Hello and welcome to our
3ABN Today cooking program.
00:01:05.34\00:01:08.62
We are...
00:01:08.65\00:01:09.69
The Micheff Sisters.
00:01:09.72\00:01:11.56
I'm Linda. I'm Brenda.
00:01:11.59\00:01:12.98
And I'm Cinda.
00:01:13.01\00:01:14.38
And we have a really
sweet program for you today.
00:01:14.41\00:01:17.85
That's right. Yes, we do.
00:01:17.88\00:01:19.04
In fact you're
going to be delighted.
00:01:19.07\00:01:22.15
And that's why we're
calling it sweet delights.
00:01:22.18\00:01:24.14
Sweet delights.
00:01:24.17\00:01:26.22
We-- There's a time
and a place for everything
00:01:26.25\00:01:30.18
and there's time to
enjoy just a little sweet.
00:01:30.21\00:01:32.43
There's a good
balance in life. Right.
00:01:32.46\00:01:34.17
When you can have
just a little sweet things.
00:01:34.20\00:01:35.82
We're not saying every day,
00:01:35.85\00:01:37.54
but occasionally
it's nice to have
00:01:37.57\00:01:38.97
maybe a healthy twist
on a sweet thing, too.
00:01:39.00\00:01:40.90
That's why once in a
while I try and be sweet.
00:01:40.93\00:01:44.65
It's nice.
Every once in a while.
00:01:44.68\00:01:46.91
Can I brag it to you?
She's sweet all the time.
00:01:46.94\00:01:49.01
That's right.
She's sweet all the time.
00:01:49.25\00:01:51.71
In fact you don't
know her not to be sweet.
00:01:51.74\00:01:55.59
But we have really enjoyed
making these recipes for you,
00:01:55.62\00:02:00.07
and let's take a look real quick
00:02:00.10\00:02:01.67
at what you're going to
expect from today's program.
00:02:01.70\00:02:03.69
Okay?
00:02:03.72\00:02:04.75
We're gonna start off
with first we're starting off
00:02:04.78\00:02:08.12
with my lattice cookies.
00:02:08.15\00:02:11.33
Oh, and they're
beautiful and delicious.
00:02:11.36\00:02:14.54
Mmm. And then we have
peanut carob crescents.
00:02:14.57\00:02:17.79
Ooh, can't go
wrong with peanuts.
00:02:17.82\00:02:19.33
That's right.
Peanut's your favorite nut.
00:02:19.36\00:02:21.03
And lemon drop cookies.
00:02:21.06\00:02:23.04
Ooh. Now I've already tasted
those, they are wonderful.
00:02:23.07\00:02:26.30
And then we have
caramel apple pie. Yep.
00:02:26.33\00:02:29.54
Just like biting into a
caramel apple for a pie.
00:02:29.57\00:02:32.96
Then we have
pumpkin parfaits. Oh.
00:02:32.99\00:02:35.59
And I love pumpkin in
just about everything.
00:02:35.62\00:02:37.59
Those look good.
00:02:37.62\00:02:38.65
And then we have
little granny cakes.
00:02:38.68\00:02:41.80
Ooh.
00:02:41.83\00:02:42.90
Those look so
cute. I love those.
00:02:42.93\00:02:46.09
And we are going to start
off with my lattice cookies.
00:02:46.12\00:02:49.86
So let me read
the recipe for you.
00:02:49.89\00:02:51.79
For this you will need...
00:02:51.82\00:02:53.45
Ooh, now that doesn't
sound hard at all, does it?
00:03:26.22\00:03:28.54
And all those
good ingredients, well,
00:03:28.57\00:03:30.76
we're going to start
off with Cinda over here,
00:03:30.79\00:03:32.79
and she has our margarine.
00:03:32.82\00:03:34.23
And you are going to plug
your ears a little bit here
00:03:34.26\00:03:37.21
because she's going to
whip up the margarine here.
00:03:37.24\00:03:42.70
Okay, they can plug
their ears, but you can't.
00:03:42.73\00:03:45.32
Oh! You told me to plug my ears.
00:03:45.35\00:03:48.89
I'm like, all right.
00:03:48.92\00:03:50.28
See, I have to be
careful what I say.
00:03:50.31\00:03:52.36
And while she's going
to whip up that margarine
00:03:52.39\00:03:54.49
I'm going to just
add a little bit of sugar
00:03:54.52\00:03:58.65
and keep adding like that.
00:03:58.68\00:04:00.74
And then I'm going to add
00:04:05.52\00:04:10.65
in the applesauce.
00:04:10.68\00:04:14.47
Okay.
00:04:17.26\00:04:19.22
And then we're
gonna add in the vanilla
00:04:19.25\00:04:23.18
and the almond extract.
00:04:23.21\00:04:27.15
Get all that in there.
00:04:27.18\00:04:28.86
Okay, now look what we're doing.
00:04:28.89\00:04:31.92
We're going to-- Can you
turn that off for a minute?
00:04:31.95\00:04:35.27
Now we're going to just add,
we have our flour right here.
00:04:35.30\00:04:38.68
We're just gonna add our
cornstarch and your cornstarch,
00:04:38.71\00:04:41.57
the reason that
we add that it's--
00:04:41.60\00:04:44.32
it's what we
use in place of egg.
00:04:44.35\00:04:45.63
So it's a binder that holds all,
00:04:45.66\00:04:47.68
everything together
without using the eggs.
00:04:47.71\00:04:50.28
So, and then we're just
gonna put our salt in there.
00:04:50.31\00:04:52.78
You don't even miss the egg.
00:04:52.81\00:04:54.33
No. You really don't.
00:04:54.36\00:04:55.60
And our baking powder.
00:04:55.63\00:04:57.36
And then I'm just going
to just stir this together
00:04:57.39\00:05:00.17
like that and just a
cup-- just a little bit.
00:05:00.20\00:05:03.27
It doesn't have
to be too much here.
00:05:03.30\00:05:05.12
And then I want to
get the rest of vanilla
00:05:05.15\00:05:08.82
out there for you though, sis.
00:05:08.85\00:05:10.33
And then we're
going to add the flour.
00:05:10.36\00:05:15.67
Just a little bit at a
time while she's mixing.
00:05:15.70\00:05:21.04
Now you can do this
by hand if you want,
00:05:21.07\00:05:23.40
but you'll have to
stop by hand and, you know,
00:05:23.43\00:05:25.85
mix it up, then add a
little, mix it up, add a little.
00:05:25.88\00:05:29.89
So that you're incorporating
00:05:29.92\00:05:31.34
that flour in there
just a little bit at a time.
00:05:31.37\00:05:35.23
Okay, good job, sis.
00:05:35.26\00:05:37.88
Trying not get
a flour bath here.
00:05:37.91\00:05:39.99
You just want me to
be a grandma like you
00:05:43.18\00:05:45.13
and Linda are grandmas.
00:05:45.16\00:05:47.07
You want me to
be that right here.
00:05:47.10\00:05:48.61
I don't know.
00:05:48.64\00:05:49.68
No, I think you are
a pretty good aunty.
00:05:49.71\00:05:52.11
I tell you she is the
best aunty to my grandkids.
00:05:52.14\00:05:54.40
Yes, she is.
00:05:54.43\00:05:55.46
Anybody could ever
want, let me tell you that.
00:05:55.49\00:05:58.40
Okay, I'm getting impatient,
00:05:58.43\00:05:59.65
so I'm just gonna
throw it all in there.
00:05:59.68\00:06:04.16
At least she's honest.
00:06:04.19\00:06:06.09
You know. So mix that all up.
00:06:06.12\00:06:09.40
And I'm gonna show you
00:06:11.25\00:06:12.37
the consistency
after it's all mixed up.
00:06:12.40\00:06:15.91
And that's good--
00:06:15.94\00:06:17.15
that's probably
good enough there, sis.
00:06:17.18\00:06:19.37
Whoo! Okay.
00:06:19.40\00:06:21.62
Well, it's
getting a little thicker
00:06:21.65\00:06:22.95
so I wanted to give it--
give me a little more power.
00:06:22.98\00:06:27.02
All right, you can turn it off.
00:06:27.05\00:06:29.08
Okay. Yeah.
00:06:29.11\00:06:33.25
And there's no eggs in it,
00:06:33.28\00:06:35.95
so if you want to eat this
dough it'd be perfectly fine.
00:06:35.98\00:06:38.74
Now everybody likes to
eat a little cookie dough.
00:06:38.77\00:06:41.09
This one is perfectly fine.
00:06:41.12\00:06:42.69
So now I just want you to see
00:06:42.72\00:06:44.68
what a nice consistency
it gets into a nice ball.
00:06:44.71\00:06:47.70
And you'd want to
get all that stuff
00:06:47.73\00:06:50.01
out of your beaters as
well because all that is good.
00:06:50.04\00:06:52.90
But look at how nice that is.
00:06:52.93\00:06:54.89
It's firm and
moist, but you want to put
00:06:54.92\00:06:57.36
this in the
refrigerator for several hours.
00:06:57.39\00:06:59.73
And then you're going to,
00:06:59.76\00:07:02.89
you know, do with the next step.
00:07:02.92\00:07:04.89
But because we don't have
a couple of hours to wait,
00:07:04.92\00:07:07.41
I have another
one already prepared.
00:07:07.44\00:07:09.39
So we can put that together.
00:07:09.42\00:07:10.55
Are you eating my dough?
00:07:10.58\00:07:11.74
You told her she could.
00:07:11.77\00:07:16.99
Okay.
00:07:17.02\00:07:18.94
All right, so
now we're going to--
00:07:18.97\00:07:22.99
I have something that's cold
00:07:23.02\00:07:24.63
and it rolls out a
little better when it's cold.
00:07:24.66\00:07:27.00
And what you can do is,
you can just cut it in half
00:07:27.03\00:07:31.71
and we're gonna
do a half at a time.
00:07:31.74\00:07:34.18
But first I'm
gonna put on my gloves.
00:07:34.21\00:07:36.60
And while I'm doing that,
00:07:36.63\00:07:37.86
Linda, would you put
some just plastic wrap.
00:07:37.89\00:07:40.40
No, I'm not gonna use that.
00:07:40.43\00:07:41.49
Uh-uh, no. Just plastic wrap.
00:07:41.52\00:07:42.58
Just plastic wrap on the bottom,
00:07:42.61\00:07:43.98
and then I'm gonna
cover it on the top,
00:07:44.01\00:07:45.43
and I'm gonna roll,
we're gonna roll it out.
00:07:45.46\00:07:48.03
Similar to a pie crust.
