One of my favorite places to eat breakfast is Cracker Barrel Restaurant . . . their hash brown casserole is one of the reasons (and the biscuits and gravy) . . . this recipe comes very close to that casserole!

Russian Tea Cake

"A classic Christmas Cookie, tea cakes are buttery cookie balls filled with nuts, also called Snowball Cookies. They only have a few ingredients and are rolled in powdered sugar after baking. They’re delicate and practically dissolve in your mouth."  Comment from Crazy For Crust

This cookie goes by many names, but it looks like they are a little different.  I remember similar cookies from my childhood, but it was formed more like a crescent and I loved them.  The cookie itself is very delicious and one that you can't just have one, they are very addicting.

"The savory biscuit bottom of this casserole acts as a nice base for a taco-seasoned beef mixture. A layer of mayonnaise, sour cream, and cheese is saucy and creamy. The diced tomatoes and chiles add pops of sweetness, tang, and brightness."  Comment from Southern Living

This casserole has the combination of items that speaks to me, especially the biscuit bottom.  Looks good!!

I've never had this chicken although people I went to Outback with had it and loved it.  The aroma from the chicken was delicious.  Would like to make this!

Fudgy Cocoa Brownies

"To tell if these brownies are done, you want the end of the skewer or toothpick to come out a little moist, but not dripping with batter. When you take the pan out of the oven, make sure the brownies cool completely before slicing. They need time to set up, or they'll fall apart when you cut them." —Simply Recipes Editors

It seems like these brownies are much more decadent and richer than normal brownies.  Sounds delicious.

Hummingbird Cake

"Hummingbird cake is a classic Southern cake that originated in a pamphlet released by the Jamaican tourism board; hummingbirds are an national symbol in Jamaica, thus the name. The cake is indeed nectar-sweet, with mashed bananas and pineapple studding moist layers that alternate with cream cheese frosting."  Comment from Simply Recipes

Hummingbird cake is one of the most delicious cakes I ever had a couple of times.  This cake at a bakery is super expensive but worth it.  Better to make it yourself.
