- Hey y'all I'm in my old kitchen
0:03
on Turner's Creek and those that have followed me for years,
0:08
y'all will recognize this kitchen
0:10
because I shot in this kitchen for years.
0:14
So, I'm back in it!
0:18
Michael and I have come full circle,
0:20
we're right back where it started (laughs).
0:22
We at the scene of the crime (laughs).
0:25
- It's a good crime.
0:25
- That's the wall that my two dogs ran around
0:28
and found Michael propped on his chain link fence
0:32
smokin' a cigarette and talkin' on his cell phone.
0:35
And you know what, 16 years later,
0:37
the only thing he doesn't do any different
0:39
is he aint smokin' cigarettes. - Exactly.
0:41
- It's cigars now.
0:45
And they stink so bad.
0:47
So, the team and myself,
0:51
my team, Eddie.
0:53
My team, Theresa.
0:55
And my team, Paula.
0:56
That's our team (laughs).
0:59
And we got together and we talked about Christmas cookies
1:05
and we thought it would be fun to do
1:07
the 12 days of Christmas cookies.
1:12
Well, when we opened up Paula Deen's Family Kitchen
1:17
in Nashville Tennessee, there was a cute young man
1:21
that was our photographer
1:24
and his name was Phillip Feldman,
1:28
Fryman, F-r-y-m-a-n
1:32
and he is really really loyal to southern cooking
1:37
and he has his own Facebook page
1:44
and it's called, and we'll send you the link
1:47
so that you can go there and find out more about Phillip,
1:50
but it's Phillip.
1:56
- Southern FATTY. - Uh-huh.
1:58
I think it's just Phillip, not his second name,
2:01
but just Phillip
2:03
and southern and Southern FATTY.
2:09
Now the FATTY is all capital F-A-T-T-Y .com.
2:14
So it's PhillipSouthernFATTY, capitals, .com.
2:21
So, Phillip, you did so good
2:25
the day we were up there takin' pictures
2:27
and the grand opening and the ribbon cutting
2:30
of that restaurant was so so exciting for all of us
2:35
and I appreciate everything you did darling
2:38
to capture it on paper.
2:43
And not just, out there in the waves,
2:47
in those computer waves.
2:50
So I decided, after Theresa spoke with you,
2:56
you gave us permission to use your favorite cookie
3:00
that your mother makes every Christmas.
3:04
(dogs barking)
3:06
Whoa, who is it?
3:09
(dogs barking)
3:10
Hush!
3:13
So I have had this cookie years ago,
3:16
I'm almost thinking my grandma Paul might have made it.
3:20
But I don't know that I've ever made it.
3:24
So Phillip, I'm thrilled to death to get your recipe.
3:29
And it's called cornflake cookies
3:34
and it's an easy recipe, prep time maybe 15 minutes.
3:38
Cook time about 15 minutes.
3:41
So this is really gonna go quick.
3:44
So I can't wait to try you and your mama's cornflake cookies
3:50
And we're gonna start off by beating two sticks of butter.
4:00
Y'all aint shy about all the butter and Crisco (laughs)
4:06
used in this recipe.
4:08
- [Theresa] That's southern cooking though.
4:09
- I know, it's southern cooking!
4:11
And this is butter flavored solid shortening.
4:17
I think you know who makes it,
4:19
they've been around for 100 years.
4:21
So, we are just gonna beat these.
4:26
All right, let's see, cream butter, sugar and shortening
4:30
until just, no until well combined on this.
4:35
So, I'm gonna beat this for a minute
4:37
and then I'm gonna throw in our sugar.
4:52
Theresa and I was just in a conversation.
4:53
(dogs barking)
4:56
Hush Lulu!
4:58
We were just in a conversation about whether
5:02
you're supposed to use like frosted flakes
5:06
or just plain cornflakes and Theresa said,
5:09
I'm adding two cups of sugar, ya'll,
5:13
and Theresa said well I bought just plain old frosted,
5:19
I mean plain old cornflakes because frosted flakes
5:24
has a whole bunch of sugar!
