View postWhile they can be consumed any time of year, gingersnap cookies are my favorite to make in the fall — and well into the holiday season. The crisp autumnal weather calls for a cookie with a similar snap that brings all of the warmth to the table — this gingersnap recipe does just that.

But I can’t help but be in love with the idea of having these snappy cookies with their rich molasses flavor as soon as the leaves start to fall all the way through until the final winter frost.

We actually have 3 air fryers. I have a smaller one from Phillips that we started with. I have since given that to my son since he’s only cooking for 1.
But the more I used the air fryer I realized I really wanted a digital screen. It wasn’t any more expensive, in fact- our XL air fryer from GoWISE was less expensive than the Phillips and I love its ease & extra functions.
Plus it comes with a lot of the extra accessories I like to use when cooking with my fryer.
But I when I started working on my second air fryer book, I wanted to change things up. I picked up this LARGE air fryer that has been wonderful. It has Touch Screen Presets plus it is XL Family Size, which is great!

All you need is a few avocados, and some salsa and you’re on your way to the perfect appetizer. So break out the mortar and pestle (or just use a fork) and get ready to mix up some of the best guacamole ever. Olé!
Do you love guacamole? If you’re like me, you can’t get enough of it. It’s the perfect appetizer for any party, and it’s always a hit when I make it at home.
But sometimes making guacamole can be a little intimidating. You want to make sure that it’s just the right consistency, and that it has the perfect balance of flavors.
Thanks to this easy guacamole recipe, you don’t have to worry about any of that. This recipe is so simple to follow, and it yields delicious guacamole every time. So go ahead and give it a try – your friends and family will thank you!
Guacamole is a savory dip or spread originating in Mexico, typically made from mashed avocado, lime juice, onions, and spices. It is often used as a condiment or side dish.
No, this delicious snack is actually quite easy to make. All you need are some ripe avocados and some salsa.
There are many things you can add to guacamole to give it more flavor or texture. Some common additions include tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeños, and cheese.
Yes, you can make guacamole ahead of time. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve it.
Guacamole will last in the refrigerator for up to two days. After that, it will start to brown and won’t be as fresh-tasting. To delay the browning process, add a spritz of either lemon or lime juice on top.
Yes, this is healthy. Avocados are a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They’re also low in calories and bad fats – but loaded with the good fats your body needs.
To keep guacamole from turning brown, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. You can also add a little lime juice or lemon juice to help prevent browning.
I have found that if you have a sliced avocado, you can wet it with water and then place the plastic wrap directly on top of it and store it in the refrigerator. This has worked quite well for us.
I have not tried it with guacamole because the texture isn’t smooth. The idea is that the water creates a layer that keeps air from getting to the avocado – which is what turns it brown. I would imagine if you tried to add a layer of water to the top of a bowl of guacamole, it would dilute and ruin it.
You could try just spraying the top of it with a mist of water and then placing the plastic wrap directly on top. If you give this a try – please let me know how it worked.
Avocados turn brown when they’re exposed to air. This is why it’s important to store this recipe in an airtight container.
The best way to ripen an avocado is to leave it on the counter at room temperature. Once it’s ripe, you can store it in the refrigerator to help prevent browning.
When it comes to recipes like this we like to have a full spread. Here are some of the other recipes we include on our appetizer table.

If you’re a fan of bourbon, you’re going to love this cake. It’s got a delicious, rich flavor that pairs perfectly with the sweet vanilla and bourbon glaze.
We love to serve this cake at all our fall celebrations. I especially love it in place of the pie when we all gather for Thanksgiving.
Absolutely! The best part of bundt cakes is their versatility. You can substitute the glaze in this recipe with your favorite flavor, homemade or otherwise.
If you want to swap out the bourbon with an extract flavor of your choosing, that will work too.
This cake can be made in a 13×9 baking pan. Bake for 20-25 then do a toothpick test to check for doneness.
This cake can also be made into cupcakes. Fill each well 3/4 of the way full and bake for 15-20 then do the toothpick test to check for doneness.
Yes, this cake can be stored at room temperature. Just make sure to wrap it tightly with plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container.
I like to keep the cake in the refrigerator so it will last a bit longer. Then when serving, I microwave it for a few seconds so it is nice and warm.
Depending on the size of your slices, this cake will yield approximately 12-16 slices. That being said – in our house, it is “go BIG or go home”. So we usually split the cake between the 5 of us for 2 nights.
You should make sure that you grease your pan really well with a flour and grease/cooking-spray mixture to keep the cake from sticking. The ridges in the pan are most susceptible to this and they are the most delicate parts of the cake.
Make sure that you really work your grease into these crevices for the best results. I recommend using Baker’s Release.
Bakers release is a combination of oil, flour, and shortening that makes releasing cakes and other baked goods almost effortless.
To make Bakers Release – it is as simple as 1,1 & 1.
Mix the ingredients together – whisking well. Store in an airtight container in the pantry or refrigerator. When ready to use, dip a pastry brush into the mixture and spread it over the cake pan.
Place this cake in an airtight container or wrap it with plastic wrap. It can be stored for up to 3 days at room temperature or up to a week in the refrigerator.

