Re: [CnD] Cookie Press?

Is that ever the truth.  I tried it once and with the electric press, the 
dough kept on shooting all over the place.  If you still enjoy the Swedish 
sprits cookies as I do, you should consider trying the regular cookie press. 
Even though at first it is a bit aggravating, you will quickly get the hang 
of it.

I had an electric cookie press once. I don't know what happened to it
though. I think I gave it away for lack of use. My problem was not knowing
what was shooting out of the thing. When I lightly touched it to see if it
was correct, I messed it up and if it had been perfect it wasn't anymore.

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for opinions and advice.  Have any of you used a cookie press
successfully?  If so, is there a particular brand that you'd recommend?

I'm not a fan of rolling out dough but I'd like to make Christmas shapes 
for

my grandkids.

[CnD] Classic Pecan Pie off the bottle of Karo syrup

2019-11-27 Thread Marilyn Pennington via Cookinginthedark
Classic Pecan Pie off the bottle of Karo syrup

, I make this one

perfect and easy every time, you can use either dark or light

Karo syrup

 

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 55 to 60 minutes

Yield: 1 pie

 

3 eggs

1 cup sugar

1 cup Karo® Light OR Dark Corn Syrup

2 tablespoons butter OR margarine, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) pecans

1 (9-inch) unbaked or frozen** deep-dish pie crust

 

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Beat eggs slightly with fork in medium bowl. Add sugar, Karo®

Corn Syrup, butter and vanilla; stir until blended. Stir in

pecans. Place pie dough in pie pan. Pour pecan filling into pie

crust.

Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until knife inserted halfway between

center and edge comes out clean. Cool on wire rack.

**To use prepared frozen pie crust: Place cookie sheet in oven

and preheat oven as directed. Pour filling into frozen crust and

bake on preheated cookie sheet.

TIPS: Pie is done when center reaches 200°F. Tap center surface

Hi,


I may have asked this before a long time ago. But can anyone recommend a good 
kitchen  scale which is usable by a totally blind person? I'd like to have a 
talking scale, but the one that I tried was so easily breakable that it was 
pathetic.


Thanks,

~Ann

I used to have an electric press.  Impossible for us to use, because it 
shoots out so fast.  Probably not impossible, but I couldn't use it.
