CRISPY CAJUN CHICKPEA CAKES (VEGAN)

Steps:

• Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Saute onion, green pepper, and celery for 5-7 mins, until softened. Remove from heat.
• Place chickpeas in a food processor along with the onion mixture. Pulse until chickpeas are no longer whole, but don't process them too much. Place chickpeas in a bowl and add spices, hot sauce, and parsley. Mix well. Add flour and cornstarch and mix well. Place in the fridge for 30 minutes.
• Heat oil in a frying pan over med/med-hi heat (around 350 degrees). Shape chickpea mixture into 12 patties and fry in batches, about 2-3 mins per side, or until crispy and browned. Flip a few times if they are browning too quickly.

HOLIDAY RING CAKE

Steps:

• With electric beaters, cream butter and cream cheese.
• Add sugar mix well.
• Beat in zest and vanilla.
• Add eggs, one at a time beat well after each addition.
• Reserve 1/4 cup flour.
• Sift remaining flour with baking powder and blend into creamed mixture.
• In a small bowl combine both kinds of raisins, candied fruit and maraschino cherries; toss with the 1/4 cup flour. (The cherries I like to leave whole--I think they look nice when the cake is cut, but its up to you to either leave them whole or chop them.).
• Stir fruit into batter.
• Pour into greased and floured 10-inch bundt or tube pan.
• Bake 300°F for 70-80 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes then turn out onto wire rack to cool completely.
• I have made this cake in loaf pans (2) (Bake time for loaf is 45-55 minutes) which allows me to cut them into smaller servings and I put them on my Christmas goodie trays. This cake freezes well.
