Cute and tasty. These mini tarts are filled with creamy and silky Mascarpone cheese and fresh raspberries.

This recipe, though fussy to make, is attractive and tasty. Cheryl Kaufenberg of Darien said it came from a very old Better Homes & Gardens magazine

A show-stopping New York-style cheesecake with citrus-scented filling on a buttery graham crust, crowned with raspberry sauce, peach puree, and fresh fruit. Worth every minute of the wait.

Loaded baked potato soup turns the steakhouse appetizer into a creamy roux-thickened soup with russet potatoes, sharp cheddar, sour cream, crisp bacon, and green onions. Hearty, restaurant-style comfort in a bowl.

Mennonite whole wheat bread sweetened with honey and molasses, made the traditional Pennsylvania way. Four hearty loaves with a tender crumb and rich, slightly sweet flavor that beats any store-bought wheat bread.

Pina colada pound cake folds crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, and coconut rum into a buttery bundt, then soaks the warm cake in a rum-pineapple glaze. Tropical dessert all year.

Salad dressing cranberry muffins use Miracle Whip in place of butter or oil for a strikingly tender crumb. Tart cranberries, bright orange zest, and orange juice concentrate make these holiday-ready.

Lots of flavor, and the recipe is easy to follow. My family loves this dish. Will be making it again for sure.

Buttery and crunchy, they are great for making holiday cookies.

These scones were so easy to make, and they can be kept in a well-sealed bag or container in the freezer for up to at least one month. Not only good for breakfast, but also an easy snack. Just pop one or two in the microwave, and spread with some butter, or apple butter, or any jam. Delicious.

These can be served warm or at room temperature with a pat of unsalted butter. Because there’s so much sweetness inside—from the cranberries, chocolate and orange zest—preserves would be overkill. This holiday recipe is so festive, why not gather some friends to enjoy them with some good coffee or tea before the season gets too busy. Find more recipes on TheNibble.com.

This easy to make blueberry cobbler can be a light and fruity dessert in a hot summer day, or having it as a snack is a good idea too.

Loved this cake very much. The plums became juicy and sweet after baking, which added a great addition to the cake. With a cup of coffee or tea, a perfect afternoon snack.

So good, made these cheddar-onion corn muffins with mostly whole wheat flour and olive oil. Boy. oh boy, weren't they delicious! See the linked recipe below for the healthier version.

Low-fat cornbread made with applesauce instead of butter and egg whites in place of whole eggs. The preheated pan trick delivers a golden, crispy bottom crust every time.
