Apples I didn’t want to go to waste. What a great choice if I do say so! The ingredients list is minimal … producing this beautiful and tasty cake. Oh yeah, have it for breakfast! Heavy with apples surrounded by a slightly sweet vanilla cake. Try it today!
A spicy recipe inspired by Fannie Farmer, and with my conversion whips up quickly. Just don’t get ahead of yourself like I did here and ice a too warm cake. I recommend two 8 inch round cake pans for this recipe instead of the two 8 inch by 4 inch loaf I used here. Yes, I sliced each layer to increase to a four layer cake. The frosting is not exactly the traditional for this cake. I just simply combined a butter cream frosting with a cream cheese. Our family isn’t big on a strong cream cheese taste for this carrot cake.
The slices were served and no one was the wiser!
Perfectly Delicious

These are the best! But don’t take my word for it … Bake them up today! Chewy Buttery Good … not too flat, not too thick, just right. I’m using the new Nestle Dark Chocolate Morsels. Make sure you try this recipe with your favorite chocolate chips. This way you’ll be able to taste test the best chocolate chip oatmeal cookies you ever ate. Seriously Good! Just can’t say it enough and I’m a chocolate chip cookie aficionado. If you’re into chocolate chip cookies with a touch of oatmeal and like the chewy variety these are for you!
Melt in your mouth! The perfect cookie for tea or coffee. This recipe is flexible. Add your favorite nuts or lemon chips (or here) to give it a little extra if you are into it, but it really doesn’t need more than the four basic ingredients to be delicious! Drizzle a glaze over the top for a designer look or simply swirl the warm cookie in a little lemon icing. Sometimes simple is the best!

Moist with little oil. The fresh applesauce does the trick. If you love spices and pecans you’ll love this.
Lemon is my flavor of choice for the last weeks. It really isn’t random. I have a houseguest who’s into lemon cakes, breads and cookies. And I love to see someone enjoy a favorite. This recipe is a revision of James Beard’s Huckleberry Cake. First, huckleberries are hard to find and I’ve substituted blueberries, a similar berry. But most importantly I’ve added a big lemon taste!
Perfect for your Valentine who’s into lemon. Typically a double layered cake but my guy likes a loaf cake he can whittle on all day. The batter is plentiful and for certain will overflow a standard loaf pan. Just make a couple of large cup cakes in addition. All this changes bake times. We are into the one layer of icing and love the look as it melts down the sides of the warm cake. It’s a homey comfort food recipe that leaves the kitchen smelling delicious, and palates pleasantly satisfied with the taste and flavor.
My delicious experience with Magnolia Table next. This was a near disaster … WARNING: Use of a flared 9 by 5 inch loaf pan may cause baking overflow. Yep, my glaze is more like a frosting (I added a bit of butter. shh). I was gifted Magnolia Table and have really enjoyed trying the recipes. I have to admit it’s just plain delicious to flip through the pages. I love the Joanna Gaines style.
Others have tried this recipe and posted. We all agree it’s amazingly delicious. I have included a few posts so you can see others’ outcome, (the second includes the full recipe), here & here. The bread does tend to have a slight indentation on top when baked. My overflow experience … I knew better. When I filled the bread pan I could tell the batter was too much for the size. I did hold back but apparently not enough. And the glaze included in the recipe, I opted out. Just wanted something a little more like frosting.
Great cookies for the Holidays. Chocolatey and not too sweet. Delicious quick recipe with few ingredients. Easy to put together for unexpected guests. Chocolate shortbread keeps well but let me warn you, they’ll go fast. You can also personalize by adding your favorite nuts, candy bits or mini chips. Amazing without any addition, my preference. The cocoa used makes a difference. So, use a cocoa product you love. No skimping is my thought.
We really enjoy putting together these favorites any time of year. Two Sweet and Sour Brisket recipes, one is more traditional, recipe is here. For the other just Read More. The Latke recipe is amazingly simple and the recipe follows along too with the Donuts. Just a heads up about the donuts … These delicious nuggets are best fresh … certainly prepare the day of but if possible just before serving. As for the Challah, Will makes it the best and here is the recipe.
