So you’d think having a food blog would mean I’d have some
elaborate Thanksgiving recipes for your entire feast. Ha. As my students would say, "Ain't nobody got time for that." Just like
everyone else right about now, I’m busy. But I do need to bring some treats to
family get-togethers. So rather than a
full post, I’m going to show you two recipes I’ve made in the past and will be
making this Wednesday.
I made these delightful things for some of my students
recently, and they got rave reviews. From teenagers. So, yeah, they’re good.
These cookies are really more like little cakes or muffin tops. They’re not too
sweet, and I could eat these for breakfast with my coffee every morning.
Note: I leave off the nuts and the glaze. (Again, "Ain't nobody got time for that.")
If you’ve read or watched The Help (which I highly recommend if you haven’t), you know about
Minny’s legendary chocolate pie. This recipe is the one used on set for the
movie, and yes, it’s as good as you imagined it would be. It’s somewhat
custard-like, somewhat caramel-like. Again, it gets high marks at potlucks.
One last thing, whatever you cook up this Thanksgiving, I hope you are sharing it with those people whom you are truly thankful for. Happy holidays!
Enjoy!
