About this Cook
I am a private forester for our county. I have gotten into gardening and canning to reduce food costs for our family. Also because I try to use as much organic stuff as I can.
My favorite things to cook
Baking breads and desserts is a favorite pastime. We raise our own chickens for meat and eggs. My husband hunts deer, so vension is used instead of beef in most recipes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandma's molassess cut-out cookies are a must have for Christmas for our extended family.

Cinnamon Rolls I
These rolls were wonderful. I used only two teaspoons of cinnamon rather than the full tablespoon as directed. I used my bread machine on the pizza dough setting to knead and rise the dough, then placed the cut rolls into a greased 9x13 pan in the fridge overnight. They were done in 15 minutes! For the frosting I used melted butter, a little light karo syrup, powdered sugar, a tad of vanilla and a little real maple syrup. Yum!! Much better than cinnamon rolls from a can and just about as easy. Thanks for the recipe.

Special Buttercream Frosting
This frosting is so smooth it's not even funny! I added a little more vanilla and sugar to suit my tastes, but I did end up halving the whole recipe to frost the top of a 9x13 cake. Delicious.

Best Moist Chocolate Cake
This cake is very moist, but not chocolately enough for my tastes. Not sure if I will try it again with more cocoa or if I should go to another recipe. The sides got a little too brown while the center wasn't done. Anyone know how to prevent this?
