Honey Cake Maria – Family Recipe

I am very lucky to be surrounded by many excellent bakers in my and my husband’s side of the family, who also love to share their recipes.

I have been baking honey cakes for a very long time now, and love them all, but this one is even lighter in texture and consists of other special ingredients, hence the recipe for Honey Cake Maria.

Apricot Sheet Cake – Recipe

Apricot Cake is a must on our dessert platter, especially when our sons are visiting us for the holidays.

They enjoy most of my baked goods, but this one is their favorite, maybe because they can’t find it anywhere else.

A friend of mine, who is not a big fan of apricots, gave this cake a five-star rating…:-).

Ukrainian Doughnuts – Anna’s Recipe

My mom made the best homemade doughnuts, using her European recipe.  Hers are so much better than the quick recipe I used before. 

Every Christmas Eve my mom joined us for dinner, and always brought in a huge platter of freshly made doughnuts.  We all are still reminiscing about those sweet memories.

Today I will share that recipe with you all, in memory of my mom’s baking and cooking.

Butter Cookies – Recipe

I received this recipe from my sister-in-law, and they are my grandson’s absolute favorite cookies.

I already posted this recipe under a different heading but will rewrite it here for your convenience.

This recipe yields at least 48 cookies, depending on the size of your cookie cutter.
