20 Cinco de Mayo Recipes

By Stephanie 1 Comment

Here are 20 mouthwatering Mexican inspired dishes for your Cinco de Mayo menu, or for any night you are craving BIG, BOLD flavors!

Mexican food is some of my all-time favorites.  The flavors are unlike anything I've had in other cuisines.  The careful balance of spice, creaminess, and of course freshness is something you'll never get at a drive-thru nor chain restaurant.   Homemade Mexican food is where it's at!  And while these recipes aren't exactly authentic, they do take their inspiration from the flavors and ingredients often found in Mexican cuisine. ...

Sinfully Rich Chocolate Cake

By Stephanie 15 Comments

This Sinfully Rich Chocolate Cake can be made into a layer cake for birthdays, but with how rich it is, we prefer it without frosting and just a chocolate glaze drizzled across the top.  The addition of strong black coffee to both the cake batter and the glaze intensify the richness of the chocolate and leave just a light perfume of coffee behind.

For many, coffee is the nectar of the Gods.  It is what they wake up for in the morning, and don't even attempt to talk to them until they have finished the first cup.  My husband is one of these people.  I love him, but he can not even attempt to function until he has finished his first cup of coffee.  Me on the other hand, I can't stand the stuff!  Love the smell, hate the taste. I do use coffee a lot when I bake, especially if I'm making anything that includes chocolate.  Coffee makes ...

Old-Fashioned Hermit Bar Cookies #HousefulOfCookies

By Stephanie 1 Comment

Each summer, my family would make the 8-hour drive up to Cape Cod to visit with step-father's family.  From our very first summer going up there in 1986, we would have lunch at Aunt Millie's house before going to the cottage for the week.  Her little yippie dog would be jumping at our feet, not used to seeing children in the house.  My grandfather and grandmother would already be there, sitting in the living room sipping their coffee.  And as soon as us kids walked in the ...

How to Make Sausage Stuffing

By Stephanie 15 Comments

It's not Thanksgiving without our family's classic sausage stuffing. This spin on a traditional bread stuffing is easy to prepare, and tastes amazing stuffed in the turkey or baked in a casserole dish.

If you were to ask my son what his favorite thing was about Thanksgiving, he would tell you it's sausage stuffing.  Sausage stuffing is a classic and it has to be on our table every time we have a roast turkey.  It just isn't Thanksgiving dinner without it! This family favorite takes your traditional bread stuffing and adds another layer of flavor from the browned Italian Sausage.  While some of the herbs are things you only get around Thanksgiving time, most cooks will ...

Our Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies

By Stephanie 1 Comment

Our favorite chocolate chip cookies are a simple, old-fashioned recipe with regular ingredients & a few simple steps which bake up to perfect cookies every time.

On snowy days growing up, my younger brother would ask me to make him chocolate chip cookies. He would drag a chair across the kitchen and stand next to me as I would make these. Taste testing the chocolate chips, and always asking for a spoonful of cookie dough. It was the first recipe I ever prepared on my own without my mom’s help, and the first recipe I ever committed to memory. These days, I make cookies for my children and still whip of a batch for my brother every once in a while. Now ...
