Oh yes! What I love about those flourless gems is you don't have to have very much to be satisfied. At that's saying a lot coming from a chocolate junkie like me!!
Don't feel dumb! How do any of us know how to do anything until we are shown or we read it! I didn't make butter until I was an adult...a neighbor friend accidentally over whipped her whipping cream and headed right in to butter...never knew it till then myself!
Homemade butter is so easy it's done many times in pre-school class in a jar for the little children to see how it's done! They add cream to the jar and keep shaking and passing it around until it gets solid!
Here's the basic recipe:
1 pint heavy cream
Salt to taste (I use kosher because it...
I'm with you on that one. I dieted from January 6 - around middle of March. Lost a whopping 10 pounds...depressing because I really deprived myself! Anyway, when I quit losing I just gave up. I think because I started eating home baked bread and no processed food it has helped the 10 pounds...
Well the weather is going to be FANTASTIC here this week! Temps in the high 60's low 70's and NO RAIN! You won't find me in the kitchen this week!
The bread machine will get bread duty but that's it!

You're welcome! Yes, oh my, SO addicting! Of course now that I've pulled my recipe out I'll have to make a batch. My family will do the happy dance. My oldest daughter likes to eat it with milk kefir.
I've read coconut oil mentioned several times here. I use it myself but where I use it the most is in my "famous" granola recipe. It's famous as far as my friends go because they always beg me to make jumbo batches and then share it with them. (Back to my commercial ovens, I can make the...
I was one of those kids that had to wear the brace to bed thing with weird boots. I was little and I have no memory of it. Kids are amazingly resilient and get used to things far better and faster than adults. You are being a great Mommy just being there for him and loving him.
They look fab! Enjoy! And yes, I love them big...I wouldn't call that a mistake! I make mine 2-3 ounce size with is probably about 2-3 tablespoons in size!
Cream of tartar is used to rise baked goods. I found that if I use baking powder and baking soda I got the same rise out of my Snickerdoodles.
I'm not completely saying that Crisco is evil but I do try to stay away from soy and mono and dyglycerides as much as I can. I do use Crisco to grease...
The difference between me and Betty? I use 100% butter, none of that shortening stuff goes in my cookies. And like I said, I found an alternative for cream of tartar which is expensive and not always on hand. So go with Betty or me, Miss Debbie!
