Roasting brings out the sweetness and boosts the flavor of fall vegetables in this hearty side dish that costs just 43 cents per serving.
"Milk chocolate gives this cake a lighter flavor and lets the vanilla side shine as well," says holiday baking expert David Bonom.
"I wanted something with a true fall feeling. My favorite autumn sweets are gingerbread and molasses cake, so I combined them in this cake," shares holiday baking expert David Bonom.

The Scott Peacock recipe for the brined pork roast sounded fabulous. But someone threw my issue of the magazine away during the holiday rush. Is it possible to get a copy of this recipe? The magazine is no longer at my news stand.

12/3/2011 10:18:17 AM Report AbuseI am new to baking/cooking and tried my hand at the Toasted Coconut Cake with Walnuts and Cranberries and it was delicious! I can't wait to try more recipes! Thanks!

11/23/2011 08:25:10 PM Report AbuseThe Triple Ginger Squares are delicious and very ginger-y. I subbed 3T finely chopped crystallized ginger instead of the fresh grated ginger. Unfortunately, the entire center of this sunk considerably. Of course, the glaze wrinkled as it followed the contours of the cake surface. While still soft, I sprinkled the entire top with ground, toasted hazelnuts which helped its appearance somewhat.

11/21/2011 08:58:29 AM Report AbuseWhere is my recipe box? I had numerous recipes in there before you changed the look of your site, now there is absolutely NOTHING.
11/15/2011 03:52:06 PM Report AbuseI wish you included the grams of saturated fat, not just total fat, in the nutritional information that accompanies the recipes. It is hard to know how healthful a recipe really is without this information, so I rarely end up selecting one to make.
