I created this recipe using my favorite parts of many different recipes. This bread isn't very sweet, so it's not for those who enjoy a sweeter bread. The chocolate throughout makes this a beautiful bread to entertain with.

Fried Chicken Wings
These crispy fried chicken wings are lovely and juicy inside. This recipe works so well because the wings are chilled before frying, which gives them extra crispy skin. I coat them in Buffalo sauce and they taste absolutely wonderful!
Golden Butter Rice
This golden butter rice, flavored with ginger and turmeric, is a forgotten way of cooking butter rice. It isn't cooked rice with butter stirred in, it really is rice cooked in butter. This is my favorite version, with seasonings inspired by a classic Indian drink called golden milk.
Potato Cake
Potato cakes are great for breakfast. Mashed potato cakes with a cheese surprise in the middle.
