***PLEASE NOTE***While we have made these cookies for quite a while and never had an issue with the quality of the finished product
we would suggest baking a small batch at first…if they come out flat, try to chill the batter for a while longer. This really seems to be a key step with this recipe.
Ingredients :

2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
1 1/4 cups white sugar
3 eggs

1 cup milk
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons milk
Directions :
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 8 inch round pans. Mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Ingredients:
2 to 3 tablespoons oil (safflower, coconut, etc)
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 to 3 tablespoons red curry paste
1 large potato, cubed
2 to 3 medium carrots, chopped
1 inch of fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 13.5-ounce can coconut milk
There’s a reason that winter is soup season. When you’re exploring in colder weather, it takes more than a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to tide you over. You want something hot and filling.
This simple vegetarian curry recipe is the answer to just that. It’s easy to make at home and put in a thermos or insulated food canister and take with you wherever your outdoor adventures take you, and you can also add a variety of additional ingredients to it depending on your taste preferences and what you have on hand.
Made with coconut milk, the recipe is vegan-friendly. It’s also functions as a good base to add ingredients to according to your taste preferences and/or what’s lying around in your refrigerator or cooler. Try cubes of tofu or a can of garbanzo beans, or adding other vegetables like broccoli or red bell pepper. Chopped peanuts can make for a great topping too.
To make this dish even more filling, I like to add cooked grains to the curry – like brown rice or quinoa – but you can also eat it on its own. Out for a few days or an overnight? It also can easily be made at camp if you’re in need of a warm and hearty recipe to cook outside.

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
ingredients:
2 cups masa harina, commonly sold as the brand name “maseca”
1 ½ cups water
¼ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. ground cumin
1 cup refried beans
Extra Virgin Olive Oil for hands
Directions:
1. Combine masa harina, salt, cumin and water in a mixing bowl until smooth; knead well.
2. Cover with a towel and let stand for 10 minutes.
3. Lightly oil your hands and form 4 balls with the dough.
4. Pat each ball with your hands and form 4 disks, then with your thumb, shape each one into cups.
5. Fill each cup with ¼ cup of refried beans and seal.
6. Flatten by patting each cup to form disks again, but now with filling inside.
7. Cook each pupusa over a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high, 3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Ingredients:
3 to 4cups finely shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup of Salvadoran cream (or substitute sour cream mixed with ¾ teaspoon salt)
4 cups instant corn masa flour
3½ to 4 cups water
½ cup water to wet hands
Directions:
Preparing the Corn Masa Dough: Place the corn masa flour in a shallow bowl. Mix in the water, 1 cup at a time, kneading by hand for about 10 minutes until the dough is moist and fluffy. If needed, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time. The dough can be prepared the day before if covered and refrigerated.
Making the Pupusas:
Divide the dough into 12 equal small balls. Divide the filling equally for the 12 pupusas. Take the dough ball in the palm of your hand, pushing the center of the ball with your fingers to make a well. Fill each pupusa with the cheese filling. When done, close the top by pushing and pinching the open space together, so that the end result will be a completely filled and sealed dough ball. Wet your hands, press and pat each ball between your palms and flatten into a thin dough round that is about 4 inches in diameter and ¼-inch thick. Make sure the edges are nice and thin but be careful not to press too hard so that the filling does not spill out of the sides.
Cooking the Pupusas:
Heat a non-stick griddle or large heavy skillet over a medium to high flame. Gently place the pupusas on the hot surface and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, frequently turning them over to ensure even cooking. The pupusas are ready when they puff up and turn slightly golden.