Mexican Wedding Cookies are a deliciously sweet cookie made with crushed pecans, coated in sugar, with a tender, buttery crumble.
Mexican wedding cookies are a delicious, buttery treat that is perfect for any occasion! These cookies are easy to make and always disappear quickly.
You’ll love the sweet, nutty flavor of these cookies – they’re irresistible!
When the holidays come around we love to get in the kitchen and bake. Often times we stick to our classic cookie favorites and then add in a handful of new recipes.
Most of the time we find really good, classic recipes that have been forgotten about in the bottom of grandma’s old recipe tin. These Mexican Wedding Cookies are one of those that we are so happy to have found.
While this recipe is a spin off of our super easy snowball cookies – with the end result being quite similar, this recipe is as classic as it gets.
I know you’ll love them as much as we do. You holiday cookie platter won’t be complete with out them.
These are sugar-coated butter cookies that are popular in Mexico, as well as the southwestern United States. The cookies usually have a pecan or walnut inside, and are sometimes dipped in chocolate. They are also known as “polvorones” or “tuiles.”
There is some debate over the origin of these cookies. Some say they originated in Spain, while others believe they came from Mexico. It is most likely that they were brought to Mexico by Spanish settlers, and then adopted by the locals.
The name “Mexican wedding cookie” is a bit of a misnomer, as these cookies are not traditionally served at weddings in Mexico. In fact, they are more commonly served at Christmas time.
However, the name likely comes from the fact that these cookies are often served at weddings in the southwestern United States.
Yes, you can make these cookies ahead of time. I recommend that you make the dough up until the chilling point. Then keep the rolled dough in the fridge until you are ready to make them.
Then bake and roll in the sugar. I do not recommend refrigerating the baked and sugar-coated cookies. The sugar does not do well in the cool and damp climate of the refrigerator.
Polvorones are a type of Mexican wedding cookie that is made with flour, sugar, butter, and nuts. They are usually round or oval in shape and have a sandy texture.
The easiest way is to place in a large airtight container & store at room temperature. I like a large plastic bowl with a lid or a zip-top bag works great too.
Yes – just leave them out. The dough will be more moist, but taste more like a sugar cookie.
Yes – chill the dough before baking. If you want to make our similar recipe for snowball cookies – that one does not require chilling the dough.
The dough needs to be chilled of 20 minutes – unlike some recipes that need to be chilled for several hours or even overnight. Chill the dough in the fridge, wash up the dishes and before you know it, it is ready to be baked.

Here are a few options for recipes to serve with this classic cake…
Yes, you can double this cake recipe. However, you will want to bake the cakes in 9×13 pans side-by-side. Please don’t try to double up the cake batter into one larger pan. This will not only change the baking time but how the cake rises and the final consistency.

While both white and purple cauliflower can be used interchangeably in recipes, there is a slight difference in taste. White cauliflower is slightly sweeter, while purple cauliflower has a nuttier flavor.
Yes, you can use frozen cauliflower florets for this recipe. Just make sure that they are thawed before cooking. If your cauliflower florets are air fried while frozen, then they will be too mushy when you’re done following this recipe.

But the more I used the air fryer I realized I really wanted a digital screen. It wasn’t any more expensive, in fact- our XL air fryer from GoWISE was less expensive than the Phillips and I love its ease & extra functions.
Plus it comes with a lot of the extra accessories I like to use when cooking with my fryer.
But I when I started working on my second air fryer book, I wanted to change things up. I picked up this LARGE air fryer that has been wonderful. It has Touch Screen Presets plus it is XL Family Size, which is great!

Looking for a delicious dessert that is both easy to make and sure to impress? These Pecan Pie Cheesecake Bars are the perfect solution!

If you’re looking for the perfect Thanksgiving dessert, look no further than these pecan pie cheesecake bars! They are absolutely delicious and sure to please everyone at your table.
Plus, they’re easy to make so you can spend more time enjoying your holiday. Give them a try this year – you won’t be disappointed!
Pecan Pie Cheesecake Bars can be stored in the refrigerator for up to four days.
This recipe will still work with low-fat cream cheese. But keep in mind that the creamy cheesecake texture comes from the fat. So the final recipe probably won’t have the same consistency if you are substituting ingredients.
I have not made this recipe by subbing in a no-bake cheesecake filling. So I can’t say definitively that it would work, but I can’t see why not.
I do have this no-bake pecan pie cheesecake that could be used – but it may or may not be too much filling for this crust recipe. It may just be easier to make that recipe instead of trying to adapt this one.
Yes, you can freeze Pecan Pie Cheesecake Bars. To do so, wrap them tightly in cling wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container. They will keep in the freezer for up to two months. When you are ready to eat them, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator.
Of course. Just combine 1-1/2 cups finely ground cookie crumbs with the other crumb ingredients and toss with a fork until all the crumbs are moist.
Then press firmly into the bottom of the pan. These are great with an Oreo crust and also with a Vanilla Wafer crust.
You can replace the corn syrup with 1/2 cup of sugar dissolved in 2 tbsp of water.
Pecan pie is a dessert that typically contains a filling of corn syrup or molasses, sugar, eggs, butter, and chopped pecans. The pie is usually baked in a pie dish, and the filling may also include vanilla extract.
If your bars are sticking to the pan, it is likely because you did not grease the pan or parchment well enough. Be sure to grease the pan well with butter so that the bars will not stick.
Yes, you can make the graham cracker crust without a food processor. To do so, you will need to finely crush the graham crackers by hand. You can also use a rolling pin to crush the crackers.
Once they are finely crushed, mix them with the melted butter and sugar until well combined. Then press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.

