Curt's Garlic Knots with Mom's Dough Recipe

By
Mom's Pizza Dough Made Into Garlic Knots....


One of our favorite appetizers before a big meal on Sunday's. It's a family tradition. We just can't eat a big pasta dinner without these. Here's what I use on mine:

1 package of Mom's Pizza Dough Recipe or store bought around 1 pound bag
4 tablespoon melted butter
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon each:  dried oregano, basil, garlic powder, parsley
salt and pepper to taste
cayenne pepper to taste
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
ziplock bag

Take pieces of the dough roll into ropes and then tie them in a knot, using around three inches of dough to do that for each one. Place on a  greased cookie sheet to rise 1/2 hour. Bake on 400 degree oven until brown. While they are cooking get the bag ready to shake them in.
Pour all the ingredients in a ziplock bag. Add cooked  warm garlic knots shake them in the bag while warm. If the garlic knots look a little dry baste them with more melted butter.

Curt, they look more like rolls instead of knots to me...but either way, I just love it with all the garlic, cheese and spices, and the convenient way to make them from the ready made pizza dough from Publix!

I will check out your mom's pizza dough recipe to make homemade. Thanks for sharing:) xo

I made these (I think the recipe was from the CNYEats Taste of UTica book?) and INHALED them! Love the doughy, bready-ness of the knots. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no self control when I see something like this.

By
I just had to tell you how excited I was to help launch my son's new blog and guest post for him.  I am so proud of him!  I also saw my brother post a photo to Facebook last week of his fabulous looking breakfast pancakes with apples. He gave me the tip on how he makes the apples so they cook all the way through and aren't undercooked inside. We always had that problem, so thanks to his tip and using Curt's pancake recipe from my blog @What's Cookin' we got some awesome pancakes to share with you!  Enjoy!

Supermarket Style Loft Cookies

By
One of my favorite cut out cookies and those soft loft cookies you find in almost every supermarket decorated for whatever holiday theme is going on. You can make Christmas, Halloween, Valentines, anything you want. These are just a great dough so versatile to work with. Kids love these cookies and often eat all the frosting off before the cookie, you may know someone just like that! The frosting is buttery and delicious along with the cookies. If you love loft cookies try my soft peanut butter molasses cookies also they are so good! This is a simple recipe that will be your new favorite cookie all year long.
