Actually, the cake was "invented" by Hellmann's because of food shortages during the war. It used Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise. But, Kraft's Foods was not to be upstaged, so they did their own recipe and… |

Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick! by Salad FoodieI haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen. |