00:07:48.06\00:07:49.28
Now I have a very
seasoned rolling pan at home
00:07:49.31\00:07:52.66
that's been
around for a long time.
00:07:52.69\00:07:54.57
And I can roll it without
the dough sticking to it.
00:07:54.60\00:07:59.39
But with this
particular rolling pin
00:07:59.42\00:08:01.58
we have here I can tell that
it hasn't had a lot of use yet,
00:08:01.61\00:08:06.63
so anything in moisture just
00:08:06.66\00:08:08.50
it's like the
wood just absorbs it.
00:08:08.53\00:08:10.25
So it needs to be a
little more seasoned.
00:08:10.28\00:08:12.08
So, yes, we're
gonna put one on the top.
00:08:12.11\00:08:14.62
And I'm gonna
roll it just like I--
00:08:14.65\00:08:16.10
this is how I
roll out pie crust.
00:08:16.13\00:08:17.67
I just do it between the
two like that. Thanks, sis.
00:08:17.70\00:08:22.72
Okay, and we're gonna
put another one on the top.
00:08:22.75\00:08:25.24
And, boy, doesn't it
help to have sisters?
00:08:25.27\00:08:27.85
Look at that. And I'm
just gonna flatten it down.
00:08:27.88\00:08:31.08
And we're just going to just
roll this to a rectangle shape.
00:08:31.11\00:08:36.43
So now we're just
gonna roll like this.
00:08:36.46\00:08:40.56
These are really
fun cookies to make.
00:08:40.59\00:08:43.46
They're pretty, too.
00:08:43.49\00:08:44.57
And get your kids involved.
00:08:44.60\00:08:46.62
Cinda, what do you always
tell the kids on "Tiny Tots?"
00:08:46.65\00:08:49.58
Cooking is fun. That's right.
00:08:49.61\00:08:52.86
And this is something that
they would love to do with you.
00:08:52.89\00:08:56.07
I know anytime
I'm making cookies
00:08:56.10\00:08:57.76
my grandsons are
right there saying,
00:08:57.79\00:08:59.20
"Grandma, can I help?
00:08:59.23\00:09:00.36
Can I help?"
00:09:00.39\00:09:01.44
And they help me
all the time, too.
00:09:01.47\00:09:02.53
Yes.
00:09:02.56\00:09:03.59
They're going to
be good little cooks.
00:09:03.62\00:09:04.66
Yes.
00:09:04.69\00:09:05.76
And, you know, on "Tiny Tots"
we have little rolling pins
00:09:05.79\00:09:08.62
for all the tiny tots
that come help in the kitchen.
00:09:08.65\00:09:10.64
You know, they are so cute.
00:09:10.67\00:09:12.05
Oh, they're so cute.
00:09:12.08\00:09:14.31
It's fun watching
the kids use 'em, too.
00:09:14.34\00:09:17.03
Okay, so you can see
00:09:17.06\00:09:18.54
how I'm getting this
into a nice rectangle shape.
00:09:18.57\00:09:22.30
And it's probably what,
00:09:22.33\00:09:25.01
fourth of an inch
thick, probably like that.
00:09:25.04\00:09:28.36
Okay.
00:09:28.39\00:09:29.95
And here's what we're gonna do.
00:09:29.98\00:09:33.81
We're gonna peel that off.
00:09:33.84\00:09:36.52
And then I'm going to cut this
in half this way, like that.
00:09:36.55\00:09:43.20
And then I'm gonna
do it in half again.
00:09:43.23\00:09:46.24
And then I'm going to
make these lines as wide--
00:09:46.27\00:09:52.21
make them as wide as you want,
00:09:52.24\00:09:53.48
but I do it just about
three quarters of an inch.
00:09:53.51\00:09:57.66
I don't want it really,
really two third of a cookie.
00:09:57.69\00:10:00.93
So it's not quite an
inch, just a little less.
00:10:00.96\00:10:04.21
And then you're just gonna
keep those as steady as you can.
00:10:04.24\00:10:07.85
Now for people that say, "Oh,
I could never cut straight,"
00:10:07.88\00:10:12.66
then you can use a guide.
00:10:12.69\00:10:14.05
You can even, you
know, wash off a ruler
00:10:14.08\00:10:16.04
and put it down there
and use it as a guide.
00:10:16.07\00:10:18.36
That's not gonna hurt a thing.
00:10:18.39\00:10:20.63
And so I'm not
gonna do all of these.
00:10:20.66\00:10:22.78
It won't take all
of these to show you.
00:10:22.81\00:10:24.66
So what we're gonna do now is--
just slide this over here, sis.
00:10:24.69\00:10:31.00
We can actually take them
and put it on the back counter.
00:10:31.03\00:10:33.13
Okay.
00:10:33.16\00:10:34.19
And I'm just gonna
slide this over here,
00:10:34.22\00:10:37.01
so that I have a
little room to work here.
00:10:37.04\00:10:39.46
Okay, and we're
going to take one of your,
00:10:39.49\00:10:43.09
I'm gonna take one
of these right here
00:10:43.12\00:10:45.54
and I'm gonna put it like that.
00:10:45.57\00:10:47.16
And then I'm
gonna take another one
00:10:47.19\00:10:48.83
and I'm gonna put it like that.
00:10:48.86\00:10:50.79
I put just a little
bit of space between it.
00:10:50.82\00:10:53.62
And I put another one
like this and a little space.
00:10:53.65\00:10:57.48
And then I'm
going to take this one
00:10:57.51\00:11:00.66
and we're gonna go
the opposite direction.
00:11:00.69\00:11:02.99
So I'm gonna go down, I'm
gonna pick up one in the middle,
00:11:03.02\00:11:07.07
and I'm gonna go like that.
00:11:07.10\00:11:08.70
It's like basket weaving. See.
00:11:08.73\00:11:10.48
Yes, and then I'm
gonna take another one,
00:11:10.51\00:11:13.27
and I'm gonna go
pick this one up,
00:11:13.30\00:11:15.04
and I'm gonna go under.
00:11:15.07\00:11:17.12
And I'm going to pick
this one up and going under.
00:11:17.15\00:11:20.26
So it's every other one
is either over or under.
00:11:20.29\00:11:23.59
And then this one
we're gonna take another one.
00:11:23.62\00:11:26.07
That was one of my
honors in Pathfinders.
00:11:26.10\00:11:28.30
I love--
00:11:28.33\00:11:29.37
I got a honor in basket weaving.
00:11:29.40\00:11:31.49
I loved it. I got
one of those, too.
00:11:31.52\00:11:32.97
liked it, too.
00:11:33.00\00:11:34.78
I think didn't we
go to camp one year
00:11:34.81\00:11:37.25
and have basket weaving?
00:11:37.28\00:11:38.31
I can't remember.
00:11:38.34\00:11:39.37
I was like--
Cinda was the brave one,
00:11:39.40\00:11:41.81
and I was the one crying
and homesick every day at camp.
00:11:41.84\00:11:44.48
I'm going, "I
just want to go home."
00:11:44.51\00:11:46.67
And Cinda's like,
you know, "This is fun.
00:11:46.70\00:11:49.00
What are you talking about?"
00:11:49.03\00:11:53.97
And see, can you see right here?
00:11:54.00\00:11:55.31
I have made a little
bit of a loops right here.
00:11:55.34\00:12:00.03
So when that
happens it's not a problem,
00:12:00.06\00:12:02.46
just pinch off a little
bit and just press it together.
00:12:02.49\00:12:06.54
You see what I mean?
It won't hurt a thing.
00:12:06.57\00:12:07.93
Now I've got my little
lattice thing going on.
00:12:07.96\00:12:10.16
And I have a really
small cookie cutter here.
00:12:10.19\00:12:13.84
It's not what I normally
use. I would use a big one.
00:12:13.87\00:12:17.27
So since I don't have it,
if I had one that was right,
00:12:17.30\00:12:20.18
I would just use
the cookie cutter
00:12:20.21\00:12:21.86
and that would be all that.
00:12:21.89\00:12:23.17
But there isn't one, so I'm
gonna free-hand this cookie,
00:12:23.20\00:12:26.23
and I'm just gonna
make a circle like that.
00:12:26.26\00:12:30.06
And--
00:12:30.09\00:12:31.18
But you could make
it smaller if you want.
00:12:31.21\00:12:32.67
You can make is
smaller if you want,
00:12:32.70\00:12:34.44
but I like the
regular size ones.
00:12:34.47\00:12:37.76
And I just am
going to free-hand this
00:12:37.79\00:12:40.14
and make my
little circle like that.
00:12:40.17\00:12:42.97
And then see. Now
look at that, see.
00:12:43.00\00:12:46.90
Then you're going to
just take your spatula
00:12:46.93\00:12:50.20
and go right underneath it
00:12:50.23\00:12:52.42
and put it on your
parchment paper right here.
00:12:52.45\00:12:55.64
And just gently
scoot it off of there.
00:12:55.67\00:12:58.16
And if anything does like that,
00:12:58.19\00:12:59.59
you just fix it and
put your next one on,
00:12:59.62\00:13:02.41
and your next
one, and your next one.
00:13:02.44\00:13:03.81
It is that easy.
It's so much fun.
00:13:03.84\00:13:06.60
And you can-- Now
if you really said,
00:13:06.63\00:13:08.80
"Oh, that's way
too much work for me,"
00:13:08.83\00:13:10.48
these are wonderful
cookies, just cut 'em all out
00:13:10.51\00:13:13.16
and sprinkle a little
cinnamon sugar and that's it.
00:13:13.19\00:13:14.63
And use your
favorite cookie cutter shape.
00:13:14.66\00:13:16.45
So right here-- Exactly.
00:13:16.48\00:13:17.51
At this point you'd sprinkle--
00:13:17.54\00:13:18.57
So at this point what I do is,
00:13:18.60\00:13:20.31
and you could do
it at this point, too.
00:13:20.34\00:13:21.65
You don't have to do it
on that if you don't want.
00:13:21.68\00:13:23.81
But add some just melted
margarine and I'm just gonna--
00:13:23.84\00:13:26.34
normally you'd have
a small pastry brush.
00:13:26.37\00:13:28.25
We don't have
one, so guess what.
00:13:28.28\00:13:29.60
Because I have
gloves on that works.
00:13:29.63\00:13:31.63
And then we're-- what I do
00:13:31.66\00:13:33.87
is I just put a little cinnamon
sugar and we stir it around.
00:13:33.90\00:13:37.25
And I'm just
gonna be quick about it,
00:13:37.28\00:13:38.73
but you do all of
it, you know, for that.
