Daddy's Lemon Icebox Pie {Granny's Recipe}

Lemon Icebox Pie , classic Southern dessert traditionally set in the refrigerator before serving and that is how it gets the name "icebox".  Perfect dessert to say goodbye to long and sweltering days of summer. The one thing I remember most about my Mother making this Lemon Icebox Pie is that it was one of my Father's all time favorite desserts.

Celebrate the red, white and blue with this classic cheesecake pie. Perfect for a picnic or 4th of July party, the smooth and creamy cheesecake pie filling in graham crust will be a crowd pleaser for sure! All my growing up years, I remember my Mother making this Cherry Cheesecake Pie in the summer around the July 4th depending on what day it fell on closest to the weekend. She always would have to make two of them so there would be enough to go around.

Crusty Breaded Pork Chops with Caramelized Purple Onions

Crusty Breaded Pork Chops have a wonderful home-cooked flavor like the ones my Mom used to make. The breading makes them crispy outside and tender and juicy inside. My husband has been so hungry for Crusty Breaded Pork Chops  that I took a recipe that I generally make liver and onions by and used it this time for the pork chops.

. I am so happy to be guest posting for Melissa from Served Up with Love today.  I wish we lived next door to each other so we can share our recipes with a morning cup of coffee like we did at the Southern Food Bloggers Retreat.

Buffalo Chicken Bites

Buffalo Chicken Bites , mixture of chicken, cream cheese, spicy hot sauce, ranch dressing mix, baked between crescent rolls sheets.  They are a cross between a slider and hot sandwich. The best place to enjoy the most scrumptious appetizers, dips, sliders and sweet treats is at a Supper Bowl Party!

Banana Nut Bread {Granny's Recipe}

Banana Nut Bread, a classic straight from my Mother's kitchen, toasted pecans folded in a rich banana quick bread that is moist and perfectly sweet.   Now that my children are grown and married, I am the only one that eats bananas in the house.  I often buy too many bananas, and I can't eat all of them before they start turning brown.

Southern Chocolate Fudge Pie {aka Chocolate Chess Pie}

Southern Chocolate Fudge Pie  is a southern classic for sure.  The pie is the richest, most chocolaty, decadent pie you will ever eat.  Every bite is pure joy! Chocolate Fudge Pie is a classic old fashioned Southern dessert that has been around for years. Some people call this pie a chocolate chess pie.  

Peking Pork Chops

Peking Pork Chops  tenderized pork medallions, coated in a Chinese marinade and then deep fried.  But that is not the end, just before serving them dip them in a thick tangy and sweet hoisin sauce mixture. One of the first restaurants my husband likes to go to after the holidays is our local Chinese restaurant.   Peking Pork Chops are the favorite, and now I make them at home.

Buckeye Fudge

Buckeye Fudge  is a creamy peanut butter fudge layer covered with a thick layer of chocolate ganache.  This is the best way I can describe it.  Two amazing fudge flavors stacked on top of each other.    Like Christin says, peanut butter and chocolate, "What's not to love! I have heard of Buckeye Candy before, but I have never made it for some reason.  I  can't imagine why.  I first became aware of the Buckeye Fudge version from Christin over at Spicy Southern Kitchen . As soon as I saw this fudge on her website,  I wanted to make it, and I knew it would be perfect in our  Christmas treat boxes. It is absolutely the best fudge. It is close to becoming my favorite fudge, with my Mother's Millionaire Fudge being my favorite.
