CRAPPY RECIPES............

[Adirondacker]

I just love that the caramel bars are from "Bklyn Larder, a small specialty foods market in Brooklyn. They source local farmers for their ingredients." I'm assuming Brooklyn New York, Makes me wonder if the got the sugar from one of the sugarcane plantations in Queens or if they settled for sugar from the sugar beet farms in Staten Island, Perhaps the chocolate was make from regular everyday cocoa beans from the Bronx or maybe someplace more exotic like Jersey City. Did the instant coffee come from Robusta bean grown in Nassau county or did they come from Arabicas the highlands of Scarsdale? ....And everybody knows the dairy herds in Manhattan give the finest milk to make the butter and cream.....

I posted a conversion as a reply below. I've used chocolate chips and saltines before and it is still delicious.

Saw it... thanks.

That caramel bar recipe would work better for me if it weren't metric!! ;-)

check out the conversion I posted below, worth the attempt :)

I don't understand why these are posted without recipes. That's just torture!

Oh God, can someone make those caramel bars and that syrup cake and send it to me? looks super tasty.

I had a dear friend named Katie, who had a place in Montclair NJ many will remember named,
"Just Deserts", and that's what they served, she then also opened a fantastic Jazz Club where Spiro Giro got it's start..also the Everyman Band I think ..many others..

That caramel bar reminds me of the Nanaimo bar of Vancouver island. A treat that must be tasted to be believed.

but readily available across Canada...along with that other national dessert, "Butter Tarts" (very like Pecan Pie without the Pecans).

[ljkcan]

I think I would like them more than nanimo bars. Which can be found at M&M's or Costco.
Homemade is better and I always make homemade butter tarts.

The gateau with syrup reminds me of one I have had in Quebec made with maple syrup.

When we were young, my sister and I discovered the best way to eat Butter Tarts was frozen, straight out of the freezer. My poor mother ended up with much less xmas baking put away than she thought she had.

How about converting the Caramel Bar recipe measurements...please...

Rough, but this recipe probably isn't one where precision is super important.

Ingredients
- 500 grams McVities Digestive Biscuits (eye ball it, what do you think will work? probably 4 C or so? - I've used unsalted saltines with great results before)
- 120 grams Sugar (1/2-1/3 C)
- 324 grams Butter, melted (1 1/2 sticks)
- 1 gram Salt (1/2 t)
- 250 grams Cream (1 C)
- 250 grams Butter (1 stick)
- 420 grams Brown Sugar (1.75-2 C)
- 30 grams Water (2 T)
- 1 gram Salt (1/2 t)
- 480 grams El Ray Bucare chocolate (3 1/4 C - eh chocolate chips work fine)
- 160 grams Cream (3/4 C)
- 6 grams Instant Coffee (1 1/2 - 2 T)
- Maldon Salt, as needed

You are an angel to do this. I have a kitchen scale that does both metric and avoirdupois but it's so convenient to have the "cups and tablespoons!!" Thank you.
