It's so good!

[@RP07662]

Hi Emme - You have inspired me to make some old vintage recipes. So much fun. Thank you!!!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Love that! So fun! Just a reminder as with any vintage cookbook some of the recipes and techniques may not meet up to modern food safety regulations. Please make sure you follow modern food safety measures, applications, and precautions if creating any vintage recipes.

[@debradavid929]

Wow! How yummy looking, I feel like I can even smell it! Enjoy for us all!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

OMG! THAT LOOKS SO GOOD!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

[@FrugalQueeninFrance]

That recipe is just like French Brioche that we eat on special days. I loved your mixing machine. What a great recipe.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you so much for the kind words!

[@tonideluca8569]

Oh Emmy that looked delicious 😋.

[@karenshaffer1511]

I love exploring old cookbooks experientially (actually cooking from them). Either from another time or place is fun so we can learn a little more about how other people experienced at least a small part of life by way of food and cooking. Thanks for this - It looked yummy!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

I agree totally Karen!

[@yawategacres7548]

That looks amazing! I'm going to have to make one of these. Thanks for sharing!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

You are so welcome! It's so good!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

It was delicious!!

[@simonemcowen8171]

Hi Emmy and Paul! I love your channel! It’s so refreshing to find somebody so warm and authentic as you guys are, instead of all the others that seem so artificially polished. I tried your recipe and it turned into the most delicious cake ever! Sending you best wishes from Austria!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

AUSTRIA! Oh my gosh! How very wonderful! So glad you enjoyed the recipe! Thank you so much for being here!

[@laurierios6646]

Hello! This just popped up for me:) Loved learning this recipe! Will definitely try. I also enjoy the Lancaster and AMISH community! Try to buy fresh baked goods from the farms.This bread reminds me of that!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

So good! Thank you Laurie!

[@gloriapeel6887]

Looks so good!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you!!

[@kcalfie4958]

I have that cookbook! So I looked up honey twist and there it was on page 113! Greetings from Missouri.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

YAY! Theresa it's a fun cookbook!

[@jessicacourtney1842]

So I am rewatching all of your past videos and I just have to say… I love Lancaster PA too! It is one of my favorite places in the entire world! I love visiting Bird-In-Hand and going to the big market they have :)

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Us too! Such a lovely area!

[@suewoodpokemon3759]

Fabulous video Emmy and Paul! Thank you.😘

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you so very much Sue! We had fun doing it!

[@suewoodpokemon3759]

Emmy I forgot Linz logged me into KZbin under “sue Pokémon“.. aka Suzanne and Paul.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

LOL! Love that!

[@Drmikekuna]

Hello Emmy and Paul. I really enjoy your channel. Your baking reminds me of my mom, who always had a delicious treat in the oven. Keep up the cooking videos! I just made a couple banana breads (had to use up some over-ripe bananas). My wife and daughter kept asking, "When can we cut one." I bartered and had them make a pot of tea and we all enjoyed the tea and bread. I have a question. How do you keep your bulk yeast fresh? Every time I buy larger quantities of yeast it goes bad before I can use it all.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

We keep yeast unopened in the freezer. If opened, we always store it sealed in an air tight container in the fridge! Thanks so much for the kind words!

[@debbielee4951]

That book is worth a couple of hundred dollars on Amazon.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Wow! Who knew? It was one of my tag sale finds a couple years ago... lol!

[@cindye2423]

Emmy....you just the sweetest soul EVER!!! I cannot begin to even express how much I just love you & Paul!!!! I so look forward to your videos!!!! 🥰 do you have a set schedule for posting your videos? Or is it just whenever??

[@cindye2423]

*are the sweetest soul

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Cindy you are the sweetest! Yes, we post a vlog every Tues. and Friday evening! So happy you found us! Comments like yours is why we do what we do! Thank you dear friend!

[@jenniferschmitt7938]

I am going to try this! I really like that you tweak these recipes and add less sugar. I don't use sugar at all so I swap out sugar with monk fruit. It tends to be a little sweeter than sugar so I will definitely add less of that as well.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Yes! It was so good!

[@emilyrogers3271]

Looks beautiful and sounds yummy!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you 😋

[@cindye2423]

I’m thinking maybe trying this recipe for Christmas morning with our ☕️ 🎄

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

It is so good! It's like a sweet style bread!

[@leeannwicker937]

I love pre-1960 cookbooks because they usually do not ask for a box of this or a can of that just simple basic ingredients.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Exactly! Thanks for watching!

[@heatherl5936]

Looks delicious! Belatedly watching from Lancaster County PA!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh Heather we adore Lancaster! One of our favorite places to visit! Thanks so much for being here!

[@donnasantopietro1901]

Looks amazing. I can’t wait to Try this recipe. I wonder if you can swirl cram cheese with confectionary sugar on the top if that would come out good. ❤️

[@anniecharlotte4469]

I want a piece!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

That was a yummy recipe for sure!

[@NuffinEdited]

Another great video and recipe Emmy and Paul

Yes, please! Can I have a slice of seven?😻

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

LOL! Thank you and you are welcome anytime!

[@libraryminnie7674]

That looks wonderful. I’m glad you skipped the chips, sometimes less is more. I could also see putting some lemon in the icing and skipping the cinnamon. Yummmm!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Great idea! Yes, less is more most of the time lol!

[@terrypelletti8535]

Emmy this looks so good. Going to try this. Thanks again!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

[@karenrogers6149]

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

It was super yummy💕!!

[@janecartmale2884]

Looks yummy, right up my street.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

So good! Thanks for watching!

