What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!


3 quarts small beets
3 cups vinegar
2 tablespoons salt
4 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cup water
2 sticks cinnamon, (optional)
Cook beets and set them aside. Combine rest of ingredients and boil them to a syrup. Pour boiling syrup over beets in hot jars, then seal them. Cold pack them for 10-15 minutes.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
