Old-Fashioned Apple Cake
This old-fashioned apple cake with walnuts and coconut is moist and delicious. It's baked in an angel food cake pan and infused with a warm, sweet glaze.
Oven-Baked Barbecue Rib Tips
Rib tips are the parts of the rib that are cut away to make St. Louis ribs. Some butchers call this the pork brisket. This cut has a lot of cartilage, but a low, slow cook softens the cartilage and makes it tasty. I like to cut them into small pieces. These meaty bits are a little easier to manage than ribs, and their meaty, chewy texture makes a great appetizer or main dish. Serve with additional barbecue sauce, if desired.
Peaches and Cream Cake
This peaches and cream cake is the ideal combination of peaches and cream, a tender and incredibly moist cake swirled on top with sweetened cream cheese. A topping of macerated peaches elegantly drives home the fresh summery flavor, while keeping the steps easy for any level of home chef.
