Answer 1

Good old apple crisp! There's no real recipe, I just mix everything to taste so here goes.

10 or so apples, peeled, sliced and cut into cubes
Melt 1/2 cup butter, add about 1/4 to 1/2 cup brown sugar (depending on the sweetness of the apples), 2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tps ginger and a pinch of cloves. Pour over apples.
Into 1/2 cup softened butter, add 1/3 cup flour, 1 cup oatmeal and 1/2 cup brown sugar. Mix until crumbly. Sprinkle on apples. Bake until apples are soft (about 45 min). Serve with a good vanilla ice cream and a drizzle od caramel sauce. The ultimate winter comfort food! Just remember, I don't actually use a recipe so all measurements are approximate and may need some adjustments. Also use brown sugar and do not sustitute white - it's not nearly as good! Enjoy!

Answer 2

Is 1950 old enough?

Chocolate Eclair "Cake"
This is an amazing recipe that kids and adults all love!
1 box of plain graham crackers
1 large box of vanilla instant pudding (I like the french vanilla - or try different flavors)
1 12oz tub of Cool Whip (we had to make our own back then)
1 can of cholocate icing (same here)

Line a 13x9 pan with whole graham crackers (can break into smaller squares to fit the pan, but don't crumble). Mix instant pudding according to package directions. Gently fold in whipped cream. Spread 1/2 of the pudding/whipped cream mixture onto graham crackers. Add another layer of graham crackers, then the remaining pudding mixture and top with a final layer of graham crackers. Remove the lid and any plastic or foil covers from the icing can. Microwave can of icing for 1 minute (watch closely. You wan to melt it, not scorch it - some microwaves heat faster than others.) Gently stir melted icing (be careful, it will be HOT.) Pour melted icing on top layer of graham crackers to cover. Stick the "cake" in the fridge for a couple of hours and serve cold.
This desert tastes even better then next day. It will keep for a couple of days in the refrigerator, though it probably won't last that long!

Answer 3

Well, I'm 57, and my Granny made this recipe. I still love it, and still serve it. It was as fun for us kids to "help" make the crust as it was to eat it. People rave, and it's so easy

Place contents of 1 full size package of Oreo cookies into paper grocery bag. Fold flat, and use rolling pin, fists, or whatever else to crush the cookies into crumbs. (That was the part we enjoyed so much. Beating the cookies up!) We kids felt a part of the process, and grandma could keep an eye on us.

Pour crumbs into large mixing bowl.

Melt 1 stick of butter or margarine. Pour melted butter into crumbs, a bit at a time, until crumbs stick together. (You may not need all the butter.) Press crumbs into pie tin, for the "crust", reserving about 3 tablespoons. Place pie tin with cookie crumb crust into freezer until fully frozen.

Let 1/2 gal. peppermint stick or mint chocolate chip ice cream sit at room temperature until it can be scooped with a spatula. Fill frozen crust with ice cream, swirling and smoothing until even (but with "character.") Sprinkle remaining crumbs on top.

Yeah, I know, it's really simple. But it is delicious, and brings back great memories,

Answer 6

I got this from my Grandma years ago. All of your left over bread, donuts, rolls, whatever....tear into pieces and put on a baking sheet. Bake for a few minutes...til a little hard...like a crouton. Next....mix milk, egg, cinnamon, sugar, vanilla, and raisins....Maybe a shot or two of whiskey, or rum. Put all bread in a baking dish and pour mixture over bread. Bake and let cool. top with powdered sugar icing or maple syrup.
