Holiday Cooking, Blogger Style- My Recipes
I have two family favorite recipes to share for my 3rd annual Holiday Cooking, Blogger Style recipe exchange! I hope you enjoy them!
Note: I'm also linking this post up in Linda's Fall Into Flavor recipe exchange!
The first one is a pie recipe. I love, love, love pie! I know pumpkin pie is a more traditional holiday treat, but I'm a sucker for apple pie. This recipe has been passed down in my family for many years and it's delicious!
Sour Cream Apple Pie
Ingredients
Sift:
2 tablespoons flour
3/4 cups sugar
Add:
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
Mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients and beat until smooth. Line a 9" pie plate with pie crust (Pillsbury makes a good pre-made pie crust). Fill with freshly sliced apples (8 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored, and sliced). Pour wet batter over the apples. Bake at 400 degrees F for 30 minute.
Remove from oven and add this topping.
Topping ingredients mixed together:
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter
1/3 cup flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Return to oven and bake for another 10 minutes. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream on top! Yum!
My next recipe is actually a great gift idea. You mix all the dry ingredients in decorative containers, attach a gift card with instructions on how to serve and give it as a holiday gift. I've done this in the past and have gotten lots of excitement over it!
Fireside Coffee
Ingredients
2 cups non-dairy coffee creamer
1 1/2 cups hot cocoa mix
1 1/2 cups instant coffee granules
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
Combine all ingredients, mixing well. Store mixture in an airtight container. Yield: 6 1/2 cups mix.
Note for gift card that you'd attach to the container:
To make 1 cup, spoon 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon of coffee mix in a cup. Add 1 cup boiling water; stir until well blended. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and your favorite holiday cookies!

Omigosh, that pie and that coffee look so yummy! I prefer apple pie to pumpkin pie so you chose well. lol That Fireside Coffee also sounds delicious, I must give it a try. xoxo
The fireside coffee sounds wonderful. I'll definitely try that this season.
Delicious sounding recipes. I love apple pie the best.
Both of these recipes sound amazing! I will have to try both of them this year. My husband makes a similar recipe: Sour Cream Peach Pie. The ingredients are a little different, but it is one of my favorites! Plus, my husband makes it! You can't beat that! :)
What a perfect combination. I like you, love pie...much better than cake. Love and Hugs!
OW, these recipes both sound SOOOOO good! I think I'm going to make the sour cream apple pie this weekend. It sounds delicious! And I am going to have to try your coffee mix. I'm' also planning on making russian tea mix this winter too!

The Sour Cream Apple Pie recipe looks lucious. Will definitely give your recipe a try.
I did! Scroll down a bit... if I could figure out how to put it at the top I would... do you know the secret??
I've been so busy with arranging my trip to America that I forgot about all the fun you are having here. If I ever get a moment to sit down and think about something other than flights, I will post a yummy recipe at my craft site...just for you.
Have A Happy Day!