00:13:38.76\00:13:40.61
And then you just sprinkle
like this just a tiny bit.
00:13:40.64\00:13:44.25
And you're
gonna-- And you're gonna--
00:13:44.28\00:13:47.18
You're gonna bake
it at 350 degree oven
00:13:47.21\00:13:49.75
for about 15-20 minutes
just until they're golden.
00:13:49.78\00:13:53.22
And I have some already
right here prepared to show you.
00:13:53.25\00:13:56.11
And when you take
them out of the oven,
00:13:56.14\00:13:58.15
you're gonna want
to take one right here.
00:13:58.18\00:14:02.73
What are you doing?
00:14:02.76\00:14:04.40
And let me show
you what you do next.
00:14:04.43\00:14:06.89
Mmm. And that's
how you do it, folks.
00:14:11.59\00:14:18.70
Aren't those easy to make?
00:14:18.73\00:14:19.95
And I just call
them lattice cookies.
00:14:19.98\00:14:22.50
And you can do that with a
lot of different type of doughs.
00:14:22.53\00:14:25.68
It just makes it
a little special.
00:14:25.71\00:14:27.21
And I like to have something--
00:14:27.24\00:14:28.54
It's a little like a shortbread.
00:14:28.57\00:14:30.14
Or something like that
or like just a sugar cookie,
00:14:30.17\00:14:33.50
but it's delicious I tell you.
00:14:33.53\00:14:35.06
It's got a nice texture to it.
00:14:35.09\00:14:36.68
And something
else you're gonna love
00:14:36.71\00:14:38.43
is Linda's
peanut carob crescents.
00:14:38.46\00:14:41.21
All right. Let
me read the recipe.
00:14:41.24\00:14:43.58
For that you will need...
00:14:43.61\00:14:44.66
My husband loves
cookies. And I love peanuts.
00:15:10.62\00:15:14.52
And who doesn't love cookies?
00:15:14.55\00:15:16.72
And if I make cookies
and we live in a dormitory,
00:15:16.75\00:15:20.23
and we'll start
getting all kinds of company.
00:15:20.26\00:15:22.68
The girls will
just start coming in.
00:15:22.71\00:15:25.32
And before you know it, I
don't have any more cookies.
00:15:25.35\00:15:27.34
Well, you know what they say,
00:15:27.37\00:15:28.67
if you are going to sell
your home right before you get
00:15:28.70\00:15:32.63
the people to come in and look
at your home bake some bread.
00:15:32.66\00:15:34.70
Bake some cookies.
00:15:34.73\00:15:36.45
In fact I tell
the story of my book
00:15:36.48\00:15:38.48
"Battered to Blessed,"
it's called my cookie story.
00:15:38.51\00:15:40.95
And I tell the
story of me making cookies
00:15:40.98\00:15:43.01
and cookies and all day long.
00:15:43.04\00:15:44.18
And God really used
that as a miracle really
00:15:44.21\00:15:47.91
in my life to change my life.
00:15:47.94\00:15:49.51
It was really the
turning point of my life,
00:15:49.54\00:15:51.06
but He used
those cookies to do it.
00:15:51.09\00:15:52.84
And it was--
00:15:52.88\00:15:53.93
I baked cookies all day long.
00:15:53.96\00:15:55.56
So you can read all
about it in my book.
00:15:55.59\00:15:57.13
But it's an amazing
story of just about--
00:15:57.16\00:15:59.23
It puts a smile on
just about anybody's face.
00:15:59.26\00:16:02.84
I like cookies so much
00:16:02.87\00:16:04.83
that our grandpa used
to call me Cookie because--
00:16:04.86\00:16:08.79
I would hide
cookies in my pocket.
00:16:08.82\00:16:11.60
They would always give us,
we didn't have a lot of money,
00:16:11.63\00:16:13.80
so they would
give us two cookies.
00:16:13.83\00:16:15.21
Yeah.
00:16:15.24\00:16:16.28
And I would hide one in my
pocket for later and save it.
00:16:16.31\00:16:19.45
And I would eat one.
00:16:19.48\00:16:21.18
And Mom would always
find them in the wash.
00:16:21.21\00:16:24.55
That's true.
00:16:24.58\00:16:25.72
Or under my pillow.
00:16:25.75\00:16:29.27
You were hiding it for
a rainy day or something.
00:16:29.30\00:16:32.26
So our carob cookies
are favorite of Jim's.
00:16:32.29\00:16:35.36
Jim's the name
of-- her husband's name.
00:16:35.39\00:16:37.24
This-- Well, I don't
always put Carob in it.
00:16:37.27\00:16:40.15
Okay.
00:16:40.18\00:16:41.21
So for him I
kind of make it plain.
00:16:41.24\00:16:43.13
But they're just easy
00:16:43.16\00:16:45.08
'cause this has no
baking powder or soda in it.
00:16:45.11\00:16:48.63
Oh, wow, okay.
00:16:48.66\00:16:49.93
So it's just like a--
it's like a shortbread cookie.
00:16:49.96\00:16:53.28
So you have a crescent.
00:16:53.31\00:16:54.51
That's why you're calling it
a crescent 'cause of the shape.
00:16:54.54\00:16:56.92
Yes. Yeah, okay.
00:16:56.95\00:16:58.58
All right, so we're
gonna put that in here,
00:16:58.61\00:17:01.80
and we're gonna
put my soy margarine.
00:17:01.83\00:17:03.45
All right.
00:17:03.48\00:17:04.51
And we're gonna put
our-- put our sugar in here.
00:17:04.54\00:17:07.78
And we're gonna put the
vanilla in here, and the water.
00:17:07.81\00:17:13.89
And then we're gonna whiz it up.
00:17:13.92\00:17:15.00
Cinda's taking
your peanuts over there.
00:17:15.03\00:17:16.87
Did you see that,
folks? She's getting peanuts.
00:17:16.90\00:17:18.74
I'll whiz it up.
00:17:18.77\00:17:21.71
I love peanuts.
00:17:21.74\00:17:22.95
Hey, you want to
slowly add my flour?
00:17:29.37\00:17:31.55
Sure.
00:17:31.58\00:17:32.96
And flour vary, so
it may not take it all.
00:17:32.99\00:17:39.25
In fact at this
point, I think I'll just--
00:17:39.28\00:17:41.56
You can go ahead and get
the margarine off of there.
00:17:41.59\00:17:43.80
And I'm just gonna fold it in.
00:17:43.83\00:17:45.97
Okay.
00:17:46.00\00:17:48.87
So you don't
want it too dry. No.
00:17:48.90\00:17:51.60
So can put some more in.
00:17:51.63\00:17:53.26
Okay.
00:17:53.29\00:17:56.27
There you go.
00:17:56.30\00:17:58.35
Okay.
00:17:58.38\00:18:00.49
Well, Linda, always did
like to do stuff by hand.
00:18:00.52\00:18:04.32
I started out--
00:18:04.35\00:18:06.05
You did. You know
how long that lasted.
00:18:06.08\00:18:08.11
But it didn't last.
00:18:08.14\00:18:10.42
She's like, oh,
well, forget this.
00:18:10.45\00:18:14.00
You know, grandma
taught me a lot of things.
00:18:14.03\00:18:17.37
And she didn't need anything--
00:18:17.40\00:18:19.62
What's she call it?
00:18:19.65\00:18:20.68
That new fangled
equipment or whatever--
00:18:20.71\00:18:23.93
Why, hon. I don't need that.
00:18:23.96\00:18:27.34
Yes.
00:18:27.37\00:18:28.85
Why would I use that?
My hands do just fine.
00:18:28.88\00:18:31.63
I tell you, she
could make noodles
00:18:31.66\00:18:33.69
better than
store bought noodles.
00:18:33.73\00:18:35.70
Yeah, she could.
00:18:35.73\00:18:36.85
Okay, put some more in.
00:18:36.88\00:18:38.63
All right.
00:18:38.66\00:18:41.18
She could make anything better.
00:18:41.21\00:18:43.02
Oh, man.
00:18:43.05\00:18:44.55
So are you
kneading the flour into it?
00:18:44.58\00:18:46.29
Yes.
00:18:46.32\00:18:50.54
You can take a
little more. Okay.
00:18:50.57\00:18:54.37
That's why I love
those gloves, too.
00:18:54.40\00:18:56.73
They're just--
00:18:56.76\00:18:59.00
Okay, a little bit more.
00:18:59.03\00:19:02.42
Someone asked me-- I
was gonna ask someone
00:19:02.45\00:19:05.68
to remind me to say this
00:19:05.71\00:19:06.93
and God just
gave it to me just now
00:19:06.96\00:19:08.15
because there's
people writing in,
00:19:08.18\00:19:10.59
where did we get
all the kitchen gloves
00:19:10.62\00:19:12.50
that we're using.
00:19:12.53\00:19:14.37
And you can get 'em
a lot less expensive
00:19:14.40\00:19:17.24
if you go to wholesale places
00:19:17.27\00:19:18.94
like Sam's
wholesale club or Costco.
00:19:18.97\00:19:22.11
And you can get 'em by
the box. Wal-Mart has them.
00:19:22.14\00:19:24.83
Not by the big box,
00:19:24.86\00:19:26.00
so they're a little
more expensive at Wal-Mart.
00:19:26.03\00:19:27.68
And they aren't this particular
kind that are more fitted.
00:19:27.71\00:19:30.24
Wal-Mart's are unfitted.
00:19:30.27\00:19:31.44
But you can get 'em
at-- You can get latex.
00:19:31.47\00:19:33.03
But they want to know
00:19:33.06\00:19:34.09
where we get
ours that fit so well.
00:19:34.12\00:19:35.52
So that's what I'm
trying to help you out here.
00:19:35.55\00:19:37.45
And we get ours at
Wal-Mart-- I mean not Wal-Mart.
00:19:37.48\00:19:40.22
At Costco. At Costco or Sam's.
00:19:40.25\00:19:41.34
I got you convinced.
00:19:41.37\00:19:42.40
Oh, I know.
00:19:42.43\00:19:45.07
Costco or Sam's Club
00:19:45.10\00:19:46.77
and that's where
you get it, so...
00:19:46.80\00:19:48.79
And they come in
small, medium and large.
00:19:48.82\00:19:50.67
I think it will
take a little bit more.
00:19:50.70\00:19:52.47
You can just put it on the end
00:19:52.50\00:19:53.54
and I'll work
it in if I want it.
00:19:53.57\00:19:55.30
Okay.
00:19:55.33\00:19:56.64
All right.
