RECIPE: What to do With Chocolate Cake Disaster
Comments (5)Here is what my Mom did with left over cake that got dried out. She would whip up cream and fold in the chunks of cake and freeze it in the ice cube trays that came with our frig. The trays with the removable inserts. Of course, she took out the insert. Absolutely delicious. We couldn't wait for it to get frozen. I grew up on a dairy farm so we had all the cream we wanted....See MoreLong forgotten about cake recipe: Wacky Cake

Comments (17)I am like OldFixer - I have recipes on index cards, printed off from my printer, in folders, binders, etc.! I am so thankful for Pinterest now and have recipes saved on that board in categories. But many years ago before Pinterest I decided that it was too time consuming to type out all my recipes to do an on-line cookbook, so I just sorted the newspaper clipping, written recipes, etc. by category and put them in a large 10 x 13-inch and just wrote the category on the envelope - they are stored in a file cabinet. So if I want a particular "zucchini" recipe, I only have to search that envelope. Appetizers, salads, crock pot, meat dishes, rhubarb recipes, vegetables, etc. But if I am having a holiday dinner such as Thanksgiving, I started a 3-ring binder and put all the recipes I have ever used for that holiday dinner whether it be appetizers, the turkey, side dishes and desserts, and then add a page with the year and menu we had. I use page protectors in that binder and refer to it every year....See MoreLOOKING for: Do you have a favourite Diabetic Xmas cake recipe
Comments (0)I have spent the morning searching sites for a cake to make my hubby for xmas snacks and cannot find anything that looks remotely interesting. He loves fruitcake and I usually do a couple of boiled fruit cakes. I need a recipe that you use all the time and not a link to a site. Can you help as I am ready to bake? The fruit is mixed and waiting. Thanks in advance...See Moreplllog