Cake cookies are one of my favorite things. Today I’m going to share with you a cookie recipe that friends and family, young and old, will absolutely love. Imagine a bite of pure, chocolaty bliss, soft on the inside with a slightly crispy outer layer covered in a snowy veil of confectioner’s sugar.
That’s what you get with these Chocolate Cool Whip Cookies – a combo of cake mix and whipped topping that results in a fluffy, dreamy cookie. Ready to dive into this easy recipe? Let’s roll (in sugar)!

When the weather starts to turn a bit brisk, I am immediately ready for some classic comfort food. This easy chicken pot pie is one of my favorite comfort foods to make once the leaves start to fall.
While there are plenty of pre-packaged versions at the grocery store, there is nothing quite like a homemade chicken pot pie. The juicy chicken and crisp veggies are enveloped in a creamy sauce and wrapped in a savory, flaky crust — it’s like a big, warm hug on a plate.
Some comfort foods can be time-consuming (I’m looking at you, lasagna) but this easy recipe comes together quickly. It has minimal prep time and since you’re only using one pan on the stovetop, cleanup is done in no time.
The next time you’re looking for a simple chicken pot pie recipe with all the classic flavors, try this one. I guarantee your whole family will be asking for seconds (or more!).
Sprinkling grains like dried breadcrumbs or cornmeal will help prevent the crust from becoming soggy from the filling during baking.
Chicken pot pie is a balanced meal that can be a part of a healthy diet when consumed in moderation. You can also adjust the ingredients to fit your lifestyle.
Instead of cooking chicken breast ahead of time, pick up a rotisserie chicken or pre-packaged shredded chicken at the grocery store. You can also buy frozen diced onions instead of chopping your own — just warm them in the microwave and drain off any excess moisture.
You can make the filling for chicken pot pie ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking it in the crust.
It’s quite possible you won’t have leftovers after this delicious meal, but if you do there are a few ways to store it.
Leftover chicken pot pie can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container, or covered with aluminum foil for 3 to 5 days.
Chicken pot pie can be frozen whole after cooking, or in slices — after it comes to room temperature, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or store slices in zip-top bags. It can be reheated directly from the freezer for about 35 minutes on 375 in the oven.
Chicken pot pie is a hearty, complete meal all on its own but you can easily add some savory (or slightly sweet) sides to dress it up.

View postThis Baked Mac and Cheese is not your childhood mac and cheese. It’s rich, decadent, and made with a velvety cheese sauce.
Is there anything more comforting than a dish of creamy, cheesy baked mac and cheese? This classic dish can be tailored to your taste buds by adding your favorite ingredients.
Whether you like yours with bacon, lobster, or veggies, we’ve got the perfect base recipe for you. So gather up your family and friends and get ready for some serious comfort food!
If you’re like me, you grew up eating boxed mac and cheese. And while that’s still a favorite of mine, I wanted to create a recipe that gives it a homemade feel.
Now that the weather is changing here in North Idaho, I’m really craving all the comfort foods. This baked mac and cheese is simple to make, and the perfect comfort food for chilly nights. (Be sure to try our Frito Chili Pie too!)
Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! 🙂
Mac and cheese can be stored in the fridge for up to four days. Be sure to place it in an airtight container before chilling. When you’re ready to enjoy your mac and cheese again, simply reheat it in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
There are a few reasons why your baked mac and cheese might be coming out dry.
First, make sure you’re using the right amount of cheese – too little and the dish will be dry, while too much can make it greasy.
Second, be sure to cook your pasta al dente – if it’s overcooked, it will absorb too much of the sauce and become dry.
Finally, make sure you’re using enough milk – a lack of moisture will result in a dry dish.
These simple adjustments should result in a creamy, delicious dish.
If you’re looking for a quick and easy meal, mac and cheese is always a great option. But what if you have leftovers? Can you freeze mac and cheese?
The answer is yes, you can freeze mac and cheese. However, it’s important to note that the texture of the dish will change after being frozen and thawed. The pasta will become softer and the sauce may separate. For this reason, it’s best to eat frozen mac and cheese within 2 months.
When reheating frozen mac and cheese, be sure to add a little extra milk or cream to help recombine the sauce. You can also add a little shredded cheese on top before reheating to help give the dish some extra flavor.
If you’re looking for a shortcut when making baked mac and cheese, you might be tempted to use pre-shredded cheese. However, this can actually affect the taste and texture of your dish.
Pre-shredded cheeses often don’t taste as great as fresh cheese, and they also don’t melt as well. This can result in a less-than-ideal finished product.
For the best results, take the extra time to shred your own cheese for this recipe. It will make a big difference in the final dish!
Yes, you can make this dish ahead of time and store it in the fridge for the next day. Then prepare as directed in the recipe.
Be sure to place leftovers in an airtight container before chilling. When you’re ready to enjoy your mac and cheese again, simply reheat it in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
Not necessarily. This recipe uses the baking process to melt all the cheese we are mixing in. If you would like to make a macaroni and cheese recipe that doesn’t require baking, I recommend you try our super easy mac and cheese recipe that is ready in about 20 minutes and is made on the stovetop.
If you want your mac and cheese to have a crispy top, then you should not cover it with foil while it bakes. Allowing the cheese to be exposed to the heat will help it brown and create a delicious crust.
However, if you’re more interested in creamy mac and cheese, then covering it with foil during baking will help prevent the top from getting too brown or dry.