00:19:56.67\00:19:58.99
Yes, 'cause you see most
places have the latex gloves
00:19:59.02\00:20:03.75
but they're not fitted
00:20:03.78\00:20:04.85
and they're kind
of bulky that way.
00:20:04.88\00:20:06.71
And they like the
way ours fits, so...
00:20:06.74\00:20:08.14
Yeah.
00:20:08.17\00:20:09.79
When we get good tips
here, we pass them on to you.
00:20:09.82\00:20:13.65
Right, sisters?
00:20:13.68\00:20:14.74
That's right. That's right.
00:20:14.77\00:20:16.13
Okay, I think it
feels pretty good.
00:20:16.16\00:20:19.21
All right. 'Cause you
don't want it too dry.
00:20:19.24\00:20:20.74
No, we don't want it too dry.
00:20:20.77\00:20:22.27
So see, we
didn't use all of them.
00:20:22.30\00:20:23.89
Now you want to
change your gloves?
00:20:23.92\00:20:26.07
No, she's not done.
00:20:26.10\00:20:27.18
You want me to spray this?
00:20:27.21\00:20:29.37
Yeah, you can spay the pan.
00:20:29.40\00:20:30.92
Okay.
00:20:30.95\00:20:34.44
So just make them straight
00:20:34.47\00:20:35.82
or do you make a crescent shape?
00:20:35.85\00:20:37.82
You can do either one.
00:20:37.85\00:20:39.02
You want to make
a crescent shape.
00:20:39.05\00:20:40.30
Well, since they are crescents
00:20:40.33\00:20:41.61
we'll make them
crescents, right.
00:20:41.64\00:20:42.67
Okay.
00:20:42.70\00:20:43.73
So we're just
turning them like this,
00:20:43.76\00:20:45.81
that's a crescent
shape, and kind of mount them.
00:20:45.84\00:20:49.02
Like a half moon.
00:20:49.05\00:20:51.28
Okay, there you go.
00:20:51.31\00:20:54.27
And that's just about
all there is to do it.
00:20:54.30\00:20:55.95
But what about the--
00:20:55.98\00:20:59.97
She had her husband in
mind when she was making them.
00:21:00.00\00:21:02.42
I know. So if that
happens just work it in.
00:21:02.45\00:21:05.75
Yeah, and then
work the peanut taste.
00:21:05.78\00:21:06.90
Somebody here
probably is allergic to nuts
00:21:06.93\00:21:08.73
and that's really a good
thing, you made them for them.
00:21:08.76\00:21:10.61
Or you can just
put a few on top.
00:21:10.64\00:21:12.52
No. Not one of those.
00:21:12.55\00:21:17.27
You can seriously do
that. I've done that before.
00:21:17.30\00:21:19.96
I've just put a few on
top and they've been fine.
00:21:19.99\00:21:22.91
Okay.
00:21:22.94\00:21:23.99
We give me a
crescent right in here.
00:21:24.02\00:21:26.42
Okay, there you go. All right.
00:21:26.45\00:21:30.51
Yeah, we can't forget them
peanuts in those carob chips.
00:21:30.54\00:21:33.58
Yeah.
00:21:33.61\00:21:34.93
And if you don't want
them in crescent shape,
00:21:37.29\00:21:39.40
she's got some over
there that you'll show now.
00:21:39.43\00:21:41.40
What do you do after these bake?
00:21:41.43\00:21:42.76
You're gonna bake
them for how long?
00:21:42.79\00:21:43.82
I'm gonna bake them for 10-12
minutes depending on your oven.
00:21:43.85\00:21:49.25
And just until they
are nice golden color,
00:21:49.28\00:21:51.33
and then make a frosting
and Cinda has all this here.
00:21:51.36\00:21:55.20
You just mix that together,
00:21:55.23\00:21:58.28
you just put it
all in and mix it,
00:21:58.31\00:22:00.21
stir it up, mix it together.
00:22:00.24\00:22:01.58
And you put it on top
when it comes out of the oven
00:22:01.61\00:22:03.67
while it's still hot.
00:22:03.70\00:22:05.96
And that's all you have to do.
00:22:05.99\00:22:07.45
And then you just drizzle
it. Drizzle it over the top.
00:22:07.48\00:22:09.63
And you can put a few
more chopped nuts on it
00:22:09.66\00:22:11.95
and you got it.
00:22:11.98\00:22:13.01
I got one here already.
00:22:13.04\00:22:14.11
And these you
didn't shape in crescents,
00:22:14.14\00:22:15.68
so you can do it either way.
00:22:15.71\00:22:16.78
As you can see
she's got one here,
00:22:16.81\00:22:17.91
and she just puts
the carob topping on it
00:22:17.94\00:22:21.06
and then the
peanuts, crushed peanuts.
00:22:21.09\00:22:24.97
You know what else
we have? That's right.
00:22:25.00\00:22:26.75
My lemon drop cookies. Let
me read the recipe for you.
00:22:26.78\00:22:31.70
For this you will need...
00:22:31.73\00:22:33.80
Ooh, that's good.
00:23:07.86\00:23:09.42
And I like lemon
zest the best I think.
00:23:09.45\00:23:11.76
Then that's what I'm
using because I do, too.
00:23:11.79\00:23:15.27
I just think it tastes better.
00:23:15.30\00:23:17.23
Okay, we're gonna--
00:23:17.26\00:23:18.92
We're kind of zesty, so...
00:23:18.95\00:23:20.30
There you go.
00:23:20.33\00:23:21.36
She's full of zest.
00:23:21.39\00:23:22.42
What? Oh.
00:23:22.45\00:23:23.99
She's fun. That's Cinda.
00:23:24.02\00:23:27.88
Okay, so you're
gonna with your margarine
00:23:27.91\00:23:32.03
and when you get it
just kind of soft like that,
00:23:32.06\00:23:35.52
add the powdered
sugar a little bit,
00:23:35.55\00:23:37.67
but nope, let's add
the lemon juice now.
00:23:37.70\00:23:40.73
Just a little bit, alternate.
00:23:40.76\00:23:43.84
You can add all the lemon juice.
00:23:43.87\00:23:47.67
And this is fresh
squeezed lemon juice. Whoa.
00:23:47.70\00:23:53.24
You're
decorating your apron here.
00:23:53.27\00:23:55.20
I'm decorating my apron.
That's what aprons are for.
00:23:55.23\00:23:59.31
Yeah, there's got to
be a reason you wear them.
00:23:59.34\00:24:01.04
I always told my kids that
00:24:05.39\00:24:08.72
don't ever worry about
making a mess in the kitchen
00:24:08.75\00:24:11.29
because you can just
have fun cleaning it up.
00:24:11.32\00:24:14.71
And she does say that to her--
00:24:14.74\00:24:15.88
Hey, sis, will you add
our dry ingredients together
00:24:15.91\00:24:17.81
and stir 'em up.
00:24:17.84\00:24:19.11
And then let's put them in.
00:24:19.14\00:24:23.68
And I'm gonna whip a
little bit and then put it in.
00:24:23.71\00:24:27.49
Is that good?
That's good enough.
00:24:27.52\00:24:29.26
Okay.
00:24:29.29\00:24:30.34
Go for it.
00:24:36.52\00:24:38.17
Notice she's incorporating
just a little bit of floura
00:24:38.20\00:24:40.74
little bit at a time into your--
00:24:40.77\00:24:43.62
That's to avoid a snowstorm.
00:24:43.65\00:24:48.35
A snowstorm of flour.
00:24:48.38\00:24:50.88
And see it
starts getting into a--
00:24:58.56\00:25:00.83
once that flour
starts incorporating,
00:25:02.71\00:25:05.26
then it starts
to get dough-like.
00:25:05.29\00:25:08.60
It starts out real
crumbly, don't worry about it.
00:25:08.63\00:25:10.99
You can hear even the
change of the mixer sound,
00:25:11.02\00:25:13.84
you know, when it's
starting to get done.
00:25:13.87\00:25:15.96
See, there you go
and now it's dough.
00:25:15.99\00:25:19.55
And then you're gonna
take your lemon zester,
00:25:19.58\00:25:22.29
and there's different
types of lemon zesters.
00:25:22.32\00:25:24.71
And you can just
00:25:24.74\00:25:26.42
put a little bit
of the lemon zest in.
00:25:26.45\00:25:28.96
Let me move this out.
00:25:28.99\00:25:30.07
And that's just
really like you're doing
00:25:30.10\00:25:32.37
the skins of the lemon.
00:25:32.40\00:25:34.16
I love the smell of this.
00:25:34.19\00:25:36.31
Ooh, that does
smell good. I know.
00:25:36.34\00:25:37.88
Okay.
00:25:37.91\00:25:39.02
Now at this point--
You just stir that in.
00:25:39.05\00:25:42.52
And at this point you're
going to shape it into a ball.
00:25:42.55\00:25:49.21
And then cover
this with plastic wrap
00:25:49.24\00:25:52.70
and let it sit
in your refrigerator
00:25:52.73\00:25:56.82
and chill it for one hour.
00:25:56.85\00:25:58.76
Okay. And so if
you can disappear that.
00:25:58.79\00:26:02.18
Let me get all your
decorations down here.
00:26:02.21\00:26:05.82
And we're
having fun cleaning up.
00:26:05.85\00:26:07.82
There you go. That's right.
00:26:07.85\00:26:09.36
Hey, let's just have
a little fun right here.
00:26:09.39\00:26:14.30
Then I take just
an ordinary tablespoon
00:26:14.33\00:26:17.21
and if you have a little scoop
00:26:17.24\00:26:20.15
that looks like those
little ice cream scoops
00:26:20.18\00:26:22.55
or little cookie
scoops, you can use that, too.
00:26:22.58\00:26:25.48
But if you don't, you
do like our mother did,
00:26:25.51\00:26:29.44
and you teach to improvise.
00:26:29.47\00:26:32.34
That's right, be a
little innovative, creative.
00:26:32.37\00:26:34.66
And...
00:26:34.69\00:26:36.93
Tap it good. Tap it good.
00:26:36.96\00:26:38.07
And then--
00:26:38.10\00:26:39.17
So it comes out in a
little ball like that.
00:26:39.20\00:26:41.94
And I take it and I go
like this and crisscross.
00:26:41.97\00:26:46.62
I press it down
because I like it thin.
00:26:46.65\00:26:49.55
This will not spread out.
00:26:49.58\00:26:51.59
So if you want little mounds,
00:26:51.62\00:26:54.49
you can call them little
lemon snowballs if you want,
00:26:54.52\00:26:58.45
then you don't
have to press them down.
