Murder at Turtle Cove

Page 13

by Kathi Daley


  Return mixture to heat. Boil 1 minute more, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and blend in 1 tbs. real butter and 1½ tsp. vanilla.

  While cooling, stir occasionally, before pouring into graham cracker crust.

  Add sliced bananas or coconut to pie shell and cover with mixture and real whipped cream. For added fun try these variations: chocolate cream pie (follow the above recipe except increase sugar to 1½ cups sugar and 3 oz. chocolate) and almond cream pie (follow the above recipe except in place of vanilla use ½ tsp. almond extract and add ½ cup slivered almonds).

  A side note to this story: The first banana cream pie I ever made was for my husband eighteen years ago, after his last radiation treatment. That week alone he and our six-year-old son devoured three pies between them.

  Pecan Turtle Candy

  Submitted by Vivian Shane

  I remember making these with my mom when I was young…and now I make them with my grandkids.

  2 cups pecan halves

  36 unwrapped caramels

  36 chocolate Kisses

  Arrange 5 pecan halves to a cookie sheet to resemble a turtle head and legs. Place a caramel in the center, making 36 turtles. Bake in 325-degree oven for about 5 minutes. Remove from oven and flatten caramels over pecans with a buttered spatula. Place a chocolate Kiss on the top of the caramel. Once the chocolate softens from the warm caramel, spread it around the top.

  Kathi Daley lives with her husband, kids, grandkids, and Bernese mountain dogs in beautiful Lake Tahoe. When she isn’t writing, she likes to read (preferably at the beach or by the fire), cook (preferably something with chocolate or cheese), and garden (planting and planning, not weeding). She also enjoys spending time on the water when she’s not hiking, biking, or snowshoeing the miles of desolate trails surrounding her home.

  Kathi uses the mountain setting in which she lives, along with the animals (wild and domestic) that share her home, as inspiration for her cozy mysteries.

  Kathi is a top 100 mystery writer for Amazon and won the 2014 award for both Best Cozy Mystery Author and Best Cozy Mystery Series.

  She currently writes five series: Zoe Donovan Cozy Mysteries, Whales and Tails Island Mysteries, Sand and Sea Hawaiian Mysteries, Tj Jensen Paradise Lake Mysteries, and Seacliff High Teen Mysteries.
