Here’s a scrumptious cake, bursting with fruits and nuts, that became famous back in the late 1970’s. It’s called a dump cake because you just dump all the ingredients into the pan and put it in the oven. No mixers or dishes to clean up and best of all…its so moist and delicious.

Double Crispy Chicken
Who doesn’t like crispy chicken? This juicy, lip smackin’ good chicken is smothered in crushed corn flakes and baked to perfection. I found this recipe on a box of corn flakes years ago and it quickly became a family favorite. You can “make it your own” by adding herbs or spices that your family enjoys.
Death by Chocolate Cake
Are you curious as to why someone would name this cake “Death by Chocolate”? I believe it’s because when you take a bite of this moist, chocolaty cake, you’ll think you died and went to heaven. No one will ever guess this was made with a boxed cake mix.

Creamy Banana Bread
I came across this recipe online a few years ago and have been enjoying it ever since. It freezes well, so I eat one loaf (well…not by myself!) and freeze the other. It has cream cheese in it, so its nice and moist. What I enjoy the most is, there’s a little surprise in the […]
Cream Puffs
Out of this world is all I can say about these luscious cream puffs, filled with delicate Viennese cream, dusted with powdered sugar.
Cream of Brussel Sprout Soup
About a year ago, my good neighbor brought me a shopping bag full of Brussel sprouts. I made blackened sprouts, bacon & maple syrup sprouts, buttered sprouts, and still had plenty. I was afraid they would spoil, so I set out to find more ways to serve these little gems of nutty goodness. It wasn’t […]
Cream Cheese Spritz Cookies
It’s been over 50 years, and I still reminisce of my Mom making these cookies at Christmastime. She would add red food coloring to some of the batter and green to the next batch. Some she baked without color but ALL were decorated by us kids, with colored sugar or little silver candy dots. I […]
