Being more intentional about what we're eating and not just buying groceries and then figuring out what to do with them after the fact. I've gotten into a bad habit of thinking a whole lot of things are "pantry staples" and then things don't always get used in a very timely manner, or at all. </div><div><br /></div><div>One of those ingredients is almond flour! I bought several gluten free flours awhile back and haven't really made much of a dent in them. I figured it was time to pull them out, see if they're still good, and see what we can make with them!</div><div><br /></div><div>My first almond flour recipe is this cookie. I will be honest - I cannot taste ANYTHING right now (well, very little). I'm a week into COVID and healing slowly, but my smell and taste are definitely affected. I am relying very heavily on my family for their input on what needs "edits" right now. I am still enjoying cooking most days - just have no idea what anything tastes like! It's very disconcerting - especially for someone who spends so much time thinking about and creating food. </div><div><br /></div><div>I am very much looking forward to these symptoms subsiding and getting back to "normal". </div><div><br /></div><div>In the mean time - here are some almond flour cookies which I am told are "good" - and I can tell you the texture is lovely. They hold together well, without being crumbly, the bottom gets nice and crispy and they have a soft and chewy center! </div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQybJlr29Vdt2edTIuKoTrfdaQgRHS1UpBsc6SgRVZMxge6XlqaRd3kQVA7h3mdWdbbhAtm6CdLkYUgzEUszXKS3icoEhFu1b9XFw2BS1iHNefG8uoJqNyima7YLwnGM9X_H8wtX-aBteaJ1IxnzMtDsOVH8w9rUgjIg5pv3VKLwTrVq6U4g/s4032/20230130_123055.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQybJlr29Vdt2edTIuKoTrfdaQgRHS1UpBsc6SgRVZMxge6XlqaRd3kQVA7h3mdWdbbhAtm6CdLkYUgzEUszXKS3icoEhFu1b9XFw2BS1iHNefG8uoJqNyima7YLwnGM9X_H8wtX-aBteaJ1IxnzMtDsOVH8w9rUgjIg5pv3VKLwTrVq6U4g/w640-h480/20230130_123055.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><b>Almond Flour Cookies</b></div><div><br /></div><div><u>Ingredients</u></div><div>2 cups almond flour blanched almond flour</div><div><div>1/2 teaspoon baking powder</div><div>1/4 cup butter (melted)</div><div>3 tablespoon maple syrup</div><div>1 teaspoon vanilla extract</div><div>1/2 cup chocolate chips (mixed)</div></div><div><br /></div><div><u>Directions</u></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with a silpat.</li><li>Add the almond flour and baking powder to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.

Add in the salt and flour and slowly increase speed until dough ball begins to form and comes together. Mix on medium to medium-high speed for about 3-4 minutes.

Lightly flour your rolling pin and counter, just enough so the dough doesn't stick.</li><li>Use your hand, a butter knife, or an offset spatula to spread the softened butter all over the rectangle of dough, almost to the very edges.</li><li>Sprinkle the brown sugar cinnamon mixture evenly all over, then sprinkle the chopped apples over that.</li><li>Roll into a log shape, from the long side (see photos).</li><li>Spray a 9x13 pan with nonstick cooking spray.</li><li>Cut the log into 12 large cinnamon rolls and arrange in the pan. Cover with a tea towel and set aside to rise 30-60 minutes, until very puffy.</li><li>Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake 25-30 minutes, covering about half way through when they are lightly browned to prevent over browning. Ensure the center rolls are cooked all the way through before removing from oven and setting aside to begin cooling.</li><li>Prepare the frosting while the rolls cool by whipping the softened cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer until creamy, add in the sifted confectioners sugar and slowly increase speed to medium-high, scraping down the sides and bottom as needed. Add in the vanilla. Add a splash or two of half and half if you want a looser, creamier texture.</li><li>When rolls are mostly cooled, but still just warm, frost them and serve! </li></ol></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><i>Recipe adapted from <a href="https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/apple-cinnamon-rolls/">Sally's Baking</a></i></div><ul>

