Apple cider is usually too sugary for the yeast to grow properly. If you want to try to omit the water to make a stronger cider mix, be sure to proof the yeast first. We used home made unprocessed apple cider for these and they had a nice cider taste.
Sugar Cookies, Quick
Simple cookies that do not take a lot of time.
Chai Mix, Powdered (Updated)
We were very disappointed that Nestle unsweetened instant tea has been discontinued. However, we found a new instant tea that we like and have been playing with old recipes.
Adjust the spices and sugar to your taste.
Lemon Pepper
Brisket, Smoked
This is not an exact recipe, but it is a great starting point.
Breakfast Sausage, Boerewors Version
You do not want these dry, but they can be very greasy depending on what meat you use. Use lower fat meats if possible. Or, drain meat well before serving.
Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter Cookies
Playing with our favorite cookie recipe. Changed ingredients slightly and then made them giant size.
“Yellowies” (ie Lemon Brownies)
This dessert is hard to describe, sort of lemon cake, sort of brownie texture. It is a nice change from what we usually make.
Cookie Dough (with baked flour)
Chocolate peanut butter, Oatmeal cookie and White chocolate pecan cookie dough. These were good, but plain chocolate chip was a favorite.
These doughs also freeze well and are very good added to ice cream.
Buttermilk Rusk (Muesli)
Attempting to replicate our favorite South African Rusk.
