Favorite Creamy ColeslawFor me, this has just the right balance of slaw to dressing. A true creamy slaw delight. Keep in mind this produces a VERY creamy version of coleslaw. To reduce the creaminess, simply add a bit more cabbage. |

If you chose to top with frosting you can make your own or buy one off the shelf & make that your little secret.… |

Saucepan Chocolate Sheet CakeA large saucepan can be used to prepare both the batter and the frosting of this sheet cake. Sour cream adds moisture and a more tender texture. This recipe makes enough for a large group or potluck. |

Balsamic MayonnaiseThis is mayonnaise set on it's ear. I came up with it one day while making my traditional homemade mayo. I searched my pantry, and to my dismay, I had run out of white, red, cider, distilled and seasoned rice vinegar. Alas, I came to my balsamic vinegar. I took a gander and gave it the old college try. I was extremely pleased… |
