Almost every Christmas I make these cookies for our family get together. I got this recipe from my
Mom. I usually triple it, 9 adults and 9 nieces and nephews and a ton of Gillooly sweet tooth's.
1/2 Cup Crunchy Peanut Butter
11/4 Cup Powdered sugar
1 Tbsp Butter
Mix well, roll into balls and chill in refrigerator for at least an hour.
6oz. Semi-Sweet Chocolate
1 Scant Tbsp Paraffin Wax
Heat on a double boiler.
Dip balls in chocolate mixture and drain on wax paper.
Enjoy and Merry Christmas!!
This recipe comes from my good friend Tom, who I met when I was 18 years old going into my freshman year of college.
1 Lb Large Shrimp, Peeled Deveined, Uncooked
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
3 Tbsp Olive Oil
1 Medium Onion
1 14.5 oz Can Diced Tomatoes
1 Cup Dry White Wine
3 Garlic Cloves Chopped
1/4 tsp Dried Oregano Leaves
3 Tbsp Chopped Parsley
3 Tbsp Chopped Basil
In a bowl, toss shrimp with 1 tsp salt and red pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and saute until just cooked (2 minutes). With slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to bowl leaving oil in skillet. Add onion to skillet and saute until translucent. Add tomatoes (with juice), wine, garlic, oregano, and simmer until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Return shrimp to tomato mixture and toss to coat. Remove from heat and stir in parsley and basil.
Enjoy!! Merry Christmas!!!
