Peanut Butter Fudge Treats

By -
Also from Joy the Baker.

So, I tweaked this recipe a bit and instead of using a layer of peanut butter fudge and a layer of chocolate fudge I combined them together and used my mom's recipe for 2 minute fudge with peanut butter. Either way it turned out tasty and delicious. So delicious that I had to send the dish of treats to Michael's office or I would have been tempted to eat half a pan.

Make one batch of Rice Krispy treats according to pkg directions. Spread into an even layer in a 9x13 pan. Set aside and make fudge.

2 Minute Fudge
1 lb 10X sugar
1 C cocoa (I used Hershey's)
1 stick butter
1 t vanilla
1/2 C milk
1 C peanut butter

Sift sugar and cocoa into a microwave safe bowl. Add all remaining ingredients except milk and peanut butter. Microwave on high for 2 minutes or until butter is melted (our current microwave requires 2.5 min). Pour in milk and stir vigorously. When all igredients are combined and smooth add peanut butter and stir to incorporate. You may find that you need to reheat a bit and/or add an extra splash of milk. It kind of depends on your microwave and the kind of peanut butter you use. Spread fudge over treats and refrigerate. We ate some when they were still a bit warm which was quite yummy. Let's face it, it's hard to wait.

Dayton's Famous Pine Club Salad Dressing

By -
Well, close enough anyway. The Pine Club is probably Dayton's most famous restaraunt--not that Dayton is some culinary mecca or anything. This dressing is traditionally served on an iceberg lettuce salad with grated carrot (boring). It's a shame, really, since the dressing is so good but that's why it's better to eat it at home on the salad of your choice. I like it over a green salad with blue cheese, apples/pears and toasted walnuts/pecans, it's good with pasta salad and it's also good on Isaac's broccoli salad. Serves approximately 8. 1 C vegetable/canola oil 3/4 C cider vinegar 1/3 C white sugar 1 tsp salt 2 tsp garlic powder 1 scant tsp red pepper flakes You can mix this one of two ways: either pour it all into a mason jar, put on the lid and shake the heck out of it or do it up with your stick blender. I recommend using the stick blender. Either way it's delicious. Refrigerate leftovers and note that it keeps pretty well. I think I had my...

Pesto Tortellini Salad

By -
Why don't we just re-name the blog "Recipes Kelly Stole from Isaac's" because I seem to have no other recipes amongst my repertoire. Sheesh. Again, this is not really a recipe, but this salad was, and still is, one of the biggest sellers at the restaurant. As with all of Isaac's recipes, I've drastically reduced the quantity from the original (5 lbs. of tortellini, anyone?) 1.5 lbs tri-colored cheese-filled tortellini (or regular white ones, whatever), cooked according to pkg directions and gently rinsed with cold water 1.5 medium-ish tomatoes, diced 1/2 medium-size red onion, diced 1/3 C black olives (do yourself a favor and get some decent olives) 2/3 C or so pesto (I did a mix of basil pesto and arugula pesto) Dump all ingredients into a bowl and stir until everything is well-coated by the pesto. This is tasty when served immediately but the flavor will continue to develop the longer it sits. As usual, I added 2 handfuls of chopped asparagus but wi...

mango soba update

By gwen -
A small note to those of us trying to eat more veg, as Kelly would say... this soba noodle salad is delicious with slaw replacing some or all of the noodles. I made it with just one little bundle of noodles, a whole bag of broccoli slaw, and half a bag of cabbage/carrot mixture, and it's great -- actually provides a delicious crunch and you don't miss the rest of the noodles. I cooked the chicken in a bit of the marinade, too, and diced it into the salad/noodle/mango mixture for some protein. Yum.
