I made the overnight sponge recipe, I thought thye were really good but the the next few times, they were ok. I saw this quicker recipe without the overnight wait and gave it a try. I think I like the quicker version better. They seem to hold up better if sharing them and if eating over the next few days. This may already be a known idea, but reheating the waffles using the waffle iron the next day makes them turn out like you just made them. I also experimented with some whipped butters. I made a maple with maple syrup, a raspberry with raspberry jam and a lemon with a bit of lemon juice and zest. The raspberry was the biggest hit. Here are the two recipes I tried: Overnight Sponge Waffles And here is the 30 minute version 30 Minute Waffles My opinion is that the overnight ones seems a bit lighter, but the 30 minute ones were tastier and easier....

Buche De Noel (British Baking Show - Bake #2)

I have always wanted to make a Buche de Noel and this year I finally decided to jump in. It wasn't perfect but it looked pretty darn good and tasted great. And it was even gluten free so that everyone could enjoy it on Christmas Eve. Again, I did not find one recipe that fit the bill for what I was making so I used pieces of different recipes to make: A gluten free chocolate sponge, a french chocolate buttercream (so delicious) and meringue mushrooms as well as just regular whipped cream for the center. The "ribbons" Add the chocolate and in the oven. It is a very thin cake so make sure you watch the timing Dust with cocoa powder and sugar to roll it up while it is still warm Cool the cake completely while rolled up Fille with cream and.... re-roll. This was tricky and the cake was sticky. I am not sure if that is related to the gluten free cake or if it is just tricky. Even if it looks messe...
