Oven Caramel Popcorn

Popcorn is one of my favorite snacks, but this sweet version is a little too sweet for me.

Mother’s Persimmon Pudding

A classic recipe from my grandmother, Gladah Childs.

German Sweet Chocolate Cake

I am not sure if this is really intended to be German Chocolate Cake, but the recipe says to “frost tops only” and does not specify what topping.

Chicken Squares

This is a layered casserole with bread on the bottom of the pan, and a combination of chicken, mayonnaise, celery, and onion poured over the first layer of bread, and then topped with another layer of bread. The dish is refrigerated overnight and then baked.

Bacon Cauliflower Salad

This salad will sit overnight in the refrigerator in layers. Before serving, mix all the ingredients together.

Mrs. Miller’s Springerles

This is the recipe for Christmas springerle cookies.

Jim’s Fruit Salad (Ambrosia)

This is one of my dad’s favorites that my grandmother made. Coconut, marshmallows, crushed pineapple, mandarin oranges, and sour cream. You can also add grapes, but we usually didn’t.

Chocolate Buttercream Frosting

This was a really good chocolate frosting. I used it on the Darn Good chocolate cake recipe for Dakota’s birthday.

Butter Pecan Cake

This is a very rich cake that requires a can of coconut pecan frosting IN the cake batter! Interesting take.

Caramel Icing

Again, another recipe for caramel icing. This one is from my grandmother Gladah Childs. The other one is the one we usually use though.
