Quick Casseroles: Pasta, Kale and Beef

French Breakfast Puffs:Little Puffs of Yum

I have looked at these a number of times in one of my vintage cookbooks and just passed over them..They seemed too simple, too average, too mediocre. A little flour, a few eggs..some butter…yadda yadda yadda.

Lemon snaps are an easy old fashioned cookie that you really don’t hear much about anymore, and that is a pity.  They are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and lemony sweet throughout.  There is just nothing that compares with them for an old fashioned treat…unless it is gingersnaps…or molasses cookies…or…

Mexican Wedding Cookies

Mexican Wedding Cakes are not cakes at all. They are somewhat like a short bread cookie but not. And sometimes they are called Mexican Wedding Cookies.
Are you confused?
They are a delicate cookie that has a delicate, yet definitely there flavor..vanilla, butter…nuts…

There are many kinds of monkey bread, bubble loaf, or pull-apart bread as it is often called. Most of them start with canned biscuit dough and are a sweet treat for breakfast.

Pineapple Upside Down Cake: A Classic Recipe
