About me: I've been cooking and baking since I was a child and collecting cookbooks almost that long. Years ago, I lost my entire collection in a flood and I've been slowly building it back up. I cook for my husband and three sons who are not very adventurous eaters. We're on the go a lot with sports and school schedules. I love to bake and my boys and their friends appreciate all manner of baked goods.

Favorite cookbook: King Arthur Flour Cookie Companion

Ginger Pork Meatballs with Cilantro and Fish Sauce from Dinner: Changing the Game

These meatballs and the dipping sauce were to die for delicious. Although there was a lot of chopping the recipe was easy to follow. Everyone loved it and we will definitely make this again. read more >

Pillsbury: The Complete Book of Baking

Chocolate Chip Cake : page 153

Nice looking vanilla bundt cake studded with mini chocolate chips.

Delicious cake made with butter, cream cheese, vanilla and mini chocolate chips. The batter is quite thick and needs to be scooped into the pan.

I was sure to grease the pan thoroughly and the cake popped right out after cooling for about 20 minutes. This makes a great snack cake as it requires no icing.

Cinnamon Coffee Cake : page 401

This is a nice, quick coffee cake. It's different from many quick coffee cakes as it has no streusel on the top or mixed in. Instead, holes are poked throughout the cake after it comes out of the oven. Melted butter is then brushed on and cinnamon sugar is sprinkled on top.

It tastes rather like a buttermilk donut or muffin but is super quick to make. It can be eaten within 15 minutes of coming out of the oven.

The cake comes together very quickly as all of the ingredients are added to one bowl before being mixed briefly and poured into a 9 inch square pan.

Perfect Apple Pie : page 272

I couldn't really tell you whether or not this is the perfect apple pie but I can tell you that it's awfully good. This is the first recipe for apple pie I ever tried and I've been making it for years. It has just the right amount of sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg for our tastes.

Pumpkin Pound Cake : page 151

Perfect fall dessert!

This pound cake is baked in a bundt pan. It is very rich - as all pound cakes are - and wonderfully moist but not at all heavy. The pumpkin flavor and spices are subtle but noticeable which made the cake a hit with the pumpkin fans and non-fans in my family.

This was so easy to make that I'll be sure to make it again.
