INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Butter should be brought to room temperature beore using.  You can put
butter in the microwave for approx. 20 seconds to soften (remember,
because the microwave wattages vary, the time given is approximate)
Melt chocolate in the top of a double boiler or in your microwave (in
microwave start with approx. 30 seconds, and stir chocolate). Care
must be taken that chocolate doesnt burn. Preheat oven or appox. 15
minutes before using. Check cookies about 2/3 of the way through
baking. If cookies are not browning evenly, rotate cookie sheet. When
measuring flour, spoon it loosely into the measuring cup and level it
with the straight edge o a knife or spatula. When sifting lour, if  the
recipe calls for "X cups sifted flour," sift it beore measuring.  If
recipe calls or "X cups flour, sifted," sift after measuring.  Store
cookes in airtight containers. Cookies will stay fresh for  about a
week stored in this fashon. Never store crisp cookes with  soft ones,
or the crisp ones will turn soft. When packaging cookies  for travel
pick cookies without sharp points, as the travel will  probably break
the points. When packaging fragile cookies for travel  place them back
to back and wrap in waxed paper or place in sandwich  baggies. To get
uniform cookie size and shape use a spring-handled  ice-cream scoop.
(These come in various sized and are referred to by  number -- which is
the number o scoops per quart of ice cream. If  your recipe calls for
dough by the rounded teaspoonful use a number  70 scoop. Only regular
margarine or butter should be used in recipes  calling for margarine or
butter. May diet margarines, spreads, and  soft margarines in tubs
contain higher percentages of water or have  had air whipped into them.
Using these products may result in a less  desirable cookie. When
packaging cookies use popped popcorn to fill  the spaces for additional
protection. Not only is it light-weight it  is ecologically sound. IF
the idea of popping corn does not appeal to  you, your local furniture
store, computer warehouse, or delivery  outpost may have the styrofoam
peanuts for either no or a minimal  cost. Best choices for packing and
shipping -- unfrosted crispy or  chewy bars -- chewy or fudgy brownies
-- drop cookies -- firm cut-out  cookies Poor choices for packing and
shipping -- cake-like brownies  or bars ~- soft cookies -- cookies or
bars with frosting -- cookies  or bars with ingredients that might
spoil or melt in warm weather  LAST BUT NOT LEAST -- LABEL BOX
PERISHABLE to encourage speedy and  careful handling.  File

A Message from our Provider:

“Let us thank God heartily as often as we pray that we have His Spirit in us to teach us to pray. Thanksgiving will draw our hearts out to God and keep us engaged with Him; it will take our attention from ourselves and give the Spirit room in our hearts. #Andrew Murray”