00:26:58.48\00:27:01.65
And then what you'll do,
00:27:01.68\00:27:03.27
you're gonna bake
these at 350 degrees
00:27:03.30\00:27:06.70
for 13-15 minutes depending
00:27:06.73\00:27:10.40
if you want a
little softer cookie
00:27:10.43\00:27:12.00
or a little crisper cookie.
00:27:12.03\00:27:14.88
So I know that
Christine Neubauer,
00:27:14.91\00:27:18.25
she helps us a lot
00:27:18.28\00:27:20.12
and she's
amazing in the kitchen.
00:27:20.15\00:27:22.07
Blessing.
00:27:22.10\00:27:23.56
Such a blessing.
00:27:23.59\00:27:24.69
She likes them a little
crispy but Melissa Hoffman
00:27:24.72\00:27:27.57
your assistant likes
them a little softer.
00:27:27.60\00:27:30.19
Likes them soft--
00:27:30.22\00:27:32.09
So they're in the back going,
"Take them out of the oven.
00:27:32.12\00:27:34.89
No! Put them back in the oven.
00:27:34.92\00:27:36.35
No, take them out of the oven.
Put them back in the oven."
00:27:36.38\00:27:38.60
But not quite that dramatic.
00:27:38.63\00:27:41.12
Oh, no. But I like that.
00:27:41.15\00:27:42.25
How do they do that again?
00:27:42.28\00:27:47.19
So now what am
I doing over here?
00:27:47.22\00:27:48.83
And so for the frosting
all you do, it's a glaze,
00:27:48.86\00:27:51.96
and you just add
your almond or soy milk.
00:27:51.99\00:27:55.66
I really encourage you to
use the fresh lemon juice.
00:27:55.69\00:27:59.55
It really makes a
difference. It does.
00:27:59.58\00:28:02.28
And it then looks
like hardly any liquid
00:28:02.31\00:28:05.81
but as you can see, as you stir
00:28:05.84\00:28:09.48
and it gets
incorporated into it, it's thin.
00:28:09.51\00:28:12.80
And you want it thin
because then what I do--
00:28:12.83\00:28:17.05
That's perfect, so
that's exactly what I want.
00:28:17.08\00:28:20.10
Isn't that nice how
sisters anticipate your needs
00:28:20.13\00:28:22.79
and just help you out?
00:28:22.82\00:28:25.30
And so then what I do is I
put this in a zip lock bag.
00:28:25.33\00:28:30.48
I snip the corner off.
00:28:30.51\00:28:32.73
Just a tiny bit.
And then I just drizzle.
00:28:32.76\00:28:34.82
I squeeze and just
drizzle over the baked cookies.
00:28:34.85\00:28:37.79
And you can see--
And then you put them--
00:28:37.82\00:28:39.90
I have some done
and I sprinkle the top
00:28:39.93\00:28:42.81
with a little bit of lemon zest,
00:28:42.84\00:28:45.61
while they are still moist.
00:28:45.64\00:28:49.17
Oh, and those are good.
00:28:49.20\00:28:51.59
We have something
really special coming up, too.
00:28:51.62\00:28:55.06
That's right, you
know, you're gonna love this.
00:28:55.09\00:28:58.90
This is Brenda's caramel
apple pie. Caramel apple cake.
00:28:58.93\00:29:02.64
Oh, I was
starting to say cake. Pie!
00:29:02.67\00:29:04.87
It's pie.
00:29:04.90\00:29:07.61
That's what I'm making.
00:29:07.64\00:29:09.16
Well, let me read
the recipe for you.
00:29:09.19\00:29:10.94
For this you will need...
00:29:10.97\00:29:12.80
Now it sounds like
a lot of ingredients
00:30:05.15\00:30:07.12
but I love caramel apples.
00:30:07.15\00:30:09.79
And that's what kind of made
me think of this for this pie.
00:30:09.82\00:30:11.94
I love caramel apples.
00:30:11.97\00:30:13.28
I always get a caramel apple
when we go to Mackinac Island.
00:30:13.31\00:30:16.44
Yeah, and I like
them covered with nuts.
00:30:16.47\00:30:19.71
you know, either
peanuts or-- Peanuts.
00:30:19.74\00:30:22.79
And pecans is my favorite,
00:30:22.82\00:30:24.12
so, and Linda just
doesn't care for sweets.
00:30:24.15\00:30:25.94
What's your favorite?
00:30:25.97\00:30:27.66
What's your favorite nut?
00:30:27.69\00:30:28.78
I think which ever
one I'm eating but--
00:30:28.81\00:30:32.60
She's like that.
00:30:32.63\00:30:34.51
Yeah, I do.
00:30:34.54\00:30:35.57
Yeah, so there's so many
ways that you can do this.
00:30:35.60\00:30:41.19
This is gonna be to
shorten this process.
00:30:41.22\00:30:43.97
One is I included a recipe
of my flaky no fail pie crust.
00:30:44.00\00:30:48.60
It's an oil crust
recipe, it's so easy.
00:30:48.63\00:30:50.96
I've demonstrated on
the air here many times.
00:30:50.99\00:30:53.56
So I'm not gonna do that today,
00:30:53.59\00:30:55.29
I although I did
give you the recipe again.
00:30:55.32\00:30:57.71
Or you can use your
own favorite pie crust.
00:30:57.74\00:31:01.80
Or if you're just intimidated
00:31:01.83\00:31:04.16
to make pie
crust and you're just,
00:31:04.19\00:31:05.72
you know what, or
you don't have time--
00:31:05.75\00:31:07.66
Right then, you know what?
00:31:07.69\00:31:09.18
You can buy pie
crust already made.
00:31:09.21\00:31:11.35
But you'll have to
watch the ingredients
00:31:11.38\00:31:13.05
'cause there's a lot
of it is made with lard.
00:31:13.08\00:31:15.09
So you'll have to be careful.
00:31:15.12\00:31:16.79
They do have some that--
00:31:16.82\00:31:17.99
Oh, yes. Yes.
00:31:18.02\00:31:19.51
So you can get it. So
there's lots of options.
00:31:19.54\00:31:22.48
This is the one
that I made today
00:31:22.51\00:31:24.68
and this is the no fail
flaky pie crust like that.
00:31:24.71\00:31:28.47
So and it's in a deep dish pie,
00:31:28.50\00:31:31.12
so I want you to see that, okay.
00:31:31.15\00:31:33.05
All right, so I like
the way you fluted it
00:31:33.08\00:31:35.66
all the way around.
00:31:35.69\00:31:36.76
Well, Mamma
taught us how to do that.
00:31:36.79\00:31:37.82
Exactly.
00:31:37.85\00:31:38.88
I can't take
credit for that either.
00:31:38.91\00:31:41.44
That was-- That's
signature Mom crust right there.
00:31:41.47\00:31:45.26
'Cause there's so many
different ways to flute a crust
00:31:45.29\00:31:47.16
and that are, you
know, unique and--
00:31:47.19\00:31:49.72
But that's Mom for sure.
00:31:49.75\00:31:51.35
Okay, I'm gonna get both of
you to start peeling apples.
00:31:51.38\00:31:53.60
And Cinda said at home
when she makes apple pie,
00:31:53.63\00:31:57.35
how do you cut your apples?
00:31:57.38\00:31:58.50
I cut them in shorter pieces.
You like them in longer pieces.
00:31:58.53\00:32:02.46
I just like-- but you know what,
00:32:02.49\00:32:04.57
honestly however you
want to do them is fine.
00:32:04.60\00:32:07.06
Just slice them up if you--
00:32:07.09\00:32:09.64
some people like diced apple pie
00:32:09.67\00:32:11.77
because they don't like to
have a big bite of apple so...
00:32:11.80\00:32:15.74
You know, our niece Jenny,
00:32:15.77\00:32:19.06
she'll take apple pie any
way you want to make them.
00:32:19.09\00:32:21.12
She loves, that's her favorite.
00:32:21.15\00:32:23.38
Aww, I didn't know that.
00:32:23.41\00:32:24.90
Yeah, every time
she'll come up for the weekend
00:32:24.93\00:32:27.53
and I'll say, "Well,
Jenny, what do you want to eat?"
00:32:27.56\00:32:29.74
She goes, "Aunty,
could I have some apple pie?"
00:32:29.77\00:32:33.03
And I said, "Well,
I was sort of thinking
00:32:33.06\00:32:34.30
like entre
vegetable, you know, salad."
00:32:34.33\00:32:39.50
Just get right to the apple pie.
00:32:39.53\00:32:43.45
Well, you know,
00:32:43.48\00:32:44.51
she probably doesn't
have much time to make it
00:32:44.54\00:32:46.50
because she has the
two little kids and--
00:32:46.53\00:32:49.22
Yes.
00:32:49.25\00:32:50.32
Girls, so...
00:32:50.35\00:32:51.42
While they're peeling,
I'm gonna crank this up
00:32:51.45\00:32:53.91
and before it
starts getting hot.
00:32:53.94\00:32:55.45
This is a critical
point 'cause I've got
00:32:55.48\00:32:57.23
my frozen apple
juice concentrate in here.
00:32:57.26\00:32:59.85
And you are going
to add the cornstarch
00:32:59.88\00:33:02.14
while it's all still cold
00:33:02.17\00:33:03.77
because you never want to
add cornstarch to anything warm
00:33:03.80\00:33:08.64
'cause it will
just give you lumps.
00:33:08.67\00:33:10.25
Lump instantly.
00:33:10.28\00:33:11.31
So I'm gonna quickly start
stirring this in really quick.
00:33:11.34\00:33:16.16
And before it starts getting hot
00:33:16.19\00:33:19.41
because while it's still cold
00:33:19.44\00:33:20.66
I've got to get
all those lumps out.
00:33:20.69\00:33:23.00
And you can see I
got it right here.
00:33:23.03\00:33:24.58
Just kind of put
down here so you can see
00:33:24.61\00:33:26.74
and there you go.
00:33:26.77\00:33:29.04
And that is going
to just get hot here
00:33:29.07\00:33:31.07
and just thicken for me.
00:33:31.10\00:33:32.90
Then they get nice and thick.
00:33:32.93\00:33:34.89
And when that starts--
when that gets really hot,
00:33:34.92\00:33:40.04
when it starts to
bubble it thickens really fast.
00:33:40.07\00:33:42.65
So that after it thickens
00:33:42.68\00:33:44.16
we're just gonna add
our cinnamon and stir it.
00:33:44.19\00:33:47.58
And then all these
apples that they're slicing here
00:33:47.61\00:33:51.02
I'm going to just
put them in the bowl.
