Instant Pot® Cuban-Style Black Beans
Black beans are a staple in Cuban cooking, typically served with either yellow or white rice. Give them a good squeeze of fresh lime juice, garnish with some chopped cilantro (we also add some chopped onion and a drizzle of olive oil), and you're in for a treat. These beans freeze well and reheat beautifully in the microwave.
World's Best Maine Whoopie Pies - Ayuh
Whoopie pies are one of those comfort foods that make you want more than one. They just don't get any better. Though whoopie pies can be delicious any old way... the preferred way to have them is about 5 to 10 minutes out of the freezer. Tall glass of milk and one of these Maine whoopie pies... you will not have a care in the world! The frosting is phenomenal, but make sure you remember that when making it, it will look like a real mess until you've beaten it on high for at least 5 minutes. Sometime after that it will become like nothing you've seen or eaten. This makes a big batch and is easily halved.
