My g'ma made the best iced sugar cookies and sour cream raisin pie!
Oh, I never used a recipe. Nothing fancy. Start with a can of yams or you could roast some fresh yams yourself. (Early in the day, poke holes in the skins with a fork and roast them until they're soft, cool and peel and cut into chunks) Use a good root beer -- I like Virgil's. Pour the whole bottle root beer into a pan and bring it to a boil and let it cook for a while until some of it's gone -- this concentrates the flavor as well as the sweetness. Stir in some brown sugar until you like the level of sweetness. Then drain the yams, if using canned, and put the chunks into the glaze and let the pan simmer gently until the yams are heated through, 10 or 15 minutes. Next, pour the yams and glaze into a baking dish and cover the whole thing with marshmallows. Pop into the oven until the marshmallows are brown and melty.
Oh, I'm just crying! I LOVE divinity! My g'ma always made it!

This is a classic Polish cookie that my mom and Bushia used to make at Christmas time. I've found that this is a really hard dough to work with, but
Maple syrup -- YES! And melting butter into the glaze sounds wonderful!
This is a similar recipe (ingredients,) that my German Grandmother used to make around Christmas, but we would make it on special occasions' breakfasts all year round. Easter morning, Fourth of July morning, birthdays, etc.
With powdered sugar! YUMMMMM!!!!!This is a similar recipe (ingredients,) that my German Grandmother used to make around Christmas, but we would make it on special occasions' breakfasts all year round. Easter morning, Fourth of July morning, birthdays, etc.
There is an apple topping that goes with it. . .
Some folks use a casserole dish, IMO, you need a cast iron pan to do it up right.
Try Penne or Ziti.
Alla Puttanesca!
