    Hi there HDMac!!! That looks so yummy! Doesn't chicken fat make just the very best chicken-y sauce/gravy ever? I usually save some in the fridge or freezer to use in cooking. I've printed your rec. & will try it soon! Cali

    Categories :

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1/2 stick margarine -- or butter
    1/2 cup sugar
    3/4 cup flour
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    1 1/2 cups oatmeal
    6 ounces chocolate chips
    1/4 cup canola oil
    1/2 cup light brown sugar
    1 egg
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup pecan -- chopped

    Cream margarine, oil and sugars, well. Add egg and vanilla. Sift together flour, salt and soda. Stir in oatmeal, chocolate chips and pecans. Drop by Tablespoon onto a greased cookie sheet about 4 inches apart. Flatten to about 3 inch size. Bake 9 to 10 minutes at 350 or until browned.

    The recipe calls for 1/2 C coconut but I don't like coconut too much so I omit this. If you like you may want to put in.

    Also, I usually double this recipe. Even with just the 2 of us 18 cookies don't last long! hehehe

    About your Hamberg Hawaiin does it take the whole bottle of liquid smoke? I rarely use it except in my BBQ sauce so I'm not that familiar with it. Thanks.

    RE: HDMac Family Favorites
    Hi Cali. You will love the recipe. When we moved from Nebraska to Washington in the early 60s one of our friends sent mom this cookbook from our church we attended when we lived in NE. this was the first recipe that she tried. It became a family favorite instantly!

    Well, my computer is being sluggish and I see that I double posted a recipe because of it.. going off for awhile and will come back and continueing to this post. Really thinking of getting a new computer. ;) Hope you have a great day!

    Jello Cake

    1 box of WHITE cake mix
    1 box (small box) of Jell-o Instant vanilla pudding mix
    1 box (small box) of any flavor Jell-o gelatin mix

    For decoration:
    Fresh strawberries, sliced
    Fresh blueberries (optional)
    Home-made whipped cream or Cool Whip
    1. Mix white cake mix as directed on box.
    2. Before putting in cake pan, add the box of vanilla pudding mix - mix throroughly.
    3. Bake cake as directed.
    4. When cake is halfway done, start the "Quick Set" directions on the Jell-o gelatin box. Put the mixed Jell-o in the fridge until it's not watery, but not solid. Kind of the consistency of oil.
    5. Get cake out of the oven and using a toothpick, poke lots of little holes in the top of the the cake (while still in the pan).
    6. Gently pour the Jell-o over the cake, letting it seep down into the holes.
    7. Put the cake back in the fridge for 2-3 hours, letting the Jell-o set in the cake.
    8. Make up a batch of creamy homemade whipped cream to use for icing.
    9. Slice (thin) the strawberries...

    I like to make an American Flag design, using red jello and using the sliced strawberries for the red stripes, and the blueberries for the blue/white stars.
    (To see a pic of a cake decorated like this go to: www.bettycrocker.com, it's on the main page!)

    This cake turns out REAL moist and real light and fluffy. (it doesn't have hunks of Jello in it, it sets into the cake and makes it yummy!)
