Uncle Billys Holiday Treat Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the pineapple in half lengthwise, leaving the greens attached. Use a paring knife to cut away the fruit and core from both halves of the pineapple, leaving a thin border of fruit intact to make 2 pineapple boats. Cut the fruit into chunks and set aside. Place the pineapple boats in the freezer until you are ready to serve.
• Peel the banana and cut into chunks. Place the pineapple and banana chunks on a parchment-lined baking sheet or dish and freeze until frozen, about 4 hours.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the frozen fruit and cream of coconut. Pulse until the mixture forms a thick paste, about 3 minutes. Gradually drizzle in 1/2 cup water, pulsing, until the consistency of soft serve is reached.
• Scoop the soft serve into the frozen pineapple halves and garnish each with maraschino cherries and a small bottle of rum if desired. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Mix dry ingredients, including garlic, together in a medium bowl. Add canola oil and mix until blended. Mix egg and water in a separate small bowl and then add to flour mixture. Using an electric mixture with a dough hook attachment, mix dough until smooth and elastic. Roll dough out onto a board that is lightly dusted with cornmeal. Cut dough into 1 by 4-inch strips and transfer to a sheet pan. Baste with BBQ sauce and bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool on a rack. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
• Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until blended. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
