Crock Pot Spiced Nuts

Have you ever bought hot nuts from a street vendor in New York City? It's the best! My daughter, Megan, LOVES nuts, especially sugar-coated ones. I found this recipe on Pinterest and I made a few changes here and there. I won't say it's the fastest way to make these type of nuts, but it certainly is easy. Make sure you are going to be home for several hours, though.

The Best Vanilla Cake Ever!

Full credit for the ultimate vanilla cake and vanilla frosting goes to Rosie from Sweetapolita . Not only were the directions really easy to follow, but I made two batches on two different days and they came out exactly the same AND perfect. I have never made a cake this way before. It was backwards from the way I've usually done it. It almost seemed like making pastry for a minute. The only thing I did different was add 1 Tbs. of vanilla bean paste and then 1 Tbs. of vanilla extract.

Whoopie Pies (Black Moons)

Recipe I found in a church cookbook more than 25 years ago I have very fond memories of eating Black Moons when I was a child. The problem is as I grew up I could not find the recipe that replicated the taste that I remembered. I was constantly searching for just the right recipe. I finally found the exact recipe and it tasted exactly as I had remembered it. I think I was a little shocked at what the ingredients were for the cream. But, you can't beat the taste. I love a huge Whoopie Pie. I soon discovered that I could melt different colored candy wafers and personalize them for special events. It's also fun to change the color of the cream with food coloring. I hope you will love these as much as I do - a little piece of childhood.
