Grocery shopping every 10-14 days has my pantry a bit limited. The ingredients in this pound cake come straight from your pantry … ingredients generally we always have. It’s a quick whip up. After baked, dress it up with fresh fruit, or prepared pie filling, whipped cream, or preserves, mascarpone or a combination. Here’s a two ingredient recipe for Mascarpone. It’s all deliciously foolproof!
With the right tools this whips up so fast you’ll be making bread every week. Yes, it’s really true … in less than an hour. The texture of the bread is perfect. And taste?! Slightly sweet with the moistness you want in a bread. There are no disappointments here. You’ll need a bread pot and the Emile Henry product doesn’t disappoint. I actually used my electric mixer with a bread hook … Something I almost never do when making bread. With this recipe I believe you can’t go without it for the best and easiest results.
Let’s get started with this easy bread recipe with the help of the Emile Henry people.
With a bread hook mixer this recipe speeds along. Prep time, 15 minutes and bake for 45. Amazing! The secret is this baking pot. No, I’m not advertising. It just is. 
Add this to your baking essentials if you’re into homemade yeast bread in no time. I haven’t shopped other brands but bet they’re out there. If you are home bound this can be ordered on line with Amazon too. (burgundy or charcoal) Need ingredients? You can’t go wrong with King Arthur.
Get ingredients and pot ready. Recipe coming next!
Look like oatmeal cookies but no! Are you looking for a cookie recipe with few ingredients? Something you can bake when the cupboards are bare! I love this Fannie Farmer knockoff for its simplicity. The taste is snickerdoodlish with packed goodness of raisins and nuts. Change it up with dried cranberries or chocolate chips if you prefer.
Cutting back can still involve pasta. At least that’s what we think! When weight starts to hang on it’s time for action, but there’s no giving up Pasta Sunday’s.
Still in search of the best Malted Milk Chocolate Cupcakes and yet to find a clear malted taste. Even after the addition of malted milk powder the chocolate smothers the taste in so many recipes. So, I refer you to this cupcake recipe. I find has the best malted taste so far. For the frosting … yes, adding malted milk powder does give it a more malt taste. Just add a bit of malted milk powder to your chocolate frosting recipe … hold up on some of the cocoa. Give it a taste test (add more malted if needed) until it has the flavor you’re after. Here’s the frosting recipe I used and just added the malted milk powder to taste. (You will need to add more liquid for the frosting consistency.) Enjoy!
Pasta Sunday + Super Bowl= Fried Ravioli. You still have time and it’s easy. Grab your favorite ravioli, cook according to directions Drain and you’re ready. (This recipe was tried without precooking the ravioli and I noticed an appreciable difference but others didn’t.)
One skillet spaghetti recipe and you have dinner for 6 hearty eaters in 30 minutes! Hey, this is a great Super Bowl dish. It tastes great, and who doesn’t like spaghetti! And another plus, it’s not messy to serve … just spoon it up.
When you’re eating late in the day and want something to take the chill away but not leave you feeling heavy and stuffed, try this! So much taste and easily changes up to vegan. Just substitute vegetable both and tofu. Easy! Makes up in minutes!
