Halloween Recipes
I thought I had printed out some of Grandma's snack mix recipes for Halloween, but they're nowhere to be found! Some of them included white chocolate. Can I get some ideas before the witching hour?

QuestionHi Betty,
Would you happen to have the recipe for the old fashion cooked Date Roll Candy? My mother-in-law always made it at Christmas and I never did get that recipe. Everyone loved it and looked forward to her sweets. Thank you for your help.

I'm just starting out my cooking for the first time and would like to know how different or easy it is to use garlic paste in place of a clove of garlic? And if the clove is better how to use it? Thanks Betty!

QuestionI was wondering if you could add the thumbprint cookies recipe to the site. I had it in my recipe box but it seems to have gone missing, the good recipes always do. I made them 2 years ago as Christmas presents for the homeless and would really like to make them for my kids this year. I remember the filling being preserves and they were so good. Thanks so much! --Jamie Hi Betty. I had a box of your recipes that my mother gave me when I married. Unfortunately, I lost one of my favorites: the thumbprint cookies. It was a sugar cookie with preserves in center. Can you please post that one or send it? Thank you. --KristinaMarch 2012