00:33:51.05\00:33:53.90
And I'm going to
pour the thickened
00:33:53.93\00:33:56.38
apple juice concentrate
right over the apples.
00:33:56.41\00:33:58.92
And that is gonna go
into our pie plate first.
00:33:58.95\00:34:01.97
Okay, so they're gonna
have to have a contest here
00:34:02.00\00:34:05.22
I think who can peel--
slice them a little faster.
00:34:05.25\00:34:07.58
No, you know what Mom told us.
00:34:07.61\00:34:09.60
Oh, yeah. You can't
race when you have a knife.
00:34:09.63\00:34:11.46
Kids, when you have a
knife, you cannot race.
00:34:11.49\00:34:13.50
That's right.
00:34:13.53\00:34:14.57
Mom, I remember
what you tell us.
00:34:14.60\00:34:18.28
Well, most of the
stuff you tell us.
00:34:18.31\00:34:20.43
All right, so let me see here.
00:34:20.46\00:34:23.09
So we're just
gonna slice, slice, slice
00:34:23.12\00:34:26.81
and get those in there,
00:34:26.84\00:34:28.24
so that I'm trying
to beat the clock here.
00:34:28.27\00:34:30.52
So by the time I've got
the apple juice concentrate
00:34:30.55\00:34:34.90
thickening all our
apples here will be ready.
00:34:34.93\00:34:37.89
And ready to go, just like that.
00:34:37.92\00:34:41.60
And tell them
about one-- I mean,
00:34:41.63\00:34:43.59
there's so many
different types of apples
00:34:43.62\00:34:45.52
that you can use for your pie.
00:34:45.55\00:34:47.45
I use this
golden delicious partly
00:34:47.48\00:34:50.87
because Grandma Micheff loved.
00:34:50.90\00:34:52.19
That was her
favorite apple pie apple.
00:34:52.22\00:34:54.70
She would say, I
know she loves, you know,
00:34:54.73\00:34:58.08
different kinds of apples,
00:34:58.11\00:34:59.56
but her favorite she told
me was the golden delicious.
00:34:59.59\00:35:02.64
And so I'm gonna
show you quickly here.
00:35:02.67\00:35:05.44
You know, I like to use--
00:35:05.47\00:35:07.41
I'm gonna get some over here.
00:35:07.44\00:35:08.65
Oh, okay.
00:35:08.68\00:35:09.98
I like to use several
different types of apples.
00:35:10.01\00:35:16.51
Oops, I dropped
an apple in there.
00:35:16.54\00:35:18.89
I confess I was the
one that dropped it.
00:35:18.92\00:35:20.86
Oh, there you go. I got it.
00:35:20.89\00:35:22.86
I rescued-- rescued the apple.
00:35:22.89\00:35:24.12
Thank you.
00:35:24.15\00:35:25.23
Don't anybody stop
breathing the apple is rescued.
00:35:25.26\00:35:28.34
I was just thinking,
well, maybe she won't notice.
00:35:28.37\00:35:33.20
So that's got to
get nice and thick.
00:35:33.23\00:35:36.22
Let it bubble up good.
00:35:36.25\00:35:38.06
I don't know,
00:35:38.09\00:35:39.16
Linda's doing a pretty
good job over here, sis.
00:35:39.19\00:35:41.12
You cut most of my apple there.
00:35:41.15\00:35:44.62
She will not let me give
her any glory at all, is she?
00:35:44.65\00:35:46.97
No.
00:35:47.00\00:35:48.74
There we go. Let
me give you some more.
00:35:48.77\00:35:54.26
There you go.
00:35:54.29\00:35:56.07
Now while she's doing that,
Cinda, why don't you go ahead,
00:35:56.10\00:35:59.96
give me those apples over there.
00:35:59.99\00:36:01.27
And this is all of
our streusels ingredients.
00:36:01.30\00:36:04.63
Can you just put all our
streusel ingredients together,
00:36:04.66\00:36:07.10
and I'm just gonna--
Actually there you go.
00:36:07.13\00:36:13.33
So, sis, if you would--
00:36:13.36\00:36:15.04
Two more.
00:36:15.07\00:36:16.14
I want to actually have
you-- I'm gonna put this--
00:36:16.17\00:36:18.54
Can you turn
that fire off for me?
00:36:18.57\00:36:19.91
Cinnamon goes in, stir that up
00:36:19.94\00:36:22.03
and you can see how
thick this is, right here.
00:36:22.06\00:36:26.35
And I'm gonna put
that right over here.
00:36:26.38\00:36:29.39
And this is gonna just
pour over these apples.
00:36:29.42\00:36:31.99
Look at that.
Boy, it smells good.
00:36:32.02\00:36:33.61
Oh, I love cinnamon.
Oh, it smells wonderful.
00:36:33.64\00:36:35.40
So I'm not putting a lot.
00:36:35.43\00:36:36.56
This is all the natural,
00:36:36.59\00:36:37.81
this is apple juice concentrates
00:36:37.84\00:36:39.08
with all the apples.
00:36:39.11\00:36:40.39
So I don't have all
that sugar in there.
00:36:40.42\00:36:42.61
And you're just gonna,
sis, you're gonna mix that up
00:36:42.64\00:36:46.10
for me while
Cinda and I are quickly
00:36:46.13\00:36:48.18
going to put all
the ingredients in here.
00:36:48.21\00:36:50.38
Oh, it smells wonderful.
00:36:50.41\00:36:51.88
I know.
00:36:51.91\00:36:52.95
I'm gonna put my gloves
on, and do this really quick.
00:36:52.98\00:36:57.49
Yep, let me just incorporate
00:37:02.56\00:37:03.98
this margarine in
here really quick.
00:37:04.01\00:37:07.49
And, Cinda-- Linda,
as soon as that in pour
00:37:07.52\00:37:10.38
that right into the pie plate
right over there if you would.
00:37:10.41\00:37:13.51
I am just going to just get the-
00:37:13.54\00:37:16.47
blend the
margarine all into the flour.
00:37:16.50\00:37:19.91
Add the nut, sis.
00:37:19.94\00:37:21.45
Just a minute.
Let me help Linda.
00:37:21.48\00:37:23.88
Wait, wait, wait, that's enough.
00:37:23.91\00:37:25.14
We might have got bigger apples
than what most people have.
00:37:25.17\00:37:28.16
I wondering about that.
So I don't want anymore.
00:37:28.19\00:37:29.53
I was wondering about that.
00:37:29.56\00:37:31.55
Cinda, why don't you take some
of those out for me real quick?
00:37:31.58\00:37:33.86
Okay, I'll take them
out. Don't worry, she is.
00:37:33.89\00:37:35.15
She's taking them out.
00:37:35.18\00:37:36.21
Oh, she's taking them out.
00:37:36.24\00:37:37.46
All right, so then
here the nuts and--
00:37:37.49\00:37:39.54
That's really good.
00:37:39.57\00:37:41.19
So let me put
this right over here.
00:37:41.22\00:37:44.35
Maybe that'd make a nice glaze
for just some sliced apples.
00:37:44.38\00:37:47.28
So you're just
gonna take the streusel
00:37:47.31\00:37:49.06
and if they are extra big apples
00:37:49.09\00:37:50.76
you don't want to
fill it this full.
00:37:50.79\00:37:52.26
Okay, so you won't need,
these were really big apples.
00:37:52.29\00:37:55.06
And so you don't
want it to be that big.
00:37:55.09\00:37:57.16
And you're just gonna
put your streusel like that,
00:37:57.19\00:37:59.42
you can at this point
make your caramel sauce,
00:37:59.45\00:38:02.29
which I'm not gonna make today
00:38:02.32\00:38:03.50
'cause it takes about 20
minutes to cook that sauce.
00:38:03.53\00:38:06.35
And, but the recipe is there.
00:38:06.38\00:38:08.21
You are just
cooking that sauce together
00:38:08.24\00:38:10.31
and then you can drizzle
00:38:10.34\00:38:11.93
your caramel at
this point and bake it,
00:38:11.96\00:38:14.16
or you can put it on after
it's baked, when it's warm.
00:38:14.19\00:38:17.54
Which is what I did today.
00:38:17.57\00:38:19.40
And you bake this pie.
00:38:19.43\00:38:20.76
Remember to cover the
edges with your aluminum foil
00:38:20.79\00:38:23.57
so they don't burn.
00:38:23.60\00:38:25.20
It's gonna bake for about 50-55
minutes in a 400 degree oven.
00:38:25.23\00:38:31.76
And then when
it's gonna come out,
00:38:31.79\00:38:33.83
it's gonna look just like that.
00:38:33.86\00:38:35.51
It's gorgeous.
00:38:35.54\00:38:36.74
Mmm-mmm-mmm.
00:38:36.77\00:38:39.78
Okay, Linda, you've
got our pumpkin parfaits.
00:38:39.81\00:38:45.00
That's right. That's right.
00:38:45.03\00:38:46.19
Let me read the recipe.
00:38:46.22\00:38:47.25
You will need...
00:38:47.28\00:38:48.31
Now this dessert can be made
00:39:06.52\00:39:08.03
the day before and
it looks just as pretty
00:39:08.06\00:39:11.93
and nice as it did
when you first made it.
00:39:11.96\00:39:14.75
Oh, that's a good recipe to add.
00:39:14.78\00:39:16.63
Yeah, you can
make it, like, say,
00:39:16.66\00:39:18.53
if you wanted to
do something especial
00:39:18.56\00:39:20.51
for a special occasion
or for Sabbath or something.
00:39:20.54\00:39:25.57
Or just because you love me.
00:39:25.60\00:39:30.82
Or just because I love you.
00:39:30.85\00:39:33.27
You could take this, make it up,
00:39:33.30\00:39:35.98
put it in the refrigerator,
00:39:36.01\00:39:37.30
you don't really
even have to cover it.
00:39:37.33\00:39:39.35
It'll be fine with the
whipped topping on top.
00:39:39.38\00:39:41.85
And then you just
serve it the next day.
00:39:41.88\00:39:43.91
It's all ready to serve
00:39:43.94\00:39:44.99
and it makes
the company dessert.
00:39:45.02\00:39:47.56
Or if you were just
doing something special
00:39:47.59\00:39:49.17
for family it makes it easy.
00:39:49.20\00:39:51.27
So I like that because
and it's something that,
00:39:51.30\00:39:54.28
your kids can help
you make the day before.
00:39:54.31\00:39:55.89
Well, you can make it special
for me because I love pumpkin.
00:39:55.92\00:40:00.27
Oh, okay. I do, too.
00:40:00.30\00:40:01.37
Now what are you
using right here?
