Subject: Pillsbury Cookie Dough Recipe
I once had a recipe that used 2 large rolls of Pillsbury
cookie dough. Line a 9" x 13" pan with one of the rolls
of cookie dough. The center filling (made with cream cheese)
is spread over the dough, then the other roll of cookie dough
covers the filling. Somehow, I misplaced it and would like it
again.
Thank you.

Hello Debbie,
Could this be it?

Hello Derek,
I had to be careful here, because there are two kinds of "savory salt". One
is simply a mixture of herbs for the use of people who must eat a low-sodium
diet. This kind doesn't actually contain any "savory" at all.
The other seems to be a mixture of the herb "savory" or "summer savory" and
... salt. "Savory" or "summer savory" is an herb used to flavor meat.
I think you can buy the real kind here:

Hi Amy,
I have heard that "nipples of Venus" (Capezzoli di Venere), not to be
confused with "minni di Sant' Agata" (nipples of Saint Agatha), are simply
brandied chestnuts. The person who posted the below on a message board seems
to know what she's talking about:
"Capezzoli di Venere"
">This is a Viennese confection made famous by the movie "Amadeus." It
>consists of fresh chestnuts, boiled in water for 5 minutes or baked on a
>cookie sheet at 450F for 5 min, after cutting an X on the stem end, then
>cooled, peeled and coated liberally with buttercream candy mix (1 bag 10x
>sugar, brandy or a flavored extract, enough butter to make a stiff paste
>and food coloring) and allowed to harden."
Note that in the movie "Amadeus", they just used marzipan.
