Let stand at room temperature until set. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

How sweet of you....this is my special super easy christmas appetizer recipe.

Make meatballs with ground beef and fry them up in the pan till they are brown. Get a jar of currant jelly put in with the meatballs, then take a tsp of prepared yellow mustard and mix in the sauce, and simmer till hot. Sounds funny but it tastes so good. You can put toothpicks in them and save the sauce for dipping. ITS GOOD.....

Christmas Cake


1 box yellow cake mix
red gelatin, your favorite flavor
green gelatin, your favorite flavor
whipped creamp
marachino cherries

Mix and bake cake according to cake mix directions. Let cake cool. With the end of a wooden spoon, make shallow holes in the cake (do not poke all the way to the bottom of the pan). In two separate bowls, mix red gelatin and green gelatin according to box directions. Then use a ladel or large spoon to pour red and green gelatin over cake and into holes. The red and green gelatin should make a swirl. Refrigerate for several hours then top with whipped cream and cherries.

Christmas Pie


2 cups crushed Oreo cookies
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup green creme de menthe
1 7-ounce jar of marshmallow creme
2 cups whipping cream
maraschino cherries

Mix together cookie crumbs melted butter. Press crumbs to bottom and sides of a 9 inch pie pan. Chill for several hours.

Mix together marshmallow creme and creme de menthe until well blended. Fold in the whipping cream. Pour into pie pan over cookie crust. Top with maraschino cherries.

I think a nice breakfast would be the best thing to make on Christmas morning for her. Make some nice scrambled eggs and bacon and buttered toast since the odds are she is going to be making the Christmas dinner...or buy a package of pancake mix and just follow the instructions on the box. You are so sweet to do that for your mom...I would love that if my kids did that for me.

Christmas Ice cream pie

prepared pie crust - such as oreo cookie crust
half gallon of peppermint ice cream
magic shell chocolate
candy cane - crushed into small bits

Use a prepared pie crust - such as keebler oreo cookie crust
Warm up peppermint ice cream until it is soft enough to be scooped out. Spoon out, and spread into the pie crust. Sprinkle the candy cane on top and drizzle the magic shell over the top. Put back in the freezer to get hard.

When you are ready to serve - let it warm up for about 10 or 15 minutes before trying to cut.

Your Mother, as all of us Mothers, will be VERY busy Christmas morning- making sure pictures are taken, ribbon is saved, coffee and chocolate are poured, and that one present she left in the drawer gets remembered and slipped in at just the right moment. So- You tell her Christmas Eve that you have breakfast handled. Wow- Lets just call you Santa. ( and start on christmas eve- this has to rest overnight...)

Christmas Morning Casserole

The next morning, bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes uncovered.. Slice into squares.

Avocado Rolled Chicken with Spinach Recipe

Although this may initially look and sound like a dish of some complexity, please believe me that it is anything but. It is actually very simple and quick to prepare.

Per person, you will require:

1 skinned chicken breast fillet
1 small avocado (stoned and peeled - see end of recipe for simple instructions)
1 clove of garlic (crushed)
1 small red chilli pepper (deseeded and very finely chopped)
Handful of fresh spinach
4 or 5 walnuts (roughly chopped or crushed)
Salt/freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil

Put the oven on to preheat to 200 degrees centigrade or equivalent. Mash the avocado in a bowl with a fork and add the garlic and chilli pepper. Season and mix well. Lay the chicken fillet smooth side down on a chopping board and either with a meat tenderising mallet or a rolling pin, gently bash it to a thickness of about 1/4 inch (1/2cm.) Care is required here or the tender flesh will come apart - remember it is not a beef steak! Spread the avocado mix evenly over the flattened chicken and carefully roll it in to a tube. Lightly sprinkle some olive oil over the base of a casserole dish and place the chicken inside. Cook for 25 minutes.

Toss the spinach leaves with the crushed walnuts and lay on a serving plate. Remove the chicken from the oven, transfer it to a chopping board and after allowing it to rest for a few minutes, slice and arrange over the salad.

Avocados

The process of removing the stone from and peeling an avocado is very simple if tackled correctly. Sit the broad bottom of the avocado on a flat surface and hold it steady with one hand. A sharp knife should then be used to cut down through the top centre until you feel it hit the stone. Turn the fruit slowly away from you so that the knife effectively traces a pattern around the entire circumference. The two halves should then be twisted gently in opposite directions and should come apart quite easily, the stone still embedded in one of them. Tap the sharp blade of the knife once, gently but firmly, on the stone. The knife should cut in to the stone and a gentle twist should remove it. The two halves can now be peeled quite easily by hand.
