Muffins are great take along breakfasts and I’m always willing to try something new. This time I wanted to use up some Starbucks hot cocoa mix we bought at Christmastime. Instead of letting the cocoa go to waste, I thought I would try and create a muffin recipe using it as an ingredient. I’m glad I did, these chocolate chip Read More »

Every single person in this house loves soft pretzels. Soft, warm bread with a dark golden crust, lightly crusted with salt, who could resist? I’m a ham and cheese lover, as is my husband. To combine a soft pretzel and a ham and cheese sandwich just sounded too good to be true. It’s a sandwich and a pretzel all rolled Read More »

This beautiful breakfast danish is not only impressive looking, but it tastes amazing and makes enough for a couple of breakfasts or to give one to a friend. While the end result looks difficult it’s really not, and actually it’s quite fun once you get started! Admittedly I killed the yeast in my first attempt causing failure. I was a Read More »

Four batches of muffins. That’s what it took to perfect this dreamy cherry muffin recipe. I’m really happy with the results of this last batch. You won’t find any chunks of fruit in these, even though I love them that way. I can’t get any of my kids or my husband to eat anything with chunky fruit, so these fruity Read More »

Muffins are one of my favorite grab and go type breakfasts. We have four teenagers in this house, so muffins are a big hit and are easy for them to take on the way to school in the morning. I have had plum cake, but never plum muffins, so when I found this cinnamon sugar crusted treat I knew it Read More »

Cold weather means stew, soup, casseroles, and comfort food. Everyone has a “go to” stew recipe, but I’m always willing to try something different. I was browsing Pinterest and came across a tasty looking stew recipe which I quickly saved to my Pinterest dinner board. Recently I can back to that recipe and was so glad that I did as Read More »

My mother in law was in town for Thanksgiving. I love having her here, she’s like a second mom to me, but she’s also a great audience as far as my cooking goes. She loves to watch me cook, bake and craft and is always complimentary, consequently swelling my head while she’s here. She’s quite funny, calling her sister every Read More »

I have a favorite recipe for rolls. I’ve made regular dinner rolls from it and the original pull apart dinner rolls which are present at every holiday dinner table in this house. Because it’s such a great recipe, whenever I come across a new idea for rolls, I always use my tried and true favorite. This new favorite I’m calling Read More »

There are two types of cornbread lovers: sweet and savory. I’m on the sweet cornbread wagon. I won’t pretend to know if those that live in the south prefer one over the other, nor will I presume that people on the east coast or west coast have a preference. What I do know is as a child growing up in Read More »

As you may already know, I have another blog called The Secret Recipe Club. There are a lot of members and it keeps me very busy, but it’s a lot of fun too. My biggest thing with the club was I never wanted anyone to get left out. That’s an awful feeling, no one ever wants to be left out. Read More »
