BLARNEY STONES
An old family recipe. The original notes called for a "Large Square Pan," but I tried it in an 8" pan, which did not work well - they turned out overly large. So I switched it to a 9x13" pan, but just be sure to spread it evenly (although the dough is a little sticky), or the thin parts will overcook.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
- Place 2 eggs in a 1-cup measuring cup and fill to top with milk (about 1/2 c, varies based on eggs).
- Mix for 5 minutes with dry ingredients - I do this by hand the way she always did, so I'm not sure whether or not using a mixer would be good.
- Spread evenly in a greased 9 x 13" pan for 12-15 minutes, and bake until cookies are puffy, golden brown, and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, prepare a powdered sugar icing by combining 1 c powdered sugar with a small quantity of milk (start with just a tablespoon or so). Mix well. Add milk as needed to reach your desired consistency (a bit like a glaze).
- Finely crush the peanuts.
- When cookies are done, let cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares. Coat in icing, then roll in nuts. Let dry on wax paper.

GRANDMA MOTTLE'S BLARNEY STONES
Every St. Patrick's Day when we were growing up, my grandmother would have us over to make Blarney Stones, pound cake cubes dipped in frosting and rolled in dry roasted peanuts. This became a tradition we considered part of our Irish family heritage.

BLARNEY STONE APPETIZER
"A real crowd-pleaser" is how Christine Halandras, from Meeker, Colorado, describes her baked spinach appetizer."Plus, it's so nice to make ahead of time," she adds. "You can quickly reheat it later or even serve it cold." The recipe makes a delicious vegetable entree or side dish, too-just cut the pieces into larger squares.

Tips:
- Use good quality butter for a richer flavor.
- Make sure the butter is cold before creaming it with the sugar, this will help to create a light and fluffy texture.
- Gradually add the flour to the butter and sugar mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Do not overmix the dough, as this will make the stones tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling and cutting, this will help to prevent the stones from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the stones in a preheated oven until they are golden brown, this will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Allow the stones to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
