Double Chip Chews

This is the same recipe as Fudgie Scotch Squares. Love these, but super sweet.

Snickerdoodles

These are one of my all time favorite cookies. Wish there was a more diabetic-friendly version.

Sugar Cookies

Ah….the traditional frosted Christmas cookies. Of course this recipe doesn’t have to be used for just Christmas. How about Halloween? Valentine’s Day? The recipe source is listed as Penzeys, which, apparently, is a space company. I don’t know anything about the spice company, but this is one of the recipes that my grandmother used.

Luncheon Layered Salad

This is a layered concoction with lettuce, green peppers, water chestnuts, peas, chicken, mayonnaise, cheddar cheese, and bacon.

Southern Creole Pralines

I loved these when I bought them at Stuckey’s. These are probably even better, but never made them.

Easy Butter Pecan Pound Cake

This was a version of a cake using the butter pecan cake mix that I was debating trying out. I ended up using a different recipe, so haven’t tried this one yet.

Grandma Ransom’s Ice Cream

Grandma Ransom is not my grandmother. She was the grandmother of a childhood friend in Colorado, Sarah Holmes. This is her ice cream recipe.

Sticky Icing (or 7 Minute Frosting)

One of the traditional icings that we have used in our family.

Kay’s Tombstone Fudge Recipe

This is a “famous” recipe for fudge that has a little story behind it. Everyone always wanted Kay’s recipe, so, in the end, it went on her gravestone.

Strawberry Cake

This strawberry cake recipe has been used in our family for years. It is one of Susannah’s favorites and usually what we have on her birthday.

Double Batch Buttercream Base
