I received this recipe from a Mennonite missionary a few years back. USE STICK BUTTER... tubs of Country Crock style or margarine will not work for this recipe.

I was disappointed with these cookies. They did not hold together at all while baking, even when I covered the baking sheet with parchment paper. It did make good granola, once I crumbled it, though. Not healthy granola, but good.

I enjoyed these. In order to make them chocolate, I used 1/2 cup cocoa and 2 cups flour.

My, this bread was tasty! I used 1/2 cup sugar instead of Splenda, since we didn't have any on hand. Also I extended the second rising time to 2 hrs. instead of the 1 hr. the recipe calls for. Everyone loved it; it looked and tasted like genuine artisan bread! Another thing I liked about it was that it wasn't dense like many homemade breads tend to be. 5 stars for D's Whole Wheat Challah!
