| ILoveToBake.com MERINGUE COOKIES WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS No Wheat Recipe! |
| We make these cookies all year long but especially at Christmas. They are my husband’s favorites. My mother–in-law always made a batch before he came home. Ellie liked them because she couldn’t have wheat products. |
| Ingredients |
| 1 egg white 1/2 cup of sugar 1 handful of cornflakes crushed 1/2 cup of chocolate chips |
| Step by Step |
| Preheat oven to 350 F. 1) Beat 1 egg white until it is thick. 2) Add 1/2 cup of sugar gradually while continuing to beat the egg white. 3) Add the handful of crushed cornflakes and fold into the mix. 4) Add the chocolate chips and mix. 5) Drop by teaspoon onto a buttered cookie sheet. 6) Bake at 350 F for 15 minutes. 7) Cool.  Serve and Enjoy! |
| Ridgewood Needlepoint |
| Ridgewood Needlepoint is a needlepoint store that specializes in painted canvases, threads and classes. It is a warm and welcoming place where we enjoy teaching many different levels of stitching. This year, finished items have started to trickle in at Ridgewood Needlepoint. There are lots of ornaments and stockings. In addition, I finished a Tapestry Tent Stocking called “The Entourage.” The stitching is great and the finishing is unbelieveable. Instead of a stitched cuff, it has a fur cuff and a stitched nametag. That way it can really be an heirloom.
Customers are actively involved in classes on two Christmas themed items – Candy Village by Beau Geste and the Midtown Manhattan Stocking by DJ Designs. (We call it the Rockerfeller Center Stocking). Both projects are progressing nicely and should be finished in time for Christmas 2007. The Rockerfeller Center Stocking class can also be taken as a cyber class. We will be seeing many of our customers as they pick up their finishing. It’s always exciting to have a box of finishing come in, especially at this time of year! We enjoy the holiday season at Ridgewood Needlepoint. |
