In the Kitchen
Here is a list of each month:
January was Hot cocoa mix – basically a just-add-water recipe because we figured you probably baked enough during the Christmas holiday.
February – brownie mix with white chocolate chips (for your sweetie on Valentines)
March – Irish soda bread with raisins (to help celebrate St. Patrick’s Day)
April – lemon pound cake (should go well with Easter fixins)
May – blueberry muffins (sent dried blueberries with this mix but can’t wait for the real ones to be ripening soon…)
June – cookies with M&Ms (celebrate summer!)
July – buttermilk pancakes with chocolate chips (this is a mix I use for pancakes all the time…nice and fluffy)
August – banana walnut snack cake (bananas tend to get old quickly when the temps are high so put those old bananas to use in this cake – add a cream cheese frosting to take it up a notch)
September – coconut cream pie (this mix is for a pudding that you used to make the pie…who doesn’t like pie?)
October – calico bean soup (temps are starting to cool down…cozy up with a bowl of soup)
November – pumpkin bread with cranberries (pumpkin everything this time of year!)
December – cornbread and chili mixes (more soup and cornbread…can’t beat it…an easy meal when you have been busy preparing for the holidays)
I used the Make-A-Mix book for most of the mixes. I have provided links (above) to the recipes that I used that did not come from this book. I have this original book that was published in 1987 but I think it was updated in 2006…
