Walnut Cake by Marlin RinehartThis cake is full of walnuts and is enhanced with the delicate flavor of cognac or brandy. It’s similar to a pound cake but lighter in texture. It bakes slowly in a cool oven and is perfect for nibbling with a cup of hot tea or coffee. I've been baking this cake for nearly 40 years. |

Apricot Walnut Squares (A Bar Cookie) by Salad FoodieCRUNCHY, CHEWY and MOIST. That sums up this pleasing amber-color bar cookie. The bottom crust gets extra crunch from bran cereal, while the top layer combines apricots and walnuts. This one-bowl recipe will be quick on cleanup, and that will give you more time to savor this unusual treat. |

Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick! by Salad FoodieI haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen. |

My hubby enjoys his cold with a sprinkle of sugar while I only like it hot with a sprinkle of sugar and dash of milk.

Mincemeat Cookies ~ The Old Fashioned Way by Amos MillerI have always loved mincemeat - pie with vanilla ice cream or cookies and cocoa. This is how we make them, except here I will substitute Borden's Nonesuch Mincemeat, or Robertson's (preferred) in a jar instead of homemade mincemeat. You can substitute your favorite shortening (vegetable works great) while I will use rendered leaf… |

Oatmeal and nuts provide a light crunchiness to the moist and munchy texture. In brief - a delightful cookie your company will love! |
