Here is a recipe that is one of our family favorites during the holidays.

HOLIDAY FRUIT DROPS


1 cup shortening
2 cups brown sugar (packed)
2 eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp soda
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups broken pecans
1 cup candied cherries
1 cup candied pineapple
2 cups cut up dates

Mix shortening, sugar and eggs well. Stir in buttermilk. Measure flour by dipping method or by sifting. Blend dry ingredients and stir in. Stir in pecans, cherries, pineapple and dates. Chill 1 hour.
Heat oven to 400 degrees. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls of dough about 2-inches apart on lightly greased baking sheet. Place a pecan half on each cookie, if desired. Bake 8 to 10 minutes until almost no imprint remains when touched lightly. Makes about 8 dozen.
Note: If you use self-rising flour, omit soda and salt.

These are really delicious. I'm not a fruitcake person, but these are much better.
I really love fruit cake and will definitely make some of these. I wonder if a 'rum' flavored extract might give them that 'aged' flavor that a fruitcake would have. Are these soft cookies or crispy?

Hey Eppy
They're soft. Rum flavoring might be good since lots of fruitcake has rum in it.
I tasted these 3 or 4 years ago and have been making them ever since. My family doesn't think it would be Christmas without them.

Hi Everybody - -

I saw this thread up front again and came back to look in.

I did not know that mamabing had passed away and did not see anything about it in this thread.

Oh Lord, I have printed out at least 10 of her recipes and made about 5 of them.

Didn't she have young children or grandchildren. What happened? It must have been sudden. God love here, she gave so much to others here on this thread.

Thank you very much for your reply, gommie. I googled the thread and found it. You're right - - I was offline for almost two months at that time while I was moving.

I was wondering why I no longer saw her recipes. She surely took a tremendous amount of time to type all those recipes out.

Guess she is cooking for the angels now.

Here are a few of my favorite cookie recipes that I love to make at Christmas time. I started using cake mix many years ago, and the cookies always turn out beautifully. I'm looking forward to having a bake day with my soon-to-be three year-old grandson this Christmas.

Lemon Cookies
1 box Duncan Hines Lemon Cake Mix
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter
2 eggs
1 can Duncan Hines Lemon Frosting

Mix all ingredients until well blended. Dough will be stiff. Form into one inch balls and bake in 375 degree oven for 9 to 11 minutes. Let cool completely before frosting with Lemon Icing.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 box chocolate fudge cake mix
1/2 (1 stick) melted butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

Mix all ingredients until well blended. Dough will be stiff. Form into one inch balls and bake in 375 degree oven for 9 to 11 minutes.

I also substitute the chocolate chips with White Chocolate Chips for a nice variation.

Raisin Spice Cookies
1 box spice cake mix
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup raisins

Mix all ingredients until well blended. Dough will be stiff. Form into one inch balls and bake in 375 degree oven for 9 to 11 minutes.

Carrot Raisin Cookies
1 box carrot cake mix
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter
2 eggs
1/2 cup raisins

Mix all ingredients until well blended. Dough will be stiff. Form into one inch balls and bake in 375 degree oven for 9 to 11 minutes.

Cream Cheese Frosting
1 box 10x confectioner's sugar
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 stick butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla
4 tbs half & half

In large bowl, blend all ingredients until frosting is smooth. If icing is too thin, add a little more confectioner's sugar.

I usually ice the Raisin Spice and Carrot Raisin cookies with the cream cheese frosting once the cookies are completely cooled.

With all of the wonderful cake mixes available now, you can bake quite a lot of different cookies to share with your family and friends. And, I guarantee both kids and adults alike will love them. Enjoy!


oooooohhhh!~these recipes sound sooo yummy pink!~~an simple too!~lil ole me mite even be able ta handle makin em!~~thanks!~~ the holidays are comin!!!!yikes!~~


rudy2 - Hope you will enjoy making these cookies. And, with so many varieties of cake mixes, you can make a lot of great and different cookies.

Yup - - been on about a year now - - didn't post much in the beginning but I did print many of mammabing's recipes. One that I made that was very simple and good was her BLT Wraps - - and had to double the recipe. Everyone loved them.

Thanks again, as I was glad I could find that thread - - it was beautiful and she had many, many friends.

No kidding? I don't know how I missed that- have you been posting here that long or were you on of the other soaps..I bet that's it-- the only soap I watch is Y&R and not even it anymore--so that would explain how I missed you- maybe?

As I said, I have been on a year and only read the posts before I started posting. I have only posted on the Y&R MB board - - don't watch any other soaps, never have, but got hooked on Y&R because I love Nikki and Victor from way back in the day. Did come on this thread many times and printed out lots of recipes (just the very simple ones ) Had none to offer, though, because I am not good in the kitchen.

Getting ready to barbeque now for some friends - - I CAN make a good potato salad, and grilling can be done by the men!

Have a great remainder of the holiday weekend.

Eppy - Each box of cake mix will make a couple dozen (or more), depending on how big you make the balls of dough. For A LOT of cookies, I'll make the balls around one inch in size; for giant cookies, I'll make the balls two to three inches in size. I usually rolls the dough into balls to make a nice, round cookie. You can also drop them by the spoonfuls. Hope you will enjoy making (and eating) them!

Quote lovelyinlavendar: No Bake Cookies for Children to Make

2 cups sugar; 1/2 cups butter ;3 Tablespoons cocoa
1/2 cup milk; 3 cup oatmeal; 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
wax paper

Directions:

Have your wax paper spread and ready for the cookies.

An adult can assist with the boiling part. Boil together sugar, butter, cocoa and milk for approx 2 1/2 minutes stirring constantly.

Remove from heat and add vanilla and oatmeal. Stir quickly.

Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper.

Refridgerate to harden. YUM!!


Hi everyone
I finally made these cookies and they were very good. Elizabeth enjoyed helping and everyone enjoyed eating them.
Here's a recipe I use quite often with leftover mashed potatoes.

Potato Puffs
2 eggs
1 cup mashed potatoes
one-half cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Oil for deep frying

Beat eggs, add potatoes. Combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir into potato mixture. Heat oil to 375. Drop mixture by heapiing teaspoonfuls into hot oil. Fry 2-3 minutes, turning once, or until brown. They brown quickly. Drain on paper towel.

I usually don't fry foods too often, but I do these for a treat and they are so good when just cooked.

Hot Fudge Sauce
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 can (13.5 oz) evaporated milk
1/4 lb cold butter, cut in pieces
1 Tablespoon vanilla

This recipe doubles in size so I use a large saucepan.
Place sugar in pan with cocoa powder. Stir with wooden
spoon until well-blended. Add evaporated milk. Continue to stir till blended well. When mixed well, turn heat to medium. Stir constantly. Bring mixture to a boil for around 5 minutes. Let it boil for another five minutes, stirring constantly. Make sure chocolate doesn't burn. Remove from heat and add butter. Stir till melted and add vanilla.
This can be stored in refrigerator, reheat in microwave. Delicious over ice cream, or straight out of jar, like my kids do, me too.
