STROMBOLI BREAD

You can change ingredients to fit what you have and what you like.  Provolone is very good, but I usually use Mozzarella.  When I brought it to you I used Monteray Jack because that is what I had.

 

1 large recipe pizza dough

¼ lb each of:

ham, turkey, salami, pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, provolone cheese

½ cup finely chopped onion

½ cup finely chopped green pepper

1 pkg. frozen broccoli (cooked and drained)

¼  cup melted butter with ½ tsp. garlic salt added

 

Roll out dough to ¼ inch thick.  Brush with garlic butter.  Layer all ingredients, rollup, brushing dough with butter as you roll. Roll as tight as you can.  Put in horseshoe shape on greased cookie sheet.  Bake 25 minutes at 400 degrees until golden brown.  Slice and enjoy.

Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake with Ginger Crust

Ginger Crust

2 cups ginger cookies, ground

2 Tbs. brown sugar

1 tsp. ground ginger

¼ cup butter, melted

Cheesecake filling

2 – 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese

¾ cup sugar

2 eggs

1 – 15 oz can pumpkin (Store extra pumpkin in freezer in bags measured out for recipe because it only lasts about 1 week in the fridge)

1 cup sour cream

1 ½ tsp. cinnamon

½ tsp. nutmeg

½ tsp ginger

½ tsp. cloves

½ tsp. allspice

½ tsp. salt

whipped cream (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  To make crust grind ginger cookies in a blender or food processor until fine.  Mix in brown sugar and ginger.  Add melted butter and blend thoroughly.  Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan.  Bake 10 minutes.  Turn oven down to 325 degrees and allow the crust to cool while you are making the filling.

With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth.  Gradually beat in sugar.  Beat in eggs, one at a time.  In a separate bowl, blend pumpkin and sour cream with spices and salt, mixing well.  Stir gently into the cream cheese mixture by hand.  Pour cream cheese filling into the crust.  Place a large piece of aluminum foil on your counter.  Wrap the pan tightly with the foil.  Place cheesecake in a large roasting pan.  Fill the pan with very hot water (1 inch up the side of springform pan) to make a water bath.  Bake cheesecake 1 hour.  Turn oven off and leave cheesecake in oven to cool for 1 more hour.  Chill in the refrigerator.  Just before serving, garnish with whipped cream, if desired.  Refrigerate any leftovers.  Serves 10-12.
