Mrs. Harvey’s White Fruitcake by Salad FoodieLet me say right up front - fruitcake gets a bad rap. My theory is that many object to the darker types, with lots of spice and molasses.

Holiday Magical Bars Made Skinny by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy FoxMany of you know these outrageously delicious bars as Magic Bars or Hello Dollys. I’m calling them, “Magical Bars” because they are just that. In fact, they’re probably the best bars ever created! They’re super rich and decadent.

Creole Rice Pudding by Amos MillerNEVER throw day-old rice away!

This is NOT the junk you have to choose from for dessert ("jello, rice pudding, sherbet") after the regrettable meal at the greasy spoon… |

Apfelkuchen (German Apple Cake) with Almond Apple Cake Variation by Salad FoodieThis recipe takes me back over 50 years when I lived in Germany. My landlady Mathilda would treat me to this pastry and one day I asked her for the recipe. She agreed to show me how to make it, if I taught her how to make American lemon meringue pie!… |

Mon Gateau Au Chocolat by Ali El SafyAn absolutely wonderful cake; most traditionally served without icing. If you're including kids, might want to add your favorite, but I love it the "old school" way! |
