This refreshing jello mold reminds me of the orange ice cream bars I enjoyed as a little girl. Bursting with orange flavor, it’s fluffy and filled with luscious slices of mandarin oranges.

Oatmeal Carmelites
This buttery, chewy, nutty and downright delicious bar cookie is one of the best bar cookies I have ever eaten. With just the right amount of chocolate and caramel, it’s sure to please even the fussiest of cookie critics!
Mom’s Lime Jello Mold
Hands down, this is my absolute favorite jello mold and the recipe was my Mom’s. I don’t have many of her original recipes as she died when I was a teenager and most of her recipes were not written down. But luckily, I have this treasure and I’m thrilled to share it with you. There’s […]
Mexican Wedding Cookies
This is probably one of the first recipes I put in my recipe collection, probably around 56 years ago. I had found it while looking through my mother’s loose recipes and I copied it to put in my “hope chest”. I usually make these at Christmas time, when I do major cookie bakes. This is […]
Brownies (Chewy)
I love, love, love brownies. I guess you can tell that, as this is one of 3 different brownie recipes on my site. I just can’t pick a favorite! This recipe was very recently discovered on the inside of a Baker’s chocolate box. Of course, I just HAD to try it. I must admit, they […]
Lemon Ricotta Cookies
These lemon cookies simply melt in your mouth. They have a tender, cake like texture. The lemon icing, laced with fresh lemon zest , puts this cookie “over the top”.
Lemon Meringue Pie
Talk about lemony goodness, this pie has it. A tart filling, laced with just the right amount of sweetness, in a classic crust, topped with a generous amount of meringue, toasted to a golden perfection.
Lemon Bars
This is the recipe that turned me into a lemon bar lover. I had a “girls only” get together and my old friend Bonnie brought these bars. Talk about heavenly…a perfectly balanced combo of tart, yet sweet lemony goodness. The crust is absolutely amazing.
Kolacky
Oh the memories I have of my mother making these cookies. There were 10 kids in the family, so when she would make these, as they were coming out of the oven, she would have to ration them to one cookie for each child. Then she’d pack them away until Christmas Eve when the relatives […]
Knudson Coffee Cake
One of my old customers, Esther, shared this recipe with me over 30 years ago. It is such a wonderful cake, made in a tube pan. Your friends and family will be impressed when you serve this buttery cake.
