Foodie Friday -- April 11th

Welcome to Foodie Friday, where great cooks gather each week to share recipes.

I've been playing with the Novel Bakers. You can see what we've been up to at Pinterest.

Today was a double feature, starting with a trip down a rabbit hole.

For Foodie Friday, I'm sharing a super easy dessert idea.

All you need is a store-bought cake, Cool Whip buttercream icing, and miniature candy eggs.

Place a child's juice glass in the center "hole" of the cake, then add water and flowers.

That's it.

Last week, the most popular recipe at Foodie Friday was Miz Helen's Seafood Casserole.

Doesn't it look delicious?

Readers also loved Mountain Breaths' MacKenzie-Child's Butterfly Garden and Easy Macaroons.

Another popular recipe was Winnie's Chocolate Mousse Cake on a Hazelnut Crust. I can just imagine my fork sinking through those luscious layers. And it's gluten free!

Note: You are cordially invited to join the Novel Bakers for Beatrix Potter Easter Week. It kicked off Monday, April 7th at Rattlebridge, Home Is Where the Boat Is and ...a quiet life. Jain and Mary's recipes and ideas will inspire you to create a fabulous Easter dinner or get-together. If you are familiar with their gorgeous blogs, you know what I'm talking about. If you haven't met the girls, hop on over for a visit.

You'll find a comprehensive collection of photos and links on the Beatrix Potter Week board at Pinterest.

 

The Novel Bakers will continue to post Easter recipes all weekend.
