Sounds like Nanaimo bars. I just want to tell you how much I enjoy coming to this site. I wanted to do something like this with my grandmother’s recipes (which seem to be from the same era) but frankly, there is no need as you have done such an incomparable job. I treasure her old cookbooks, but this is also a treat for the vintage recipe lover.

The sausage scrapple recipe is just what I have been looking for. I will check out your charming vintage recipe collection. Thanks!

Hi, Cheryl: I have older relatives from the midwest and they make their “r” and “t” just like the lady did above, in addition to your English grandmother. :)

I have been looking for a recipe my sister remembers from her childhood (she is ten years older than I – she was born in 1948, so we’re talking 50’s). It was some type of cake or cobbler containing pineapple filling and had cornmeal in the cake or dough part. She talks about it all the time and I would love to be able to surprise her with a recipe! Thanks, Lori

I LOVE vintage and all the hand~me~down recipes I can find. These old recipes are absolute gems and all but lost. Thanks for your site.
