This recipe originally was posted on "Witty in the City" and went viral on Pinterest. It was adapted from the "I Love Trader Joe's" cookbook. I can see why this recipe is popular, because it's absolutely delicious! My husband, and adult son, love this dish and I've made it several times. The sauce is a savory/sweet blend of Dijon…

Aunt Esther's Sugar Cookies by Foodiewife

I have no idea who Aunt Esther is/was, but I'd sure like to thank her for this recipe. The first time I tasted these, I asked my friend if they'd share the recipe-- and they did! I've made many delicious sugar cookie recipes, but this one is now ranked #1 favorite cookie of all time-- by my family and friends. When cooked, they are…

Pressure Cooker Baby Back Ribs

Pressure Cooker Baby Back Ribs by Foodiewife

Seriously. Tender, falling off-the-bone ribs in 15 minutes, when you use a pressure cooker -- plus an extra ten minutes to make the most delicious "scratch" BBQ sauce you've ever tasted. Yes, it's true. I did it in my pressure cooker. BUT, you can adapt this to a slow cooker, only it will take you 6-8 hours to achieve what I did in 15…

Root Beer Baked Beans with bacon

Root Beer Baked Beans with bacon by Foodiewife

From "Cuisine At Home Magazine" With smoky bacon, sweet root beer, and a buttery bread crumb topping, everyone’s sure to enjoy these appetizing baked beans. I recently made these beans, only I realized (too late) that I didn't have root beer extract. I continued on, and skipped the buttery bread crumbs, too. Still, these beans were a…

Raspberry Buttermilk Cake

Raspberry Buttermilk Cake by Foodiewife

This cake recipe comes from Gourmet Magazine and is very simple to make. The batter is so good, that I greedily licked the batter spoon. You can exchange raspberries for kind of berries, or try fresh peaches or apricots. This is very addicting and perfect to make for unexpected company.

This cake recipe is perfect to make for a potluck party. It looks pretty, and it tastes even better than it looks. Pineapple Upside Cake is such a classic dessert, with beautiful rings of pineapple that is caramelized with butter and brown sugar and decorated with maraschino cherries. I am a scratch cake baker, as a general rule.…

British Flapjack Cookies

British Flapjack Cookies by Foodiewife

I saw this recipe in Bon Appetit, March 2010 and written by Molly Wizenberg. I was lucky enough to find Golden syrup at my local World Market. I have a couple of tips on how to make these very simply... well, what are they? Cookies? Breakfast snacks? Not to be confused with the pancake, this delicious bar cookie is made from oats…

This is a pumpkin lover's perfect pancake. The batter takes less than 5 minutes to make, and the streusel takes another 5 minutes. While the batter is puffing into perfect pancakes, with a perfect balance of fall spices, streusel is sprinkled on top. These pancakes have a blend of both unbleached and whole wheat flour. The pancakes…
