New Orleans Recipes - Calas Tous Chauds (Rice Fritters)

This is another favorite recipe that was a wonderful celebration for the whole family grew up in New Orleans. I can remember this at celebrations such as baptism, First Communion or someone. Of course, we had a lot of time just because we asked my mother to make them. It was treated generally as a breakfast, which I served with chicory coffee good pricked strong and black, with sugar and condensed milk. In the last 15 years, I have converted to sweetener as a concessionage and my waistline.A good cold glass of milk helps it go down as well. In my opinion, I enjoy these treats more than the famous new Orleans beignets.These are not low calorie treats but then very little of my mother and grandmother recipes were diet food. So enjoy!

Wherever possible, it is recommended that (bio-products used without additives), wherever possible be.

PanBrownies

These are as pot brownies, because the original recipe called for a piece of butter that was melted in a pot. The texture of these brownies is still a piece of cake-like than fudge-like.

Mix in a bowl:

1 / 2 cup organic flour1 / 3 cup cocoa1 / 4 teaspoon baking powder powder1 / 4 teaspoon salt

In a separate bowl mix:

1 / 2 cup prune puree (a glass baby food prunes 4 ounces is perfect) 2 / 3 cup sugar1 teaspoon vanilla2 organic or free range eggs (or equivalent amount ofEgg substitute like Egg Beaters)

Fat-Free Fudge Brownies

Cool to room temperature and cut into squares.

The following recipe was originally acquired by the LA Daily News.

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY BROWNIES

CharlotteBalcomb Lane

1 1 / 2 cups sugar3 / 4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder1 cup fat-free egg substitutes1 glass (10 ounces) sugar-free raspberry preserves (or apricot or cherry) 1 teaspoon vanilla1 / 2 teaspoon salt1 / 2 teaspoons baking powder soda1 / 4 teaspoon almond extract1 cup flour

Thoroughly coat a 9x13 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray. (Chef's note: It seems to me that a thorough dusting with flour to work instead.)

Set aside.

With an electric mixer, combine sugar and cocoa. Graduallypour in egg substitutes and raspberry jam, beating on low speed until the sugar is no longer grainy.

Add vanilla, salt and almond extract and beat briefly to mix. Flour and baking powder and stir with a flexible rubber spatula. Do not over mix. Turn into prepared pan and fill.

Bake in preheated 325-degrees for 30-35 minutes baking. Brownies should be slightly underbaked but not liquid in the middle. Let cool and cut them into 2x2 squares. Makes 24th

TEST KITCHENNOTES:

Because of the jam, these brownies cut sticky.

To reduce stuck, wet the knife between the incised or partially freeze the brownies before cutting. (Side note: This is assuming you were able to wait until they are cool, reduce them, rather than some of scooping with a spatula!)
