Grandma's Two Egg Cake

This is a basic two-egg cake recipe just like Grandma used to make.

Growing up Grandma made this cake with simple always stocked in the pantry ingredients.

Although the cake is more dense than any cake mix would be, the flavor of homemade goodness was the best you could ask for.

We usually had a slice of this cake plain without anything on it and it reminded me a thick fluffy cookie inside.

Grandma was my Dad's mother and she would make two 8 inch cake one plain and the other one was his favorite garnished and slathered with red raspberry jam sprinkled with coconut.

Milk, eggs, flour, sugar, and a citrus taste like lemon or orange peel went into it.

The first onset of cold, snow, and winter, this was a popular dessert food on our tables after dinner.

Served plain, with fresh fruit, whipped cream, pudding, dusted with powdered sugar or a drizzle of icing.

Black Pepper Cookies ( White Wine Cookies)

Black Pepper cookies are a recipe that my mom made that her mother taught her and a recipe from her Region in Bari Italy.

The cookie has wine, oil, flour, anise seeds and black pepper with a little salt.

Almond Cake

This is an all-made-from-scratch Almond Cake my Italian grandmother made for us back in the 1960s.

The cake recipe came from her Italian mother she learned to make this in Rome, Italy.

Although the cake is revised with a little drizzle of icing just for decoration, nothing was on her original cake, and was baked on a  very plain simple pie plate pan.

Through the years we adapted her recipe just a bit for presentation, you can make the simplicity of this by just leaving it topped with sugar and sliced almonds.

This can is rich in almond flavor and the perfect snack cake any time of the day!
