Well it looks like I've saved the best for last (my Pumpkin Pie with Gingersnap Crust being a close second). My last recipe for 2019 are Gingerbread Cupcakes. They're dark and super moist with a flavor that will make your eyes roll to the back of your head and your mouth say "oh yeah"! And with a spice blend of ground ginger, white pepper, cayenne pepper and FRESH ginger...yes fresh ginger it should come as no surprise.

If you're looking for a white cake that is tall and light, then this recipe is for you! I had a mother and daughter ask me for advice on baking a white cake. The daughter tried many white cake recipes but they just kept coming out similar to angel food cake, spongy and full of holes.

The name says it all! This is a quick and Easy Seafood Stew you can make on a weeknight. And it's the perfect soup for dipping crusty bread into.
The original recipe for this stew called for calamari, but I was having a hard time finding it. I did find calamari steak but it didn't give the stew any texture, I also tried bay scallops which actually worked pretty well. But, I felt like it was still missing some substance.
So when I stumbled upon a seafood mix, which was a blend of mussels, shrimp, octopus and squid I had to try it! It was the perfect texture and blend of seafood in every bite.
