Cornbread WafflesNecessity is the mother of invention. In this instance I am going into the second month of home remodeling life without a kitchen. We either eat cereal, eat out or use small kitchen appliances to cook or heat up food. When given a container of homemade chili recently, I decided to try cooking my favorite cornbread recipe in the… |

Rhubarb Crumble (crunch, crisp or whatever!)An old-fashioned dessert that has endless appeal. Whether you call it a crumble, crunch or a crisp - it is delish! Pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and praise will abound. This is my tweaked version of several from the Internet. There are all so many out there, but I think you‘ll like the ease of making… |

Coconut Pecan CookiesA search on the Internet for a coconut pecan cookie recipe brought a few candidates forward and fortunately the first I tested was a slam-dunk. This is chewy, somewhat crunchy and divinely coconutty. 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 CakeRose 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! I have simplified some of the steps.… |

Coconut KissesThink macaroon with a chocolate kiss - a match made in heaven. These will disappear fast on your valentine cookie tray. Be sure to have chocolate kisses unwrapped and ready to pop onto cookie tops when removed from oven. |

Lemon Pastry Squares (a.k.a Lemon Brownies) - a new take on Lemon Bars!This recipe has been circulating around the Internet as “Lemon Brownies”, but I think it deserves a more descriptive name. These treats are a delicacy and are more “dainty” than brownies. They have no chocolate, are not brown, and NOT as sweet nor… |

Southern Corn BreadI was hesitant to try this because it was different than any corn bread I’ve ever made. The proportion of corn meal to flour for one, and then hardly any sugar. Now having made it I’ve decided southerners have it all right about corn bread, and I prefer this to the usual sweet variety. I like to use one third of the cornmeal as… |

THE Bacardi Rum Cake.....adjusted for today's box cake mixesSeveral years ago Bacardi’s Rum Cake recipe used an 18 ½ ounce cake mix and box of instant vanilla pudding mix. Not long after that box cake mixes were developed with “pudding in the mix” which now are known as “super moist” or “deliciously moist.”… |

Roasted Sweet Potatoes & Apples in Honey-Bourbon SauceI am always looking for new ways to present the omnipresent sweet potato. This recipe is pure Southland, with it praliney, bourbon-touched, subtly-spiced luciousness. There is a good amount of prep time for this, but do not be frightened away - you can get the sweet potato/apple part rolling a day before you need to serve it.… |
