Texas Flour Tortillas (adapted from The Border Cookbook by Cheryl Alters Jamison and Bill Jamison) (and stolen by Amy from the website: http://homesicktexan.blogspot.com/2007/03/and-end-to-my-quest-flour-tortillas.html)
Two cups of all-purpose flour (can make them whole wheat by substituting one cup of whole-wheat flour for white flour)
1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of vegetable oil
3/4 cups of warm milk
Method:
Mix together the flour, baking powder, salt and oil.
Slowly add the warm milk.
Stir until a loose, sticky ball is formed.
Knead for two minutes on a floured surface. Dough should be firm and soft.
Place dough in a bowl and cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap for 20 minutes.
After the dough has rested, break off eight sections, roll them into balls in your hands, place on a plate (make sure they aren’t touching) and then cover balls with damp cloth or plastic wrap for 10 minutes. (It’s very important to let the dough rest, otherwise it will be like elastic and won’t roll out to a proper thickness and shape.)
After dough has rested, one at a time place a dough ball on a floured surface, pat it out into a four-inch circle, and then roll with a rolling pin from the center until it’s thin and about eight inches in diameter. (If you roll out pie crusts you’ll have no problem with this.) Don’t over work the dough, or it’ll be stiff. Keep rolled-out tortillas covered until ready to cook.
In a dry iron skillet or comal heated on high, cook the tortilla about thirty seconds on each side. It should start to puff a bit when it’s done.
Keep cooked tortillas covered wrapped in a napkin until ready to eat.
Can be reheated in a dry iron skillet, over your gas-burner flame or in the oven wrapped in foil.
While you probably won’t have any leftovers, you can store in the fridge tightly wrapped in foil or plastic for a day or so.
Makes eight tortillas.

Buttermilk Scones
Buttermilk Scones
3 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup currants (optional)
1 tablespoon heavy cream, for brushing
Transfer dough to a floured board and divide into 2 parts. Roll each to 3/4 inch thick rounds. Cut each round into 8 wedges and place slightly separated on a greased baking sheet. Brush the tops with the cream, and bake for 15 minutes, or until lightly browned. Serve warm, split in half with butter and marmalade.
Amy's Mods:
3 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup currants (optional)
1 tablespoon heavy cream, for brushing
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl. Add butter and mix with your fingertips to a coarse meal. Add buttermilk and mix just until combined. Add currants, if desired.

Amy's Mods:
- I use powdered buttermilk since I don't usually have regular on hand-it stores in the fridge longer. I add teh powdered milk to the dry ingredients and then just use water for the part where you add the buttermilk. They are great every time.
- Never use the currants-the recipe is great just as a plain scone
- Add in a scoop of OJ and use mini chocolate chips for Orange Chocolate Chip Scones-may also want to add a dash more flour.
- Add a smidge more water and add fresh blueberries-drop onto pans instead of forming.
- Use shredded cheddar, minced ham and garlic or fresh basil-omit sugar of course. You can do any number of savory scones just by omitting the sugar.

Monster Cookies
Monster Cookies
1 cube butter/margarine softened
12 oz peanut smooth, or a smidge more if crunchy
1 C granulated sugar
1 1/4 C brown sugar
1/2 t vanilla (I never remember to add this, and they are always fine)
1/2 t salt-I just eyeball a healthy dash
4 1/2 C Old Fashioned oats (the original recipe calls for quick cooking, but I prefer Old Fashioned)
12 oz chocolate chips
Mix together the butter, PB, sugars, vanilla. Add in eggs one at a time till combined. Stir in the oats, baking soda and salt. Add chips, bake. 350 degrees for about 12 minutes.
I don't use the mixer on this because it is a large mix and if you soften your butter it is easy to do by hand. Its hard to kill these-but don't be tempted to overbake. I have added PB chips or Reeses Pieces, as well as used about 16 ounces of crunchy PB instead of creamy. The original recipe is by Paula Dean from www.foodnetwork.com, but I have made enough mods to call it my own mostly :D

1 8 oz can tomato sauce
1/4 C uncooked rice
1 small crushed bayleaf
1/2 t thyme

4 t salt
1/4 t pepper
5 C water
Brown the hamburger, drain, combine with onions, potatoes, celery, carrots, cabbage. Cook until veggies are a little soft. Add rice, spices and water. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for one hour.
Note: We Riopelle girls call this soup BO Soup-Robin says your clothes smell like BO after making this soup.
This recipe would be good with brown rice and turkey burger by the way.
Kathy Riopelle
Additional Note 09/21/2008:
I made this soup today and omitted the cabbage. I used ground turkey, added extra potato and onion, and threw in half a can of lima beans.
Next time I will substitute the rice for pasta shells and throw in a can of beans and call it minestrone. :D

1 1/2 C White Karo Syrup
1/4 C Water
1 ½ C Sugar
2T Butter
2C Spanish Peanuts
Then mix together 1t baking soda 2t water and 1 t vanilla
Heat peanut butter in double broiler. Combine sugar, syrup and ¼ cup of water. Cook to 275 degrees. Lower heat, add butter stirring until melted. Cook to 300 degrees. Add peanuts, remove from hear. Add soda mixture. Mix well, and then add peanut butter. Mix well again.
Pour at once on a well buttered shiny cookie sheet or marble slab. Spread as thin as possible. Cool. Break into pieces. Quick cooling is the secret. When I used cookie sheets I wet a bath towel and put it in the freezer and set pans on the frozen towel. I also wadded up foil, when buttered on the bottom it works well to spread the peanut brittle.
