I was going through some old cookbooks that I am listing on eBay and came across this recipe on how to take Knox Gelatine and mix it with butter to make a spread. It takes a quarter pound of butter and makes a half pound of spread. I thought it was interesting and thought I would post it for others. Enjoy!
As I said I came across a Knox Gelatine recipe book from way back. I found it interesting that since I knew that gelatin was good for nails and hair that there were many other thing it was good for also.
I am listing some of the items discussed in the cookbook and I will give you a new recipe that will help stretch the family budget in a healthy way. As a child I remember helping my mother make gelatin recipes and always had fun doing it. They are great make ahead meals for scheduling in busy days.
