HAPPY'S BUTTER TOFFEE: Snow White Cookbook

I love Toffee, and I am a Toffee Judge for the San Francisco International Chocolate Salons. So many wonderful toffeetiers out there! But maybe you want to make your own? Over the years, I've posted several great recipes for Toffee, but here's one more from the Snow White Cook Book. Happy loves Toffee, too.

And just an FYI, I have multiple 1950s cement statues of the Seven Dwarfs in my Garden -- and two Snow Whites.

Snow White Dairy Recipes: Sneezy's Orange Butter Spread & Sleepy's Honey Butter

Fairies at the Bottom of my Garden? More like Dwarfs!  

Some of you know that I'm a big Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs fan! I have been since I first saw the Disney movie in the theatre as a child. I have two sets--and a few extra--cement Disney dwarfs and Snow Whites in my garden. One set is painted (but peeling), the other is paint-free. I like to think of the dwarfs as working in my garden, tending the plants, complaining, and sleeping. The statues were made in the 1950s. I found them at various estate sales and flea markets. 

Here's a page from the Snow White Dairy Recipes booklet. I love the recipes for Orange Butter Spread and Honey Butter. Sneezy's Orange Butter Spread is great on toast. I use Sleepy's Honey Butter on lots of things from waffles to Dutch Babies to bagels. Yum!

The Booklet came out in 1955 as an advertising premium for the American Dairy Association. The name and logo of the local dairy sponsor was printed or stamped on the back cover, but some books have no markings. It's a slight booklet--5 x 7 with 14 pages. Lots of fun recipes! I see the booklet's at the Flea Market, and, of course, they're for sale online. 

Happy's Butter Toffee

I love Toffee, and I just judged Toffee for the San Francisco International Chocolate Salon. So many wonderful toffeetiers! I've posted several great recipes for Toffee, but here's one more from the Snow White Cook Book. Happy loves Toffee, too.

And just an FYI, I have Six of the Seven Dwarfs in my Garden. These cement statues were made in the 1950s. I'm still looking for Sneezy. Not interested so much in Snow White.

Snow White's Mint Frosted Chocolate Cookies: Vintage Cookbook & Recipe

I collect vintage cookbooks, and Walt Disney's Snow White Dairy Recipe Book, published in 1955, by Walt Disney in association with the American Dairy Association, is certainly vintage. I loved Walt Disney's animated Snow White. I saw the original several times. I even have four of the concrete Disney dwarfs--Dopey, Bashful, Grumpy, and Doc --in my garden. Still keeping my eye open for the rest of Snow White's entourage at Flea Markets and garage sales. But I digress....Here's a great recipe from Snow White for Mint Frosted Chocolate Cookies to feed her 'hungry men'.

SNOW WHITE'S MINT FROSTED CHOCOLATE COOKIES

Here's the recipe for Snow White's Mint Frosted Chocolate Cookies. The recipe calls for tinting the frosting a pale green. If you do this, use an organic coloring.
