The Pink Apron

Here is a Halloween spider cookie that requires no baking, mixing or artistic skill whatsoever. Plus, they’re adorable!!

My mom made these cupcakes few weeks ago and shared the idea with me. This is a great idea for a get together because it leaves you with two very different cupcakes without having to make two separate batters.

This is one of the best chocolate cakes I’ve ever tasted! It’s very moist and dark and best of all, it’s one of those one bowl cakes that comes together quickly. Plus, since it’s called a “snack” cake, I feel perfectly justified in eating a piece for an afternoon snack rather than that apple mocking […]

Last week we bought a cake mix with Halloween sprinkles! The box had a picture of a jack-o-lantern, so when my son saw it, he was convinced we were having a jack-o-lantern cake. Rather than disappoint him, I decided to make one. And it was extremely easy.

Canning scares me! ut because I like the idea of being domestic, and I like strawberry jam, I make strawberry freezer jam and store it in ball canning bottles, so it looks like I’m canning something. Win!

Last week, we were out of the house until 6 p.m., so I needed to make dinner in advance. Since pre-made french toast isn’t that appealing, I decided to try french toast in the slow cooker. I don’t think I’ll ever make it piece by piece for dinner again!!

I use this BBQ sauce for everything! It’s so much better than anything you can buy in a bottle and is pretty easy to put together. I’ve also bottled this sauce and given it away as gifts. It’s great to use on chicken, pork or even hamburgers!

This casserole is based on a potato side-dish we had many times growing up. We generally had it with ham… which is why I thought adding ham would make it a good main course.

This is one of my favorite cookie recipes. It’s a recipe easy enough for my kids to help me with, and has a lot of childhood memories. Before my BFF and I could cook, we made these cookies all the time in my mom’s kitchen. Some batches turned out better than others… but we always had fun.

A delicious veggie and bean salsa perfect for a picnic or party!
