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.

Strawberry Cake

           *NOTE* This is not a "same day" cake. The strawberries need time to set.


This is one cake that's easy to do and my family devours it. I bet yours will too.



Ingredients
1 box of strawberry cake mix. Any brand.
1 small box of strawberry Jello.
1 Pint of fresh strawberries sliced
1 box of powdered sugar
1 cup of cooking oil.
1 cup of milk
4 whole eggs
1 stick of butter.

Wash and slice your strawberries. Layer them in a bowl with some powdered sugar. (Roughly a cup to a cup and a half.) You want to make sure your strawberries are well coated. Put a tight lid on the bowl and stick these in the fridge overnight. Shake your bowl a few times to get the strawberries well-coated. I usually give mine a good shake each time I open my fridge for something.


The next day we are ready to bake this cake!

Mix together the cake mix and jello powder.
Add the eggs, cooking oil, milk, and 1 cup of your strawberries and juice mixing well.
Pour this into a 9 x13 pan and bake at 325

Take your bowl of soaked strawberries and add one stick of melted butter and the rest of the box of powdered sugar. Stir well.

Once your cake is done. Poke holes into the top of the cake and pour on your strawberry mixture.
Your cake is ready to enjoy!