Candy corn is a classic Halloween treat, and these jello shots are the perfect way to enjoy it! This recipe is easy to make, and it’s sure to be a hit at your next party.

Fall just wouldn’t be the same without enjoying a little candy corn. So we decided to create a candy corn themed shot that is sure to delight all your guests this fall holiday season.
Candy corn is a type of confectionery made primarily from sugar, corn syrup, and flavoring. The candy is created by combining sugar, cornstarch, and other ingredients to form a dough, which is then formed into shapes and coated with food coloring.
Candy corn is one of the most popular Halloween candies in the United States, and is often used in decorations and as a treat for Trick-or-Treaters.
If you’re looking for a fun and festive way to enjoy candy corn, why not try making Candy Corn Jello Shots? These boozy treats are sure to be a hit at any Halloween party!
These candy corn Jello shots are a great way to enjoy the fall season.
They are perfect for any fall party or get-together.
They are colorful, fun, and a hit with everyone who tries them.
This Jello shot recipe is a fun way to get into the fall spirit.
The recipe includes layers of orange and yellow Jello, Knox gelatin, and whipped cream.
Whipped cream vodka is used to make the shot extra festive and delicious.
These treats are cute, easy, and delicious.
These treats may become your new party favorite.
You may end up with really light white lines in between each layer due to the whipped cream settling in each layer.
There’s really no way around this unless you skip the whipped cream, but the whipped cream helps define each layer since they give a transparent color otherwise and the orange does taint both the white and yellow layers.
Yes, you can make jello shots several days in advance. Simply prepare the jello according to the recipe instructions, then pour it into your shot glasses and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Yes, you can use any type of alcohol in your jello shots. However, we recommend using vodka, rum, or tequila as they mix well with the jello and provide a smooth flavor. Just don’t increase the measurements as it will keep the jello from setting.
To remove the jello shots from the shot glasses, simply run a sharp knife around the edge of each glass and then invert it onto a plate. The jello shots should easily come out of the glasses.
Jello shots can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days as long as you have them properly covered. However, we recommend consuming them within 24 hours for the best flavor.
Yes, you can make your shots in smaller shot glasses if you prefer. Simply adjust the amount you add to each accordingly.
Yes, you can make jello shots with fruit punch by substituting the fruit punch for the cold water in the recipe.

Pumpkin pound cake is the perfect autumn dessert. The rich, spiced flavors of pumpkin are complemented by the moist, buttery texture of a pound cake.
This recipe is easy to follow and results in a delicious cake that everyone will love. Serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the perfect end to your meal.
Is there anything more comforting than a warm slice of pumpkin pound cake on a cool autumn day? This recipe is perfect for those days when you want something sweet, but don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen.
The best part is that it only takes a short time to make! So go ahead and indulge yourself with this delicious cake. You deserve it!
Pound cake is a type of cake that has been around for centuries. The name comes from the fact that the original recipe called for a pound each of flour, sugar, and eggs. Over time, the recipe has evolved to include different flavors and ingredients, but the basic concept remains the same.
Pound cake is a popular choice for many occasions because it is relatively easy to make and can be customized to suit any taste. There are endless possibilities when it comes to flavors and toppings, so everyone can find a pound cake that they will enjoy.
If you are looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cake, pound cake is a great option. Whether you are looking for a classic recipe or something with a twist, there is sure to be a pound cake that will suit your needs.
-Room temperature (covered) for up to five days
-Refrigerated for up to one week
-Freeze for up to three months
You will need sifted powdered confectioners sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. Whisk the ingredients together until smooth. Add more milk or icing sugar to make a thicker or thinner glaze. Finally, add a handful of chopped nuts for texture (optional).
I have found that these inexpensive metal loaf pans work perfectly for this recipe. You can also use glass if that is what you have on hand.
I understand that you might not keep pumpkin pie spice on hand – or maybe you used so much last season that you may have run out. No problem – just blend the following ingredients together and you will have your own homemade pumpkin pie spice.
Pumpkin Pie Mix is a mixture of pumpkin puree, sweetener and spices combined that is used to make pumpkin pie. Pumpkin Puree is a pureed form of pumpkin and can be used in recipes that call for canned pumpkin. It does not contain any other ingredients, it is just pureed pumpkin.
The recipe calls for pumpkin puree because it does not contain all the additional ingredients in the pie filling. Pumpkin pie filling can also be used in this recipe, however, most people think that it makes the dessert too sweet. I prefer to stick to puree.
There are many different pumpkin pound cake topping ideas that you can use to make your cake even more delicious. Here are some of the most popular ones:
If you love pound cake as we do – you don’t want to miss these other flavors here!
Here are a few options for recipes to serve with this pumpkin pound cake…
Yes, this cake does fine when it is frozen. Be sure to cover it or wrap it tightly in a freezer-safe wrap and thaw completely before serving. Typically I try to keep the loaf whole if I plan to freeze so that the inside doesn’t dry out. But if you wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, then in foil, and then place it in a zip-top bag, a cut loaf should do fine in the freezer.
You can make this pumpkin cake with either canned pumpkin or cooked fresh pumpkin. Make sure you are using pumpkin puree and NOT pumpkin pie filling because they are not the same thing.
I stock up on cans of Libby’s 100% pure pumpkin puree at the end of every season, so I can start making glorious pumpkin everything in August and September.
But keep in mind that if you are using fresh pumpkin puree, you want to make sure it has been drained WELL so that it doesn’t add too much liquid to the batter for this pound cake.

