Double Dipped Eggnog Glazed Baked Donuts. It appears I've been on a little bit of an eggnog kick lately.

Double Dipped Eggnog Glazed Baked Donuts

Though I have a very good reason why, I honestly never drink it. I get so excited to see anything christmassy at the grocery store every year, that I don't care what it is, no matter if I like it or not I will buy it just for the nostalgia of the holidays.....i.e. Pumpkin spice creamer, canned pumpkin puree, gingerbread tea, eggnog and even fruit cake (okay I lied about the fruit cake, I will still not eat that) Even though I only like eggnog for the first 2 sips.

I don't want to see it go to waste, so why not incorporate eggnog in all my favorite recipes. Double Dipped Eggnog Glazed Donuts Yields: 18 Donuts Ingredients 1/2 cups + 2 tablespoons butter at room temp 1 1/4 cups sugar 2 eggs 3 cups flour 4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoons salt 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 cup milk Directions - Preheat oven to 350 degrees - In a electric mixer, combine the soften butter and sugar together, mix for 2-3 minutes Eggnog Glaze.

Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes. “Scalloped” is an attractive word, isn’t it?

Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes

When I hear it I think of several things: first, there’s scallops, as in the seafood—totally delicious. Then there’s the scalloped shape that can live on the edge of a pair of shorts or on the collar of a woman’s blouse—always pretty and dainty. And of course scalloped potatoes also comes to mind, which carries my imagination to a land of crispy potato skins drenched in a sea of cheese and cream. I can think of no better place to exist, actually. So when I came across TK member Shelbi Keith’s recipe for Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes, I knew we were going to become fast friends. The first players up are: a few Russet potatoes (I’m sure other varieties will work equally as well), Parmigiano-Reggiano and butter. Start by scrubbing your potatoes good and clean.

Then, using a sharp knife, make slices across the potato, being sure to stop before you reach its bottom. Cut up your butter. Then do the same with the Parmigiano-Reggiano.
