This cake is a nod to a cake recipe found on the Kirbie's cravings blog. I've reduced the recipe quantity, and made a couple of swaps. I frosted my cake with a Russian buttercream for a not too sweet frosting.

Air Fryer Oven Pork Jerky
This pork jerky recipe is made in an air fryer. Pork jerky stores well, so it's a perfect snack for camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, or any outdoor activity. I typically leave the jerky making to my husband, but I got an air fryer and decided to try it myself. While it does take time, the dehydrator method he uses takes much longer. This method was easy and the jerky was full of flavor — overall, I was impressed! Store jerky in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 30 days.
Cornell Chicken
This famous Cornell chicken recipe made with an apple cider marinade was created by Dr. Robert C. Baker at New York's Cornell University. According to history, Dr. Baker was simply trying to invent an easy and delicious way to grill smaller, younger chickens to help the local chicken farms sell more birds. The doc's tasty recipe ended up being such a success that sales in the area soared, and the recipe became a statewide favorite.
