The following recipes were submitted by Dale Snider. If you have any holiday recipes you would like to add, just email Amy at: amy.seiter@gmail.com.


Microwave Fudge

2 Bags milk chocolate chips
1 Can Eagle Brand milk
3 Tbs. butter
Dash of salt
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix all together
Microwave 3 minutes
Stir hard until smooth
Pour into a buttered 8x8" or 9x9" pan.
*If you want to add nuts...put them in after you Microwave.
Refrigerate. This is a family favorite and makes a nice gift.


Melt-Away Cookies

1/2 lb. butter
1/3 Cup powder sugar
3/4 cup cornstarch
1 cup flour

Sift powder sugar, cornstarch and flour into soft butter, cream together.
Using a teaspoon, take a spoon full of dough and make a ball in the palm of your hand.
Place on greased cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes but watch carefully. Let rest for a few minutes before
removing from the pan. They are very fragile.

Frosting:
1 3oz. cream cheese
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup powder sugar.
Mix together and add a drop of food coloring of your choice. Red or green is fun for Christmas.
Put a dab on each cookie, as they are crumbly.
This is my Grand children's favorite, they also like to help make them.


Stuffed Mushrooms

$0 large fresh whole mushrooms
1 lg. sausage roll, seasoned with sage and thyme.
Bread crumbs (1 or 2 slices of bread)
1 tsp. dried parsley.
1 8oz. cream cheese, room temp.
cooking oil.
Finely chopped mushroom stems.

Soak mushrooms in salt water 10-20 minutes. Rinse, remove stems and set stems aside
on paper towel. Brown and crumble sausage. Drain before using. While meat is cooking,
chop stems. Combine chopped stems, bread crumbs, meat, parsley and cream cheese.
Stuff each mushroom cap with meat mixture. Place on cookie sheet or in 9x13" baking dish,
stuff side up, dot the top of each mushroom with oil and bake at 350 degrees for minutes.
This is a very yummy holiday appetizer.


This last recipe is one that our family (the Seiter family) loves and is so easy to make.

Easy Toffee

35 saltine cracker squares
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup butter or margarine
2 cups milk chocolate chips

Cover a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place the crackers on top. Melt the brown sugar with the butter in a pan, stir, and boil hard for 2 minutes. Pour over the crackers and bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. Immediately cover the crackers with the chocolate chips. As the chocolate melts, spread it evenly over the crackers; chill. Peel off the foil and break the candy into pieces. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.
