There are 5 savory recipes and 5 sweet recipes, so pretty evenly split! You guys have good taste. If you haven’t made anything from my blog yet, this is a good place to start!
10. Apple Pie Bars
TheseApple Pie Bars have over a pound of butter in them, and that is not an apology. The crumble is AMAZING and I can’t wait to try out this crust/crumble combo with different kinds of fruit. Peaches? Berries? Rhubarb?? yasss
9. How to Cook Tri Tip (Grilled or Oven Roasted)
We just made this again for Christmas dinner! LearnHow to Cook Tri Tip (Grilled or Oven Roasted) just like they do in California with this easy recipe. It’s so simple, you are going to love it.
8. The Only Texas Sheet Cake You’ll Ever Need
It’s true you guys. It really is The Only Texas Sheet Cake You’ll Ever Need. It is simple, rich, and uber chocolately. That frosting is to die for. The best part is that you put the frosting on when the cake is warm, so it’s a great last minute dessert that feeds a crowd!
7. Honey Balsamic Slow Cooker Ribs
This recipe for Honey Balsamic Slow Cooker Ribs is from my friend Natalie’s Paleo slow cooker cookbook! (<<Buy it here) Can you believe I had never tried making ribs in the slow cooker?? It’s a whole new world you guys. SO GOOD. Crisp them up in the broiler at the end, yum. (Natalie came out with a Paleo Pressure Cooker book this year too, and I’m reviewing another recipe for it soon! Yay healthy January!)
6. Mexican Hot Chocolate Cookies (Chocolate Snickerdoodles)
TheseMexican Hot Chocolate Cookies (Chocolate Snickerdoodles)are fudgy and oh-so-chocolatey. They have cinnamon in them, and if you want to add a little cayenne for a bit of a kick, go for it! I like to think of them as Chocolate Snickerdoodles.
5. The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies I’ve Ever Made
My cousin Alice gave me her favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and I fell in LOVE.The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies I’ve Ever Made is a little untraditional, using maple extract in addition to vanilla, and it has a sprinkle of raw sugar on top for a bit of crunch. They are so delicious! A few months later my other cousin Emily gave me HER favorite 30 Minutes Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe (my cousins have the best recipes, guys) and I think it is on par for my favorite now. Why are chocolate chip cookies so good?? I love them all!
4. Caramel Cake with Caramel Icing Recipe
ThisCaramel Cake with Caramel Icing Recipe is one of the richest cakes you will ever eat.The caramel frosting is really like candy. I wanted a really easy version of a classic Southern Caramel Cake, and this totally fits the bill! It’s way easy and so delicious.
3.Simply Amazing Grilled Chicken Recipe
I’m basically obsessed with thisSimply Amazing Grilled Chicken Recipe. It’s super easy, uses pantry staples, and makes the BEST MOST MOISTEST CHICKEN IN ALL THE LAND. Okay sorry for yelling but I have strong feelings of hatred for dry chicken. No more. Make this.
2.Cheesy Overnight Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole
I posted this recipe on the blog back in 2012 with some horrendous newbie-blogger photos. We make this classicCheesy Overnight Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole every Christmas with my husband’s family. It is hearty and delicious, and you can make it the night before you eat! I republished the recipe with new photos at the beginning of this month, and it shot to the second most popular recipe of the year!
1. Easy Fall-Apart Pot Roast with Carrots – Slow Cooker
I’m totally surprised that this Easy Fall Apart Pot Roast with Carrots was my top recipe of 2018, because I thought everyone already had this recipe! It’s the old trick of adding onion soup mix to a pot roast, which adds tons of flavor and is just so darn easy. Have you tried it? The other trick is to wait a full 8-10 hours for a SUPER tender roast. Check out the post for more tips and tricks. It is absolutely foolproof and I will never make a roast another way!
