Chocolate Ice Cream Cake aka Midcentury Modern food fun

The name of this recipe is so misleading- I expected for it to be an “ice cream cake”, not a chocolate cake with ice cream. This recipe can be tailored to your needs so easily. Want regular chocolate cake? Buy that mix. Need to go gluten-free? There is a mix for that. You can even make your own from scratch (see a list of cake recipes at the bottom of this post)

40-Minute Cheesecake using Cottage Cheese (No Instant Pot required!)

I have to admit something- despite owning two Instant Pots I have never made Instant Pot Cheesecake. Now this vintage recipe does not use a pressure cooker but it also does not use Cream Cheese- instead, it uses cottage cheese and evaporated milk. I’m actually tempted to make this but with Lent starting tomorrow and not going anywhere for the foreseeable future (thanks Covid) I’m not going to try it. Anyone out there up for the challenge?

Fresh Homemade Noodles! Make your fresh homemade noodles here!

Making pasta is one of those things that I never thought that I would fall in love with. Now, unlike this recipe I do go for the easy way- yes I have a pasta maker attachment for our kitchen-aid. You can also buy or cut roll it out and cut as the instructions say. Honestly though- the attachment for the Kitchen-Aid is one of the best buys I’ve made (it makes making pierogi a breeze).
