Chocolate Chip cookies

While you are on the road there is no need to go without those lovely home made cookies and treats. Here are some simple recipes that only take a few moments to prepare and can be cooked in your RV. But be forewarned, it is going to take quite a lot of self restraint to keep from devouring them before they fully cool.

1. In a saucepan, warm syrup and butter together slowly. Mix in the cocoa powder. Take off the heat.
2. Add sugar and mix together well. Add cornflakes mixing well till they are all covered in the chocolate mixture.
3. Put spoonfuls into paper muffin cups and leave a few minutes to set.

You can double up on this quantity to make more, store in an airtight tin if they are around long enough to keep for several days!!

1. Melt Butter and Caramels together slowly. Add marshmallows and stir until they have melted and the mixture is smooth.
2. Add Rice Krispies and mix well until they are completely covered in the caramel mixture.
3. Turn into a greased baking pan and leave to set, if possible in a cool place or fridge
4. Before they set hard cut into squares.

1. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan and line with parchment, leaving an overhang on two sides.
2. In a large saucepan, cook the butter and marshmallows over medium heat, stirring, until melted. Mix in the cornflakes and cinnamon.
3. Press the cornflake mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Let cool completely, then lift out and cut into squares.

1. Line two cookie sheets with waxed paper. Set aside
2. In double boiler - Place chocolate chips and butterscotch chips together in top of double boiler over hot, not simmering, water, or bowl over a pan of hot water. Do not let the bowl touch the water. Melt, stirring until smooth. Remove top part of double boiler
3. Add chow mein noodles, peanuts and raisins to melted chocolate. Using rubber spatula toss ingredients to coat well. Drop teaspoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets. Place cookie sheets in refrigerator until cookies harden. Store in cold or cool place in airtight container

These next two recipes need the Oven:

1. Put a scoop of ice cream in a bowl and leave for about 10 minutes to soften.
2. Meanwhile pre heat the oven to 375 degrees and put the muffin cases onto a baking pan.
3. Beat the ice cream with a wooden spoon until it's really soft and runny. Then sift in the flour and stir just enough to mix in.
4. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cases and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the cakes are risen and golden.

Yields: 6-8 muffins

1. Melt butter and sugar in a saucepan, bring to a boil.
2. Remove from heat, add flour fruit and walnuts, mix well.
3. Beat in egg spread into a greased swiss roll pan. Sprinkle all over with a little brown sugar.
4. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes at 325 degrees until golden brown.
5. Cut into squares while still hot, remove from pan when cold.

These freeze well and defrost very quickly.
