Museum staff searched the archives cook book collection to provide a couple of recipes for the holidays. Both are from a book of “Personal Recipes” likely produced in the late 1950s as a fund raiser by the Ladies Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion Branch 17, Courtenay.
For those who want a twist on classic holiday fare, try a taste of Boiled Fruit Cake from Mrs. N.M. Pimlott. And for those cooks who like a pared down shopping list, why not this 2 ingredient Peanut Butter Candy from Evelyn Burns. Enjoy!