She invited us to join her in sharing some creative lasagnas this week! She said: <i>"I'm looking for layered casseroles that have a lasagna vibe so you can put a spin on your favorite lasagna recipe but add veggies or a spicy sauce. Change out beef for another protein source (fried tofu crumbles or ground turkey sauce, anyone?) or make a white sauce to layer with lasagna noodles and cheese for a seafood lasagna. OR make a traditional lasagna with meat sauce and cheese but replace the pasta layer with vegetables. The options are endless and I'll be happy with whatever you make that isn't just a random casserole like enchiladas or mac and cheese. I want lasagna layers!"</i></div></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaYQFcCRAKUm20ekjrx2oifxWYx6IDupC2Z9PwORRymJUD-ZfbQAzGQK1vRlaI7XQqHrA9alsJsXFbGGYmbe5P0xKtc1dos-SUaTedwEoJjMAAsKR5nCcelPTGHjRhIkaAxL687G7DLMGh-sghHqm6r4hPWj-E7a4FBCWeBfda1TJvhG2rVQ/s4032/20220423_185142.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaYQFcCRAKUm20ekjrx2oifxWYx6IDupC2Z9PwORRymJUD-ZfbQAzGQK1vRlaI7XQqHrA9alsJsXFbGGYmbe5P0xKtc1dos-SUaTedwEoJjMAAsKR5nCcelPTGHjRhIkaAxL687G7DLMGh-sghHqm6r4hPWj-E7a4FBCWeBfda1TJvhG2rVQ/w480-h640/20220423_185142.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>Get inspired to make a creative twist on lasagna!</div><div><ul>

I know they won't last long at my house and I won't be eating cake for breakfast for the next week! These little cakes are deliciously chocolatey. Watch the bake time on the smaller cakes so they don't dry out (especially if you distribute to 4 wells of your cake pan instead of 3 like I did). Add some chocolate chips if you'd like to change it up, or a lovely ganache or glaze for extra moisture and sweetness. </div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Lora, serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Lora, serif; font-size: 16px;">As is, this is a wonderful basic chocolate cake recipe, quick and easy to whip up anytime!!</div></div><br /><div>See all of our "Devil and and Angel" cakes for today!</div>

This is essentially an iteration of that same recipe. Their chicken salad is very finely processed - it's not thick and chunky. It's more smooth and uniform since the food processor grinds everything up. It holds together really well and makes for a hearty and tasty sandwich! Or if you're skipping the carbs, just enjoy a bowl of it. It's protein packed and delicious! </div><div><p style="text-align: center;">Welcome to Supper Club Saturday #2 (February 2022)</p><ul><li style="list-style-type: none;"><ul><li style="list-style-type: none;"><ul><li><a href="https://snehasrecipe.blogspot.com/" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Easy In A Minute Super Thick Mayonnaise</a> from Sneha’s Recipe</li><li><a href="https://rebekahrose.blogspot.com/" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Leftover Turkey Salad (Sandwiches)</a> from Making Miracles</li><li><a href="https://palatablepastime.com/" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Olive Garden Salad Dressing</a> from Palatable Pastime</li><li><a href="https://adayinthelifeonthefarm.blogspot.com/" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Pork Tenderloin with Roasted Grapes</a> from A Day in the Life on the Farm</li><li><a href="https://www.terristeffes.com" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Quick and Easy Be My Valentine Heart Shaped Pizza with Heart Shaped Pepperoni</a> from Our Good Life</li><li><a href="https://www.patycocandybar.com/" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Ratatouille with Cheese</a> from Patyco Candy Bar</li><li><a href="”https://magicalingredients.blogspot.com/”" target="”_blank”">Rose Chia Pudding</a> from Magical Ingredients</li><li><a href="https://artofnaturalliving.com/steak-diane-mushroom-brandy-sauce/" rel="noopener no referrer" target="_blank">Steak Diane</a> from Art of Natural Living</li></ul></li></ul></li></ul></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhZsZezo3qac4i3SegsBo89SDzokeRFuMbs_GQ6YjmAYcc4xmDsapL3BkzxgT_6KUDwNb2n_gW6dXLteU0OQoqNo0-Wc3mGyjITHB_57a-3EY-WWOK8Hn55LgRsSTYzP_PGTThm0Wc-A8gqYtEq2B13tl7_nc9H8jl4cyNh3CsIwKuNiKnlbg=s4032" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhZsZezo3qac4i3SegsBo89SDzokeRFuMbs_GQ6YjmAYcc4xmDsapL3BkzxgT_6KUDwNb2n_gW6dXLteU0OQoqNo0-Wc3mGyjITHB_57a-3EY-WWOK8Hn55LgRsSTYzP_PGTThm0Wc-A8gqYtEq2B13tl7_nc9H8jl4cyNh3CsIwKuNiKnlbg=w480-h640" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Leftover Turkey Salad (Sandwiches)</b></div><div><br /></div><u>Ingredients</u><br /><div><div>2 cups cooked turkey (white and/or dark mixed), rough chopped</div><div><div>3 stalks celery, diced</div><div>1/4 tsp black pepper</div><div>1/2 tsp garlic powder </div><div>2 hardboiled eggs, chopped</div><div>2/3 cup mayonnaise</div></div><div>1 tsp yellow mustard</div></div><div><br /></div><div><u>Directions</u></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse a little at a time until mixture comes together (as fine or rough as you prefer).</li><li>Taste and adjust seasonings / mustard / mayonnaise as desired.</li><li>Serve on bread with your favorite toppings - lettuce, tomato, pickles, etc.!

