This is a wonderfully creamy frosting that goes well with pumpkin bread, carrot cake, chocolate cake, on cookies or between cookies. 

This spicy baked dip tastes just like hot chicken wings, but without the mess. It is very addicting, and is perfect for football and tailgating season. Serve with tortilla chips. I take this whenever I have to bring a dish and am always asked for the recipe. 

Whether you're craving chocolate cake at midnight or 3 PM, this made-in-minutes, fudgy microwave version will satisfy your chocolate passions. Just have a fork ready. 

Microwave Chocolate Cake cooks into a light, moist chocolaty dessert. 'A farm wife with four children, I've made this cake many times,' says Mary Brenneman of Tavistock, Ontario. 

Chicken breasts, baked with Parmesan cheese and artichoke hearts, make for a quick and delicious weeknight meal. 

Sofrito is the base for most Puerto Rican dishes, and this one is better than store bought (difficult to find in the stores in the Western United States). This can be added to beans, rice, soups, stews, you name it. 

This is great shredded beef served on tortillas or over rice. Add sour cream, cheese, and fresh cilantro on the side. 

This is a nice soft center sugar cookie. 

These oven-baked meatballs are fast and easy to prepare and very kid friendly. You can serve them with pasta and spaghetti sauce or just eat them with ketchup, as my children do. 

A simple recipe for barbecued halibut. Soy sauce and brown sugar add a special zip that is uncommonly delicious. 

These cookies are great...you get a double dose of chocolate! My kids love them. 

These are just what they say: big, soft, gingerbread cookies. They stay soft, too. My oldest son's favorite. 

Great flavors in this one - escarole, Kalamata olives, lemon juice and capers. Serve as a side dish or top a just-baked potato. Makes two generous serving. 

These cookies are nutritious, as well as delicious. 

This recipe is very versatile and heavily addictive. You can mix and match cake and icing flavors as well as the chocolate coatings. If you want to go the extra mile, cake balls can be rolled in nuts, sprinkles, coconut, etc. or double dipped in white and dark chocolates. Chocolate confectioners' coating is also called Almond Bark in some stores. 

Want a quick and easy Mac n' Cheese that looks like you spent all day working on it? This is the recipe. 

Tomatoes flavored with basil, garlic and oregano go for a brief simmer with tender white cannellini beans and garden-fresh spinach. Serve over hot penne and spoon crumbled bits of feta cheese over the top for a creamy sharp bite with every mouthful. 

A chocolate glaze that sets up hard. Use it on cakes or brownies. 

Light and fluffy icing. Perfect for an angel food cake. You would swear it was a boiled frosting, all the taste, very little effort! I like to change it up a bit and use maple or peppermint extract instead of the vanilla. 

This is the type of frosting that is cooked over the stove, then whipped. This goes well on almost any type of cake.
