Made a loaf of Gump Bread today.

Also made some shortbread mincemeat cookies.

Nice!

Where did you get the pullman loaf pan?

No, they're cookies, not a bar and yes they are so good. The recipe use to be on the yellow Nonesuch Mincemeat box years ago. I lost it but found it on the internet at RecipeLand.com. If you don't over cook them, because they cook some more after you take them out of the oven, they'll be moist and chewy, almost melt in your mouth.

Never use the jar mincemeat to make these cookies!

The cookies sound interesting. So do you make your own mincemeat?

You're rolls look good!

I got it on Amazon.

That's a pretty good price compared to $35 at King Arthur.

This was Friday night's dinner. Unless I'm just missing it on the Index, I don't think I've shared this recipe before.

Finnish Meatballs
3/4 Cup breadcrumbs
3/4 C cream or milk
1.5 lbs. ground beef
1 onion, minced
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground allspice
4 Tab. butter
4 Tab. flour
1 1/2 to 2 Cups milk

* Soak breadcrumbs in 3/4 C milk (or cream).
* Blend in beef, onion, egg, salt & allspice. Shape into 1" - 2" meatballs. (I use a cookie scoop for shaping)
* Melt butter in skillet & brown a few meatballs at a time. (don't crowd the pan)
* Remove cooked meatballs and set aside.
* Add flour to pan drippings. Stir & brown over medium heat. Slowly add remaining milk (between 1 1/2 - 2 Cups), stirring constantly to keep smooth.
* Return meatballs to pan. Cover and simmer about 25 minutes.

This is wonderful served over egg noodles.
If you don't want to cook the meatballs in butter in the skillet, you can line a baking pan with foil and bake them.
Makes a lot of meatballs. I use a 2" scoop and get about 26-30 meatballs.
From what I've read Finnish meatballs are different from Swedish meatballs because of the sauce...Finnish have a cream sauce and Swedish have a brown gravy sauce. (I'm not Finnish or Swedish so can't claim the accuracy of that

)

The hard pack that comes in a box?

Yes, I buy the Nonesuch Mincemeat that comes in the small box. It's getting harder and harder to find at the grocery store so when I found it on Amazon I ordered two boxes. The jar mincemeat just isn't the same as what's in the box even though the same company makes it. I guess it's more for pies and not cookies.