Okay, I clearly have marshmallows on the mind. Join me."</i></div></div>
<div><br /></div><div>Come to the dark side... we have marshmallows? Ok!! I'm in. </div><div><br /></div><div>Today I opted to make hot chocolate in cookie form - and they do not disappoint. The cookie dough is also DELICIOUS. Be careful.

Add in the sifted confectioners' sugar on low speed, slowly increasing as the sugar incorporates into the cream cheese. Scrape down the sides and bottom as needed to fully blend.</li><li>Blend in about 3 ounces of the melted chocolate on low speed, slowly increasing to high (if you add it in while the speed is set to high, the chocolate has a tendency to hit the sides of the bowl and cool quickly, and it will no longer incorporate into the frosting at that point).</li><li>Spread the frosting all over the cooled bars (it will make a fairly thick layer, you don't have to use all of it). Sprinkle with the chopped dried cranberries. Place remaining melted white chocolate in a ziploc bag, snip the very tip of a corner of the bag and drizzle all over the top of the cranberry layer.</li><li>Refrigerate to cool and set the frosting. Slice into bars or triangles. Store in the refrigerator. </li></ol></div><div><i>Recipe adapted from <a href="https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/white-chocolate-cranberry-blondies/">Taste of Home</a></i></div></div></div><ul>

You can really taste the fresh herbs and the shrimp themselves the most, in my opinion. Sprinkle with chopped scallions if you like green onions - that would be a great flavor addition to these. </div><br /><div>See all of our Asian-inspired dishes:</div><div><ul><ul style="text-align: left;">

He is attending a local Christian school that has a wonderful international program where students stay with local host families. My dad has been working with this school as a host for the past three years and has been lucky to have the same student the entire time. Max has become a member of the family and we are going to miss him terribly when he graduates this year! My sister and I decided to sign up as a potential host family almost a year ago and about a month ago we got a call that they had a student for us from China coming in half way through the school year!</span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Lora, serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Lora, serif;">We have been so excited to welcome Dallas into our home, and have been slowly but surely adjusting to our new routine and new normal. We all get up at about the same time in the morning, I cook a hot breakfast every morning, Kylie drives him to school, I clean up and feed everyone else, we work all day, and then I pick him up in the afternoon and have been cooking a new dinner every night since he arrived on the 4th. If nothing else, it has pointed out to me how out of the family dinner routine we've gotten over the years! </span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Lora, serif;"><br /></span></div><div style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Lora, serif;">Evenings have been free for all most of the time and occasional delivery! It's been nice to cook so regularly again. And we're slowly cycling through a lot of familiar and "classic" meals (at least familiar and classic to us)! I think some of it has gone over well, and some of it not so much. I can only imagine how much of a system shock it must be to overnight go from home / familiar / routine to a completely different culture / home / family / language. He and his mom are both incredibly brave!

