    Autumn Maple Pecan Layer Cake With Penuche Fudge Frosting
    Handle

    Select One

    This wonderful cake recipe is an adapted one from the Magnolia Bakery Cookbook. The penuche fudge frosting is an old Southern recipe. Makes a very attractive presentation, especially when the cake plate is adorned with beautiful autumn leaves. This cake freezes beautifully, just allow the cake to defrost completely before filling and frosting the layers. I recommend Canadian or Vermont maple syrup and Georgia or Texas pecans, but you can use any pure maple syrup and could use walnuts, although we prefer pecans in this recipe.

    A rich, fudgy bundt cake baked with Jack Daniel's in the batter and studded with chocolate chips, chopped pecans, raisins, maraschino cherries and candied pineapple pieces. I simply couldn't resist--can you? Serve with a dollop of whipped cream. Adapted from Miss Mary Bobo's Boarding House Cookbook.

    This is a nice and moist chocolatey cake, nicely spiced and we like the addition of walnuts. You can dress it up with a dusting of powdered sugar, if you like. Recipe is from my sis-in-law Susie; she's been making this cake since the 70s. Best made a day ahead. Makes one bundt or tube cake, or two loaves. Enjoy!

    Very special cupcakes. Start with a simple Martha Stewart recipe for cupcakes, add a rich creamy filling, and top with an even richer strawberry buttercream made with fresh strawberries and real butter! Lovely for a baby shower, a girls birthday, or a ladies tea. Adapted from "Confessions of a Tart".

    Dad's Delicious Apple Pie In-A-Bag

    My very favorite apple pie, since childhood!! For the crust I always use Dad's Mazola No-Roll Pastry Shell recipe #117824 #117824. Dad always used Granny Smith apples, but I've found that Pink Lady apples also work beautifully in this pie--sometimes I use a combination of Granny Smith and Pink Ladies. Don't forget the vanilla ice cream! (Note: for those of you uncomfortable using a brown paper bag in the oven, you can omit that step and bake w/o the bag- - it's quite good that way too, -but- it won't be quite the same. Baking in the bag really does produce the most amazing pie!). I hope you enjoy this pie as much as we do!

    This pastry crust is so tender and flaky, and best of all SO EASY! I can't say enough good things about this pastry recipe, so you simply MUST TRY it---you will NEVER go back!! A treasured family recipe from my dear father---he never gave the recipe to anyone (except family), so shhh don't tell!!! Waaay better than any other I've ever tried. My Dad made 'Libby's Famous Pumpkin Pie' (2 pumpkin pies every Thanksgiving!) and his extra-special 'Apple Pie In A Bag' recipe #117825 with this crust, and I use it for ALL of my pie baking!!! I hope you enjoy! (note: makes a single 8 or 9-inch crust).

    This is a wonderfully moist and fragrant tea loaf, elegantly studded with pineapple, mango and aromatic candied stem-ginger. The addition of Darjeeling tea adds a lovely delicate floral-muscatel note. Jasmine tea would also be very lovely, you may use any tea of your choice. Make at least one day in advance of serving, to allow flavors to meld properly, so plan ahead. Great with a cuppa! This loaf keeps/freezes very well in an airtight container, and would make a lovely and welcome holiday or hostess gift!

    This is a beautiful cake to behold! And so easy with a prepared white cake. The frosting is absolutely divine. A wonderful spring or summertime dessert; make this cake at the peak of the season when strawberries are at their reddest and sweetest...enjoy! P.S. Great served with a scoop of strawberry ice cream.

    Fresh strawberry shortcakes served warm with butter and real freshly whipped cream! The key here is to use only the freshest, ripe, sweet strawberries when summer berries are at their peak, and always serve the biscuits warm (and with butter). Adapted from a James Villas recipe.
