This lemon poke cake is super moist. It is called a poke cake because you poke holes in it to absorb the glaze. If you want, you can serve this tangy cake with whipped topping or vanilla ice cream.

Candy Apple Butter
A slightly sweet and sassy apple butter kids are sure to love! Cinnamon oil and red food coloring may be used in place of the candies. If using the cinnamon oil and omitting brown sugar this becomes a healthier tasty treat your kids won't know is good for them! My kids love this on buttered bread, warm atop french toast, or on ice cream.
Classic Whiskey Sour
A classic lemon whiskey sour should be made from scratch, or it ain't a whiskey sour. For a cleaner, classier-looking drink, strain the lemon juice to remove seeds and pulp. This cocktail can be served in martini glasses or tumblers full of ice.