Chicken soup is always cozy and comforting - and this recipe comes together in no time. If you've got some leftover chicken in the fridge, with a few pantry stapes you can have a very comforting, and light meal in no time. Chock full of fresh veggies and a lightly sweet delicious tomato based broth. The flavor will definitely depend on the broth and wine you use. I really enjoyed this one - and if you're looking for chicken soup inspiration, look no further than the list below!</div><div><br />Our homemade chicken soups:<br /><ul><li><a href="https://www.karenskitchenstories.com/2022/01/caldo-de-pollo-sopa-la-mexicana-mexican.html" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Caldo de Pollo + Sopa a la Mexicana</a> by Karen’s Kitchen Stories</li><li><a href="https://snehasrecipe.blogspot.com/2022/01/chicken-noodle-soup-oil-freesoupswappers.html" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Chicken Noodle Soup</a> by Sneha’s Recipe</li><li><a href="https://palatablepastime.com/2022/01/15/chicken-poblano-chowder/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Chicken Poblano Chowder</a> from Palatable Pastime</li><li><a href="http://adayinthelifeonthefarm.blogspot.com/2022/01/ground-chicken-noodle-soup-and-weekly.html" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Ground Chicken Noodle Soup</a> by A Day in the Life on the Farm</li><li><a href="https://rebekahrose.blogspot.com/2022/01/italian-chicken-stew.html" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Italian Chicken Stew</a> from Making Miracles</li><li><a href="”http://faithhopeloveandlucksurvivedespiteawhiskeredaccomplice.com/chicken-stars-soup-with-peas-fresh-dill/”" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Chicken & Stars Soup with Peas & Fresh Dill</a> from Faith, Hope, Love, & Luck Survive Despite a Whiskered Accomplice</li></ul></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhalaSnXc-rkE420psqN4wvQj6UdllB9WyRnAuZfLm2mXpIx9q9cZNE72fVZtpb3q1wskGGpaImO6MUbKSSkwqaoPSBwMmPjO8ZSe_ny2wdO0xojpHR7xOaWhsf3SGdejib1KCmLCCIjicXLAYQpMkI-AkioAhAx0BY23KiGbWRF53t1mCI3Q=s4032" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhalaSnXc-rkE420psqN4wvQj6UdllB9WyRnAuZfLm2mXpIx9q9cZNE72fVZtpb3q1wskGGpaImO6MUbKSSkwqaoPSBwMmPjO8ZSe_ny2wdO0xojpHR7xOaWhsf3SGdejib1KCmLCCIjicXLAYQpMkI-AkioAhAx0BY23KiGbWRF53t1mCI3Q=w480-h640" width="480" /></a></div><div><p><b>Italian Chicken Stew</b></p><div><div><u>Ingredients</u></div><div>1 tablespoon olive oil</div><div>2 stalks celery, diced</div><div>2 carrots, peeled and diced</div><div>1 medium onion, diced</div><div>1 heaping tsp minced garlic</div><div>salt and pepper (to taste)</div><div>1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained)</div><div>1 (14 ounce) can chicken broth</div><div>1⁄4 cup white wine</div><div>1 teaspoon dried basil</div><div>1 teaspoon dried thyme</div><div>1 bay leaf</div><div>2-3 cups cooked, chopped chicken</div><div>1 (15 ounce) can cannellini (or northern) beans, drained and rinsed</div><div><br /></div><div><u>Directions</u></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat.

Turn off heat.</li><li>Assemble the crepes by laying them out one at a time on the counter, spreading a little bit of Dijon mustard along one side. Divide the filling evenly amongst the crepes. Fold in the ends, and then roll them up to create the egg, ham, and cheese pocket.</li><li>Repeat to use up all ingredients. </li><li>Add toppings, if desired (such as diced tomato, sautéed mushroom, avocado, some sour cream, hollandaise sauce, etc. - be creative)!

