Directions
Chicken and Dumplings Like Cracker Barrel’s,This tastes just like Cracker Barrel’s, if you have ever tried it. From book “Old Fashioned Country Cooking” found at Cracker Barrel.,The only changes I made were 1.) Doubling the dumpling recipe, since my daughter loves them and 2.) Adding a slurry of 3/4 cup cold milk and 2 Tbsp corn starch at the end and simmering for 2 minutes, since CB’s recipe has a slightly creamy sauce. It turned out great!,This was very tasty and pretty close to CB’s version!
