RECIPE TIPS

The simple recipes that follow include some old Cuisinart favorites as well as some creative combinations that are sure to please your friends and family. Thanks to the superior ice crushing power of the SmartPower¨ 7-Speed Electronic Blender, youÕll also be able to make

Chopping Nuts

Pulse cup of nuts (shells removed) on chop 4 to 5 times. Turn blender off; scrape blender jar with spatula. Turn blender on and pulse on Chop 2 to 3 times. Turn blender off. Pulse fewer times for more coarsely chopped results. For best results, process no more than 1 cup at a time.

For best results, use day old bread (drier bread works best). Break bread slices into inch pieces, and process no more than 1 cup of pieces at

a time on mix for 5 to 10 seconds. Crackers and cookies should also be broken into inch pieces; process 1 cup at a time on Mix for 10 to 15 sec- onds. Turn blender off.

Cut strips in half. Add strips and 1 teaspoon sugar (from recipe) to the blender jar. Blend on Liquefy for 15 to 20 seconds. Turn blender off.