They're easily adjusted to any size of baguette / bread base and you could use other jam flavors but the fig is really lovely with the brie. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">See all of our delicious New Year's Eve recipe ideas!</div><div style="text-align: left;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://adayinthelifeonthefarm.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">ABC Dip (Artichokes, Brie and Crab)</a> from A Day in the Life on the Farm</li><li><a href="https://palatablepastime.com/ " target="_blank">Crispy Pimento Cheese Cups</a> from Palatable Pastime</li><li><a href="http://rebekahrose.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Ham and Brie Crostini with Jam</a> from Making Miracles</li><li><a href="https://www.amyscookingadventures.com/ " target="_blank">Neapolitan Cake</a> from Amy’s Cooking Adventures</li><li><a href="https://www.foodlustpeoplelove.com" target="_blank">Pepperoni Pizza Meatballs</a> from Food Lust People Love</li><li><a href="https://pandemoniumnoshery.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Trollkrem - Norwegian Lingonberry Dessert</a> from Pandemonium Noshery</li><li><a href="https://snehasrecipe.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Wine Fruit Cake</a> Sneha’s Recipe</li></div><div style="text-align: left;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjgL6PZ4vf_2hzhuzJFxRB3tTcivDgozkDFHBM4yVIyW12SorqaCEAShIcWMB_m66A9ps170WjyhhLbIdCndT7EnXv5bZ2Ytc9ih6ntiikjo0essQUJRm6uMrsG0kDL3DHmItX13GN3Zv28IsFs1m8f0k0En-KqZptiH22KIQNDS8iJu-SC3w=s4032" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjgL6PZ4vf_2hzhuzJFxRB3tTcivDgozkDFHBM4yVIyW12SorqaCEAShIcWMB_m66A9ps170WjyhhLbIdCndT7EnXv5bZ2Ytc9ih6ntiikjo0essQUJRm6uMrsG0kDL3DHmItX13GN3Zv28IsFs1m8f0k0En-KqZptiH22KIQNDS8iJu-SC3w=w640-h480" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Ham and Brie Crostini with Jam</b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Ingredients</u></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div>24 (1/4-inch thick) baguette slices</div><div>1/4 - 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil </div><div>3/4 pound ham slices, cut into 24 pieces</div><div>9 ounces Brie cheese, sliced and cut into 24 pieces</div><div>1/4 cup fig jam</div><div><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><u>Directions</u></div><div style="text-align: left;"><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Not to mention they are good warm, and room temperature - so they can sit out for awhile and still be tasty. This iteration adds in a helping of marinara, some pepperoni and a little bit of mozzarella for a tasty twist on the original! Serve with warm marinara; add a sprinkling of Italian seasonings or parmesan for more flavor if you'd like! I served these up at our Christmas day get together and my family made a good dent in them for sure - they never last long at any get together!</div><div class="separator" style="background-color: white; clear: both; font-family: Lora, serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: white; clear: both; font-family: Lora, serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEik3pyQA9nz_03YPcHW1mRVtX_8ZC8UQONKdhNGnY2TApF4r0ZGrU7DA6r56_1S-6MEuY5ONMeY9YEhH2HJiPjiOYAcc-6c53GgpFa_orQyXWaZ4R7UK4e73rp0_PALJNnUr23vaiNhWq31zX4zm-4cPkZUDoxLdLLCOiWW7yA8an9lALMdiw=s4032" style="background-color: transparent; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEik3pyQA9nz_03YPcHW1mRVtX_8ZC8UQONKdhNGnY2TApF4r0ZGrU7DA6r56_1S-6MEuY5ONMeY9YEhH2HJiPjiOYAcc-6c53GgpFa_orQyXWaZ4R7UK4e73rp0_PALJNnUr23vaiNhWq31zX4zm-4cPkZUDoxLdLLCOiWW7yA8an9lALMdiw=w640-h480" width="640" /></a></div></div><div><br /></div><div>Come see all of our New Years Party worthy recipes!</div><div><h3>Prepping for New Years Parties</h3><ul><li><a href="https://blogghetti.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers</a> from Blogghetti</li><li><a href="https://freshaprilflours.com/champagne-jello-shots/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Champagne Jello Shots</a> from Fresh April Flours</li><li><a href="https://www.terristeffes.com" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Confetti Champagne Cocktail</a> from Our Good Life</li><li><a href="https://cheesecurdinparadise.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Crispy Parmesan Tortellini Bites</a> from Cheese Curd In Paradise</li><li><a href="https://www.thespiffycookie.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Deviled Potatoes</a> from The Spiffy Cookie</li><li><a href="https://thefreshmancook.com" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Grilled Party Kabobs</a> from The Freshman Cook</li><li><a href="https://palatablepastime.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Hanky Panky</a> from Palatable Pastime</li><li><a href="https://www.devourdinner.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">lil-smokies-pigs-in-a-blanket</a> from Devour Dinner</li><li><a href="https://thatrecipe.com" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Mango Avocado Shrimp Cocktails</a> from That Recipe</li><li><a href="https://jenaroundtheworld.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Mini Cheeseball Bites</a> from Jen Around the World</li><li><a href="https://www.akitchenhoorsadventures.com/moonshine-margarita/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Moonshine Margarita</a> from A Kitchen Hoor’s Adventures</li><li><a href="https://magicalingredients.blogspot.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Pesto Crescent Spirals</a> from Magical Ingredients</li><li><a href="http://rebekahrose.blogspot.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Pizza Pigs In A Blanket</a> from Making Miracles</li><li><a href="https://artofnaturalliving.com/sorbet-and-champagne-cocktail/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Sorbet Champagne Cocktail</a> from Art of Natural Living</li></ul></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjZV7caYlKgnnIsZY19siAEAQRu3px4kVj4yIstBOqICfuY-IhP9YBcqr1yPvAv9ak6Gg_pByNZuw1IQPlCQK6SqAHL3ZU-vm2GzMiCbFCUCTbweqt0K-Nzzq_vcPQn-9vyXx3AWE1hoTiwMgS_WV0KbC3EmluPN-MVtzTVx7_ry8r-WJDoWQ=s4032" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjZV7caYlKgnnIsZY19siAEAQRu3px4kVj4yIstBOqICfuY-IhP9YBcqr1yPvAv9ak6Gg_pByNZuw1IQPlCQK6SqAHL3ZU-vm2GzMiCbFCUCTbweqt0K-Nzzq_vcPQn-9vyXx3AWE1hoTiwMgS_WV0KbC3EmluPN-MVtzTVx7_ry8r-WJDoWQ=w640-h480" width="640" /></a></div><br /></div><b>Pizza Pigs In Blankets</b><div><br /></div><div><u>Ingredients</u></div><div><div>Nonstick cooking spray, for the baking sheet</div><div>1 13.8-ounce tube crescent roll dough</div><div>1 cup store-bought pizza sauce, divided</div><div>1 1/2 mozzarella sticks, cut into 32 small slices</div><div>32 small slices pepperoni </div><div>1 16-oz package lil smokies</div><div><br /></div></div><div><u>Directions</u></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Preheat oven to 350 degrees.</li><li>Roll out crescent roll dough.

