| 607 | for charliebrown123 you'll find that fetish/EdenM has moved the Christmas recipes (along with many of the other TradeMe Cooks recipes) over to her new site where all the current and former TradeMe Cooks recipes will be found once the current TradeMe Cooks site is shutdown - for the Christmas recipes have a look at this link:- http://trademecooks.net.nz/viewforum.php?f=16 and keep in your favourites for future reference this website:- http://trademecooks.net.nz/ - hope that clarifies for you what has and is happening. :-)) 245sam - 2008-08-30 13:27:00 |

| 612 | Is it too early to make xmas pudds yet? accroul - 2008-09-07 10:18:00 |
| 613 | hi accroul! i make mine from aug onwards and frezze them. i double wrap in gladwrap, then put into either a supermarket bag and then pop into the frezzer. they keep very well and even had one that i found at the bottom nearly a year later and it was better than the younger ones!! you can make, hang and store in a cool dark place also. if you are going to do that then make them with booze and start in oct. but don't make them to hang and store if you are not useing booze. i only use gingerale in mine so they all go in the frezer or out for pressies. enjoy! timetable - 2008-09-08 08:43:00 |

| 631 | For Christmas Gift's - Recipe In A Jar: - Make up a jar of the dry ingredients for a recipe, write out the method & the wet ingredients that are needed, onto a nice piece of card, and tie it to the jar to give for Christmas Gifts.. I've made this using a chocolate chip and bran muffin mix.. For this, I measure all the ingredients out into small containers or cups, then place a little of each ingredient into a preserving jar, placing them against the side of the jar, a spoonful or so at a time, alternating the colours and textures, and turning the jar as I go, to form uneven layers. The recipe will fill a preserving jar - or one of the older style barrel-look coffee jars with plastic lids that are available at Opp shops sometimes. You can also use the tall pasta jars, etc.. juliewn - 2008-10-19 21:52:00 |
| 632 | To give as a gift, juliewn - 2008-10-19 21:52:00 |
| 633 | Chocolate Chip Bran Muffin for Recipe-In-A-Jar: Dry Ingredients for the jar: 1 & 1/2 cups flour, 4 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1 & 1/2 cups baking bran flakes, 1/2 cup sultanas, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup coconut, and 1/2 cup chocolate chips. Into one bowl, sieve the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Into separate bowls, one for each ingredient, place each of the other ingredients. Have cinnamon and ground ginger handy - use 2 tsp of each.. 1 tsp at a time, as the colours of these form a nice contrast too.. juliewn - 2008-10-19 21:53:00 |
| 634 | Using a tablespoon, place a spoonful of the flour mix into the jar, so it goes unevenly up the sides of the jar a little. Turn the jar, and do the same with a tablespoon of bran, then a little brown sugar, etc..etc.. alternating the colours and textures. Each ingredient can cover just a small part of the side of the jar, or have some spoonsful cover bigger amounts, so the layers are uneven - like in the coloured sand bottles that are sold in tourist shops.. You will need to press the ingredients down at times with the back of the spoon, to fit them all in - the jar will be packed tightly once the ingredients are all used. When all the ingredients are in the jar, place the lid on and turn tightly. juliewn - 2008-10-19 21:53:00 |
| 635 | On the tag/label, include the instructions: "Chocolate Chip Bran Muffins: Preheat oven to 210°C. Melt 100gms butter, and 2 tablespoons golden syrup. Lightly beat 2 eggs and add 1 cup milk. Place the contents of the jar in a bowl and whisk or stir well to combine. Mix the liquid ingredients together and add to the dry ingredients and stir till the dry ingredients are just damp. Place into muffin pans and bake 15-20 minutes. Makes two trays. Enjoy!" juliewn - 2008-10-19 21:54:00 |

| 650 | adapting the size of Christmas cakes I'm wanting to use Alison holst's Christmas cake recipe, or maybe Julie's big one, to make several smaller cakes, how do I adjust cooking times + temperatures please? I have a non-fan bake oven if that makes a difference). This is the first Christmas in over 10 years I've had an oven to play with, so I'm a bit daunted - but excited. TIA for any suggestions. calista - 2008-11-07 08:38:00 |