5:27
And since we just put two cups of sugar in here,
5:33
Theresa felt like we did not need any extra.
5:39
- [Theresa] But what does Paula think?
5:41
- What does Paula think?
5:43
A little more sugar didn't never hurt nothin' (laughs).
5:46
- [Theresa] So you would be using frosted flakes.
5:47
- Except my belly, no Theresa,
5:50
since I didn't see frosted anywhere,
5:53
I'd a stood up there and I'd have a debate with myself.
5:57
But I would probably would have just settled on what he said
6:03
cornflakes. - It's unusual for you
6:04
Paula to follow a recipe. - I know (laughs).
6:06
I know it, ha-ha.
6:09
So Phillip, you're just a dear
6:11
and I'm so proud for the first recipe of
6:17
12 days of Christmas is yours!
6:21
Okay, so that seems to be pretty good.
6:25
All right, now let's see what his next step is.
6:28
He tells us to sift together flour, baking soda.
6:34
- [Theresa] On the left hand side.
6:35
- Over here, cream of tartar, right here.
6:39
And, okay, how much salt did he say?
6:43
- [Theresa] Half a teaspoon, I believe.
6:45
- Half a teaspoon, yes.
6:49
So let's see what I can transfer this with,
6:54
I think I'll use this.
6:55
So, this is all purpose flour.
6:58
Plain flour or all purpose, whatever you call it.
7:11
I can't wait to taste this recipe
7:13
and see if it rings the bell.
7:16
All right, soda, tartar.
7:20
And then half a teaspoon salt.
7:24
You know, this sounds like to me kinda like
7:26
that potato chip cookie, Theresa.
7:28
- [Theresa] Oh yeah.
7:29
- Have you ever had the potato chip?
7:30
- I have. - Well my cousin Don,
7:33
when he and Darleen come up and spend Christmas with us,
7:36
he makes that beautiful cherry cookie every Christmas
7:40
and we've done that for years and years and years
7:44
with Don and Darleen.
7:47
- [Theresa] Is that the chocolate chunk?
7:48
- No, it's the cherry cookies,
7:52
with the icing on top.
7:54
Oh my gosh, they are so good,
7:56
and they look real Christmas-y.
7:59
They good!
8:02
So, and he also makes that potato chip cookie
8:06
which this reminds me of that cookie, yes.
8:14
Come on flour, get through there.
8:18
You know what I found is the last ingredient
8:21
to stay in the sifter?
8:23
- The salt? - Kosher salt.
8:27
Stirring it up, put it in there, all right.
8:33
So let's see what little Phillip says.
8:37
Did I leave, may I have my measuring scoop please?
8:41
Thank you!
8:43
All right!
8:45
So by hand, all right let's see,
8:48
he said add this to the butter mixture
8:51
and combine until just mixed.
8:56
So that's what we're gonna do.
9:00
He doesn't say to add it in small amounts,
9:06
he just says add it to our butter mixture.
9:15
I think I'll do it like two separate,
9:19
two separate batches.
9:24
Okay, this is gonna be very thick.
9:31
A thick batter.
9:34
All right, here we go.
9:44
You know, every time I hear, "there we go"
9:49
I think of that children's nursery rhyme.
9:51
♪ There we go round the mulberry bush ♪
9:54
♪ The mulberry bush ♪
9:55
I'm trying to think, because of the little triplets,
9:58
they love for you to sing.
10:01
And I've been workin' on my nursery rhyme songs.
10:08
Here we go!
10:10
♪ Here we go round the mulberry bush ♪
10:11
and oh my goodness, they love "London Bridge"
10:17
They love that one.
10:22
- [Theresa] I'm thinking what we get you at Christmas
10:24
this year a CD of nursery rhymes.
10:26
- Yes! - And then that way
10:27
you can practice. - I would love that.
10:30
But where would I play this?
10:33
Where would I play that CD?
10:35
- [Theresa] Maybe I'll get it for you via iTunes
10:38
this way you can put it on your iPad.
10:40
- Oh okay. - Play on your iPad.
