so if you have a recipe you would like for me to add to my recipe blog, please post it here so I can copy and paste it to the blog (also now I have figured out how to put the pdf printable on each recipe, so easy to print out the recipes)
I will give you credit for your recipe with your quilting board name on the recipes

SIX-FLAVOR POUND CAKE
2 sticks margarine or butter
½ cup shortening
3 cups sugar
5 eggs
3 cups flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon of the following extracts/flavorings: vanilla, almond, butter, lemon, rum, coconut
Preheat oven to 325 deg. Grease & flour Bundt pan. Cream together butter and shortening. Add sugar gradually, beating well. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Add flavorings and mix. Add baking powder to flour and then add flour mixture and milk alternately, beating well. Bake at 325 deg. for 1-1/2 hours.
After removing from oven, let cool in pan while preparing the following glaze:
Combine 1 cup sugar, ½ cup water, 1 teaspoon each of the flavorings used in the cake and a pinch of cream of tartar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook for 5 minutes.
Remove cake from pan and punch little holes over top and sides with a toothpick. While cake and glaze are still hot, spoon glaze over top and sides.
This is not a “pretty” cake but it is the most requested at our home. Can be served with strawberries, whipped cream, etc., but it’s very good plain.

Sweet Potato Ambrosia
3 or 4 Medium size Sweet Potatoes
1 can Crushed Pineapple (well drained)
1 can Mandarin Oranges (drained)
Splenda or Sugar
1 teaspoon Cinnamon
Pecans
Marchino Cherries
Cook the Sweet Potatoes then peel and mash them. Add either Splenda or Sugar to sweeten to your taste. Add Cinnamon. Stir well, then add the crushed Pineapple. Make sure the Pineapple is very well drained. I squeeze the pineapple to drain as much of the juice as I can. Stir again and then add the Mandarin Oranges. Stir only enough to break the oranges into small pieces. Spread the mixture into a 9x13 glass dish. Decorate with Pecan halves and Marchino Cherries. Enjoy the potatoes hot or cold! Either way they are delicious!
