We love these crowd-pleasing Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars – they taste just like the ones you used to get with your school lunch (if you were lucky!) The cookie bar is soft and chewy with lots of oatmeal, then a thin layer of creamy peanut butter, and topped off with […]
My kids and hubby often request this dish for their birthdays because they think it’s super fancy. While it does taste fancy, what they don’t know is that the sauce only takes about five minutes to cook and the whole thing is done in about 35 minutes. It’s made with […]
One of my favorite things about visiting Kentucky, where my daughter lives, is eating a piece of Derby Pie. It was created by George Kern for the Melrose Inn in 1950 and is hugely popular in Louisville. It’s like a warm chocolate chip cookie in pie form. I love everything […]
This Poppy Seed Dressing is a wonderful complement to almost any salad. It’s sweet and pungent, and only takes a few minutes to make in a blender. Experiment with different kinds of oil for this recipe and find the one that you like best. I’ve added some suggestions in the […]
This pastry crust is a great base for lots of different pies and tarts – chocolate pecan, strawberry, peanut butter, ice cream, etc. It’s also forgiving since it’s not rolled out but is pressed into a pie plate or tart pan. Use a really good unsweetened cocoa like Guittard or […]
Baking in parchment is a fantastic way to keep your chicken moist, with minimal fuss. It’s simple and quick – and can be used for tonight’s dinner or for cooking chicken in bulk to be frozen and used later. I taught my college-age son how to cook in parchment and […]

My family loves this eggy, cheesy breakfast casserole. We make it fairly often but it’s also our family’s traditional Christmas breakfast, served with Fluffy Southern Buttermilk Biscuits, raspberry jam, and orange juice. I put all the ingredients together the night before, refrigerate it, then cook it up after the kids […]
These Blondie bars (we also call them Tongo Bars) are perfect for when the whole soccer team unexpectedly shows up or a bunch of cousins come over for game night. Everyone loves them, they mix up fast and bake for 25 minutes. You can make these a little fancier by […]
Oh, you’ve had those other lemon pies – those overly-sweet, unremarkable pies that are a dime a dozen. This recipe from my Grandma Georgie (the pie queen,) is one you will never forget AND, one you’ll want to make over and over. Creamy and subtle, this pie is made with […]
