New Location for the Midland Canner & Sealer

I'd like to thank Sis. Cathy Nelson for 11 years of serving as the keeper of the canner and sealer. She has taught so many of us how to store our food-she's been great!!!

Now that she is having a much deserved rest the canner will be at my house for awhile- Sis. Noall 686-0012. If you need to use either machine please call and schedule a time.

Chewy Brownie Cookies


Sister Penny Brown generously shared the recipe for these super yummy cookies- Thanks Penny!

Chewy Brownie Cookies

2/3 cup Crisco shortening
1 1/2 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
1 Tbsp. water
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (12 oz.)

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place sheets of wax paper on counter top for cooling cookies. Combine Crisco, brown sugar, water and vanilla in large bowl. Beat at medium speed of electric mixer until well blended. Beat eggs into creamed mixture. Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Mix into creamed mixture at low speed just until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded measuring tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheet. Bake one baking sheet at a time at 375 degrees for 7 to 9 minutes, or until cookies are set. DO NOT OVER BAKE. Cookies will appear soft and moist. Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet. Remove cookies to wax paper to cool completely. Yield: about 3 dozen.
