Hey yall! I’m so glad you dropped by. Most of these are southern recipes that have been handed down for generations.There are a few people on Facebook that has begged me to do this for some time now. And I have been meaning to. But when my grandbabies asked me to write down all of my recipes. I knew I had to. Now please don’t expect anything fancy here. I’m just a southern cook that was taught how by my mother and grandmother. Some of these recipes you have probably heard of and others may be new to you. Either way, I hope you find something you just love. If you do find something you like. Leave me a comment or drop me a line. I have always loved to hear from my readers. *Note* I am one of those cooks that never measures anything. I have done it so many times that I can tell by looking at how much I use. If the recipe calls for a cup of sugar. I’m not going to measure it. I’m going to dump in the amount that looks like a cup to me. So, with that being said. I am going to try my best to convert my recipes into exact measurements for you. As long as you follow along somewhat closely, don’t worry, you won't mess it up. Relax! Cooking is supposed to be fun. So come on, stop reading, and let's go have some fun! I love yall and Jesus does too.

Coca Cola Cake


 This cake recipe has been floating around the internet for years.  I finally took a look at it. I had to switch it up some but, I really liked it. My family loved it. I am going to give you my version here. But for the original one just google Coca-Cola cake. The original cake calls for a spread on frosting but, I prefer a pour on chocolate. I love the way it seeps into the cake and puddles up around the edges.


1 cup of room temperature coca cola

1/2 cup of oil

1 stick of butter

1/2 cup of cocoa powder

2 cups of sugar

2 cups of self-rising flour

1/2 teaspoon of salt

2 eggs

1 teaspoon of baking soda

1 teaspoon of vanilla

1 bag of milk chocolate chips

Frosting

1 stick of butter

1/2 cup of cocoa powder

3 cups of powdered sugar

1/2 cup of coca-cola


In a saucepan mix coca-cola, oil, butter, and cocoa powder and bring to a boil. In another bowl mix the flour, sugar, and salt. Pour the boiling mixture over the flour mixture and beat well. Add the eggs, buttermilk, baking soda, and vanilla and beat well. Pour mixture into a greased and floured 9 x 13 baking pan. Bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes.

While the cake is baking. Add all of the frosting ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Then set aside.

When the cake is done, sprinkle chips onto the hot cake. and pour chocolate over the top.