00:40:01.40\00:40:02.78
This is a
substitute for cream cheese
00:40:02.81\00:40:05.01
and it's called
better than cream cheese.
00:40:05.04\00:40:06.76
And we have one right here.
00:40:06.79\00:40:08.07
Tofutti.
00:40:08.10\00:40:09.13
Tofutti, better
than cream cheese.
00:40:09.16\00:40:11.08
And if your
supermarket doesn't carry it,
00:40:11.11\00:40:13.35
if you go your manager and say,
00:40:13.38\00:40:15.34
"Look, I really
like using this product.
00:40:15.37\00:40:16.97
Would you mind ordering this
and including at your store?"
00:40:17.00\00:40:19.61
You know, most groceries
will do that for you for items.
00:40:19.64\00:40:22.60
If you don't have
these products available
00:40:22.63\00:40:25.10
in your area, then
use a light or no fat,
00:40:25.13\00:40:30.30
low fat cream
cheese, just a regular one.
00:40:30.33\00:40:33.07
Yeah.
00:40:33.10\00:40:34.13
And that will work fine,
too. And this is our pumpkin.
00:40:34.16\00:40:35.72
It's solid pumpkin.
00:40:35.75\00:40:36.98
There is no seasoning or
sweetener, anything in it.
00:40:37.01\00:40:41.43
So we're gonna put that in here.
00:40:41.46\00:40:45.20
I think we got it all.
00:40:45.23\00:40:46.26
My sisters and I,
00:40:46.29\00:40:47.32
we travel all over the
world and we've heard--
00:40:47.35\00:40:48.98
Some pure maple syrup.
00:40:49.01\00:40:50.39
From places they've
told us that there's--
00:40:50.42\00:40:52.34
some place they can't
even get these products.
00:40:52.37\00:40:54.35
So they-- You know,
00:40:54.38\00:40:55.54
we have to think of them, too.
00:40:55.57\00:40:56.60
It's an
international network, so...
00:40:56.63\00:40:58.37
And we've got some vanilla.
00:40:58.40\00:41:00.87
And then we're gonna put
some pumpkin pie spice in.
00:41:00.90\00:41:05.62
All right, and then
we're gonna whiz it up.
00:41:05.65\00:41:09.10
I'm using a mixer.
00:41:09.13\00:41:10.39
You're whizzing? I'm whizzing.
00:41:10.42\00:41:12.07
All right.
00:41:12.10\00:41:13.14
She's zesting
and you're whizzing.
00:41:13.17\00:41:14.49
You forgot to plug your ears.
00:41:24.09\00:41:25.52
She forgot to warn me.
00:41:27.11\00:41:29.24
Some just went
in my mouth I think.
00:41:29.27\00:41:32.09
That's a good
place for it to land.
00:41:32.12\00:41:34.67
Okay, that's probably good.
00:41:34.70\00:41:38.04
So here you can have that.
00:41:38.07\00:41:39.45
All right.
00:41:39.48\00:41:41.03
I was hoping
you'd give that to me,
00:41:41.06\00:41:42.09
I was waiting for it all day.
00:41:42.12\00:41:44.65
That's about all you need to do,
00:41:44.68\00:41:46.41
and now we're
just gonna assemble it.
00:41:46.44\00:41:48.12
We'll share this.
We'll each make up one.
00:41:48.15\00:41:50.74
Okay.What's this?
00:41:50.77\00:41:52.48
And this is the same
thing as that I made up earlier.
00:41:52.51\00:41:55.18
So you can use that to put
in yours, or you can use this.
00:41:55.21\00:41:58.62
And what is this right here?
00:41:58.65\00:42:00.32
This here is
graham cracker crumbs.
00:42:00.35\00:42:04.81
So you're gonna make layers.
00:42:04.84\00:42:06.06
You're gonna put a
little bit of the pumpkin down.
00:42:06.09\00:42:08.33
Then you're gonna put--
00:42:08.36\00:42:09.39
sprinkle some
graham cracker crumbs.
00:42:09.42\00:42:11.23
And then some whipped toping
00:42:11.26\00:42:12.58
and you're just gonna keep going
00:42:12.61\00:42:13.83
and till you get to the top.
00:42:13.86\00:42:14.89
Can I have this spoon then, sis?
00:42:14.92\00:42:16.35
There you go.
00:42:16.38\00:42:17.41
All right, so
some of this down here.
00:42:17.44\00:42:20.54
So you can put some down.
00:42:20.57\00:42:21.88
And then the crumbs.
00:42:21.91\00:42:23.14
And I think the idea is--
00:42:23.17\00:42:24.49
A little bit of crumbs you said?
00:42:24.52\00:42:25.58
You try not to get
it up on the sides.
00:42:25.61\00:42:28.80
You try to get it pretty even.
00:42:28.83\00:42:30.83
I think we need
some more spoons.
00:42:30.86\00:42:32.48
What do you think?
00:42:32.51\00:42:34.33
Okay. Well, I'm
just gonna make do.
00:42:34.36\00:42:39.26
You want to do this?
00:42:39.29\00:42:40.88
Yeah, because you don't
want to get the pumpkin on here.
00:42:40.91\00:42:43.77
Yeah.
00:42:43.80\00:42:45.37
Do you need some?
00:42:45.40\00:42:46.70
I do but--
00:42:46.73\00:42:48.04
There you go.
00:42:48.07\00:42:49.87
I think I'm gonna ask,
Melissa, can we have a spoon?
00:42:49.90\00:42:53.58
Oh, here she comes, right here.
00:42:53.61\00:42:56.71
Boy, now that was
good. She's so efficient.
00:42:56.74\00:43:00.09
All right. She is efficient.
00:43:00.12\00:43:02.07
All right. That's the truth.
00:43:02.10\00:43:05.60
Okay, so... Okay.
00:43:05.63\00:43:06.97
And I forgot my crumbs,
so don't worry if you forget
00:43:07.00\00:43:09.39
because it doesn't have
to have a particular order.
00:43:09.42\00:43:11.80
We just--
00:43:11.83\00:43:12.86
And really the--
really the trick of this,
00:43:12.89\00:43:15.19
the trick to
here is to making sure
00:43:15.22\00:43:17.21
that when you-- what touches
00:43:17.24\00:43:18.78
the sides only touches it once.
00:43:18.81\00:43:21.16
So as you build the layers,
each layer has its own look
00:43:21.19\00:43:24.10
on the outside of the glass.
00:43:24.13\00:43:26.49
And having said that
I just messed up but--
00:43:26.52\00:43:29.98
It's all right, we're
gonna put some more of this.
00:43:30.01\00:43:31.45
Yeah, some of this.
00:43:31.48\00:43:34.55
Hey, wait a minute.
00:43:34.58\00:43:35.72
She's eating hers and she
hasn't even got finished yet.
00:43:35.75\00:43:40.21
I got two layers
and I couldn't wait.
00:43:40.24\00:43:42.44
Well, anyway, that's all you do,
00:43:42.47\00:43:44.06
you just keep
working up the layers.
00:43:44.09\00:43:45.51
And we have some right here
00:43:45.54\00:43:46.94
for you already dished
up that you can look at.
00:43:46.97\00:43:50.71
And I like the type of
glass you chose for that.
00:43:50.74\00:43:53.03
You can use any
type of clear glass
00:43:53.06\00:43:55.39
You can use where you
can see those pretty layers.
00:43:55.42\00:43:57.61
those pretty
layers through the glass.
00:43:57.64\00:43:59.28
Isn't that beautiful?
00:43:59.31\00:44:00.36
And you could
even make smaller ones,
00:44:00.39\00:44:02.56
and if you don't want
quite as big a dessert.
00:44:02.59\00:44:04.19
That's right.
00:44:04.22\00:44:05.25
And so that's
all you have to do.
00:44:05.28\00:44:07.09
So what do we have next?
00:44:07.12\00:44:08.59
Oh, we have my
little granny clakes.
00:44:08.62\00:44:12.15
I have my mouth full of pumpkin.
00:44:12.18\00:44:16.68
Okay, her little granny cake.
00:44:16.71\00:44:18.84
How about, Brenda,
if you read that recipe?
00:44:18.87\00:44:21.18
I'm gonna finish my
pumpkin. Okay, I'll be happy to.
00:44:21.21\00:44:23.05
All right, for her lil granny
cakes you're gonna need...
00:44:23.08\00:44:26.26
For the
frosting you will need...
00:44:58.76\00:45:00.12
Or pecans depending
on where you are from.
00:45:26.35\00:45:30.71
Potato, potato.
00:45:30.74\00:45:32.02
I have a question for you.
00:45:32.05\00:45:33.31
Does anyone know why I
called these lil granny cakes?
00:45:33.34\00:45:38.79
I actually don't know.
'Cause they're so pretty.
00:45:40.92\00:45:42.68
And they're so cute,
and we love our grandma?
00:45:42.71\00:45:45.08
'Cause grandma
loves oatmeal. Yes.
00:45:45.11\00:45:48.64
And I have oat meal in them.
00:45:48.67\00:45:52.84
Okay.
00:45:52.87\00:45:53.90
I'm a grandma
and I love oatmeal.
00:45:53.93\00:45:55.54
And you're a grandma
and you love oatmeal.
00:45:55.57\00:45:58.62
And I'm way too
young. I'm so much younger.
00:45:58.65\00:46:01.79
Oh, yeah.
00:46:01.82\00:46:02.85
She's only two
years younger than me.
00:46:02.88\00:46:08.21
Linda's older
than me and then Cinda,
00:46:08.24\00:46:10.35
so we're all two years apart.
00:46:10.38\00:46:12.23
Yes, way younger.
00:46:12.26\00:46:15.20
Okay, to start out
you're gonna take your oatmeal.
00:46:15.23\00:46:17.82
Now this is boiling hot water,
00:46:17.85\00:46:20.14
we just took this
out of the microwave.
00:46:20.17\00:46:22.72
So you're gonna put
00:46:22.75\00:46:24.04
your boiling hot
water into the oatmeal.
00:46:24.07\00:46:26.33
Ooh, I can see the steam.
And you're gonna let that sit.
00:46:26.36\00:46:29.47
And now, sisters,
00:46:29.50\00:46:31.48
all the other
ingredients-- not this.
00:46:31.51\00:46:34.10
This is gonna be our frosting,
00:46:34.13\00:46:35.57
but all of this
can go in our bowl.
00:46:35.60\00:46:37.74
It doesn't matter--
00:46:37.77\00:46:38.93
What kind of
coconut milk did you use?
00:46:38.96\00:46:40.73
I used the light coconut milk.