Biscoff is a cookie butter spread made from ground, spiced biscuits by the Lotus brand. It is called Speculoos in some European countries.
Biscoff cookies were first created in Belgium in the early 1800s. The cookies were originally made by bakers who used leftover bread dough to make small, hard biscuits that were perfect for dunking in coffee.
The Lotus brand was created in 1932, and the company began selling Biscoff cookies in jars as a way to keep the cookies fresh longer. In 2007, Lotus introduced a cookie butter spread made from Biscoff cookies, and it quickly became a popular pantry staple.
Today, you can find Biscoff cookie butter spread in most major supermarkets as well as online. If you want to make your own Biscoff cupcakes at home, check out this recipe!
You can store these cupcakes in an airtight container for up to 3 days. And you can even pop them into the fridge if you make them ahead of time then take them out about 2 hours before serving.
Sometimes it can be difficult to find Biscoff cookies in the store. But don’t fret – you can make your own. Check out my recipe for Homemade Biscoff Cookies. You can bake the cookies, then turn them into cookie butter for this recipe. They pair perfectly with morning coffee or just about anything.
Yes, any speculoos cookie butter will do! Lotus cookie butter is a spread made from Lotus cookies. It is similar to peanut butter but has a unique flavor that is perfect for baking.
Belgian brown sugar gives Biscoff a caramel flavor.
If you want to make these cupcakes ahead of time, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months. Just be sure to thaw them out before you frost and serve them.
The Biscoff buttercream can be made a couple of days in advance, then stored covered in an airtight container in the fridge. When you’re ready to frost the cupcakes, let the buttercream soften at room temperature and use a mixer to re-mix it. You can also add in a splash of milk to soften it up.
You can certainly forgo coring the cupcakes and adding the cookie butter to the center. Or you can change up the cupcake flavor and leave out the cookie butter in the cupcake batter, try using just vanilla or plain chocolate cupcake instead.
Yes – you can make this into a cake. Just follow the baking directions for your desired cake size on the back of the box only using the batter alterations you see here.
Bake until the center springs back when gently pressed. Cool completely before removing them from the pans. Then you can decorate with the Biscoff buttercream frosting.

