Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - Cubangirl - 06-02-2011 Tonight on Top Chef Masters, the quickfire challenge required using the microwave. For the first time, I thought I could beat any of those amazing chefs. Between that and all the condensed milk discussion in the other thread, I got a craving for one of my favorite cookies- Six Layer Bars. They've got to be the fastest cookies ever. Anyway, I made them today subbing 1 oz of the butter with coconut oil (it worked well). I was curious because of the TC challenge and found the original recipe, (Usually, I make mine from memory with changes for using a 9X13) which had the date on it. Folks, I've been making these in the microwave since 1976. I have never made them in a regular oven. Anyone else surprised at this episode? The elimination challenge was fun too, but then again, I am a geek from way back. Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - cjs - 06-02-2011 Almost didn't open this thread! We won't see it until tonight. Those quick fires are always a challenge. Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - Mare749 - 06-02-2011 I didn't see it, but now I want to go look it up. I might be able to watch it on my computer. If not, I'll have to DVR the re-run. Love those cookie bars, CG! Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - DFen911 - 06-02-2011 Um...six layer bars? Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - Gourmet_Mom - 06-02-2011 I agree....what six layer bars? I'll have to check for the rerun, also. Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - BarbaraS - 06-02-2011 This would be one heck of a challenge! There should be a thread. I do not cook meals in a microwave. Just the dinner time kind and to prep potatoes. Barbara Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - karyn - 06-02-2011 We love those cookie bars as well, but my version has seven layers. I wonder what the difference is... Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - labradors - 06-02-2011 It would be interesting to see if there were anything meal-worthy, other than bacon, fish and some vegetables, that could actually be COOKED - not just prepped or reheated - in the microwave. Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - DFen911 - 06-02-2011 I'd be happy with just the six layer recipe if anyone wants to share Re: Top Chef Masters Microwave Challenge - Gourmet_Mom - 06-02-2011 HERE is Denise being subtle! LOL! I KNEW she had been subtle SOMEWHERE....LOL! I'll be subtle with her again. WHAT six layer bar recipe?!? |
