Lemon Pastry Squares (a.k.a Lemon Brownies) - a new take on Lemon Bars! by Salad FoodieThis 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… |

Creole Rice Pudding by Amos MillerNEVER throw day-old rice away! Next time you have that extra-large Chinese take out and you have some of that white rice left over, you have the base of a fabulous rice pudding, New Orleans-style! This is NOT the junk you have to choose from for dessert ("jello, rice pudding, sherbet") after the regrettable meal at the greasy spoon… |

Zucchini Chocolate Cake by Salad FoodieIf there's a most-requested recipe for my year this would be it. Mini-chocolate chips and chopped pecans serve as the "frosting" for this cake. I like to make this a day or night ahead, because I like the mini-chips to harden but if you like them soft and a little gooey, serve the same day. |

Double Butter Bundt Cake by Salad FoodieMoist and rich, this unfrosted Bundt cake is versatile as a stand-alone snack with tea or coffee, or as a pastry base for ice cream or strawberry shortcake. 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… |

Never Fail Chocolate Cake by GlennOne of the easiest, and moistest chocolate cakes you will ever bake. My grandmother, Eva Koehler, called it her "never fail" recipe. It is nearly impossible to screw up. She always topped it with peanut butter icing (which is simply a white icing with peanut butter mixed in to taste). |

Calypso Blondies by Adam JanowskiI so love blondies! Blondies are basically brownies without the cocoa and contain brown sugar instead of white sugar. Brownies seem so “old hat” these days. Few people make them from scratch and you see them everywhere from PTA meetings to school bake sales to church bazaars. Blondies are not seen as often and are really easy to make.… |

Fabulous 3 Cherry Pie by Amos MillerMost folks don't have the luxury of owning a personal cherry orchard, so I modified this recipe using ingredients available at most stores. You'll save the picking and pitting time and end up with a fabulous pie that will thrill even those who say they do not care for cherry pie (I've had it happen). As a native-born… |
