Sweet Potato Casserole Recipe by Georgie Goode from The Pioneer Woman.

Prep time: 2 hours

Cooking time: 1 hour

Servings: 8-10 servings

Ingredients

Filling

  • 3 1/2 lb. sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 c. butter, melted, plus more to grease the casserole dish
  • 1/2 c. heavy cream
  • 1/3 c. light brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 3/4 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)

Topping

  • 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 c. light brown sugar

  • 1/4 c. butter, melted 
  • 2 c. mini marshmallows, divided

Directions

  1. For the filling: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  2. Place the sweet potatoes on the foil and pierce the tops 2 to 3 times with a knife. Loosely cover with foil. Roast until very soft, about 50 to 60 minutes. Uncover and let rest until cool enough to handle. Peel the sweet potatoes, discarding the skin. 
  3. In a large bowl, combine the roasted sweet potato, butter, cream, light brown sugar, eggs, salt, cinnamon, smoked paprika, and cayenne. Mash until smooth (or leave it a little chunky if you like!). 
  4. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F. Butter a 13-by-9-inch casserole dish. Place the sweet potato filling in the casserole dish and smooth the top.
  5. For the topping: In a small bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the pecans and butter and mix until the mixture is clumpy. Sprinkle 1 cup of marshmallows all over the potato filling. Then top with all of the streusel. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with the remaining 1 cup of marshmallows. Return to the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly around the edges, hot in the middle, and the marshmallows on top are golden brown. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces candied orange peel, diced
  • 8 ounces candied citron, diced
  • 8 ounces candied pineapple, diced
  • 8 ounces of fruitcake mixed fruit, diced
  • 4 ounces whole red candied cherries

  • 1 cup dried currants
  • 1 cup raisins, golden or dark
  • 1 cup chopped dates
  • 1/2 cup orange juice

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 cup molasse

Directions

  1. Combine the dried fruit, orange juice, and brandy in a large bowl. Stir gently, cover, and let it soak for a few hours.
  2. Generously butter the bottom and sides of two 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pans. Line them with parchment paper and butter the paper thoroughly.
  3. Sift the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice twice. Add the baking powder and salt, then sift again.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and cream until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat the egg yolks lightly and add them to the butter mixture. Mix well.
  6. Gradually add the flour and spice mix to the butter mixture, stirring well after each addition. Once fully combined, stir in the molasses.
  7. Stir the soaked fruit and any leftover soaking liquid into the batter.
  8. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites to stiff peaks using a clean beater. Gently fold them into the batter.
  9. Spoon the batter into the prepared pans. Cover them loosely with a clean cloth and let sit overnight in a cool place to mellow.
  10. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Place the uncovered pans on the middle rack and bake for 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
  11. After 1 1/2 hours, cover the pans with brown paper (or place in a paper bag) to prevent over-browning, then continue baking.
  12. Insert a toothpick or cake tester into the center of the cakes. If it comes out clean, the cakes are done. Leave the cakes in their pans to cool on a wire rack.
  13. Once completely cooled, remove the cakes from the pans, keeping the paper lining on. Wrap each cake in parchment paper and foil, then store in a tin.
  14. Open the foil every 3–4 days and drizzle a small amount of brandy or bourbon over the cakes. This keeps them moist and enhances their flavor.

Pull-Apart Garlic Bread Recipe by Hannah Klinger from The Pioneer Woman.

Prep time: 2 hours 15 minutes

Cooking time: 40 minutes

Servings: 8-12 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/4 c. warm water (about 110º)
  • 1 Tbsp. active dry yeast
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
  • 1 c. whole milk, warm (about 110º)
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 3/4 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 c. unsalted butter, melted
  • 5 c. bread flour
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • For the Garlic Butter:
  • 1/2 c. unsalted butter

  • 1 Tbsp. finely chopped rosemary
  • 1/4 c. shredded parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. For the dough, whisk together the water, yeast and 1/2 tablespoon of the sugar in a small bowl. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. 
  2. Beat the milk, eggs, salt, butter, yeast mixture, and remaining 1 tablespoon of the sugar on medium-low in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment until well combined, about 10 seconds. With the mixer on medium-low, gradually add the flour. Once the flour is incorporated, increase the speed to medium and beat the dough until smooth and elastic, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let stand until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  3. For the garlic butter, combine the butter, garlic, and salt in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley and rosemary. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the garlic butter for brushing on the baked loaves.
  4. Lightly grease 2 (9-by-5-inch) loaf pans. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 40 (about 1 ounce) pieces; shape into balls. Roll 20 dough balls in the garlic butter and arrange in the bottom of the prepared loaf pans. Sprinkle with half of the parmesan. Repeat with the remaining dough balls, garlic butter, and parmesan. Drizzle any remaining garlic butter evenly over the loaves.
  5. Cover the pans loosely with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 350° during the last 20 minutes of rise time.
  6. Uncover the loaves and discard the plastic wrap. Bake until the tops are golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the center registers 200°, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush the tops with the remaining 1 tablespoon of garlic butter, reheating the butter gently over low heat if needed to melt. Cool the loaves in the pans on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Carefully remove the loaves from the pans. Serve warm.

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, cook the bacon over moderate heat until crisp. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat; if you don’t have 2 tablespoons, add enough cooking oil to make up the amount. Reduce the heat to moderately low.
  2. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the potatoes, water, and salt and bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. Remove half the soup from the pan and puree in a food processor. Alternatively, mash some of the potatoes with a potato masher.
  6. Return the puree to the pan. Over low heat, add the cheese and stir until melted.
  7. Remove the pan from the heat. Taste the soup and add more salt if needed.
  8. Top the soup with the bacon and chives to serve.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Rub cut sides of garlic all over inside of a 2 1/2- to 3-quart oval broiler-safe baking dish; discard garlic. Rub inside of dish with 1 tablespoon butter; set aside.
  2. Arrange potato and onion slices, standing slightly vertically on edges, in slightly overlapping concentric circles in the baking dish. Tuck smaller potato and onion slices into any gaps in dish to fill. Cover with a damp paper towel until ready to use.
  3. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium until melted and foaming. Add flour; cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in cream until smooth. Whisk in salt, mustard, and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer over medium, whisking constantly. Remove from heat. Whisk in 3/4 cup of the Cheddar and 1/2 cup of the Gruyère, 1 handful at a time, until melted and smooth. Pour evenly over potato mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 3/4 cup Cheddar and 1/2 cup Gruyère.
  4. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil. Bake in preheated oven until cream is bubbling, cheese has melted, and potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes. Carefully remove foil from baking dish, while keeping dish in oven. Increase oven temperature to broil. Broil gratin until cheese is bubbly and browned in spots, checking occasionally to prevent over-browning, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from oven. Let stand 20 minutes. Sprinkle with chives and serve.
