Alot of people have been wanting some recipes, so I decided to add a page, for anyone that would like to have them. Enjoy!
I also want to give you some pointers on using splenda in place of sugar:
you can use about 2 tablespoons plain or vanilla yougart, or 2 tablespoons sour cream, or 2 ounces cream cheese or 2 tablespoons mayo. This helps to replace moisture that real sugar has. It will keep your cakes from becoming hard and keeps them moist. Most any recipe, you can change the sugar to splenda, using the above additives for a wonderful sugar free dessert! If you are making the rolls in this section, do not use splenda. Yeast is not active with sugar substitutes, and you will not get the fluffy rolls. I have not tried this on the rolls, but you might could divide the sugar up and use part sugar and part splenda. That is up to you. Enjoy!
60 Minute Pan Rolls
4 3/4 - 5 3/4 c plus 1 Tablespoon all purpose flour
1/3 c sugar
2 pkgs rapid rise yeast
1 1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup each: milk and water
1/4 c margarine
1 egg, slightly beaten
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast and salt. Heat milk, water and margarine (120-130 degrees). Stir into dry ingredients. Mix in egg and enough flour to make a soft dough. Knead on floured surface 7-8 minutes. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Pinch off equal size balls and place on greased cookie sheet. (For electric oven, turn oven on 200 fir 1 minute then turn off. For gas over, pilot light should be enough heat to make dough rise). Put bread in oven for 20 minutes to rise. Remove, Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake 15 minutes or until light brown. I do an egg wash before baking using 1 egg and about 2 Tablespoons of water and brush the tops of the rolls before baking. Then after they have cooked, I have melted margarine, and brush the tops of the cooked rolls.
