Favorite Recipes Made with Nuts

I think there are two things about a German Chocolate Cake that people find appealing. One is that it's a lighter version of a chocolate cake. It's not densely chocolate which, believe it or not, some people don't enjoy. The second reason is because it's iced with a Coconut Pecan Frosting. I know that's why my daughter loves it. A rich buttery flavor along with a great texture are what make the Coconut Pecan Frosting so enjoyable.

I grew-up eating this cake. It's so sinful, and yet, filled with good things for you. I've had house guests request Tropical Carrot Cake for breakfast. I think this carrot cake recipe is by far the best you'll ever have.

I've never really cared for pecan pie because it's typically too sweet. This recipe isn't like that at all. This Pecan Pie is just wonderful.

For a miniature version of Pecan Pie, try this recipe for Pecan Tassies.

Enjoy this Blondie recipe chocked-full of toasted walnuts. Shh, I think that I might even like Blondies better than most brownies.

These Sugared Nuts are so good that you'll want to eat them all of the time.

For that sweet-salty combination make some Salted Nuts to go with them.

These Oatmeal Walnut Cookies have a wonderfully chewy texture and a want-at-least-one-more taste.

There is nothing like homemade granola. It can be used dry as a snack, in a bowl with milk for cereal or baked to make bars.
