Sports Cynts Show for February 19, 2010
Today’s show was great! The main topic was Tiger Woods and his press conference. I don’t think Tiger owed anyone an apology except his family and maybe his sponsors. No matter what he said or how he was going to do the press conference, it was going to be analyzed, scrutinized, over analyzed and over scrutinized. My being a fan of his has nothing to do with his personal life, only what he does on the golf course.
I also gave my opinion on the Winter Olympic Games. Who came up with Curling and why is it a sport, not to mention an Olympic Sport? I don’t watch much of the Olympics, but I do keep up with the medal count. As of show time, the U.S. was ahead of all other nations in total number of medals (18) and in each medal!
Stars not participating in the NBA Slam Dunk Competition made it boring and the upcoming NFL Combine and Draft were other subjects of the show.
The appetizer for today was Chicken Pockets and today’s dessert was Apple Pockets. The recipes are below.
Chicken Pockets
4 servings
3 oz softened cream cheese
2 tablespoons milk
¼ teaspoon salt
Dash black pepper
2 cups cooked and diced chicken
2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
1 8-ounce tube refrigerated crescent rolls
2 tablespoons melted butter
Mixing bowl
Parchment paper
Baking sheet
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place a sheet of parchment paper on the baking sheet.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and milk. Stir in the salt, pepper and green onions. Add the chicken and mix thoroughly.
Unroll the crescent rolls and place them on the parchment-covered baking sheet, but don’t separate the dough into the crescent roll triangles. Press the dotted seams between each crescent roll until the line splitting the crescent rolls is not visible.
Place ¼ of the mix in the center of each rectangle and bring the corners up to the center. Press the seams to seal.
Brush the top of the pockets with the melted butter. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes until the pockets are brown.
Apple Pockets
16 servings
4 apples - peeled, cored and chopped
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
2 packages Pillsbury refrigerated rolled pie crust – 4 pie crusts
2 tablespoons melted butter (optional)
Cinnamon-sugar (optional)
Mixing bowl
Parchment paper
Baking Sheet
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and cover the baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the apples in a large bowl and toss with the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.\
Unroll and divide each pie crust into quarters. Place an even amount of the apple mixture in each quarter. Fold the corners and sides up until completely sealed. Make a small slit in each pocket for a steam vent. (Optional – Brush the tops of the pockets with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar).
Bake in the oven for 30 minutes until golden brown.
Please give me your feedback on the show and the recipes and join us next week for more sports and more food!

Sports Cynts Show for January 29, 2010
We had a great show today. We discussed the NFL Conference Championships, the Pro Bowl Game, the NFL overtime and the upcoming NBA All-Star Game. We also baked Chris Bars and Snug Snacks to enjoy.
Today’s discussions: Will Brett Favre come back next year? I’ll wait and find out once next season starts. Will Kurt Warner retire? Probably, since he’s holding a press conference (he announced his retirement Friday afternoon) I like the Pro Bowl game and I think the players who were voted in should be made to play and if they don’t want to play, then they should at least be required to attend. Bring back the skills competitions, the strongest and fasted man competitions and the obstacle course from Superstars! Change the overtime. Make it an extra quarter – not a full15 minutes – 8 minutes. Give each team the opportunity to get the ball. Right now it’s basically the team that wins the coin toss will win, unless they don’t get good field position for some reason. The NBA All Star game will be played in Cowboy Stadium on Valentine’s Day. There are 6 first time players on the roster. I think LeBron should participate in the Slam Dunk competition since he hasn’t done it before. I’m looking forward to the weekend’s festivities.
Here are the recipes for the appetizer and dessert we prepared today.
Snug Snacks
Ingredients:
1 12-ounce package cooked sausage or cooked hot dogs
1 8-ounce sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
Dipping sauce of your choice - mustard, bbq sauce, ketchup
Parchment paper
Baking sheet
Preheat oven to 400° F.
Cut the sausages/hot dogs in quarters lengthwise, then in half crosswise.
Cut the puff pastry into strips 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. Roll the hot dog/sausage pieces in the pastry strips.
Place on the parchment lined baking sheet and bake 15 - 20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
Serve with your choice of condiments for dipping.
Chris Bars
Ingredients:
1 ½ cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
1 - 12 oz pkg of Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
2 - 12 oz pkg of Nestle’s Milk Chocolate Chips
1 - 14 oz can Eagle Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/2 stick of Butter
1 - 8 oz pkg of Heath Toffee Chips (opt.)
1 cup pecans (opt.)
1 glass 9 x 13 casserole dish
Parchment or aluminum foil paper
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
Line the bottom and sides of the casserole dish with the parchment or foil paper. Put the butter in the lined dish and place in the oven until the butter is melted.
Spread the graham cracker crumbs in the bottom of the dish, mixing them in with the butter until they completely cover the bottom of the dish.
Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the graham cracker crumbs completely covering them. Spread the chocolate and peanut butter chips over the condensed milk pressing down slightly to settle the chips into the condensed milk. If you choose to use them, sprinkle the pecans then the toffee chips on top.
Place in the dish in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the toffee is melted or the condensed milk begins to bubble through the chips and brown slightly. Do not overbake or the graham cracker crust will burn.
Remove from the oven and cool for 5 to 7 minutes then cut through the bars to make them easier to cut when completely cooled.
Once the bars are completely cooled, cut and store in an airtight container.
You can also use white chips and butterscotch chips or your choice of nuts as the toppings.
Thank you for joining us!
