Pizzaburgers
Pizzaburgers are our suggestion for a Teen Time Picnic.They're first cousins of the Italian pizza much easier to prepare though. For the meat mixture combine 1 1/2 pounds ground beef with 1/4 c. chopped onion, 1 1/2 t. salt, 1/8 t. each pepper, thyme, basil, and oregano. Mix together well, form into 6 patties about 1" thick. Broil for 10 minutes on one side, turn and broil 5 minutes on other side. Use English muffins for base of pizzas, cut in half and arrange patties on muffins. Place a spoonful of tomato paste on each patty, sprinkle with grated American cheese and return to broiler for a few minutes until cheese is melted.
Fudge Cake
1/3 c. cocoa
1/3 c. water
1/3 c. butter
1 1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
2 c. cake flour or 1 3/4 c. all purpose flour
1 t. soda
1/2 t. salt
3/4 c. buttermilk
1 t. vanilla
Mix cocoa and water until well blended. Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and beat until very creamy. Add sifted flour combined with soda and salt alternately with buttermilk combined with vanilla, mixing only until smooth. Add cocoa mixture last. Pour into greased and floured 9" square pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
Note: Are you using dry skim milk? It is wonderful for scalloped potatoes. In liquifying use 3/4 c. of dry skim milk to 1 quart water. Add more milk to your family's diet by including extra dry skim milk in making sauces and the like. Dry skim milk requires very little storage space and will keep for several months in a cool dry place. Mix powder with dry ingredients, then add the water as you would fluid milk. Give dry milk a try in products such as beverages, soups, main dishes, baked foods and desserts.
