I found this recipe in the newspaper and just had to try it. These cupcakes are so moist, and they are not sickening sweet like most chocolate cake is. The Stout really tones down the sweetness and allows...
These are really good! I got this recipe from a fun little book of home-made gifts..etc. (Autumn by Susan Branch,From the Heart of the Home) It has lots of fun ideas; many of which I haven't tried yet....

Turkey is the crowning dish on a Thanksgiving table. This recipe is all about having a moist and flavorful turkey thanks to a brine. The turkey sits in the brine for 30 hours and soaks up all the smoky...
I love this recipe as it can be made with any biscuit (cookie) you like. The stronger flavoured ones are best but will work with any. I love the ginger taste in this. We have a biscuit (cookie) that is...
I've tweaked this old church recipe over the years. Hearty and can be used as cold or hot cereal. To make flavored oatmeal add a 1/2 cup of water per 1/2 cup of granola and microwave. We eat this by the...