This is the best and easiest way to make Turkey Gravy. It’s the perfect Thanksgiving, Christmas, or holiday side dish to pair with turkey.
Turkey gravy is a classic Thanksgiving dish that is easy to make and can be tailored to your taste. In this recipe, we will show you how to make a basic turkey gravy using pan drippings and flour.
You can add additional ingredients such as herbs, onions, or mushrooms to give your gravy a personal touch. This recipe is perfect for those who are new to making gravy – it’s simple and straightforward. So let’s get started!
If there’s one thing that can make Thanksgiving dinner even better, it’s gravy. This easy turkey gravy recipe is perfect for making ahead of time, so you can focus on the rest of the meal.
But honestly, you don’t have to wait for the holiday season to make this gravy recipe. I like having gravy on a multitude of recipes throughout the year – so we make this all of the time.
You won’t believe how simple it is to make from scratch. No pre-packaged envelope full of additives and preservatives. This recipe is so much better!
Turkey gravy is a type of sauce made from turkey or chicken stock, butter, flour, and sometimes other ingredients.
Making your gravy in advance is a great way to save time on Thanksgiving Day. Not only will it save you time, but it will also ensure that your gravy is perfectly cooked and flavorful. (keep in mind that it can be difficult to use the drippings for this recipe ahead of time if you are not cooking the turkey until several days later)
There are a few things to keep in mind when making your gravy in advance. First, make sure that all of your ingredients are fresh. This will help to ensure that your gravy is flavorful and tasty.
Second, cook the gravy completely before storing it. This will prevent any bacteria from growing and will also help to keep the flavor intact.
Finally, store the gravy in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or in the freezer for up to three months.
When you are ready to serve the gravy, simply reheat it in a small saucepan or in the microwave until it is hot and bubbly.
A roux is a combination of fat and flour used while cooking to make a thickened sauce or gravy. A classic roux recipe contains equal parts butter to flour (1/4 cup butter to 1/4 cup four).
Since our turkey gravy is a roux gravy, keep in mind it will continue to thicken as it cools. If it has thickened too much, just add a little more liquid before it hits the table.
Generally, gravy made with pan drippings does not need any more seasonings as all of those pan juices contain all the salt, pepper, and flavor. It’s important to taste-test it once it’s done and save adding any extra seasoning at the end.
If you don’t have the turkey drippings on hand, don’t worry! You can still make delicious gravy without it.
Replace the drippings in the recipe with chicken or turkey stock. You may need to add more seasonings at the end since the stock doesn’t have all of the flavors that the drippings would add to the finished gravy recipe.
If you want to make a gluten-free gravy, you can substitute the flour for gluten-free flour. This will change the texture of the gravy, but it will still be delicious.
If you want to make a dairy-free gravy, you can substitute the butter with lard or bacon grease. This will change the flavor of the gravy, but it will still be delicious.
There are a few things you can do to thicken your gravy. If it is too thick, add broth a tablespoon or two at a time. If it is too thin, mix one tablespoon of melted butter with one tablespoon of flour and whisk into the gravy. Now, if it is lumpy, use your strainer!
In my opinion, gravy goes with just about anything. However – you don’t want to miss the other holiday side dishes linked further down in this post. But if you want the VERY BEST turkey and main dish holiday recipes – be sure to check these out too!
If you have any turkey gravy left over after your feast, it can be stored in the fridge for up to a week. Simply place it in a covered container or jar and pop it in the fridge. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, simply reheat it gently over low heat while whisking occasionally to prevent the sauce from breaking.
You can also freeze your turkey gravy for up to three months. Again, place it in a covered container or jar and then into the freezer. When you’re ready to use it, thaw overnight in the fridge and then reheat gently as mentioned above.
Yes, that should work. You might end up with a slightly different texture. Also, you may end up needing to add more liquid or more cornstarch to reach the right consistency.

Tender and juicy Slow Cooker Turkey Breast is the perfect crockpot dish for Thanksgiving or Christmas. So simple, great for beginners!
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and if you’re like me, you’re planning your holiday meal early. This year, forget the oven and try using a slow cooker instead.
Slow cookers are great for cooking turkey because they keep the meat moist and ensure that it doesn’t get dried out. Plus, they free up your oven for other dishes.
Follow this step-by-step guide to make a delicious slow cooker turkey breast this holiday season.
Slow cooker turkey breast is definitely one of the easiest ways to cook a turkey breast. Plus, it’s really moist and delicious.
I love this recipe because it is so simple. I really wish we had it when we were first learning how to make a holiday meal 30 years ago. This is almost as easy as dump and go because you can just place the veggies along with the seasoned turkey in the slow cooker and leave it to cook until it is ready.
There isn’t a lot of prep or additional steps. So simple – anyone can do it.
When it comes to turkey, it is always better to have too much than too little. No one wants to run out of turkey on Thanksgiving! However, how much turkey per person do you need?
The USDA recommends 1/2 pound (227 grams) of meat per person. However, this is a very safe quantity if you want to be sure to have enough and plenty for leftovers. Instead, I’m keeping the nutrition info reasonably realistic by choosing 6-8 ounces per serving.
One whole turkey breast will feed about 6-8 people, depending on how many other dishes are being served. If you’re serving a lot of other food, you may want to consider getting two smaller breasts instead of one large one.
When it comes to leftovers, plan on about 1/2 cup (120 ml) of cooked turkey per person. This will give you enough for sandwiches and other dishes without having too much leftover Turkey Day food!
The best way for a turkey to be cooked is with high heat, which will kill all the bacteria in the turkey. The USDA recommends cooking your turkey at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes per pound of weight when using a conventional oven.
When cooking with a slow cooker, the heat and steam trapped under the lid will help to cook the turkey. Try not to open the lid too often to check on it.
Slow cooking of a turkey breast can be done until the internal temp reaches 165 degrees.
It takes about 24-48 hours for a turkey breast to thaw in the refrigerator. To speed up the process, you can place the turkey breast in a cold water bath and change the water every 30 minutes. I don’t recommend thawing in the microwave.
Yes, you can slow cook a skin-on turkey breast. However, the skin will not be as crispy as if it were roasted in the oven.
While you can do this – that doesn’t mean that you should. I highly recommend that you don’t try to do this with a frozen turkey breast.
When cooking with a slow cooker – the meat will sit at an unsafe temperature for far too long when cooking slowly. So this could make you and your guests quite sick. It also will make the cooking process VERY long.
This won’t result in a very good meal. You will likely have dry, tough turkey on the outside and potentially unsafe turkey on the inside. Please use a fresh or fully thawed turkey for this recipe.
While this turkey breast is very versatile and can be served with just about anything – here is a list of our favorite recipes that we pair with this great main dish.
PRO TIP: After the turkey breast is cooked, it may be baked under a broiler for about 4 minutes to get a crispy outer layer (this isn’t required).
PLEASE BE SURE TO DISINFECT YOUR SINK AND THE SURROUNDING COUNTERTOPS AFTER RINSING THE TURKEY. While I don’t typically recommend rinsing poultry because it just spreads any microbes around your kitchen – when it comes to turkey, you need to at least rinse off the extra juices in the packaging.
Don’t worry – all the microbes will cook out – but the sink and any areas where things could have splashed will need to be properly disinfected. Use a wipe or spray and be sure to leave it on for the recommended time so you aren’t spreading things around your kitchen.
You bet. We like to keep the leftovers in the fridge for a couple of days for quick and easy meals. But if it looks like we aren’t going to be able to eat it all within 3-4 days – then I toss the remaining leftovers in a zip-top bag and freeze it for up to 2 months.
It’s great to add it to a last-minute dinner-like soup in the Instant Pot. I don’t even have to thaw it first.
The most important thing to remember when using a meat thermometer is that it needs to be in the thickest part of the meat since that will take the longest to heat all the way through and come to the proper temperature.
The tip of a digital thermometer should be inserted into the center of a large roast, turkey, or other whole bird. The probe should not touch the bone or any other cold spot.
Insert the probe slowly and carefully until it touches an internal part of the meat and takes its reading without touching or moving any internal parts such as bones or fat.
When it comes to turkey breast, you have the option of using a boneless or bone-in turkey breast. Both options will work for this recipe, but the bone-in turkey breast will take more time to cook.

