I just received and un-boxed my new Cuisinart DLC-2009CHB Prep 9 9-Cup Food Processor, Brushed Stainless
machine!
This bad boy retails for $270, but it is on sale on Amazon right now for HALF OFF! Plus, you get free shipping!
I’ve dreamed of owning a Cuisinart… now I do.
I have to confess… I am slightly intimidated by it. I’ve never owned a kitchen appliance that came with instructions on how to un-box it. Apparantly, the blades are super sharp, and Cuisinart wants you to be safe!
Just before Christmas, I used our old food processor to make homemade mounds bars. Apparently, the poor motor was not built for that, which I learned when a flame leaped from the motor and our kitchen filled with smoke. Oops.
So, I browsed and browsed food processors. I asked forum buddies. I looked at some in the stores. I had my heart set on Cuisinart, but no way could I spend $270 on a food processor!
Thankfully, I didn’t have to!
Now I can make Homemade Mounds Bars again. I’ll share that recipe in another post!
Ooh, I was looking for recommendations for a new food processor, thanks for this!
Also: homemade mounds bars. NOMNOMNOM
Yes please do leave that recipe somewhere because it sounds YUMMY! Take a picture when you get them done I would love to see them. Now I’m hungry.
Miranda- I used it this afternoon to refine the coconut for homemade mounds bars. I think I’m in love now!
Ellie- I will definitely share pictures and the recipe soon. The bars are in the freezer setting up, and just need to be dipped. Yum.
I can’t wait for the recipe!
