Suzanne, I asked you before on the other thread if it was ok to substitute the GS apples for Fuji apples and you never answered Please let me know. Thanks

Re: THE (TEMPORARY) OFFICIAL RECIPE THREAD!

Im so sorry shamma, i am not sure.. i use granny smith because i was told that they cook the best. I have never even eaten a fiji apple before.. If they taste different than regular apples then i would try it.. it doesnt take long at all so make a mini one to taste...

In a ziplock bag, combine white sugar and cinnamon. Put 3 or 4 biscuit pieces at a time in the baggie and shake well to coat. Put coated biscuits in a well greased bundt pan.
Put butter and brown sugar in a microwave safe bowl, and nuke until the butter melts. Whisk until 1 smooth consistancy. Pour over the biscuits in the bundt pan.

YUMMY!!! These all look incredible!! I promise to add a recipe one of these days! thanks for sharing everyone!!

stacy

did you use the kraft kitchen recipe too?

Re: THE (TEMPORARY) OFFICIAL RECIPE THREAD!

Suzanne, thank you for reminding me of icebox cake. My mom used to make it all of the time! It's been years...maybe I'll make one for old time's sake.

Here's a very easy cookie recipe-one of my nieces' and nephews' favorites:

Olivia's pinwheels

Preheat oven to 400F. Lightly butter 2 heavy large baking sheets.

Roll out a thawed sheet of puff pastry (the kind you buy in the frozen section) on a lightly floured surface.

Trim edges to form a neat rectangle.

Cut the rectangle into approx. 3 inch squares. Using a sharp knife, make a diagonal cut from each corner of one 3in square. Cut towards the center, but do not cut through the center.

To form a pinwheel, fold ever other point of puff pastry towards the center of the square, pressing to adhere.

Repeat with remaining 3in squares.

Brush each with an egg glaze (1 beaten egg). Sprinkly with sugar. Place a 1/2 tsp of jam (any kind) in center of each.

Bake til golden and puffed, about 10-12 minutes. Be careful not to burn-the pastry is very delicate.

Remove with a metal spatula, cool on a wire rack.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
