BROWN SUGAR PIE

This pie is almost like a pecan pie but you do not put any pecans in it.

3 Cups Brown Sugar
11/2 Tablespoons Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1/2 Cup Marg. Blue Bonnet, melted and slightly cooled
3 Eggs, beten well
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
1 Cup Milk
3 eggs, beaten well
1 Deep Dish Pie Crust or 2 Regular ones

Bake the pie crusts and let cool. In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and salt. If there are any clumps in the brown sugar break them up with a fork. In another smaller bowl mix together the melted marg, which has cooled some, add the beaten eggs, (if the marg. is to hot you will have scrambled eggs) the vanilla, and milk. Beat well. Add this wet mixture to the brown sugar mixture and then blend it together well with the mixer. Pour into the baked crust or crusts and bake for 30 minutes on 350. 60-70 minutes for the deep dish crust or until set. Let cool completely before you slice it.

OATMEAL CAKE

How long has it been since you have make this ole time cake. It has been a few years for me. I remember one of our friends who would make this for my husband. Since she has died I had forgotten about this recipe. I will have to make him one. Believe me it is so good and another ole recipe we may sometimes forget about is the Fruit Cocktail Cake. Boths stay so moist and keep for a long time. I like to keep mine in ther ref.

1 1/2 Cups Boiling Water
1 Cup Minute Oats
1/2 Cup Shortening or Blue Bonnet Butter
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup Granulated Sugar
2 Eggs, slightly beaten
1 Cup Flour
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda, this turns the cake brown
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1 Teaspoon Vanilla

In a bowl, pour boiling water over oatmeal and let stand 20 minutes. In another bowl, cream together shortening(or butter), brown sugar and white sugar; add eggs and oatmeal mixture and mix well. Then add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt and mix thoroughly. Pour into a greased and floured 9x13 inch pan and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes, until done.

Frosting:
1/3 Cup Butter or Marg.
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Milk
1 Cup Shredded Coconut
1/2 Cup Pecans, chopped

Mix  butter, brown sugar and milk in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add in shredded coconut and chopped pecans and boil till thick, about 1 minute. Spread on cake while hot and place back in oven under broiler for a minute or two. Don't leave it long or the frosting will cook too long and be hard when the cake cools down. You're just wanting the tips of the coconut and nuts to toast, but they will burn if left too long.

OLE TIME PEACH PUDDING DESSERT

1 Cup Flour
3/4 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Milk
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla
3 Tablespoons Veg. Oil
1 Can (29)oz. Peaches, drained  or frozen peaches that have been thawed
1 Cup Brown Sugar, packed good
1 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1 Cup Boil Water
1/2 Cup Chopped Pecans, can leave out

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a bowl mix the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in the milk, oil and vanilla. Pour batter into an 8x8x2 inch baking dish and smooth. Arrange peaches over the batter, placing them close together. In small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle it over the peaches. Pour the 1 cup of boiling water carefully over all. Bake for 60-70 minutes until a tooth pick inserted in the cake comes out clean. There may be some pudding mixture on it but the dough should show done. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream. My aunt makes this for all our home comings and everyone loves this. It is best served warmed. It will sort of be gooey but don't worry it will be done.
