Iced and Spiced
Is there nothing new under the sun? I wish I knew where this originally came from. I know that a google search tells me that it's not all that original, but since I found a version of it in my trusty box of recipes from my Grandmother, I've updated it to my own coffee preferences and my Bialetti. Mine is a nine cup. - TiggyBee

Applesauce Plain and Simple
We usually have a roast chicken every 10 days or so from October through April. It would be unthinkable to serve the chicken without applesauce. Vermont has an abundant source of organic Macintosh apples, and so I am able to prepare applesauce without worrying about peeling the apples. The end result is a beautiful pink sauce, with only the addition of a bit of honey and cinnamon to enhance flavor. And, sometimes, not even cinnamon is necessary! PS> Great for latkes, any kind of vegetable pancake, and mixed with cottage cheese or sour cream!

Homemade Mascarpone
Every time I make this, I'm surprised at how much better it tastes than store bought domestic mascarpone. When sourcing your heavy cream for this recipe, do try to stay away from ultra pasteurized cream. I have found that it inhibits the thickening. Adapted from my Lemon Posset recipe.

Goat Milk Ricotta Cheese
Making your own ricotta cheese is ridiculously simple. In this recipe, switched it up by using fresh goat milk, which you can get in most grocery stores now.
