White Mountain Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting
White Mountain Cake with Whipped Cream Cheese Frosting I’m a little behind this month so thankfully I found this recipe that I had never posted this past summer. This recipe is for White Mountain Cake. This cake is very special for me for two reasons. Firstly, this cake recipe comes from a long time family friend who passed away a few years ago. His name was John but everyone called him Jack. He suffered from a stroke when I was a teenager and I’d go to visit him in the nursing home often. I’d always sneak in a coffee and donuts. The stroke had left him unable to speak correctly.…

Forming the Crescents: I am going to show you how to shape these Homemade Crescent Rolls. I tend…

Aunt Marry’s Apple Dumplings
Aunt Mary’s Apple Dumplings My late Aunt Mary was renowned for her deliciously gooey apple dumplings. Although I’m not a huge fan of apples, or any fruit for that matter, I do love the flaky crust and sticky sauce that surrounds the apple. Give me a warm bowl of that flaky gooey goodness with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream and you can consider me a happy girl. A few years after I got married, I was handed this nostalgic recipe and knew I had to give it a try. With fall quickly approaching, what better time to master this recipe? It is truly quite simple to make, if you…

Strawberry Crunch Pound Cake
// I know I have been making a lot of cakes lately but this strawberry pound cake really takes the cake (pun intended). Due to the upcoming Easter holiday, my sister has come home from New York for the week. I am beyond thrilled! Because when my sister comes home it’s a free for all.. a free to stuff your face with all the food you want with no judgements and no talk of diets kinda all. So far we have been to the long horn for steaks and, of course, she had to one up me and get a steak AND lobster meal. Then the very next day we…
