Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

After Dinner Mint Cookies


cookies

10 oz ghirardelli mint chocolate wafers
3/4 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cup unsifted flour
3/4 cup finely chopped walnuts

DIRECTIONS: Melt 5 oz of the Mint Wafers in a double boiler, stirring constantly or microwave on medium for about 3 minutes. Set aside. Cream butter with sugar, egg and salt. Mix in melted chocolate. Gradually add flour. Chill dough at least 1 hour. Shape dough into balls, using 1 level Tbsp for each cookie. Roll balls into nuts. Place on greased baking sheets. Flatten slightly with the palm of hand. Bake at 350-F for only 8 minutes. Remove from oven and place Mint Wafer on top of each cookie, pressing slightly. Continue baking 3 5 minutes longer or until cookie is firm. Source: Recipes from Ghirardelli Chocolate Company of San Francisco From: Sallie Austin
