Dear Phaed,
Im really hoping you can help me here...About 40 years ago my grandmother
use to make Cookies that we as kids called Applesauce cookies. They were
real soft and plump with fat juicy raisins, spicy like spice cake sort of .
More the texture of a cake than a cookie though. My grandma lived a very
meager life and she was dirt poor. I don't remember her ever owning any
spices and I stayed with her often so I am almost leaning towards a cake
mix that had all the spices in it already however I have tried many from
the internet and hers were a little heavier than the product I get and
nicely browned. Mine turn out light colored. I dont know for sure if they
actually had applesauce in them..just what we called them. I so miss these cookies.
Thanks for all your posts..I love them!
Cathy

Subject: Meta Givens recipes
Love your website! I know you said to limit it to one request, but since
these both will come from the same source I hope you will excuse me asking
for two. I am looking for Meta Givens recipes for Twin Mountain muffins and
a Pancake recipe using evaporated milk. These are simple but memorable recipes.
I don't have them because I let my ex-husband keep the Meta Given cookbooks
since he is the one who found them at auctions.
Your help would be appreciated greatly.
Sincerely,
Rita
Hi Rita,
The Twin Mountain muffins recipe is below.
Rita, you may ask for as many recipes as you wish, but each recipe request should
be in a separate e-mail, no matter the source.
Phaed

Hello Richard,
This was not difficult. Whirlpool has a website at:
Whirlpool Corp.
I went there, to the Product Literature Page:
Whirlpool Corp. Product Literature
I put in the first 6 digits of your model #, and the attached manual in *.pdf format is the result.
