O'Harbie's Milseog

CRUST

1 cup all-purpose flour

¼ cup brown sugar

½ cup toasted chopped walnuts

1 stick butter

Combine ingredients in small bowl and cut in butter until crumbly.  Press into a greased baking 8x11" or 9x13" baking dish.  Bake in pre-heated 350º oven 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.

Cool on wire rack and prepare filling.

FILLING

1 20 oz. can crushed pineapple, drained (reserve liquid)

1 3 oz. pkg. lime gelatin

1 3 oz. pkg. island pineapple gelatin

1½ cup mini marshmallows

4 medium bananas chopped/sliced

1 cup boiling water

2 cups cold water

Dissolve gelatin in 1 cup boiling water, stir in cold water.  Place in freezer to chill about 30 minutes. Once it's thickened, fold in 1 cup marshmallows, bananas and crushed pineapple.  Spoon over cooled crust.  Refrigerated until firm, about 1 hour. 

TOPPING

½ cup sugar

2 Tbsp. flour

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1 cup Cool Whip

1 cup coconut flakes

Food Coloring (if desired)

Combine reserved pineapple juice in small sauce pan with sugar and flour.  Cook and stir over medium heat until thicken and bubbly.  Reduce heat and cook for 2 minutes.  Remove from heat and pour a small amount of sauce into beaten eggs, stirring the eggs constantly. Add egg mixture to pan and bring to a gently boil, cooking for another 2 minutes.

Let cool completely and then fold in Cool Whip.  Spread over gelatin layer and let chill.  Right before serving top with toasted coconut flakes and tinted mini-marshmallows.

***I was going to save this recipe for the blogging challenge but I got thinking this would make a really cool recipe for EASTER... those little green marshmallow could be tinted pink and orange and look like little EASTER eggs.  So I decided to share it today.  It is St. Patrick's Day after all.

Cheers,

Spirit Feeding • Flesh Starving † Theme Reveal

 

 

This year’s blog came way too fast. As every year I had all intentions of having my posts done and ready to go so that I have more time to visit other people’s blogs. OMG I’m such a procrastinator.

This is my tenth year participating in the A2Z Challenge. It’s so much fun. Hooking up with fellow bloggers is like a family reunion. I started this post on Valentine’s Day. I figured if I started then and wrote one post a day I’d have all of my posts completed by the time Theme Reveal came out and I could just enjoy reading others posts. Well, the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Which brings me to my theme.

Similar to last year I will be in tandem with Crackerberries posting a blurb there and a recipe here.  When I first went to Culinary Arts back in the 80’s I learned to cook for institutions.  BIG! When I got married and had children and we always had a ton of family around so the cooking continued to be BIG!

Like the theme for the A-Z team, this year, Crackeberries Kitchen will be blogging about hope and positivity by starving the flesh. (Learning to cook for two instead of an army!)  

Tall Cool ☺ne and I have walked thousands of miles over the last 18 years.  I’ve shared some posts about it in the past on Joe & Ella’s blog.  We all need that encouragement to be better stewards of our bodies.  We committed to calorie counting again at the beginning of the year.  Unlike anyone else, starting a resolution is easy, sticking to it, not so much. The struggle is real, my friend, the struggle is real.

My friend, Beck asked me if I had any suggestions on how to cook for one or two. I never really gave it a thought until now.  So here's the challenge! Cooking for two and trust me when I say it's going to be a challenge.  Hope you’ll join me in the A2Z blogging challenge.

Cheers,

It's coming

Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh boy!  My favorite time of year is coming up. Stay tuned next week for the awesome THEME REVEAL. Can you wait? I know I can't!

The team's theme for this site for April 2024 will be hope, positivity, and living your best life blogging your best blog. Victorious Blogging.

I kind of have my theme mapped out, but I still have a little tweaking to do.

Who's with me for the challenge?   Who's with me to just follow along with my posts?  I really hope you'll play along.  You won't be disappointed.  Money back guaranteed!☺

Cheers,
