I had heard about Dorothy Buhr's amazing desserts for months from my husband before I sampled some of her food. When I found out that she and her two friends, Verna Ackerman and Janet Cornelius, and made a cookbook documenting their three families favorite recipes, I was thrilled. The name of the cook book is the first letters of their last names. Dorothy was kind enough to give me one and I have handed them out as prizes in my cooking class. The desserts were amazing but I really loved the Russian carrot salad. The salad has all the flavors that I love. It's tart, and sweet from the sugar, carrots and apples. I usually bring the salad to a potluck and have friends guess the ingredients. This salad should be eaten within a couple of hours because the grated apples turn brown.<br />
<br />
If you are interested in getting a copy of their ABC Grannies cookbook ($14), you can email them at <span style="font-weight: bold;">jcorn@wigi.us</span> or <span class="gI"><span class="go"><span style="font-weight: bold;">dbuhr39@yahoo.com</span> to get additional shipping costs.</span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;">Russian Carrot Salad by Janet Cornelius</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">If you are looking for a salad dressing that is not mayo based, look no further than this recipe. It is so good that we have it on a daily basis. After using some Dijon mustard from the original bottle, I add more lemon juice, olive oil, black pepper to the Dijon mustard bottle and mix. The salad dressing is ready to go anytime using the original Dijon mustard squeeze bottle. </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My friend, A, sent this recipe about 6 months ago to me. She had it at her friend, I's one day. I am not sure why it took me so long to try it. I made for my husband's lunch and ended up eating it for breakfast. You can add toasted nuts on there or golden raisins. I thank her friend, I, for letting me share this with you. I have had this salad with all baby arugula or mixed with baby greens. The salad is light and refreshing for summer. I hope that you give it a try and not wait 6 months like I did before I tried it.</span></div>

My friend, Larry, shared these chocolates with me and I could not stop eating them. The chocolates look really sweet. They are not too sweet but you can really taste the dark chocolate. He made them with salted peanuts. I made these with unsalted toasted peanuts, pistachios, and pecans. They make about 4 cookie sheets worth of chocolate even though they were on the bigger side. There is nothing like the smell of melted chocolate in a crockpot.<br />
<br />
1 package of chocolate candy quik<br />
1 dark chocolate bar (60% or more, in the baking section above the chocolate chips)<br />
1 package of milk chocolate chips<br />
1 package of semi-sweet chocolate chips<br />
<br />
2-3 lbs of any kind of nuts<br />
<br />
In a crockpot, melt the chocolate on high if you are in a hurry or low if you have more time. Stir the chocolate with a spoon to make sure all the chocolate have been melted. Add nuts or put the chocolate in candy molds. Using two spoons, make chocolate piles on wax paper on a cookie sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate sets. If you have too much, you can freeze the chocolate or store in a covered container in the refrigerator.Cooking with tienhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11652169775105334576noreply@blogger.com0