View postOreo Balls – Oreo Truffles are an easy no-bake treat made with just 3 ingredients and can be decorated for any holiday. They taste SO GOOD!
Oreo Balls are a sweet and simple dessert perfect for any occasion. If you’re looking for a quick and easy dessert that will impress your friends, look no further than Oreo Balls.
This simple recipe only requires three ingredients and takes just minutes to make. Plus, who can resist a sweet and creamy ball of chocolate and Oreos?
Whether you’re hosting a party or just need a sweet snack for movie night, these Oreo Balls are sure to satisfy your cravings.
Do you love Oreos? Who doesn’t, right? Well, have you ever made Oreo Balls? They are one of my favorite things to make!
You just mix together some Oreos and cream cheese, roll them into balls, and dip them in melted chocolate. They are so good! And they’re really easy to make too. If you’re looking for a quick and easy dessert idea, try making Oreo Balls!
I can tell you that when I make these for the neighbors each year for the holidays, they always send me a message about how much they enjoy them. Then about a day later they are messaging me asking if I would make them some more.
These are always a hit – no matter how you decorate them. They are so simple to make and CRAZY GOOD!
There are three different types of Oreo cookie balls – snowmen, Christmas Tree, and easier dipping. Each type of Oreo cookie ball has a different decoration – white chocolate for snowmen, white chocolate and decorating gels for Christmas Trees, and cinnamon candy for easier dipping.
If you’re looking to keep your Oreo cookie balls fresh, the best way to do so is by storing them in the refrigerator. This will help to keep them from drying out or becoming stale.
You can also freeze them for longer-term storage. Just be sure to use an airtight container so they don’t get freezer burn.
We used white chocolate candy melts for this recipe. But you can also use almond bark, Candi Quik, melting wafers, or even high-quality white chocolate. If you use white chocolate chips, you may need to add a tablespoon or two of coconut oil to get it to melt smoothly without seizing up.
Oreo balls can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 2 months. This is a great way to store them if you want to have them on hand for a quick snack or dessert.
You can also freeze them in different shapes and sizes, which can be fun if you are looking for a variety of ways to enjoy them. Oreo balls can also be frozen in different flavors, such as chocolate or peanut butter.
And finally, they can also be frozen in different colors, which can add some visual interest to your Oreo ball experience.
If you want to get really festive with your Oreo balls, you can dip them in white chocolate and add red and green sprinkles, or even crushed candy canes. You could also add holiday candies for a Christmassy touch.
*if using double-stuffed Oreos – reduce the cream cheese by half.
According to our nutrition calculator in the recipe card, one Oreo cookie ball has 71 calories and 6g net carbohydrates. However, I came up with slightly different results when I entered this into my Carb Manager app. So please do your own calculations if you are watching your macros closely.
It is imperative that the mixture is chilled for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour & that the finished truffles stay chilled. It is important to keep the cream cheese chilled for food safety.
Yes -you sure can. These Oreo truffles can be made with any type of Oreo cookie you prefer.
If you want to make Oreo balls ahead of time, the best way to do it is to prepare the filling and then freeze it until you’re ready to use it. This will help keep the balls from drying out.
To store Oreo balls, place them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Oreo cookie balls will keep for 3 weeks in the refrigerator or 2 months in the freezer. Oreo cookie balls should always be stored in a covered container.
This is important – just because the package says “sprinkles” doesn’t necessarily mean that it is in fact sprinkles.
I see a lot of people using colored sanding sugar that is labeled as sprinkles.
This will not work as well because when that sugar gets wet – like when mixed into a moist dough or when placed in the refrigerator, it will sweat & the color will bleed out.
When your chocolate wafers become chunky rather than creamy, it is said that the chocolate is seized. This is typically due to overheating or contact with water or steam.
In the first case, the chocolate is just burning from excess heat, but in the second case, there is a negative reaction between the chocolate (which is waxy and has many oils that are hydrophobic, or “water-fearing”) and the water, causing the components of the chocolate to separate.
Be sure to refer to the package directions when melting chocolate to prevent this from happening.
If you want to make Oreo balls, you’ll need a few things. First, you’ll need a package of Oreos. Next, you’ll need some cream cheese. And finally, you’ll need a Wilton Dipping tool. (affiliate link to it below)
The Wilton Dipping tool is a handy tool that makes it easy to dip candy or cookie truffles into chocolate. It’s part of a three-piece set that also includes a fork and a spoon. With this set, you can easily dip your Oreo balls into melted chocolate without making a mess.
Once your Oreo balls are dipped in chocolate, you can let them cool on a sheet of wax paper. Then, enjoy!
Chocolate chips or chocolate candy melts are the best type of chocolate to use for dipping. Shortening or coconut oil can be added to make the chocolate chips easier to dip. A small amount of shortening or coconut oil is best when melting the chocolate chips in the microwave.

