So easy a cave man could make it

PINEAPPLE CREAM CHEESE PIE

1 can crushed pineapple
1 c. sugar
8 oz. cream cheese
1 lg. pkg instant vanilla pudding
2 graham cracker crust

Heat pineapple with juice and sugar together. Add cream cheese. Stir until smooth and add pudding. Mix well and set aside to cool. Place in graham cracker crust. You can put whipped topping on if you like. You can also put this in between layers of cake. This is so good that I make it every Easter.

3 cups confectioners' sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup dry milk powder
1/2 cup white corn syrup

Mix all ingredients together.
Place cocoa powder and butter in 4-cup glass measuring cup with a handle. Microwave, uncovered, at high power for at least 1 minute, watch carefully not to burn-stirring once during cooking time, until cocoa is melted. Stir in corn syrup and vanilla.
Return to microwave and cook on high power for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and mix in 2 cups powdered sugar. Add the instant milk powder and stir thoroughly, then add the vanilla.
Turn mixture onto waxed paper that has been sprinkled with the rest of the powdered sugar.( Knead like you would for bread). Knead candy until stiff, adding as much powdered sugar as necessary to form a stiff but pliable dough.
Divide candy into four parts, then roll each part into pencil-size strips. Cut each strip into 10 pieces and wrap in waxed paper. You may need to refrigerate the candy to set.

GLUTEN FREE CHICKEN

1 chicken jointed into 8 pieces, I usually use approximately 2 pounds of chicken breasts or thighs.

MARINADE

the lemon zest and juice from one lemon

1 head of garlic, peeled, but the cloves should be left whole

crushed seeds from 10 green cardamom pods, I usually use 1 tsp of ground cardamom

1 tsp coriander seeds, I usually crush these a little bit

1/2 tsp chili flakes, I like to use 1 tsp

1/2 tsp ground turmeric

50 ml olive oil, I use 6 tbls olive oil

Mix the marinade ingredients together and combine with the chicken.
Sprinkle some salt on the chicken before cooking.
Either cook the chicken with the marinade for approximately 1 hour at 150 C/300F, or leave it to sit with the marinade in the fridge for a couple of hours and then cook it without the marinade for 25 minutes at 250 C/500F.
