Categories : Norwegian Breakfast
Pancakes Potatoes
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 lb Potatoes
1/4 c Butter
1/4 c Milk
1 1/2 ts Salt
1 t Sugar
1/4 ts MSG
1/8 ts Black pepper
2 1/2 c Sifted all-purpose flour
1. Wash, peel and cook the potatoes. Cut in halves and
boil. Drain the cooked potatoes. Dry the potatoes by
shaking the pan over low heat. Mash or rice the
potatoes thoroughly. 2. Whip into the potatoes the
butter and milk, and a mixture of the salt, sugar, MSG
and black pepper. 3. Whip the potatoes until light and
fluffy. Cool the potatoes and then chill in the
refrigerator. 4. Set a heavy skillet or griddle over
low heat to warm. Do not grease the skillet or
griddle. 5. Remove the chilled potatoes from the
refrigerator. Add about half of the flour and beat
until smooth. Beat in enough of the remaining flour to
make a smooth dough, shape into a ball and turn out
onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into a round
about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into 6 inch "rounds. 6. Test
the griddle by dropping on it a few drops of cold
water. If the drops dance around in little beads,
temperature is about right. Do not grease. 7. Place a
lefse "round" on the griddle or skillet and cook until
browned. Turn and lightly brown on the other side.
Then, turning frequently, continue cooking until the
Lefse are lightly browned and dry. Remove and place on
a clean, dry towel. Cool completely. 8. To serve ...

Piccadilly Cafeteria Lemon Ice Box Pie
Crust
1 box Jiffy Mix Yellow Cake Mix (prepared as directed)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Crumble cooled prepared cake and measure 2 cups of crumbs, patting crumbs
lightly down when measuring. Place crumbs in small bowl and mix in the sugar.
Spray a 9-inch pie pan with Pam and pat cake crumbs in pie pan on the bottom
and up the sides. Place pie crust in a preheated 275 degrees F oven for
7 minutes. Watch crust carefully so the crumbs will not scorch. When done,
remove and cool crust.
Filling
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
5 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups whole milk
3 egg yolks, beaten
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
In a 2-quart sauce pan mix sugar, flour, salt and milk. Bring ingredients
to a low boil and cook for two or three minutes, stirring constantly, until
filling becomes thick. Remove pan from heat and add 1/2 cup of hot mixture
to beaten egg yolks and whisk together. Place filling back on stove at a low
heat and slowly pour egg yolks into filling while whisking together. Pour
lemon juice and vanilla into filling and bring to a soft boil and cook for
two to three minutes longer. When filling is thick, remove from heat and set
aside to cool. The filling may be poured into the crust while still a little
warm but not hot.
Place pie in refrigerator for several hours to set and chill completely.
When chilled, top with Cool Whip and sprinkle the two tablespoons of crumbled
cake crumbs over the top. Garnish with fresh lemon zest.
