  1. These were great!!! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out delicious. My family loved them!!! I used chopped pecans for the nuts on half the dough and made the rest without.(Some in my family don't care for nuts.) Thanks, will be making again.
     
  2. This is definitely not for the cook who has time constraints in the kitchen, but if you want a seriously tasty treat for yourself or your company, this is it! Followed the recipe right on down, using pistachios for the nuts & will definitely make them again before the end of the year! Thanks for sharing a great recipe!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I live on the Oregon Coast with husband and four boys. I am able to stay at home with them and hold down the fort. I have many cookbooks which I enjoy searching through for our family favorites. I recently started working as a home health care worker for seniors with disabilities (which I absolutely love), I love to quilt, crochet, bake, read, garden, watch the rain (which happens quite frequently here) and play with my kids. <br /><br />I am passionate about canning, canning, canning. I will admit I like admiring all the hard work after the jars are placed on the shelves. hehee I am all for if I can make it myself I will. Yes...I am frugal. I also love to bake. Especially homemade bread. I will continue to do so until arthritis takes over my hands. Then I will use more of the mixer for the kneading part. <br />All recipes I post are ones I've made and are our famiy favorites. <br /><br />I love pretty flowers. These flowers grace our yard every year. I could watch them all day long and be perfectly content! <br /><a href=http://s260.photobucket.com/albums/ii24/zauggrc/?action=view?t=2008flowers008.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii24/zauggrc/2008flowers008.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&lt;img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picbzMWsf-1.jpg&gt; October 2010&nbsp;</p> <p><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pichy1L7z-1.jpg alt= /> September 2010</p> <p>&nbsp;<img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pic53mWVE-1.jpg alt= />&nbsp; August 2010</p> <p><br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pictSF7ey-1.jpg alt= />&nbsp; July 2010</p> <p><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pick0GuXD-1.jpg alt= /> June 2010</p> <p><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/piczwaa5A-1.jpg alt= /> May 2010</p> <p><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picW4Zmut-1.jpg alt= /></p> <p>April 2010</p> <p><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picO0GVGF-2.jpg alt= />&nbsp;March 2010</p> <p><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picOOqjRy-1.jpg alt= /> Feb 2010 <img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pick0GuXD-1.jpg alt= /> Jan 2010 <img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picCdyPjI-1.jpg alt= /> Dec 2009 <img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/GrassTree-1-1.jpg alt= /> November 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/MullaMulla-1-1.jpg alt= /> October 2009<img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Dryandra-1-1.jpg alt= /> September 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pic9ysNPn-1.jpg alt= /> June 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pic9ysNPn-1.jpg alt= /> May 2009 <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/picbzMWsf-1.jpg alt= /> April 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pic9ysNPn-1.jpg alt= />March 2009 <img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pickxwB1q-1.jpg alt= /> February 2009 <br /><img src=http://i497.photobucket.com/albums/rr336/jess4freedom/Zaar%20banners/emergency_amtag.jpg alt= />January 2009 <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/pukekoinapongatree-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/FringeLily-1-1.jpg alt= /> November 2008 <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><a href=http://s80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/?action=view?t=CookingSchoolHost1.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/CookingSchoolHost1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Darwinia.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/Cooking-Kangaroo-1-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/numbat-1.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/DesertRose.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/590105/fringelilygrp10.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/GrassTree.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /></a><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/CV.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><a href=http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/?action=view?t=curriedcurrajongs.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/curriedcurrajongs.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a></p>
