Spaghetti Pie

Stir butter, Parmesan cheese and eggs into hot spaghetti. Form spaghetti mixture into a “crust” in a buttered 10-inch pie plate or 9 x 9-inch pan.

In skillet cook hamburger. Drain fat. Stir in spaghetti sauce. Spread cottage cheese over spaghetti crust. Fill “pie” with spaghetti sauce and hamburger mixture. Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.

Sprinkle Mozzarella cheese on top. Bake 5 minutes more or until cheese melts.

Chocolate Angel Pie

Melt chocolate chips in double boiler. Add egg yolks to melted chips. Mix until shiny. Beat egg whites until fluffy in separate bowl.  Put chocolate and egg yolks into bowl and fold in beaten fluffy egg whites.

Whip cream while adding sugar and vanilla.  Next fold in 1/2 of whipped cream. (save second half of whipped cream for pie topping.) Pour into baked pie shell and refrigerate. Add 2nd half of whipped cream as topping just before serving.

Frosted Sour Cream Drops

Sift together flour, salt, soda, & powder. Cream butter and sugar until light & fluffy. Beat in eggs, vanilla & almond extract. Add dry ingredients alternatively with sour cream – blend. Chill thoroughly (hour or more). Drop level tbsp. dough 2 in. apart on greased baking sheet. Keep dough well chilled until baked – taking a portion from refrig. at a time. Makes 6 dozen. bake for 10-12 min. at 375 degrees

Butter frosting

Cream butter.    Add remaining ingredients and cream until spreading consistency.   Spread tsp. on each cookie.  (We like the frosting so I tend to go a teensy bit more of the ingredients to make a slightly bigger batch)

Strawberry Squares

For crumb mixture, combine flour, nuts, margarine, and brown sugar.  Spread evenly into a shallow baking pan.  Bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes;  stir occasionally.  Sprinkle two-thirds of the crumbs into a 13 x 9 x 2 inch baking pan.

In a large mixing bowl combine egg whites, strawberries, sugar and lemon juice.  Beat with an electric mixer on high speed for about 10 minutes or till stiff peaks form (tips stand straight).  In a small mixing bowl beat the whipping cream till soft peaks form.  Fold whipped cream into strawberry mixture.  Spoon evenly over crumbs in baking pan; sprinkle remaining crumbs on top.  Cover; freeze at least 6 hours or till firm.  Serves 12 to 16.

* Note:  If desired, use one 10-ounce package frozen sliced strawberries, partially thawed, and 2/3 cup sugar.
