Delicio Recipe List

This recipe is a family favorite at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Cornbread Casserole: 1 box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix 1 can whole kernel corn drained 1 can creamed corn NOT drained 8 oz. sour cream 2 eggs slightly beaten 2 sticks of butter melted Bake at 350-degrees for 50 minutes to one hour. Drain the full kernel corn, but NOT the creamed corn. Stir sour cream into the corn bread mix in a large bowl. Mix in the two eggs. Add the melted butter... The creamed corn... and, the full kernel corn and mix well. Spray a 9 X 13 inch cake pan with non-stick spray. If you are making this ahead to reheat in a microwave later, use a glass pan like this. Spread the mixture in the pan and bake for 50 minutes to one hour until golden. We never have any leftovers of this yummy side dish!

For dinner tonight, I had steak and sweet potato fries. A rare treat, but yum! As an accompaniment, I purchased frozen sweet potato fries (Alexia is the brand) from Costco and whipped up a little fry sauce (see recipe below) to go with it. Add a small tossed salad (which I didn't ;-) ), and you are set! 2 flat iron steaks (the recipe I have called for flank steak, which I'm sure would be good, but the butcher recommended flat iron steak, which he said was less expensive and more tender) 1/4 cup soy sauce 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey 1 teaspoon vinegar 1 clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated, or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger Lay steak in a glass casserole dish and poke the meat all over with a fork. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over the steak, cover, and marinate for several hours or overnight. Remove the steak from the marinade and broil or grill 4 to 5 minutes per side (meat should be slightly pink in the middle). Let the...

This creamy sauce is a delicious accompaniment with ham. It makes ham just a little more fancy. The recipe comes from a former neighbor, Becky Ririe. 2 cups whipping cream 2 egg yolks 1/2 cup sugar 1 1/2 tablespoons flour 4 teaspoons dry mustard 1/2 cup vinegar Blend the cream and egg yolks together and set aside. Combine sugar, flour, and dry mustard in the top portion of a double boiler over boiling water. Gradually add the cream mixture, stirring constantly. Cook until thickened. Gradually stir in the vinegar. Makes about 2 1/2 cups.

This is one of my mom's favorite bar cookies, and mine too. These are so easy to whip up, and they freeze well. 4 eggs, slightly beaten 3/4 cup vegetable oil 2 cups sugar 1 small can (about 15 ounces) pumpkin 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger 3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg 3/4 teaspoon ground cloves 3/4 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 cups all-purpose flour Whole pecans (optional) With an electric mixer, blend the eggs, oil, sugar, and pumpkin; set aside. Stir together the dry ingredients and then combine with the pumpkin mixture and beat until blended. Pour mixture into a greased and flour-dusted 10 x 15-inch jelly roll pan, or divide between two 9-inch square baking pans. Bake at 350 degrees until edges begin to pull away from sides and center springs back when lightly touched, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool in the pan. Frost with a double batch of Penuche Frosting . Vanilla cream cheese frosting also works great....

I'm going to interrupt Pumpkinpalooza briefly for an apple crisp recipe. This was served at a recent dinner with family and friends. What I find interesting about it is that it includes graham crackers. But most importantly, this apple crisp is delicious comfort food. This recipe comes from my sister Emily. 4-6 large apples 16 graham cracker squares (2 1/2-inch squares) 1 1/2 cup packed brown sugar 1 cup rolled oats 1 cup flour 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 teaspoon nutmeg 1 cup butter, melted Prepare topping first. Finely chop graham crackers with food processor (I just put them in a Ziploc bag and rolled with a rolling pin). Combine crumbs, sugar, oats, flour, and spices. Add butter and mix well. Peel, core, and slice apples. Prepare enough apples to fill a 9 x 13 Pyrex dish 3/4 full. Spoon topping mixture over apple slices. Microwave on high for 12-15 minutes, or until apples are tender; turn dish after 6 minutes. (I wanted the topping somewhat crisp and my dish didn't fit in my mi...

Wow! I'm in pumpkin heaven! Although I just tried this recipe for the first time tonight, these are some of the best muffins I've ever made! Warm and delicate muffins, just out of the oven, with a deliciously sweet cream cheese filling. So good! Two thumbs way up for this recipe even though it takes a little more work than normal. This recipe, which my friend Angie led me to, comes from a blog called Annie's Eats . I followed her recipe pretty much to the letter except when it came to the topping. I'm sure there is nothing wrong with Annie's topping, and I'll probably give it a try next time, but I decided to do a little experimenting. For half of the muffins, I thought that I'd go "topless" and sprinkle nothing at all on them. They are already plenty sweet and plenty rich. For the other dozen muffins, I did more of a brown sugar streusel topping. I mixed together about 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and a few tablespoons flour (no butt...
