Took First Place at the DEN Business Technology - Fire and Ice event held October 31, 2019. Submitted by: "Cecilia Trujillo"Norwegian Krumkake with Whipped Cream
My grandma Carla would make these every Christmas. It made the holidays a special time. She has been gone for many years now, and I miss her very much. We have her Krumkake iron. Similar recipes can be found online for different fillings. This one is similar to recipes you could find from the Decorah, Iowa Nordic Festival that happens every year in July. Submitted by: "Andrea Christensen"Familia Montoya Bizcochitos
Bizcochitos are New Mexico’s official state cookie. They have simple yet rich flavors – cinnamon, sugar and anise – that melt in your mouth. These cookies are essential part of the Holidays. I have the most vivid memories of driving with my mom to mis abuelos (my grandparents) house and walking in the front door and being bathed in the glorious smell of these cookies. For me, these bizcochitos are not only a representation of the holidays but of my culture and heritage. Simply stated, they represent home! Submitted by: "Roberto Montoya"Cherry Cranberry Compote
I make this every Thanksgiving. Friends who try it demand it the following year. Where most cranberry relishes are tart, this provides a sweet support to the traditional bird. Compote keeps refrigerated and tightly covered for about two weeks. Submitted by: "Tea Schook"Grandma Lucy's Biscochito (Pan Dulce) Cookies
Biscochitos or bizcochitos are a crisp lard- or butter-based cookie, flavored with cinnamon and anise (if desired). The name is a Spanish diminutive form of bizcocho. The dough is rolled and traditionally cut into the shape of stars and crescent moons. The cookie was developed by residents of New Mexico over the centuries from the first Spanish colonists of what was then known as Santa Fe de Nuevo México. The recipe for making the cookie has been greatly influenced not only by local and indigenous customs but also by recipes brought to New Mexico by immigrants from other Hispanic countries. Biscochitos are served during special celebrations, such as wedding receptions, baptisms, and religious holidays (especially during the Christmas season). It is commonly served along with hot chocolate. The cookie is seldom known outside the boundaries of the original Spanish province, although Spanish speakers may recognize the association with bizcocho, from the name, and may have some idea of what they must be, even if they have not encountered them before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bizcochito Submitted by: "Adrianne Muniz-Roman"Kathy Henderson’s Pineapple Bread Pudding
This recipe can easily be doubled and made in a bigger pan. Goes great with ham. This recipe became such a huge hit that my mother was jokingly told she could not attend family dinners unless she brought this dish with her! Submitted by: "Wendy Buehler"Doris Henderson's Chocolate Cake
This recipe can easily be doubled and made in a bigger pan and is an especially moist and heavy cake. (Don't forget to add a little extra water if you're baking at high altitude.) This was my paternal Grandmother's recipe, and it became my Mom's specialty. It was my birthday cake through my entire childhood, and I usually picked blue frosting with green sprinkles. Submitted by: "Wendy Buehler"Red Chile Sauce
Family recipe passed down from several generations. Fun and easy to prepare and enjoy any time of the year and with any meal! Submitted by: "Andrea Albo"Green Chicken Enchilada Casserole
Green Chili Shredded Chicken Enchilada Casserole Submitted by: "Melissa Leichtle"PRETZEL TURTLES
PRETZELS WITH ROLO'S MAKE A SWEET WITH SALTY TREAT. CAN MAKE AS MANY AS YOU WANT. Submitted by: "LIZA ARMSTRONG"Burnt Cream
A rich and creamy custard dessert with a caramelized shell that is sure to please everyone's taste buds! Although relatively easy to prepare, it must be carefully executed so that the custard does not overcook and turn into scrambled eggs! Submitted by: "Alan Harper"Thank you for your interest in TasteofDEN's cookbook and for helping support the BakeSpace community of independent cookbook authors!
Here’s some quick information regarding how our cookbook platform works, along with a few tips for making the most of cookbooks you add to your library.
What is the Cookbook Café Platform?
Cookbook Café is our one-of-a-kind cookbook publisher, marketplace and reader. It empowers everyone to create, market and distribute a cookbook as both a web-based eBook and an iPad app. It also makes it incredibly easy for home cooks to discover and use amazing grassroots cookbooks they won't find anywhere else. Since 2012, we've published thousands of cookbooks authored by home chefs, nonprofit organizations, clubs, brands, etc. Our goal is to democratize cookbook publishing and make it easy to build an online library of amazing grassroots cookbooks.
How do I "download" a cookbook?
You don't need to "download" cookbooks or deal with any files. All of the cookbooks you select (free and paid) using Cookbook Café become available to you automatically on any device (computer, tablet or smartphone) whenever you’re logged-in to your free BakeSpace account.When you see a cookbook you like, simply click the green "Get it Now" button. If you're not logged in to BakeSpace, you'll be asked to login (or join) so the cookbook can be added to your cookbook library. Once in your library, you can access the cookbook anytime, anywhere via BakeSpace.com, as well as our Cookbook Café iPad app.
While you're checking out cookbooks, also take some time to visit other parts of the delicious BakeSpace.com community where you can swap recipes and connect with others who share your passion for food and the culinary lifestyle.
Get ready to enjoy a uniquely smart and social cookbook experience!
Once a cookbook is added to your BakeSpace library, our proprietary recipe indexing technology makes it easy for you to find any specific recipe across all of your cookbooks… so there's no need to remember which cookbook contains that perfect recipe. In addition, you can connect directly with each cookbook author, leave comments/reviews and even ask questions about recipe substitutions, history, etc.
