September. , 2019

This month I am using Martha Pullen's Southern Family Cookbook

So far I have a slight problem with this cookbook.  It does not tell you how many servings each recipe is for.   A new cook would have a lot of trouble using it.

All recipes were easy to follow and not expensive to make.

These did not have a nice lemon flavor.  I would prefer to use real lemon juice and not lemon extract.

Ruby said she would use a deep narrow bowl to fold in the chocolate in order to stop the chocolate from solidifying.  Use a whisk instead of a spatula to fold in the chocolate.
