[RecipesAndMore] Messy Porkchops
Messy Porkchops 4 pork chops salt pepper oregano dry mustard brown sugar 1 can tomato sauce Sprinkle pork chops with salt and pepper and brown in skillet. Remove pork chops from skillet and place in a baking dish. Sprinkle liberally with oregano and brown sugar. Add a pinch of dry mustard to each pork chop. Take tomato sauce and spoon evenly over each pork chop (if necessary, you can add a little bit of water to make the tomato sauce go a little farther). Bake at 350 for 30 - 45 minutes or until chops are tender. Note: You can skip the skillet browning step if you choose. If so, place chops directly in baking dish, cover with all ingredients and then bake at 350 for 1 hour. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

Hi, I must have accidentally deleted this recipe posted yesterday for fun fajitas; could some one kindly send it back? thanks! Sandy - Original Message - From: Helen h...@sympatico.ca To: RecipesAndMore@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, March 10, 2009 9:41 PM Subject: [RecipesAndMore] Chocolate Raspberry Brownies Chocolate Raspberry Brownies These chocolate brownies are loaded with chocolate and raspberry flavor. Make these brownies for a weekend treat or special occasion. Ingredients: . 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar . 4 large eggs . 1/2 teaspoon salt . 2 teaspoons vanilla . 1/2 cup raspberry preserves or jam (seedless or not) . 1 cup melted butter (8 ounces) . 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted . 1 cup all-purpose flour . chopped pecans, about 1/2 cup, optional . 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, optional . **Optional Topping** . 1 tablespoon raspberry preserves or jam (seedless or not) . 1/2 to 2/3 cup confectioners' sugar Preparation: Heat oven to 325°. Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan. Beat sugar with eggs and salt until thick and lemon-colored, about 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in the vanilla and jam until smooth and well blended. Stir in the melted butter until blended, then stir in cocoa and flour. Add chocolate chips, if using. Spread in prepared pan and sprinkle with chopped pecans, if using. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until set. The brownies will be soft and moist, but shouldn't be runny in the center. If a toothpick comes out with batter, let them bake a little longer. These brownies are soft and sticky to cut, so let them cool thoroughly. For optional topping, heat the raspberry preserves; stir in the confectioners' sugar until the mixture reaches the desired consistency. If the mixture is a little too thick, add hot water, a drop or two at a time, until you can drizzle the mixture.

[RecipesAndMore] TIP
o tenderise tough cuts of meat rub both sides with a mixture of olive oil and vinegar and pop in the fridge for a couple of hours before cooking. A single candle can illuminate an entire room. A true friend lights up an entire lifetime.

[RecipesAndMore] Friday The 13th Facts.
Hotels rarely have a room number 13. Usually it is called 12a or 14. Same with floors of buildings and the elevators without a #13 button. Highways sometimes will skip exit 13 altogether also. There are 13 steps leading to the gallows. 13 knots in a hangman's noose. 13 feet which the guillotine blade falls. Certain ocean liners will be held in dock until after midnight to appease passenger's fears on Friday the 13th. The US Seal has 13 stars, bars, feathers in the eagle's tail, 13 bars in one claw, 13 olive branches in the other. A single candle can illuminate an entire room. A true friend lights up an entire lifetime.

[RecipesAndMore] Chocolate Irish Tipsy Cake
Chocolate Irish Tipsy Cake INGREDIENTS: 1 package chocolate cake mix 1 (3-4-ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix 3/4 cup Irish whiskey or bourbon, divided 1/2 cup cooking oil 4 jumbo or extra large eggs, at room temperature 3/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup butter or margarine 1/4 cup water 1 teaspoon lemon juice whipped cream for garnish DIRECTIONS: In a large bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, 1/2 cup Irish whiskey, and oil, add eggs and beat at medium speed of an electric mixer for 4 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Spoon into a greased and floured 10-inch bundt or tube pan. Bake in a preheated moderate oven (350 degrees) for 45 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the cake comes out clean. When cake is almost done, prepare syrup. Combine sugar, butter, water, and lemon juice in a small heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil slowly, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in remaining 1/4 cup Irish whiskey or bourbon. Turn cake out onto two large sheets of aluminum foil placed together to form the shape of a cross. Let cake cool for 10 minutes, top side up for tube cake and upside down for bundt cake. Using a skewer or long bamboo pick, make holes all over top and sides of hot cake. Drizzle syrup very slowly over cake, being careful that too much does not run into any cracks on top of cake. Bring foil up around cake and wrap securely. Cake may be served when completely cool, or store in an airtight container overnight. Cake may be wrapped securely in foil and stored in the refrigerator for several weeks or in a freezer for up to six months. Serve with whipped cream. Yield: 1 10-inch tube cake --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
