Soft at first, these cookies harden into 'dunkers' after about 3 weeks. (Yes, they keep a long time!) They need a mold for the traditional Pennsylvania Dutch cookie, but I bet that they can be made by simply cutting them out. You can substitute other flavorings for anise - lemon and almond are good.

Thou shalt not utter the name Philly, without it's suffix, 'Steak Sandwich.' Hoagie rolls are stuffed with sauteed beef, onion and green pepper, then covered with melted Swiss cheese. These sandwiches are delicious.

My Pennsylvania Dutch grandmother, Florence Walter, used to make these. They are especially great for picnics. The combination of pickled eggs, beets, and onions is really something special. A great way to use up left-over Easter-eggs too!

Refrigerator biscuits help you make short work of getting this yummy treat on the table. Cinnamon sugar, chopped pecans and margarine coat each morsel of dough, and a drizzling of dark corn syrup makes sure they will be very sticky.

This is my mom's corn pie. We grew up eating this and loving it in the heart of Amish country. It is a very hearty dish, and easy to make. Give this one a try before you decide you won't like it. Corn takes on a whole different flavor made this way. Some people add cooked chicken to the pie as well.
