Recipies

These recipes are from a very old, falling apart church cookbook from Downeast Maine. These cookies taste like my childhood, and I cannot stay out of them! Bake 9 to 10 minutes better under than over.

This bread is delicious and makes 2 loaves.

       Cheeseburger Chowder

I do not have a picture of this sorry and I make this by the seat of my pants lol. But here goes....

I lb of hamburger and 1 small onion chopped cook until no more pink.  

 Add beef broth to cover hamburger and onion by an inch or two.

add one pk of onion soup mix and a couple of dashes of Worchester sauce. 

I then add a bit of instant potato to thicken. (Try a tablespoon at a time) If you have left over mashed potato that works also.  

 Now I add whatever cheese I have grated or chopped fine. At least 1to11/2 cups.  I also add about 2 oz of cream cheese in to melt. Now I add about a 1/2 to 1 cup of cream or milk and if needs to be thickened I add a heaping tsp of cornstarch to the cream before adding it. 

My husband likes it thick so if you prefer thinner then you do not need to add the cornstarch. 

I wait until the end to add any salt or pepper after tasting. 

Truly you cannot fail at this, and it is a great way to use up cheese and maybe left over potatoes.
