Pecan Pralines
Ingredients:
3/4 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
½ cup evaporated milk
½ tsp vanilla
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 cup pecans
Directions:
This recipe requires some care, a watchful eye, and a candy
thermometer. The sugar mixture must reach 235 degrees or the "soft
ball" stage ... patience, it will happen. If the candies don't
harden in ten minutes just return to the pan and cook some more.
In a heavy saucepan, slowly heat the sugars together with the milk
until it reaches 235 F on the candy thermometer. Remove the pan
from the heat and stir in the butter, vanilla and pecans. Stir
until well blended. Drop by the spoonful onto waxed paper. Let
stand until hardened and cool.

I hope this helps people understand cream more, Lois
````````````````````
Cream Varieties:
Creams vary according to the amount of butterfat they have.
~Lightest of all is half & half, which is half milk, half cream
and
weighs in with a butterfat content between 10.5 - 18%.
It can't be whipped, but it's nice with coffee, or on cereal.
~Light cream = coffee cream = table cream is richer at 18 - 30% fat,
but it still can't be whipped.
~Light whipping cream = whipping cream (with a butterfat content
of 30
-
36%)
~Heavy cream = heavy whipping cream (with at least 36% fat) are heavy
enough to whip, and aren't as prone as lower-fat creams to curdling
in
sauces.
The higher the butterfat content, the less beating is required to
get
whipped cream. Europeans go for even heavier creams, like double
cream (with a butterfat content of 42%), extra-thick double cream

Does anyone out there have an easy recipe for a fruit/nut roll made
with graham crackers, cheeries and nuts. My husband says his mom
used
to fix in when he was a small boy. It does not require cooking and
I
would love to make him one. Thanks - Happy holidays and I truly enjoy
all of the recipes.

Subject: pie crusts
This is in responce to Andrea who wanted a fail safe recipe for pie
crusts. Fran from Ohio
Mary Ohle's Pie Crust
Mix with a pastry blender:
6 c flour
2 1/2 c shortening (5 sticks oleo)
2 tbsp sugar
Mix in a measuring cup, and fill with water to make one cup:
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tsp vinegar (YES)
1 tsp salt
IN A VERY LARGE BOWL:
Add the two together. Mold with your hands.
(You can't handle this too much now or later)
Chill before rolling or keep in the refrigerator
up to one week. OR you can freeze it and use whatever amount
you like after returning it to room temperature.
This makes 6 (9 1/2 oz) crusts or 7 (7 3/4 oz) crusts.
Now don't laugh but I do weigh them and then make into flat circle
before freezing---Fran
To keep pre-baked shells from shrinking, prick them generously and
chill them 1/2 hour
before baking.

Re: Carmel cake (11-22-02)
In the frosting recipe there should be 1-1 1/2 lbs of confectioners
sugar added to this recipe. Sorry for omitting this ingredient.
