Grandmother Stougaard's Caramel Pecan Sweet Rolls
Grandmother Stougaard's caramel pecan sweet rolls recipe is an old family favorite. It's not the easiest to make, but it's well worth the trouble. Gooey and sweet, they're best eaten fresh from the oven. I usually double the recipe because if you go to the trouble to make yeast rolls, make lots. You can also warm the milk in the microwave.
Instant Pot Creme Brulee
A simple classic dessert that is quick to prepare in the Instant Pot.
Cheesy Quiche Crust
I love this cheesy quiche crust recipe. The cheese adds to the usually bland flavor of the crust to make it rich and tasty.
