Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

One taste about forty years ago made me fall in love with the Chocolate Chip Cake with Butterscotch filling. I've made it for almost that many years for my childrens' birthdays. They ask for it every year. I think it tastes best the next morning when I sneak a slice with coffee for breakfast! Yes!

Got this recipe years ago from a beloved college roommate who has since passed away. We make it every New Years in her memory. Itâs a winner.
