Basic Crepes



4 Eggs (1/4 C. Dehydrated Eggs + 1/2 C. Water)

1 C. Flour (1/2 C. Whole Wheat Flour + 1/2 C. All Purpose Flour)

1 C. Milk (3 T. Powdered Milk + 1 C. Water)

2 T. Butter, Melted

2 t. Sugar

1/2 t. Salt

Measure all ingredient into blender (you don’t need to re-constitute your eggs or milk just throw the powder and milk in and let the blender do the work!). Pour scant 1/4 C. batter onto lightly greased 8″ pan. (You’ll know your pan is hot enough when you throw water on the pan and it “dances” around the pan.) Tilt pan to coat bottom evenly with batter. (Basically, move the pan around until the batter is a circle and fills the pan) Cook over medium heat until brown and turn to brown second side.

Old Fashioned Brownies



This recipie for brownies is my son's favorite. He is now 21 but ever since he was small he would ask me to make these anytime his friends came over. They all loved them! To this day, when I see his friends they always mention how much they loved this treat!



They're fast & DELICIOUS. And the great thing about this recipe is that you can dress them up for company by cutting them up like petit fours and putting some white frosting with a cherry, or you might just pour regular chocolate chips after they come out of the oven and spread it around after the chips are melted (cheaper than buying frosting). You can swirl them with cream cheese (mixed with one egg & 1/4 c. sugar) before putting them in the oven and make swirl brownies--quite honestly--they're great!

2 Eggs

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 tsp. salt

1 tsp. vanilla

1 tsp. old stale strong coffee

3/4 stick butter

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

3/4 cup all purpose flour

Melt butter & chocolate chips in the microwave for 1 minute (stir to blend). Meanwhile, in medium size bowl, beat eggs lightly with a a wooden spoon. Stir in sugar, salt, vanilla, & coffee. Add the melted butter and chocolate chips to the mix. Stir in flour until it is all well blended. Do not overbeat! Spread mixture into a greased 8 inch square pan. Bake at 325 degrees for about 25 minutes. Brownies should still be soft and not overdone. Let cool in pan and cut into 12 regular size or 24 small bars.

CutOut Cookies



This is the recipe for sugar cookies that my Mom has been making since I was little--and I still think they are the best ever! I truly believe it is the nutmeg in the recipe--it gives it such an interesting taste! For icing, just use your favorite powdered sugar recipe. The other recipe is one my Mom got from a lady at church--they were always a hit at Potlucks!



4 C. sifted all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp nutmeg

3/4 c butter, softened

1 1/4 c sugar

2 eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract



On sheet of waxed paper, sift flour with baking powder, salt & nutmeg, set aside.



In large bowl, beat on high speed the butter, granulated sugar, eggs & vanilla until light & fluffy.



With wooden spoon, stir in 1/2 of flour mixture. Stir in remaining flour mixture, mixing with hands if necessary.



Refrigerate dough, covered, several hours.



Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Divide dough into 4 parts, refrigerate until ready to roll out. Roll out dough, 1/8" thick.



Place cut out cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.



Bake 8 min or until set & lightly browned around the edges.



Let cool, and frost. Makes 3-4 dozen.