[@Tara_Tseng]

Still catching up and can’t wait to try this, looks amazing! Have you made it again with Chocolate chips? We are going to add chips to the dough, my daughters request. Thanks for sharing!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

No we didn't. Paul said he thought it would be great without. It was!! Let me know how the chips taste with it!

[@HKhan-wu4hs]

I have a wartime edition of this cookbook. It’s dedicated to General Douglas MacArthur and has about 70 pages of wartime cooking added to the back. Otherwise it is the same as yours. I really like the old Culinary Arts Institute recipes. Many do need additional seasoning to suit modern tastes, but they are an excellent place to start. Their breads are especially good.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh how neat! That would be awesome! Thanks for sharing!

[@karenallen919]

I had that wartime edition also. Loaned it to my grandmother and someone took it from her house. Never saw it again. 😪😥😢😭

[@donnalindsey611]

Pyrex bowls 😊

[@karliepatterson2803]

Paul was right on the chocolate chips, not good with cinnamon maybe raisins?

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Yes, I think raisins would of been good too! Thanks Karlie!

[@SissyKay]

I have that cookbook too...1938...was my mom's. Honey Twist page 113 :)

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh how fun is that!!! Thank you!!

[@gerigowers8318]

There are a few versions of this cookbook on Amazon - 1938, 39, 43. I think I'll pick one up.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

It's a great book! One of my favorites!

[@marymcandrew7667]

Oh wow wow it looks so good! I don't eat eggs, butter or milk anymore so I can't eat it but I think it looks fantastic! I love old recipes too, I have some old cookbooks from England (I live there now) and love reading the old recipes.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Oh thank you Mary so much!! I love the old cookbooks... so fun to peak into a bygone era! Thanks so much for watching!

[@glendagonzalez2469]

I love the thing you used to sprinkle the cinnamon. 😍

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

That is actually a loose tea strainer. I use it for everything though! Thank you for watching!

[@lisashomemadehappiness6782]

This looks sooo yummy! I love your channel! And, I love old cookbooks! ❤ New friend here to support! I hope we can stay connected! XOXOX ❤💕😘

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Welcome so great to have you here! Thank you! Heading over to check out your channel! Keep in touch!

[@MaxxadTV]

Hope you have a great day my friend 🔥🎊

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you! You too!

[@susanf8559]

Looks delicious. Don't have a kitchen aid just a hand mixer,will that work

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you! You can knead it by hand or if your hand mixer has a dough hook attachment that would work.

[@susanf8559]

Thank you!,Susan from central New Jersey

[@monicamoretz5296]

I enjoy your videos so much! I especially enjoyed this one when you said you prayed for your viewers every night. We (my family) could benefit from your prayers right now. We have had tragedy and loss recently and it’s difficult. My uncle passed away yesterday from lung cancer and my cousin passed in a car accident 8 months ago. Also, my other cousin committed suicide some years ago. When I was visiting there house it really smacked me in the face when I saw a family picture and realized of the 5 of them only 2 are still living!! Covid alone makes things difficult but all the loss and death seems almost unbearable. Thanks for your prayers! Also, thanks for your light hearted and enjoyable videos! Tomorrow is my dad’s birthday...he passed 2 years ago! I miss him so much and every day! Even with it all there’s so much to be thankful for!!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

So sorry to hear this Monica! Prayers for you and your family!

[@anjafink8996]

Wow, that's perfect for a Wednesday cake, Sunday cake and for breakfast. I got the same cookbook. The apple pie is a dream! Greetings from Germany! 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Thank you so much! It was yummy!! Greeting and blessings back!

[@kristieprice8015]

Looking forward to fall...that's when I do lots of baking...and unfortunately gain a bit of weight!🤣

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Lol!! I hear you!! Everything seems to taste better in the cold weather! Thanks for watching!

[@helenmorgan1502]

I'll be right over!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Awww thank you!! Anytime!

[@kellihammond4956]

Hello Emmy!

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Hey my dear friend Kelli!!

[@jeannel1065]

Good Morning, Emmy and Paul. That looks really good and was so easy. Thank you. I was thinking that I’d use cinnamon, then you used it-great minds think alike 🤗. I don’t care for honey, but think brown sugar would be a good substitute. From your experience, I’d put it in a larger pan on a cookie sheet to bake. Was the lower amount of salt you used adequate for the taste?

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

Hi Jeanne!! Thank you so much for the kind words! Yes the salt was perfect. My butter was salted that’s why I decreased it. Great idea for the bigger pan. I didn’t have a bigger cake pan unfortunately. It was so good though LOL. Thanks for all the channel support💕

[@jeannel1065]

Frugal Money Saver Glad to hear the salt was right. I only have salted butter and may be a while before I can get unsalted. I received a Better Homes and Gardens Checkerboard cookbook when I got married 50 years ago. Made lots of good recipes, but the family favorite was blueberry muffins. 30 years passed and I bought a replacement cookbook. The muffins were blah. I found a note in front of the book saying they had cut the salt to 1/4 or 1/2 in all the recipes. I upped it to where it had been and the muffins were perfect again. I plan to start making my own bread again if the shortage outlasts my current supply. One of my daughters and my daughter-in-law both needed flour when I asked if they needed anything. They both also asked for canned tomato products. My daughter asked for cheese and my DIL for paper products and pasta. My other daughter also asked for cheese when she runs out-her family is vegetarian. I still need to finish organizing and inventorying my pantry. We gave our neighbor two packs of TP for their family of 3. He gave us a big box of small red potatoes we are sharing. Lots of potato salad in our future.

[@FrugalMoneySaver]

So wonderful you are blessings others! I love making my own bread...so rewarding lol!

[@jeannel1065]

Frugal Money Saver I’m really glad to be in a position to help out.
