Hey Ladies,
Here is the recpie for the pumpkin squares we had at our first RS "meeting". But, I am also including my turkey brine recipe. I tried it a couple of weeks ago and it was so moist and yummy and normally I really don't like turky much. Despite it being almost Spring--I hope you enjoy!
Pumpkin Squares
Whip together:
16 oz. pumpkin
4 eggs
1 c. oil
1 2/3 c. sugar
Sift together:
2 c. flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
Combing all ingredients and pur into a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Cool and frost.
Frosting
Cream together:
1 8 oz. cream cheese
1/2 c. butter
Add 1 lb. powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix until creamy and frost cooled squares.
Turkey Brine
1 c. kosher salt
1/2 c. brown sugar
5 bay leaves
2 tbs. blakc pepper corns
1 tbs. garlic powder
1 tbs. dried rosemary
1 tbs. rubbed sage
1 tbs. coriander seeds
Disolve brine in 2 quarts of boiling water. Once it is dissolved, add 1-2 quarts more water (depending on the size of your bird). Place your turkey in a large Ziploc storage bag (one of the big ones designed for holding sweaters). When the brine is cool, pour over brid. Let bird sit in brine for 12-24 hours. Remove, rinse and roast immediately.
Happy cooking!
Cheryl
