French nut cake recipes

We love this quiche. It came out cheesy and just delicious. I used 1% milk instead of whole milk, and it was still very creamy. Of course, if you prefer a richer mouth-feel, you can use half and half.

This recipe is easy, cheap, nutritious, and my four kids (age 1,2,4, and 5) all eat 2 or 3 of them each time I make it. The first time I made it, I had to double the recipe in a hurry because everyone ate so much. It's even good without sauce.

French Meatballs recipe

These are really good. Moist chocolate cupcake with near perfect crumb. As you eat the cupcake the experience is punctuated by the surprise.

This hawaiian banana nut bread is moist, banana-y and absolutely divine.

The combination of orange and spices paired with dark chocolate makes these pretty cookies from Mary LaRock of Waukesha unique and delicious. Their interesting shape enhances any cookie platter.

This is an all-purpose filling that can be used for cookies, bars, etc. I use it most often to fill hamantaschen. Extremely simple and delicious.

Quaker Choc-Oat-Chip Cookies recipe

These buttery and moist yankee doodle cupcakes are absolutely delicious. They are filled with vanilla creme that gives you some yummy surprise in every bite.

This dish comes from Cahors, a town in the southwest of France known for its dark, rough red wine. The sauce is equally good with salmon.

This apple ricotta pie turned out delicious. I used homemade granola instead of the cereal, and it is much lower in fat and calories. Still tasted wonderful.

A special treat that could be used as a quick breakfast on Christmas Day or as a snack during the holidays.

This recipe was made by a neighbor and given to me. He told me to try it and then he would tell me what it was made with. I tried it, loved it, and asked him for the recipe. He went and got it and now i make it all the time. Who knew Saltine crackers and chocolate went so well together!! I would recommend it to anyone. I get people at work who tell me to bring it in all the time. It is loved by everyone who makes it.

Deliciously moist banana nut muffins are great for breakfast. Easy to make, and freeze well. For a even healthier version, use half whole wheat flour to replace half all-purpose flour.

This turned out quite nicely, was surprised at how well it held together considering there was no egg to help bind the ingredients together. We made a vegetarian shallot gravy to go along with it. Nice herby flavor throughout.

Loved it, classic french style, simply prepared with a flavor packed jus. One change I made was to brown the chicken breast in a non-stick pan (and then finish cooking by popping it into the oven) before making the sauce to build extra flavor.
