COUNTRY RECIPES

Today’s recipes are from the 11th Annual Pillsbury Bake-off Cookbook. I believe the bake-off was held in 1959. I see I paid 25 cents for the cookbook. Can you imagine?

They may take a bit of time to make, but they are well worth it. You will find that if they are cut small, they will serve a lot of people because they are so dense.
