Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

Gambar
I just made these for an Easter family gathering. I followed the directions, (using the flour, baking powder, salt substitute), baked for the full time and it came out golden and perfect. Even the edges were perfect, not hard and overdone. Recipe >> Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars @ southyourmouth.com

The Best Chocolate Sheet Cake

Gambar
I have been making this cake since 2008, the year I got married. It is the only cake I make from scratch. I only use 1 stick butter in the icing, and use 1 cup pecans. I never buy buttermilk so I always use the vinegar. This cake recipe was given to me by my Aunt Stella right after I got married and I love it. Since there is no need for an electric mixer it was easy for a newly wed. We call it Cookie Sheet Cake I use a large cookie sheet 1 inch deep about 11” x 15” hope this helps with the size pan to use.

Calorie counting is not for everyone! And that’s OK. But if you have certain goals, like building muscle, getting leaner, or losing weight, then being mindful of how much you’re eating can be super helpful to you. Something else that’s important is to make sure that the foods you eat are high in nutritious value.

Creamy Southern Pasta Salad

Pasta salads belong in America's Hall of Fame. Think about it. Dare you not attend a cookout or summer picnic without some form of pasta salad taking center place on the table. Between Aunt Becky Mae, Cousin Clarice, Mama Sue Ellen or Granny Pearl, there will be at least one bowl of this favorite side dish showing up, if not two. America has had a taste for pasta salad ever since it starting showing up on cookbook pages in the early part of the 1900's. Every region as well as every family has a favorite spin on their kind preferred whether made with a vinaigrette bath or a good soaking in a creamy mayo based dressing. Down here in the south, we prefer the creamy dressing. Surprised? I didn't think so. Now, there is one rule I was taught when making pasta salads, several actually, and I will share all with you. The most important is to overcompensate with seasoning and moisture, and slightly under cook the pasta. After the 'set' period, everything comes together and ...

Paleo Banana Muffins

These just came out of the oven, and the verdict is…………..delicious! I didn’t have sunflower seed butter, so I used peanut butter. Next time I’ll get the sunflower seed butter. Anyway, these muffins are super moist and yummy. These are really the only paelo muffins I’ve tried that don’t taste like an egg muffin. Bake these, you won’t be sorry!

Classic Southern Caramel Cake

I was very ambitious and made this cake for Christmas. The cake turned out very well. Everyone loved it. I did a few things differently though, I didn’t have light brown sugar, I used dark brown instead, didn’t have self rising flour only Arcade my own self rising. Everything turned out fine.
