These are so good and we make them at least once or twice a year… we even included them in the wedding menu last year! The image used is not mine but I will add a photo when I make them the next time!

Everyone’s Favorite Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls
This may not be one of the easiest recipes on my blog but they sure are delicious! My oldest son requests these every time he comes home so we really try to make them happen. They are a favorite ‘go-to’ for special days and we recently had them for breakfast before the latest baby shower. We also had them for breakfast before the wedding last year.
Forgive the cover photo as I used leftover icing to ice these with… I’ll try to get a better photo the next time I make them 🙂

Everyone’s Favorite Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls
This is a multi-step process and need a little preparation but they are so worth all the extra effort! These can make any day a special day and we often have them on the mornings of special holidays or events.
Ingredients:
Dough:
- 5 c. Flour (If using self-rising flour you can omit the next 3 ingredients)
- 2 c. shortening or butter
- 2/3 c. sourdough discard
- 1 1/2 – 2 c. Buttermilk (you can use regular milk and add 1 T. Vinegar)
- 1 ½ t. salt
- 2 T. honey (optional)
You can wait and add these right before baking but I usually add them while I make everything else… adding it later will help them to be extra fluffy!

Dairy Free Cream Cheese Icing
One of my kiddos who loves Red Velvet Cake recently requested one for her birthday. We had to make it dairy-free… it was a little work but we succeeded. I used a boxed cake which said it was dairy-free.
I’ll try to update this with a printable recipe card later but you can print out the cream cheese icing recipe and write in the changes.
Dairy Free Cream Cheese Icing
Ingredients:
- 8 oz cream cheese (dairy free)
- 1 stick margarine (dairy free)
- 1 lb confectioner’s sugar
- 1 t. vanilla
- 1 t. Cream cheese flavoring (optional)
Directions:
Cream all of the icing ingredients together and spread on cooled cake.
Sprinkle the top with any crumbs that may have fallen off the cake.
Old Fashioned Divinity and Seafoam Candy
This candy has been around for a while but I’ve never attempted to make it until I heard Papa reminiscing about it. I’ve meant to try it a few times but that was just the little push I needed to give it a go and my family is glad I did. They truly are divine and they almost melt in your mouth!
It’s a good thing that these will only be made for special occasions as they is FULL of SUGAR!
This recipe really isn’t too difficult but it can be a little tricky… having a candy thermometer and a stand mixer make it a little easier.
It takes about 30-45 minutes to make a batch from start to finish (including clean up) but I can take several hours for the candy to set up completely… try not to eat it all before then!
What are some old-fashioned recipes that you remember from your childhood? I’d love to hear about them in the comments below!