Each month The Cake Slice Bakers are offered a selection of cakes from the current book we are baking through. This year it is <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Little-Everyday-Cakes-Proportioned-Confections/dp/1940611679/ref=sr_1_1?crid=X8ELJGJDD0QO&dchild=1&keywords=little+everyday+cakes&qid=1610823475&sprefix=little+everysay%2Caps%2C261&sr=8-1" target="_blank">Little Everyday Cakes</a> by Candace Floyd. We each choose one cake to bake, and then on the 20th - never before - we all post about our cake on our blogs.

I baked this up in a 2-qaurt baking dish and served with a dollop of whipped cream. You can make the recommended kahlua buttercream, or just keep it simple if you're not a big fan of icing either. A dusting of powdered sugar or touch of whipped cream is lovely with this cake - or add a sprinkling of chocolate chips to the top of the cake before baking and call it a snack cake. However you top it - the cake is the star of the show. Very lovely and moist, with a deep chocolate flavor enhanced by the Kahlua and coffee addition! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEghXGT5JL5vWwyV9XBpqx70i6tyZewRb7dfoHomHpft-GXGgmwEvV0fYD1VHUZ4UPaHvLlrNw-SgzmpyrVY38i251L6jWnoWLUYE4TLb7J-9Cskx1j6t4i6fz8upE0h63w10ALZR9ofaUB5blnjmzlt8I6BtloMURLeR-56uaqncrll2nbSqQ=s4032" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEghXGT5JL5vWwyV9XBpqx70i6tyZewRb7dfoHomHpft-GXGgmwEvV0fYD1VHUZ4UPaHvLlrNw-SgzmpyrVY38i251L6jWnoWLUYE4TLb7J-9Cskx1j6t4i6fz8upE0h63w10ALZR9ofaUB5blnjmzlt8I6BtloMURLeR-56uaqncrll2nbSqQ=w640-h480" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Kahlua Cake</b></div><div><br /></div><div><u>Ingredients</u></div><div><div>1 1/4 cups flour</div><div>1 tsp baking soda</div><div>1/4 tsp salt</div><div>5 TBS coffee liqueur (Kahlua)</div><div>3 TBS strong brewed coffee, cooled (I used unsweetened iced coffee)</div><div>6 TBS buttermilk</div><div>7 TBS butter, room temperature</div><div>1 1/4 cups sugar</div><div>2 eggs</div></div><div><br /></div><div><u>Directions</u></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.</li><li>Blend the softened butter in the bowl of a stand mixer until light and fluffy.
