Cheesecake with homemade Dulce De Leche SauceThese are amazing! My husband LOVES cheesecake. He said he believes this is the best cheesecake he has ever had! The recipe I found on this site called for using purchased Dulce de Leche sauce. I decided to make my own. I thought it looked sort of fun. This sauce is AWESOME! This dessert would be great for the Super Bowl, or… |

Pumpkin CheesecakeThis recipe is from my Good housekeeping cookbook. It is the best pumpkin cheesecake I have ever had! So...I just had to share it. It is a MUST TRY! The crust calls for graham crackers, but the second time I made it I used gingersnaps. I didn't get to eat much of it, because I dropped it in the oven, but I think it would have been… |

Sand Art Bars (Brownie Mix in a Jar: Holiday Gift Idea!)This is one of the “bars in jars” recipes so popular a few years ago, and every so often during the holidays I resurrect it because it makes such a nice handmade gift, with WOW factor. The layered ingredients vary by color and texture and remind me of Native American sand painting and Arizona. Get an assembly line going and make… |

Cranberry Pudding DessertThis dessert is one that isn't too sweet, the nice balance between the tartness of the cranberries and the nice even sweetness of the vanilla sauce is like heaven - and it's a great way to use the cranberries that might be hanging around in the fridge after the holidays! |

Pecan TassiesMiniature pecan pies pretty much sums up the flavor but these are even better. I don’t care for pecan pie as it is too sweet for me. However this portion controlled delicate golden brown crust filled with a gooey pecan filling is just right. |

Graham Cracker Snowballs (a no-cook confection)An easy confection ~ not a cookie, not a candy, but a cross somewhere between. No cooking, no baking. Easy to make though a little messy. Enlist the kids to help roll them and they'll have a fun activity to share in the kitchen with you. A variation recipe “S’more Snowballs” uses graham crackers, marshmallows, mini chocolate chips… |

German Chocolate CookiesThis recipe from the BHG.com website was developed as a healthier alternative to outright decadent German chocolate cake. Rolled oats and flax meal are substitutes for part of the all purpose flour, and butter and sugar have been reduced. I resisted the urge to tweak ingredients as I often do, and was pleasantly surprised that they… |

Apple Harvest CakeFor apple season this is a slam-dunk! It's especially pleasing for its moistness and chunks of apple, plus folks appreciate a cake without frosting for a change! This one's a keeper for your fall pot lucks! Single recipe makes an 8" x 8" size; double it for a 9" x 13" pan for pot lucks. |

Mrs. Harvey’s White FruitcakeLet 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. Or the sheer size or amount of this rich cake is enough to last folks til next Christmas. You will be pleasantly surprised though with Mrs. Harvey’s White Fruitcake. In the ’50s, Lucile Harvey… |
