Cooking & Recipes - August 2007

I like to make Toll House chocolate chip cookies. But the recipie on the Nestle bag comes out soft n' chewy. I like cookies that are crunchy - like Peperidge Farm Nantuckets.

Is there an ingredient that increases the crunch factor?

I want to make some mocktails for a party. But they need to be quick and easy, as I have never tried making them before. Do you have any ideas? (And I already know how to make Shirley Temples thanks)

I am looking for a selection of wrap recipes to make for about 10 friends. I am a vegetarian so I really don't know what to make for meat wraps. Also looking for veggie wrap ideas. I need recipes that will be OK when made a few hours in advance. I also don't want to have to buy tons of different ingredients for each type I make. Thanks for your help!

I live in Kansas at about 2000 feet elevation. (I don't know if that matters but I've tried so much, I'm starting to wonder what affects baking at what doesn't.). I am STRUGGLING with homeade biscuits. I have made biscuits 10-12 times, each time modifying something I did before, with little luck. I've tried:

Better Homes and Gardens recipes - milk and buttermilk
self-rising flour
all purpose flour
real butter
margarine
real butter/crisco combo
just crisco
Firm kneeding (10-12 strokes)
Medium kneeding (3-5 strokes)
Almost no kneeding (dump, flatten dough, cut)
Greased pan
Non-greased pan
Baking inch-apart on cookie sheet
Baking butted up to each other in cake pan

Any advice, let me know. Any awesome recipes, let me know. I just want golden brown, flaky homeade biscuits that rise, that's all. I am tired of flat or hard, seriously crumbly, seriously runny, etc.

Any thoughts, let me know!

I have heard not to use water, use milk, for fluffy egg and vice versa. So what's the truth?

Has anyone ever made smoked hocks and cabbage, I want to make some for dinner but don't know how long to cook.

Please Help?

Do I cook them at the same time or seperate. I've heard that cabbage only takes a few minutes to cook, but my sister cooks hers for an hour. Anybody else do this?

I know this may sound a little crazy to some of you, but a Chess Pie is a southern-style pie make with eggs, sugar, and cream. I was really wanting an exact recipe. I am from Kentucky originally and it is a huge favorite there. Not all of them are good though. The best is a creamy chess pie with smooth texture that can only be described as the best dessert on the face of the planet. It is hugely fattening but it is well worth it. Thanks to all that respond. God bless you all.

Thanks...I am pregnant, and none of this stuff sounds good to me, but I have to use it up in a meal. Any suggestions would be great. I cook a LOT, so I have almost every spice/seasoning to add, but these are the main things:

About 1# of roasted leftover chicken.
1# fresh baby spinach
1# fresh strawberries
4oz mascarpone cheese

I gotta use this stuff up and can't think for myself today!

Also, I am not big on salads, so if you have any cooked recommendations that would be better, but I am open to your suggestions.

Please fill in the blank (and name as many dishes as you'd like) -- I don't need specific recipes just names of dishes/foods. For example Chicken and Dumplings and/or Lasagne.

Me and my bf have tried cooking togther a few times, but it usually ends up being one of us. mostly b/c we don't really know how to cook. We are both 23 and it is time to learn. Going out to eat is getting to costly anyway. I need some ideas for a dinner that would be really fun to cook together and that we can really gets our hands into. I'm not that worried about it coming out tasty (b/c I'm sure I'll still ruin the recipe. haha) But I just want it to be super fun and where we both can cook at the same time. Any ideas?
