Oatmeal Lovers' Sugar Cookies

Oatmeal Lovers' Sugar Cookies by Salad Foodie

Oatmeal is the predominant ingredient in this sugar cookie recipe and that might seem a little bizarre. But don't expect your typical oatmeal cookies here! These have a far different texture and taste. Be sure to use quick oats rather than old fashioned. Bake up a batch and make a platter to share with your Valentines!

Chocolate Glazed Peanut Butter Bars

Chocolate Glazed Peanut Butter Bars by Salad Foodie

Sweet and chewy bars are a cinch to make and will please most all of your hungry nibblers! The original recipe used some butterscotch chips in the glaze along with chocolate chips, but you can use all chocolate chips if you wish - the chocolate lovers in your home will approve!

Whip Cream Cake

Whip Cream Cake by Salad Foodie

This vintage recipe was mom's special occasion cake - sublime and delicate. Choose any flavor of frosting. I like to use a buttercream vanilla or chocolate but it depends on the occasion. Photos show a buttercream chocolate frosted and a single layer buttercream vanilla Easter cake. Now that's one the Easter bunny doesn't hide!.

I stayed very close to the original and glad it turned out so well. Kudos to Mike at his betterbaking.com blog for this toothsome…

Southern Coconut Cake

Southern Coconut Cake by Salad Foodie

Rose Levy Branbaum's "Heavenly Cakes" (2009) was the inspiration for trying something new for our springtime desserts. The cake batter was made from her Southern Coconut Cake recipe, but I used a traditional buttercream frosting. Everyone agreed the cake was just like Rose said - heavenly!

The “double butter” name comes from butter as the shortening, along with buttermilk as the liquid (see NOTE below for using regular milk instead.) The cake travels well to…

Swedish Apple Pie

Swedish Apple Pie by Salad Foodie

"Easy as pie" as the saying goes. But this recipe is really EASIER than pie! Sliced Granny Smith apples go in the pie dish first, followed by a quick and simple topping. The topping settles down around the apples during baking and becomes lightly crisp - so good! Based on The Apple Lover's Cookbook by Amy Traverso.