This moist and tender Pumpkin Spice Cake is topped with a rich cream cheese frosting. It’s perfect for fall baking and holiday parties.
Fall is in the air and that means one thing: pumpkin spice season! This year, ditch the same old pumpkin pie and try your hand at this delicious pumpkin spice cake.
It’s moist, flavorful, and perfect for any autumn gathering. Best of all, it’s easy to make – just follow these simple steps and you’ll be ready to go!
Is it really fall if you don’t have a pumpkin spice cake in your house? I think not. This is my go-to recipe for the season. It’s easy to make and always turns out delicious.
Plus, the best part is that you can customize it however you want! So whether you’re looking for something classic or something a little more adventurous, this recipe has you covered. I know you’ll love it!
Pumpkin spice cake is a dessert that has been around for decades. It was first created in the 1940s by Chef James Beard who used pumpkin pie spices to create a cake.
This dessert became popular in the 1990s when Starbucks introduced it as a seasonal beverage option. They also packaged their pumpkin spice latte mix to sell at grocery stores and supermarkets.
The pumpkin spice cake is a type of dessert that is very popular during the Fall and Winter seasons. The popularity of this dessert has been steadily increasing over time, with many people indulging in it as early as September, or even August.
There are many reasons why pumpkin spice cake is so popular, but one of the most significant reasons is that it tastes great.
You can make this recipe as cupcakes! Simply follow the same oven temperature, fill the cupcake wrappers 2/3 full, and bake 18-21 minutes or until baked through. OR you can check out my pumpkin spice cupcakes recipe. You’ll get the same great flavor and texture in a convenient cupcake form!
If you want to make a double batch of this pumpkin spice cake, simply double all of the ingredients. The bake time will remain the same as long as you divide the ingredients into two cake pans and bake them side-by-side in the oven.
Yes, pumpkin spice cake can be made in advance and stored in the fridge. You’ll need to let it cool completely before serving.
Again, this is a matter of personal preference. The cream cheese frosting will need to be kept chilled in between servings.
We think this cake is best served at room temperature, but it will be just fine if served chilled too. Simply remove it from the fridge about an hour before you plan to serve.
If you want to try making this pumpkin spice cake recipe using homemade puree, it’s important to know that the results may not be exactly the same. This is because store-bought puree is usually more watery than homemade puree.
As a result, your cake may not be as moist and fluffy. However, if you’re willing to experiment, we recommend giving it a try! Who knows, you might just end up with a delicious pumpkin spice cake that’s even better than the original.
If you’re making this recipe gluten-free, use a gluten-free all-purpose flour substitute and not almond flour. The pumpkin spice cake with cream cheese frosting is incredibly moist and is slightly denser than regular cake, so I think the batter could be made gluten-free.
You can make this pumpkin spice cake with either canned pumpkin or cooked fresh pumpkin. Make sure you are using pumpkin puree and NOT pumpkin pie filling because they are not the same thing.
I stock up on cans of Libby’s 100% pure pumpkin puree at the end of every season, so I can start making glorious pumpkin everything in August and September.
Pumpkin Pie Spice is made of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. You can use it to make your own pumpkin pie spice by mixing these spices together.
Pumpkin Pie Mix is a mixture of pumpkin puree, sweetener and spices combined that is used to make pumpkin pie. Pumpkin Puree is a pureed form of pumpkin and can be used in recipes that call for canned pumpkin. It does not contain any other ingredients, it is just pureed pumpkin.
The recipe calls for pumpkin puree because it does not contain all the additional ingredients in the pie filling. Pumpkin pie filling can also be used in this recipe, however, most people think that it makes the dessert too sweet. I prefer to stick to puree.
I understand that you might not keep pumpkin pie spice on hand – or maybe you used so much last season that you may have run out. No problem – just blend the following ingredients together and you will have your own homemade pumpkin pie spice.
Yes, this cake does fine when it is frozen. Be sure to cover it or wrap it tightly in a freezer-safe wrap and thaw completely before serving. I like to add the topping once served. I also like to portion it out into individual servings before freezing so we can just grab one or two to thaw at a time.
Here are a few options for recipes to serve with this pumpkin spice cake…
