Mix it in a bowl, then bake it in a Bundt or loaf pan. This is the easiest honey cake you will ever make! This recipe started out as a 9 x 13 idea. We said, “Let’s see if we can create a 9 x 13 version of a honey cake?!” So we made one….

Dairy Kokosh Cake
This is the dairy, buttery, oozing with chocolate, and dense type of Kokosh Cake that we love. When I was growing up, we always made and enjoyed homemade babka or babka buns, and the recipe that my mother and siblings return to again and again is the one I published in Fresh and Easy Kosher…

Pesach Banana Muffins
At first, I was really skeptical. But these banana muffins turned out to be the most delicious bring-along item. One day during our pre-Pesach prep last year, my daughter came home with a recipe. “I’m making these,” she said. “My friend made them and she said they’re really good!” “Banana muffins?” I thought. “We’re never…

This 9×13 cheesecake is perfect for breakfast and kosher for Pesach! Prep it in a bowl with just a whisk. Last Pesach, I had an epiphany. I would kasher my milchig oven and bake cheesecake.

Funfetti Hamantaschen
Because kids don’t want prune or apricot anyway. We’re going to have a lot of fun today. Can’t you tell? Do sprinkles just make you happy? (Or, at least, do they make your kids happy?) Today, we’re going to make Funfetti Hamantaschen using a really simple hack and we’re really wondering why we never did…
No-Margarine Sugar Cookie
Prefer not using margarine? Or, want to bake and you simply don’t have it on hand? This is a great alternative. It’s a great dough to use for hamantaschen too! There’s lots of reasons why everyone would want an oil-based cookie or hamantaschen. One, it’s simply more convenient. You always have oil in the house,…

If your family loves gingerbread, this is going to be a favorite. Gingersnaps (ginger snaps, ginger cookies, ginger biscuits – whatever you like to call them) have been one of our favorites for ever and ever and ever. There’s actually an internal family debate on which version that I make is the best. One son…
