Chocolate Snack Cake with Coconut Pecan Icing

This recipe came from a real cookbook. One with pages and everything. America’s Best Lost Recipes. My sister worked at Half Price Books a couple years ago and got her hands on this neat cookbook from the Cook’s Country editors. It contains recipes that have been around for a while that have been shared by home [...]

Nilla Wafer Cake

What has happened to me? Why did I make Kraft macaroni and cheese for Ben and a frozen Healthy Choice meal for myself for dinner last week? Because I am a new mommy, and that means I am kind of a mess. To all those mothers of newborns who have it together, I envy and [...]

Coconut & Almond Lemon Curd Bars

Since I am kind of a hermit these days as a new mommy, I have been raiding my pantry in search of things I can cook or bake with instead of going to the grocery store. I found a jar of lemon curd in there and so I made these bars. My mom makes the [...]

Oatmeal, Pecan, Coconut & Butterscotch Cookies

A bag of butterscotch chips in my cupboard greeted me (by falling out onto the counter) the other day and so I took this as a sign to make something with them. I found a recipe for pecan and oatmeal cookies, and so I just added the coconut and butterscotch chips because I have this, [...]

Oatmeal Crispy Bars

One of my favorite cookbooks is The Pastry Queen by Rebecca Rather. I won’t say any more about it except for this: If you don’t own a copy, as I have said before, go buy one…now! I made these quick and easy oatmeal cookie bars this past weekend when our small group from church came over. [...]

Cherry, Almond and Coconut Bread

A fellow 6th grade math teacher gave me a bag of Amish friendship bread starter about a 6 weeks ago and I have been going strong giving away starter and baking bread every ten days since then. The problem now is that I’m running out of friends to give it to! Nothing like realizing you [...]

Carrot Cake Supreme

This recipe came to me through my magical Google reader. I love this thing. I don’t have to go from blog to blog looking for new posts. The new posts come to me! That is how life should be, right? You want it…it arrives. If only everything in life was like this…or would that be [...]

Cherry, Almond & Coconut Oatmeal Cookies

When Ben ate one of these he practically fell over, overtaken by deliciousness. The tart cherries, sweet coconut, crunchy almonds and oats make this an incredible cookie. I have nothing else to say. Enjoy. Cherry, Almond & Coconut Oatmeal Cookies Ingredients 1/2 cup shortening 1/2 cup butter, room temperature 1 cup dark brown sugar 1/2 [...]

Banana Bread Part II: Hawaiian Banana Bread

Banana Bread Part I was posted almost 8 months ago. I get these ideas in my head about how I’ll post a series of recipes in a row devoted to one thing or another. I get very excited about it, but after my first post in a series…I usually fail to continue. This was the [...]

Daring Bakers: Nanaimo Bars

First thing’s first…I cheated. I did not make the graham wafers. I am a terrible person. I promise to make them another time, pinky promise! I just did not have the time. Well, that is only partially true. I could have had the time if I’d actually looked at my January commitments and planned ahead. [...]
