Sour Cream Cheesecake Bars From: Erin Sent: Monday, February 01, 2016 3:56 AM To: phaedrus@hungrybrowser.com Subject: sour cream dessert I went to Purdue University in the 1980s and in the cafeteria they served a dessert that was cut into bars. It had a graham cracker crust and a pie filling top (cherry and blueberry are most remembered). It's the middle I can't nail down. It was a sour cream/cheese cake type filling. It definitely was not 100% cheesecake and had a lighter feel in the mouth then cheese cake. It was served cold. I have searched your site and anything connected with Purdue University. I have not found anything that fits the bill. Maybe you can help? Thank you, Erin Hello Erin, I did not have any success locating any recipes at all that mentioned Purdue University Cafeteria. There are quite a lot of cheesecake recipes with a graham cracker crust and a sour cream & cream cheese filling and topped with cherry or blueberry pie filling. I imagine that what you had in the Purdue cafeteria was one of these adapted for food service use. See below for some examples. Phaed Baked Cheesecake 2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened 1 can Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk 3 eggs 1/4 c. ReaLemon juice 1 (8 oz.) sour cream 1 deep dish graham cracker crust Cherry or blueberry pie filling (optional) Preheat oven to 300 degrees. In a large mixer bowl, beat cheese until fluffy. Gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Add eggs and ReaLemon juice, mix well. Pour into graham cracker crust. Bake 50-55 minutes or until set. Cool. Chill thoroughly. Spread sour cream on top. Optional: Top with cherry or blueberry pie filling. ------------------------------------------ Cheesecake --For Crust:-- 1/3 c. powdered sugar 18 graham crackers, crushed (1 1/2 c.) 1 stick butter, scant --For Cake:-- 4 eggs 3 lg. pkgs. cream cheese 1 pt. sour cream 1 c. sugar 1 generous tsp. vanilla 1 can blueberry (or cherry) pie filling Combine eggs, sugar, cream cheese and vanilla. Fill pie crust and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Top with the sour cream. Return to oven for 5 minutes. Pour canned pie filling over the top and refrigerate overnight. ------------------------------------------------ Sour Cream Cheesecake (Blender Recipe) Graham cracker crumb crust 2 eggs 1/2 c. sugar 2 tsp. vanilla 1 1/2 c. sour cream 1 lb. soft cream cheese (cut into pieces) 2 tbsp. melted butter --Optional:-- Fruit (cherries, pineapple, blueberries or strawberries) thickened slightly Line a 5 cup pan with a graham cracker crumb crust (uncooked). *NOTE: Blend only 1/2 recipe at a time, as the whole recipe will not fit in a 1 quart blender. In blender put eggs, sugar, vanilla and sour cream. Cover and blend on high speed for 30 seconds. After 15 seconds remove cover and, with motor on, add the pieces of cream cheese and the butter. Pour into prepared pan and bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until set in center. The filling will be still very soft, but it will firm up as the cake cools. Chill thoroughly before serving. May be topped with your choice of pie filling.

Phaed Morrison's Cafeteria Macaroni & Beef From: John Sent: Saturday, January 30, 2016 10:30 AM To: phaedrus@hungrybrowser.com Subject: Morrisons Cafeteria Recipe for Beefy Mac I've been looking for the Morrison's Cafeteria recipe for Beefy Mac and cant find it. Would appreciate if you could do some searching? Really appreciate the help! John Hello John, The recipe below is given in the Morrison’s Kitchen Manual. Remember, this is a cafeteria-size recipe. I am unable to tell you how to cut down the size of the recipe. A #10 can appears to be 13 cups or 104 ounces. I have no idea how many portions are in 5 #200 steam table pans. I tried to find out the capacity of a #200 steam table pan, but they do not appear to be sold that way. They are sold by “full size”, “2/3 size”, “half-size” and then by depth. Phaed Macaroni & Meat Sauce Ingredients: Macaroni 6 lbs Ground Beef 15 lbs Tomatoes 2 #10 cans Tomato Juice 1 #10 can Onions (chopped fine) 4 lbs Peppers (cut fine) 1 lb 8 ozs Garlic 3 cloves Worcestershire 3 ozs Salt & Pepper to taste Chili Powder to taste Method: Saute beef, onions, peppers, and garlic. Add tomatoes and tomato juice and cook until tomatoes are done. Add Worcestershire sauce. Combine with cooked macaroni. Add salt & pepper and chili powder to taste. Place into large steamtable pans. Macaroni & beef may be topped with grated cheese if desired. Approximately 8 ozs cheese to each steam table pan. Yield: 5 #200 steamtable pans.
