Here is a picture of the Almond Meal Bread fresh out of the oven. I haven't tasted it yet; but, I have read that it resembles corn bread in taste and texture. I'll let you know more about that when I sample it.
Here is a picture of the modified Chocolate No-Bake Cookies. They taste pretty good; but, I have had another variation (with refined sugar) that had some things I liked that I will have to try next time around.My mom's original recipe is as follows:
1/2 C milk
2 C sugar
1/2 stick butter
2/3 C chunky peanut putter
Mix together in large sauce pan and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and add:
1 tsp Vanilla
3 C Oatmeal (Mom called for quick cook oats; but, I have used regular with great success)
5 Tbsp cocoa
Stir all ingredients and drop by spoon fulls on wax paper to cool -- no need to refrigerate.
A variation I like had the following ingredient differences (all ingredients are the same save for the following): 1 stick of butter, 1 C of peanut butter, 1 Tbsp Vanilla, 4 Tbsp Cocoa and about 1-2 cups more of oats (I had to add a bit to keep it from being like soup).
My Refined Sugar Free Variation uses my Mom's original recipe but changes up the sugars...there is still 2 cups of sugar but it is broken up as 1 cup of Agave nectar and 1 cup Coconut Sugar. After removed from the heat I also added 20 drops of Vanilla Liquid Stevia.
These are good; but, I liked the taste of the greater abundance of peanut butter and more vanilla in the variation listed above. When I finish this batch I will use those variations along with the different sugars to see how that results.
If you have any suggestions please let me know!
