This fruitcake is light in color, and so nice and moist! If you don’t like the dark, heavier fruitcakes, try this one! As a child, I watched my Aunt Gloria make this delicious fruitcake right after Thanksgiving for Christmas! I updated her recipe just a bit with a glaze, but…
Southern Living magazine’s December, 2017 cover of Cookies and Bars featured this decadent and delicious bar that I knew the chocolate lovers in my family would appreciate! This is a typical rich Southern recipe, for sure! They are like Magic Cookie Bars but taken up a few notches! It takes 2 steps to put the recipe together, but the steps are easy to follow. I…
This is my NO-FAIL, EASY, creamy and delicious chocolate fudge recipe that I love! I have a few favorite fudge recipes and this oldie-but-goodie is one I make a lot!

The only thing I changed was the crust. I have tried several other…

I mix most of the syrup with the apples before putting it into the pie, then brush my kept-warm, reserved syrup over the rest over…
This is pumpkin bread kicked up a notch! It has dates and raisins and nuts. It is baked in a bundt or tube pan but the texture is not a pumpkin cake! It is a large pumpkin bread! It is so moist, and really, really good! It’s a favorite of mine during the fall holidays! I just love this one! Enjoy!
This is an oldie but goodie recipe! My Aunt Gloria used to make this often and I loved it. No mixer needed! It is all made by hand! You can swap the shortening for butter if you want. To me, this is the best, moist cranberry bread recipe! And, it cuts into nice, clean slices! Enjoy!
This is my own version of cranberry scones. I like a lot of orange zest, or at least it has enough to taste the orange flavor! And I like my scones the American way, which is sweet and soft! Europeans prefer a drier and less sweet scone, more like a biscuit. This is soft and yummy, bursting with plenty of real cranberries! It is a very…
