Welcome to week 1 of our new series “12 Weeks of Holiday Baking” where I’ll be sharing our favorite family holiday recipes each week! First up is Brown Sugar Cake! This is sure to become a favorite in your house too!!

Comment BAKING for the Brown Sugar Cake recipe, links to our Christmas Candy Cookbook that includes everything from last year’s candy series and the cute cakelet pan I used in the reel! Ive included the full recipe below as well!

Happy Baking!!🍁

Brown Sugar Cake:

Ingredients
1 Box Yellow Cake Mix
1 3.4oz Box Vanilla Instant Pudding Mix
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1 Cup Water
1/2 Cup Vegetable Oil
3 Eggs
Baker’s Joy Or Pam with Flour Spray for Bundt Pan
Powdered Sugar to sprinkle on top of cake (optional)

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and prepare a bundt pan by spraying with Baker’s Joy or Pam with flour for best results in removing cake from the bundt pan. (You can grease and flour the pan, but I have found that cooking spray with flour works the best!)
In a large mixing bowl add a yellow cake mix, 3.4oz box of vanilla instant pudding mix, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 3 eggs.
Beat mixture with a hand mixer on medium speed for 2 min.
Pour mixture into prepared bundt pan and bake on 350 for approximately 1 hour or until a tooth pick comes out clean in center of cake. NOTE: if using a cakelet pan or mini Bundt pan, fill 3/4th full with batter (do not overfill) and bake for 30-35 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
Cool cake completely in the bundt pan before attempting to remove from the pan.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy!

With soup season upon us, save this easy weeknight

With soup season upon us, save this easy weeknight chili recipe to add to your rotation! I’ve shared my full chili recipe below or comment SOUP and I’ll send it to your DM’s! 🌶️

This chili soup is basically a dump and go recipe…especially by adding @spiceworldinc Easy Onion! Easy Onion saves you from dicing and crying over an onion with the same great flavor! You can find Easy Onion in your grocery produce isle!

Easy Weeknight Chili🌶️

1 lb ground beef browned and drained
1/2 cup diced @spiceworldinc Easy Onion
1 large can tomato juice
1 can diced chili ready tomatoes
1 can chili beans
(1 can kidney beans optional)
1 package chili seasoning
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Elbow macaroni (cooked and drained)

In a skillet, brown 1lb of ground beef and drain grease. Add in 1/2 cup Easy Onion and sauté.

In a large soup pot, add tomato juice and diced tomatoes (use an immersion blender if you like tomatoes puréed). Add in beans, chili seasoning, brown sugar and ground beef-onion mixture. Stir and simmer on low for 30 min. While chili is simmering, cook macaroni noodles and drain. Add in noodles just before serving.

Serve chili with your favorite toppings! We love corn chips, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese and a PB&J!

How do you like your chili?🌶️

AD | A melty grilled cheese sandwich is so simple, comforting and nostalgic, but adding @spiceworldinc Chili Onion Crunch takes a simple grilled cheese and makes it feel like something you’d order at your favorite little café.

To make this elevated grilled cheese, I grilled sourdough in butter on a cast iron skillet over medium low heat. I spread about a teaspoon of Chili Onion Crunch to each side before adding 2 slices of white American and about 1/2 cup shredded pepper jack for a little extra kick. Add whatever melty cheese you would like! Top the cheese with a grilled piece of sourdough and cover on low heat for 30 seconds to a minute or until cheese is completely melted. Remove from the cast iron and serve warm!

This may be my new favorite lunch! Let me know if you give this a try! 🥪❤️

Welcome to episode 3 of the “It’s Still Summer Ser

Welcome to episode 3 of the “It’s Still Summer Series”! This week I’m sharing Bourbon Apple Pear Butter! My father in law brought over pears from his pear tree so I knew I needed to make some of this delicious Bourbon Apple Pear Butter! It’s so good on sourdough toast and biscuits! The full recipe is below!

Bourbon Apple Pear Butter
1 1/2lb pears
1 1/2lb apples
1 cup apple juice
1 cup bourbon
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 cinnamon sticks

*Core, peel and slice pears and apples (I normally leave skins on the apples and use vitamin to puree).

*Add fruit to a granite pan with a lid or crockpot. If using a granite pan preheat oven to 350.

*Add apple juice, apple cider vinegar, bourbon, brown sugar, cinnamon and cinnamon sticks to the apples and pears and mix well.

*If using a granite pan, bake on 350 for 2-3 hours. Stirring every 30 minutes. If using a crock pot, cook on low for 8 hours, stirring every two hours. Fruit should be very soft and easy to mash with a fork.

*Wash and prepare jars and lids.

*Remove the cinnamon sticks. Add mixture to a blender to puree or use an immersion blender and blend to a smooth consistency.

*immediately add apple pear butter to pint jars and add lids and rings. To store for up to a year, add jars to a water bath to preserve. Without water bath, sealed jars will last up to 3-4 weeks in the fridge!
