B: Brendon’s Birthday (Turtle Cake)

My first AtoZ challenge recipe. The first thing that came to mind when I thought of the letter “A” is apple! I’ve been craving some delicious rice pudding and so I decided to put my own twist on the normal rice pudding recipe I use. You can find the recipe for the rice pudding I […]
Allow me to clarify…these are not made of real porcupines…I swear. These meatballs are called “porcupine” because of the rice in the meatballs that resembles the “spikes” of a porcupine.
