I don’t care for banana things ( except for kit kats & Popsicles),but my grandfather loved banana flips & Archway soft molasses & lemon icebox cookies.

Archway made black walnut icebox cookies at Christmastime. They were wonderful!

TX Monthly has some really good content. Great photos.

Politically though they are leftists.

Again, I truly appreciate & so look forward to your cooking thread. It is such a wonderful respite from politics, work & life. I enjoy the people who post, the ideas I get & just escaping after a rough day or week. Thanks!

They were! I haven’t seen them in a long time. Archway selection were I live is limited, no where near what I remember. I had some frosted ginger snaps a few years ago and they were terrible, dry and hard. When I contacted the company I was sheepishly told the healthier ingredients have caused changes to taste and texture. I haven’t bought anything else.

How that takes me back. I worked on upper GA AVE in DC in the 80s in a crappy building with a little store in the lobby. The owner was Horace, a Jamaican guy whose wife made these patties every morning. The whole store smelled like curry. All these years later i still remember that scent. I just wish that they didn’t spice the coffee. That was undrinkable.

Minto Jamaican Market (Oakland, CA, Broadway near 40th) sells the patties. I tried one and was unimpressed. It tasted like a Banquet TV dinner Salisbury steak.

The brand at my store is “Golden Krust”. Sold individually in a white paper wrapper. I try to keep a couple in the freezer for when I’m too lazy to make something else!

Not from convenience store direct, mind you, but a very convenient dessert.
Serve warm for dessert and serve cold for breakfast, if there's any leftovers.
And, yes, you can add chocolate chips.

Red Velvet Cherry Dump Cake

METHOD Dump 2-21 oz cans cherry pie filling into sprayed 9x13" pan.
Spread even w/ spatula. Sprinkle box Betty Crocker Red Velvet Cake Mix
over evenly. Pour cup melted sweet butter over evenly. Sprinkle w/ 1 1/2 c
sweetened coconut flakes. Bake 350 deg 50-60 min.

SERVE with ice cream or whipped cream.

Soft Molasses cookies are so easy to make. I use a recipe from a 1949 book called America Eats. It goes through all the different regional fare of every state. It's good because in 1949, America was still not in the least bit homogeneous.

Yes, proud to say they’ve never got a dime out of this conservative Texan.
