Raised Griddle Cakes
This is a very old-fashioned version of cornmeal pancakes which rise overnight. It came to our family via my great grandmother and dates back to the mid 1870s. The cornmeal gives these pancakes a tiny hint of fried mush, a splendid treat that exceeds my patience to make.
Blintz Souffle II
A great twist on blintzes, very kid-friendly and easy to make using pre-packaged blintzes.
Petra's Strawberry Shortcake
Petra's strawberry shortcake recipe makes a wonderfully tasty and tender shortcake. As a teenager growing up in Germany, I made Biskuitteig — a light sponge cake — nearly every week. I was never a fan of using Bisquick for shortcake and always preferred the soft, spongy texture of Biskuitteig. So, I adapted an old German recipe and created this delicious version. It's also great with other fruit toppings!