00:46:40.76\00:46:42.85
I know.
00:46:42.88\00:46:43.91
But out of a can or out of
a-- It's canned coconut milk.
00:46:43.94\00:46:46.56
Okay. And I used the light.
00:46:46.59\00:46:48.38
Okay. So--
00:46:48.41\00:46:49.88
And if-- a lot of
times you get separation
00:46:49.91\00:46:52.18
that kind of they'll have
a lot of the coconut itself
00:46:52.21\00:46:55.17
will have heavier,
00:46:55.20\00:46:56.70
creamier part goes to the bottom
00:46:56.73\00:46:57.94
and then there
is the watery part.
00:46:57.97\00:47:00.29
Do they use it all?
I would shake the can.
00:47:00.32\00:47:01.91
Just shake the can and use it.
00:47:01.94\00:47:03.12
Yes. Okay, now just
put in all your spices.
00:47:03.15\00:47:08.50
Now when you're
pouring in these spices
00:47:10.14\00:47:13.31
I want you to just kind of--
00:47:13.34\00:47:14.96
No! Oh.
00:47:14.99\00:47:17.60
What? What did I
do? What did I do?
00:47:17.63\00:47:18.93
Nothing, it was just fun.
00:47:18.96\00:47:21.96
I thought you
said put it all in.
00:47:23.61\00:47:25.01
Okay.
00:47:25.04\00:47:26.07
I'd have ruined
her dish. Oh, boy.
00:47:26.10\00:47:28.21
This is really important.
00:47:28.24\00:47:30.25
We each have one
but take this one,
00:47:30.28\00:47:32.44
let me show you.
00:47:32.47\00:47:33.57
This is very,
very important. Okay.
00:47:33.60\00:47:35.94
You got one? Yeah.
00:47:35.97\00:47:37.90
It will-- Food fight.
00:47:37.93\00:47:39.99
This will ruin your dish if
you don't do this just right.
00:47:40.02\00:47:42.91
By the way we get in
trouble for food fights.
00:47:42.94\00:47:44.56
Yeah, it's just a real
flick of the wrist, okay?
00:47:44.59\00:47:47.99
Oh.
00:47:48.02\00:47:49.11
And it's how you
flick that determines
00:47:49.14\00:47:52.28
the texture of my batter.
00:47:52.31\00:47:53.83
Oh, yeah, right.
00:47:53.86\00:47:54.92
So let's see if you
can flick just right.
00:47:54.95\00:47:57.14
Okay, let's see, here we go.
00:47:57.17\00:47:59.18
Oh, I don't know.
00:47:59.21\00:48:00.38
They may have
ruined my batter, folks.
00:48:00.41\00:48:03.52
I don't think so.
00:48:06.48\00:48:07.66
I don't think you have to
worry about the fluff at all.
00:48:07.69\00:48:09.61
I think you're gonna
be all set with that.
00:48:09.64\00:48:11.90
Okay, there you go.
00:48:13.25\00:48:14.61
For that remark
guess what I get to do.
00:48:14.64\00:48:16.65
I get the privilege--
00:48:16.68\00:48:17.71
You just get
it, mix all that up.
00:48:17.74\00:48:20.16
Now see how our oatmeal
00:48:20.19\00:48:23.39
has instantly
absorbed all the water.
00:48:23.42\00:48:25.97
That is cool. Look at that.
00:48:26.00\00:48:27.03
Wow.
00:48:27.06\00:48:28.09
That's just
absorbed all the water,
00:48:28.12\00:48:29.69
and it's got a
little bit more to absorb.
00:48:29.72\00:48:33.25
How smooth do you
want? Oh, just keep going.
00:48:33.28\00:48:35.99
All right. Isn't this fun?
00:48:36.02\00:48:38.04
Okay, how much muscle
do I have to put in here?
00:48:39.24\00:48:41.86
I mean, you
know, I'm not noticed,
00:48:41.89\00:48:43.95
but I have
plenty for the family.
00:48:43.98\00:48:45.49
I know, that's why I'm doing it.
00:48:45.52\00:48:47.90
Go, Brenda, go! All right, okay.
00:48:47.93\00:48:50.41
Go, Brenda, go!
00:48:50.44\00:48:52.26
How much-- Keep
going, keep going.
00:48:54.92\00:48:56.34
And it helps if
you jump a little bit.
00:48:56.37\00:48:59.11
Yeah, like this.
00:48:59.15\00:49:00.24
I can see they did take
their vitamins this morning.
00:49:04.45\00:49:06.64
She was doing it.
00:49:06.67\00:49:09.13
All right, you
shouldn't pull my leg.
00:49:09.16\00:49:11.40
Add the oatmeal now.
Incorporate that into it.
00:49:11.43\00:49:14.57
Okay.
00:49:14.60\00:49:16.00
Okay, grandma, jump.
00:49:16.03\00:49:17.43
No.
00:49:17.46\00:49:20.57
Okay, what about--
what are we doing here?
00:49:20.60\00:49:21.74
I got her twice.
what are we doing here?
00:49:21.77\00:49:24.88
Or do we have this pan for?
00:49:24.91\00:49:27.63
Okay, let's--
00:49:27.66\00:49:29.52
First of all let me
tell them how to get this in.
00:49:29.55\00:49:32.04
Now this batter is a
little bit more runny
00:49:32.07\00:49:34.51
than what I
usually have. That's okay?
00:49:34.54\00:49:36.55
Yes, that's just fine. Okay.
00:49:36.58\00:49:38.38
You might want to--
00:49:38.41\00:49:40.13
I asked it 'cause I
thought somebody out there
00:49:40.16\00:49:41.74
is gonna ask the question
when they make the recipe.
00:49:41.77\00:49:44.00
Yeah, it's just fine.
00:49:44.03\00:49:45.12
You might want to
taste a little bit
00:49:45.15\00:49:46.57
and see if it tastes right.
00:49:46.60\00:49:47.65
Do I need to spray
it? Yeah, tastes good.
00:49:47.68\00:49:50.64
She's gonna spray that for you.
00:49:50.67\00:49:52.52
Okay, spray the pan.
00:49:52.55\00:49:53.60
I made an executive
decision right there.
00:49:53.63\00:49:55.57
I told her to spray the pan.
00:49:55.60\00:49:57.05
Oh, no. Too late.
00:49:57.08\00:50:00.13
Oh, you never know.
00:50:03.78\00:50:05.11
Okay, so you're
gonna spray the pan.
00:50:05.14\00:50:07.40
And now you're gonna fill these
00:50:07.43\00:50:09.76
about three
fourths of the way full.
00:50:09.79\00:50:12.15
These don't raise much
so you can fill them through
00:50:12.18\00:50:15.33
good three fourths of the
way, if not just under that.
00:50:15.36\00:50:19.30
A little more. Okay.
00:50:19.33\00:50:21.53
Okay, keep doing that.
00:50:21.56\00:50:23.04
And, Linda, you can
put all of this into the--
00:50:23.07\00:50:27.91
for the frosting.
00:50:27.94\00:50:29.17
And I'm gonna take
this fork from you, Brenda.
00:50:29.20\00:50:32.35
Now while she is putting--
00:50:32.38\00:50:34.34
you put all your
margarine, your brown sugar,
00:50:34.37\00:50:37.32
your vanilla and
then turn this on.
00:50:37.35\00:50:39.34
Even this? Nope.
00:50:39.37\00:50:40.40
This is cornstarch, so
you're gonna want to make sure,
00:50:40.43\00:50:43.76
you mix your
cornstarch into your cold water.
00:50:43.79\00:50:48.19
I know it sounds redundant
00:50:48.23\00:50:50.63
because we say this every time
00:50:50.66\00:50:52.52
that you do not want to put
cornstarch into a hot liquid.
00:50:52.55\00:50:57.78
But-- You really
can't say that often enough.
00:50:57.81\00:50:59.54
You really can't. Yeah.
00:50:59.57\00:51:00.86
And you'll thank us
for the constant reminder.
00:51:00.89\00:51:04.72
You do it one time--
I turned the fire on.
00:51:04.75\00:51:06.49
Yes, now you want your
margarine to melt and--
00:51:06.52\00:51:09.79
Well, if you have
an emergent blending
00:51:09.82\00:51:12.78
it might be able
get rid of the lumps.
00:51:12.81\00:51:14.29
Right.
00:51:14.32\00:51:15.64
So you'll want
your margarine to melt.
00:51:15.67\00:51:18.07
Now, and then when
your margarine melts
00:51:18.10\00:51:21.09
and that starts to bubble,
00:51:21.12\00:51:23.27
then you will add your slurry,
00:51:23.30\00:51:26.74
which is your cornstarch
and your water mixture.
00:51:26.77\00:51:29.37
And then you will stir
that until it thickens,
00:51:29.40\00:51:32.31
which is almost immediately.
00:51:32.34\00:51:34.15
And when it
thickens then you add
00:51:34.18\00:51:36.63
your coconut and your pecans.
00:51:36.66\00:51:39.48
And I-- let me
reach across you, sis.
00:51:39.51\00:51:41.71
I've already made
some ahead of time
00:51:41.74\00:51:43.47
for the sake of time.
00:51:43.50\00:51:44.54
Oh, wow. So you can see.
00:51:44.57\00:51:45.60
Look at that.
00:51:45.63\00:51:47.26
And now for these
you're gonna bake these
00:51:47.29\00:51:49.76
at 350 degrees
for about 20 minutes.
00:51:49.79\00:51:54.16
But you want to stick a knife
in the center and it's okay.
00:51:54.19\00:51:57.07
You don't have to
worry about, you know,
00:51:57.10\00:51:58.70
the hole in your little cake
00:51:58.73\00:52:02.11
because you're gonna
cover it with this frosting.
00:52:02.14\00:52:04.16
Yeah. But the knife
needs to come out clean.
00:52:04.19\00:52:06.55
All right.
00:52:06.58\00:52:07.61
Then you take
them from the oven,
00:52:07.64\00:52:08.98
leave them sit in the
pan for 5 minutes to cool
00:52:09.01\00:52:12.06
and then put them on a
cooling rack and frost them.
00:52:12.09\00:52:14.72
And here's, I've already
plated them and here it is.
00:52:14.75\00:52:18.85
Right-- Oh, no!
00:52:18.88\00:52:20.86
She's the taster.
00:52:20.89\00:52:22.85
While she's
tasting that, my sisters
00:52:22.88\00:52:25.07
and I have six
cookbooks out right now.
00:52:25.10\00:52:27.74

00:52:27.77\00:52:29.69
