Best Victoria Sponge Cake
Victoria sponge cake, a much loved English layer cake, is perfect for any occasion! This foolproof recipe sandwiches two tender cakes with a layer of strawberry jam and buttercream, but you can use sweetened whipped cream. Dust the top of the cake with confectioners' sugar for a beautiful presentation.
Slow Cooker Beer Pulled Pork
My recipe for pulled pork is simple: 1 can of beer, a 5- to 6-pound pork butt, seasonings, and a bottle of barbecue sauce. My beer choice is Shiner Bock, and my barbecue sauce choice is Sweet Baby Ray's. Just put it in a slow cooker before you go to bed, and when you wake up the magic has happened. See for yourself! Serve on onion buns or hamburger buns.
Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Butter
Apple butter with a creamy caramel saltiness. I like to use mixed apples for this dish. The longer the apple butter cooks, the darker it gets, and the smaller the yield.
