HOLIDAY OATMEAL COOKIE MIX IN A JAR!

Holiday Oatmeal Cookie Mix
I absolutely LOVE the idea of gifting cookies in a jar!!! Hey, this could be a last minute Christmas Gift!!!
Of course this can be made into almost any cookie recipe!
Ingredients: 
  • For the mix
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (GF flour mix)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (Kosher salt)
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup rolled oats (GF oats)
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
  • I usually add raisins in addition to the crasins
  • To prepare
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (10 tablespoons), melted (Smart Balance) 
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

Method: 
For the mix:
Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Spoon into a 1-quart jar. Add the remaining mix ingredients in layers, pressing down lightly on each before adding the next. Seal jar.


To prepare:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Pour cookie mix into a large bowl and stir in egg and melted butter. Drop cookie dough onto ungreased baking sheets by rounded tablespoons, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.Bake until edges are just golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheets for 5 minutes and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By  Gail Greenberg   &   Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral  part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have  always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra  magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately  even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow  me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I  will switch some things  around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streus...

Johnny Mango's Shrimp Fried Rice with Fiery Lime Sauce

Backstory: My friend introduced me to this AMAZING fried rice about 6yrs ago. She asked did I want "fried rice" (I'm thinking "traditional" fried rice) OH NO! I tasted this and my taste buds went crazy!!! I had her bring it as often as I could. Unfortunately I have never been to Johnny Mango (near Downtown Cleveland) myself. I have been craving this for about 6yrs and I am SOOOOO HAPPY that there is a recipe! I do still want to go to   Johnny Mango World Cafe & Bar but until then I will try to recreate it myself. If you ever visit Cleveland OH I suggest checking this out!  INGREDIENTS For the rice 2 cups  jasmine rice (I'd probably use white and brown) 2 3/4 cups  water (filtered clean water) 1 tablespoon  vegetable oil (Olive oil) 1 teaspoon  salt (kosher salt) 2  eggs, beaten 1 teaspoon garlic, minced 6 ounces  shrimp (large 31-40 count) 1/3 cup  scallions, sliced 1 cup  English cucumber, diced (organic) 1 ...
