Y’all, I’ve been searching, searching, and SEARCHING for a delicious vegan coffee cake recipe for a looooooooong time. Fail after fail had me wondering, was it even possible? I mean, my favorite chocolate cake recipe EVER is perfect and moist and everything you want in a good cake and just so happens to be vegan, […]
Last year for Christmas, or was it the year before? yikes, I made an apple pie by a um, quite famous blogger and I was so disappointed in it. I think everyone else was too. Ugh, just ugh, super embarrassing. Kinda wish I could go back in time and make this Buttermilk Crusted Apple Pie […]
This may be Steve’s favorite thing that I make. And even though I only make it during the holiday season to give as gifts to family, friends, and co-workers, it’s certainly a sweet treat that could be made any time of year. In fact, Valentine’s Day is fast upon us, and this would make the […]
Oh. These Gingerbread Cookies. Oh. By the time I share this though, the major cookie baking holidays are over, gingerbread long forgotten, and we’re sailing towards a new year. A new decade! Wow. Ok but do some incredibly serious planning ahead and add these cookies to your list for next year, trust me. Or pffffttt, […]
I’mma keep a’-rollin’ on a cookie theme here and share a Marshall family favorite. We love these Butter Cookies like mad, especially my brother. I’ve entered this recipe in the Chicago Tribune’s annual cookie contest twice now but unfortunately readers must feel these are too boring to vote for. Which is unreasonably ridiculous because there […]
My kids loooooooooooove hot cocoa. Like it’s one of the things they most look forward to every winter. And while they’ve grown up with a mom that makes it the old-school way with a pot of milk on the stove and some cocoa powder, sugar, and just a pinch of salt, recently we’ve been making […]
“Hey babe, did you try these Iced Spiced Soft Molasses Cookies yet?” Tries a cookie. “You’re the devil…..” pause pause chew chew chew, spins a happy spin. “……I don’t know where you come up with this stuff,” Mike blubbers. “Babe, I’m a good researcher.” “How……why…….you….you’re the devil,” as he meanders off in a faux huff […]
Eons ago my folks gifted me a Kitchen-Aid mixer for the holidays, old news, I know. I remember my mom saying to me years prior to that that it’d be a wedding gift. The wedding didn’t happen until years later, ha, so, whew, glad they didn’t wait, haha! Ok so I was thrilled. Of course, […]
Ah. Ah ha. The obligatory Pumpkin Pie. But in this case, this pie, this pie is anything but obligatory. Aaaand I know. Alllllll the other folks out there claiming to have the best recipe, so many….this is the one you should be making though. I am, ahem, not a pumpkin fan. “So wait,” you […]
I must admit, I’m a wee loathe to give this one up. But it’s sooo good, I think the world should enjoy the yumminess that is my Grandma’s Honey Cake. Before we roll along though, did you see Jen’s Lazy Peach Crisp-Cobbler? Holy moly, Mike has shot me fifty+ stinky side eyes of the make-this-now […]
