Re: [CnD] a resapi request pleas
Yes, it is. Here is a recipe I use a lot. I have made the regular fudge but have never tried the variations given at the bottom of this recipe. I got the recipe from one of the cooking lists I am on; I don't remember which list. Enjoy, Becky 2-Minute Fudge 1 pound confectioners sugar 1/2 cup cocoa 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup butter -- or margarine 1 cup nuts -- chopped In 1 1/2 quart casserole stir sugar, cocoa, salt, milk and vanilla together until partially blended (mixture is too stiff to thoroughly blend in all of dry ingredients). Put butter over top in center of dish. Microwave at High (10) 2 minutes. Stir vigorously until smooth. If all butter has not melted in cooking, it will as mixture is stirred. Blend in nuts. Pour into wax paper lined 8 x 8 x 2-inch dish. Chill 1 hour in refrigerator or 20 to 30 minutes in freezer. Cut into squares. Makes about 36 squares. PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE: Follow directions above except substitute 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter for cocoa. Add peanut butter after microwaving (I like chopped peanuts for \ this one.) COFFEE FONDANT: Prepare 2-Minute Fudge as above, except omit cocoa and substitute 1 tablespoon instant coffee granules dissolved in 2 tablespoons milk. Before fondant sets, press chocolate shot decors into top. -- From: Carl carl...@googlemail.com Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2010 12:19 PM To: cooking Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Subject: [CnD] a resapi request pleas is it posable to make fudge in the microwave?

Do you guys put all of your recipes in braille?

Barbdisc. - Original Message - From: Penny Reeder penny.ree...@gmail.com To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Sent: Sunday, January 10, 2010 11:59 AM Subject: [CnD] Organizing Recipes for Easy Retrieval There are many ways to do this; some people even utilize specialized software packages, but this is what I do. I have the following folders on my Compact Flash Card, and also on my computer in a directory called CookBook: Appetizers, Breakfast, Breads, Holidays, Main Dishes, Miscellaneous (That's where I put the household cleaners, the jams and jellies, the timetables, etc.), Desserts, Soups, and Vegetables. I copy recipes into these folders, both on the computer and on the Compact Flash card, which I use with my BrailleNote. (Once I had a Compact Flash Card fail, so now I am diligent about putting new recipes in both places). I have thought about copying everything onto an SD card to use with my Victor Reader Stream -- I think this would work, since they are all .txt files -- but I haven't tried it yet. If I have more than one recipe for the same thing, I simply add it to the text file with that name, so, for example, I have several recipes for Perfect Roast Beef, all of which are a little different. If the recipes fit into more than one category, e.g., a cookie that is a dessert, but which I also always make during the holidays, I put the recipe file in both places. I used to have one folder for Crock Pot (i.e., slow cooker) recipes, but I found it was too hard to find what I wanted and I wasn't looking there often enough for ideas, so now I identify a recipe as being for the Crock Pot in the title, but store it in the appropriate, e.g., desserts, breakfast, vegetables, or main dishes folder. I usually store side dishes in the Vegetables folder, although once in a while, I consider creating a new Side Dishes folder. I have also considered creating a salads and salad dressings folder but for right now, salads are stored either in Vegetables or Main Dishes, and dressings appear inside Vegetables, or in Miscellaneous.
