Original Fantasy Fudge Recipe Fudge
I got this recipe off a Kraft Jet Puff Marshmallow Creme jar.
I make this fudge this time of year..
Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
3 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter or margarine
2/3 cup evaporated milk
2 cups semi chocolate chips (I used Tollhouse)
1 jar of marshmallow crème, Kraft jet puffed 7 oz. jar
1 tsp. vanilla
Directions
Grease a 9 X 13 ” pan. Alternative and much easier is to line a 9 X 13? pan with parchment paper, this allows a much quicker release and clean up.
In a medium pot, mix sugar, butter and milk. Bring the mixture to a boil using medium heat, stirring constantly so the sugar dissolves and the mixture does not burn on the bottom of the pot.
Remove the thickened mixture from the heat and add chocolate chips. Stir in the chocolate chips, add marshmallow crème and vanilla.
Pour into the prepared pan to cool.
For those who like nuts, this is a recipe which can easily be adjusted to 1/2 and 1/2 by using two smaller pans. After transferring 1/2 of the Fantasy Fudge mixture to one pan, add nuts to the remaining mixture and pour into a second prepared pan.

"Outlaw Slaw"
While growing up my family got together all the time Many BBq's and my Elder sister came up with a recipe similar to this but being a Chef I went on to perfect it The reason I love it is non dairy which means if you left it covered over night just throw it in the fridge and cool it and if your getting low just shred up more onion , carrots and cabbage and throw it in the brine over night stirring it once in awhile
Ingredients
2-Med carrots
1/2 Sm onion
!-Cup white vinegar
1-Cup white sugar
3/4Cup oil
1 Tbls ground mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
Finely chop veggies and place in a Lg mixing bowl set aside
In a sm sauce pan mix the rest of ingredients in pan Bring to a boil stirring often on Med high until it starts to foam up When it get to the point of boiling over remove and pour over veggie mix quickly and mix up I leave mine there and stir it if I walk by it
In the 30+ years I've been serving it I can't recall very many who didn't like it and I had 2 restaurants and 1 bar in Detroit Lakes MN Tee Pee's Sportsman's bar The birthplace of the "WE FEST" in 1983
I was locking up one night and just when I turned to go downstairs for a well deserved rest a car pulled in A crew got out and came up to the door and asked I was closed Of course I said no and let them in I locked the door up again and asked what kinda beer they drank and it was the Bull so I grabbed a case of tall boys and sat down at a table and made the We Fest possible
Next day i tried scrambled to get a semi truck of folding lawn chairs delivered before the fest but couldn't come hell or high water After the dust settled Jeff and I figured of I lost out on around 7-10K
Directions
In a sm sauce pan mix the rest of ingredients in pan Bring to a boil stirring often on Med high until it starts to foam up When it get to the point of boiling over remove and pour over veggie mix quickly and mix up I leave mine there and stir it if I walk by it Put in fridge and enjoy

Smothered Chicken with Creamed Spinach, Bacon, Mushrooms
I cooked this tonight! It was delightful! I use lots of online recipe sites to keep food from being boring. I do tweak most and add my own touches. I'm fortunate to be able to cook for my father, mother and mother 2 (a woman who has been like a mother to me) every Sunday and Wednesday. I promised them those days!
Ingredients
Chicken:
1 tablespoon butter
Any chicken pieces you like best or have on hand (smile)
salt
lemon pepper seasoning
paprika
Creamed spinach:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
10 oz fresh spinach
4 garlic cloves, minced
2/3 cup half and half
2/3 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 small onion chopped
Other Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 oz mushrooms, sliced
4 slices bacon, cooked, chopped
4 slices of Pepper Jack cheese (Monterey Jack Cheese with Jalapenos)
Directions
Butter the bottom of the baking dish or spray your favorite oil or butter spray.(I used a 9X13 pan)
Generously season chicken on both sides with salt, lemon pepper seasoning and a small amount of paprika.
Place the chicken into the greased baking dish and bake for 25 minutes at 375 F.
In the mean time, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Add spinach and cook for only 1 or 2 minutes, covered, until the spinach is thoroughly heated through and start to wilt. Remove from heat.
Add minced garlic and half and half. Bring to boil. Add shredded mozzarella cheese and keep stirring, on high heat, until mozzarella cheese starts to melt - about 30 seconds. Reduce heat to simmer and keep stirring until you have a nice, smooth creamed spinach - about 30 seconds or 1 more minute.
Season with salt to your taste. Remove from heat.
In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add sliced mushrooms and cook on high-medium heat for 1-2 minutes until mushroom caramelize. Do not salt mushrooms or it will prevent the caramelization.
Remove the chicken from the oven. Top each chicken breast with the creamed spinach, chopped cooked bacon, cooked mushrooms and broken slices of pepper jack cheese.
Bake in the oven, uncovered for 25 more minutes, until chicken is cooked through, no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear.
Notes
I had a Monterey Jack/Cheddar mix and sprinkled it on top of the spinach mixture I also added finely chopped onions as I love onion and garlic in most of my recipes for flavor.

Marbled Pumpkin Cheesecake
From Sunset Magazine, this is a great Thanksgiving dessert. If you can't get the crust to work out, use the pre-made graham cracker crusts.
