Food Processor Pie Crust
This food processor pie crust is easy and foolproof. The secret to a good crust is to have everything very cold and to handle it as little as possible. Use frozen or almost frozen shortening, lard, or butter as your fat and ice water, and then chill the dough well before rolling. Process the dough as little as possible and use only the amount of water needed to allow you to form it into a ball, not the machine.
Chômeur's Pudding
A classic French Canadian dessert. Along with rice pudding and gelatin, this is one of the most commonly offered desserts in diners. Contrary to the usual recipe, this one uses milk for a more cake-like texture.
Oatmeal Crackers
Made these for my daughter one day. She likes them more than store-bought ones, and I like knowing what she's eating.
