This hand pie came about because I have been on a run of making empanadas. Call them what you will; hand pie, patty, turnover, and empanada. They are all the same thing, food tucked into a folded circle of dough and baked, fried, etc. and I love everyway they come. We fill these pockets of …

Warning! You can make cheesecake, cooking to clean up in 1 hour, with 5 minutes of actual work. I should also tell you that clean up really only involves cleaning up one food processor. This recipe is easy enough that you, like me, will find yourself making a few rounds of cheesecake because the …

Do you still have room for just a little more holiday flavor? Yesterday was the gingerbread throw down.

In need of comfort food? I am. Accident and injury prone me has been laid up yet again this year. I swear I'm not a complete klutz! Not being able to do things for myself is a huge downer because I am pretty sure that I can do anything and everything when healthy. Lucky for …

Rosemary Garlic Chablis Wine Jelly is a personal favorite and very first Potlicker flavor. The jelly itself is inspired by an apple rosemary jelly from a family friend. In fact, she is the hostess with the mostess. I imagine that she would serve this Apple Pecan Rosemary Baklava at her very posh parties. This is …
These orange basil cookies will be a winner every time. They are the high ranking food in my house right now. While the cookies are a lovely addition to a tea tray or brunch spread, if left too convenient to a student bogged down with studies, then they will be gobbled down as a meal …
