German Chocolate Cake and Frosting

 I got a beautiful three layer cake from a friend after a death in our family years ago.    It was so so good, I asked her for her recipe.  She said it was no secret, it was in the inside if the German chocolate bar box.   

I haven’t made it in years, but while in the grocery store recently the German chocolate bars caught my eye and I bought one.  Today I opened the box for the recipe, and it’s not there!!

Thankfully I had that part of a box from years ago saved in my recipe box.  So, I’m putting it here for safe keeping!  I may type it out and add pictures later….

Squash Cornbread

 Another recipe Kay Smith gave me today. (6-17-25)

Ingredients:

1 Jiffy cornbread mix 

3 eggs 

1/4 cup milk

1/4 cup oil

2 cups grated squash 

2 cups grated cheddar cheese

1 chopped onion 

I melted 1/2 stick butter in my large iron skillet and baked at 350 degrees for 45 minutes 

Broccoli Cornbred

 Elaine Primeaux gave me this recipe in 1998 

Ingredients:

1 box Jiffy cornbread mix 

1/2 cup cottage cheese 

2 eggs 

1 cup chopped fresh broccoli florets

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese 

1/2 medium onion chopped 

Melt 3/4 stick butter in baking dish 

Pour in batter and bake 375 degrees for 25-35

If you want a thicker end result, use a smaller pan and adjust the cooking time.   For this batch, I used a 9x13 cake pan.  I have used a 8x8, it just takes a longer bake time.