10:43
- Do we have a CD player, Eddie?
10:46
- [Eddie] I don't think so.
10:47
- I don't think I got one of those.
10:48
- [Theresa] Isn't that sad?
10:49
That's how far we've come along that CD players are obsolete
10:52
- They are? - No, not really.
10:54
They still have them in cars, I think!
10:56
- Yeah. - Half the people have them
10:58
- Yeah I think I've got one in my car,
10:59
but I have never, and Lord have mercy,
11:02
what have I had that car, eight years?
11:04
I have never figured out how to put a CD in it.
11:08
- [Theresa] You have Sirius, don't you on your?
11:10
- Yeah, yeah. - They probably have
11:12
a nursery rhyme channel, they have everything.
11:16
- If I was not computer illiterate,
11:18
that would be a grand idea.
11:20
- [Theresa] I have a feeling Eddie can figure it out.
11:22
- All right, let's see.
11:24
I need a spatuler.
11:27
And Phillip says to just beat this until mixed.
11:35
All right, we're gonna try to sling some of that
11:38
batter off without slinging it all over us.
11:43
Did I get you, Eddie? - No
11:45
(Paula laughing)
11:46
- Look it went way out there.
11:48
- [Eddie] This is a nice, deep counter.
11:50
- Uh-huh, Eddie.
11:52
But it about got you, it was close.
11:56
All right, so Phillip tells us to add the vanilla.
12:04
- [Theresa] Two teaspoons.
12:05
- Two teaspoons? - Yes ma'am.
12:06
- Thank you, 'cause I've already forgotten.
12:15
So Theresa, Theresas had a sick baby,
12:22
her baby is sick and it's one of those four legged babies.
12:26
(laughs) And do you have your dog home?
12:30
I meant to ask you.
12:31
- [Theresa] I do, I bought him home.
12:32
He has a little slipped disk, bless his little heart.
12:34
- A slipped disk and he's half, he's part.
12:38
- I don't know. - He's a dachshund.
12:40
- He was a rescue. - A rescue.
12:41
- [Theresa] And he's got a little bit of,
12:43
they told me King Charles Cavalier and Chihuahua.
12:48
But he looks like Eddie, would we say
12:50
a Jack Russel with Beagle.
12:53
- [Eddie] Yeah, I was gonna say beagle.
12:54
- He's got a long body. - And little fat legs.
12:57
- And little fat legs and somehow
13:01
that little long body has worn him out.
13:06
- [Theresa] It is a good think I don't have children
13:08
'cause I have driven people nuts about this dog.
13:11
- So Phillip tells us to add in the pecans
13:14
and the cornflakes by hand,
13:17
and so I'm gonna get those mixed up
13:20
and then we're gonna mound 'em up on cookie sheet
13:23
that's lined with parchment paper
13:24
and we're gonna bake 'em at 350 for about 13 minutes.
13:30
Okay!
13:32
Here we go, Phillip!
13:35
Oh my goodness!
13:38
I had two smaller pans and then this large pan
13:42
and (laughs) Phillip, you said in your notes,
13:50
that this was the best cookie in the whole world
13:53
and this is what you wanted your mother to make
13:56
every Christmas, well I'll tell you what,
13:59
old Paula Deens jumpin' on that same bandwagon with ya.
14:03
'Cause I tasted, you see there's a cookie missing
14:05
off this plate right here.
14:09
I had to already taste one and they are out of this world.
14:15
And guess who showed up, look over there.
14:17
Guess who showed up just in time?
14:19
Michael Gruva can smell a cookie baking five miles away.
14:24
(laughs) Can't ya Mike?
14:27
Can't he, Henry?
14:29
(laughs) Papa just loves him a good cookie.
14:34
What do you think about it, Henry?
14:36
- [Henry] It's good.
14:37
- Mmm, isn't it good?
14:40
Mmm, you hadn't tasted it yet, had you Michael?
14:43
- No, I'm waitin'.
14:44
- You want?
14:46
Mmm!
14:50
I will definitely be making these again.
