GINGERSNAPS and mushrooms give these tender meatballs a special old-world flavor. The recipe was handed down from my husband's family several years ago. I love to cook and found that this was an easy recipe to double and share with friends. The meatballs can also be frozen for a convenient meal at a later time. -Gusty Crum, Dover, Ohio
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 teaspoon butter
3/4 cup soft bread crumbs
1 tablespoon milk
1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
dash pepper
1/2 pound ground beef
1 can (4 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces, undrained
2 gingersnaps, coarsely crushed
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute onion in butter until tender. Transfer to a large bowl; add bread crumbs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into six meatballs; place in a greased 1-qt. baking dish.
2. Preheat oven to 350°. In a small saucepan, combine mushrooms, gingersnap crumbs, water, brown sugar and bouillon. Cook and stir over low heat for 2-3 minutes or until thickened.
