From Tony:
I’m a big fan of cooking from a scratch, as you probably are. But there are times where making something easy is just preferable.
The dessert hacks on social media have been interesting. This one is a way to dress up a box cake mix.
Quick dessert for the family or friends. This one is really sweet, but worth a shot.
Fingers and I tried this on the latest episode of EDS. Let us know what you think.

Get ready for a lively discussion on bourbon trends, cigar pairings, and generational differences - all with a heavy dose of humor.
We dive right in, analyzing the latest news about major shifts in the bourbon industry. Are younger generations turning away from whiskey? We debate the implications. Tony and I also review standout cigars and bourbons, including the hard-to-find Arturo Fuente Shark and Costco's Kirkland Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon. Along the way, we ponder whether meatballs make any sense -- and rant about modern influencer culture.

From Tony -
This is the recipe we featured on the show. Yes, I make these meatballs because my kids are kosher. This means no cheese (which I personally love in a meatball!)
The ground beef has to be 80/20. otherwise it's too lean and things can get really dry.
4lbs ground beef (80/20)
1/2 cup chopped dried onions
1 TBSP Garlic Powder
4 Eggs
3/4 cup ketchup
4 TSP salt
1 TSP pepper
4 TBSP parsley dried
2 TBSP basil dried (We grow our own basil, so more often than not I use fresh basil in this recipe....and everything else I do.)
2-3 cups of bread (something on the soft side. Shred and then soak in seltzer water. You want it wet, but not to the point of being mush.)
Mix everything together (by hand or using a mixer, your choice.)
Make in to balls (I am usually 1 1/2" to 2" )
Bake at 375 for 30 minutes. You can choose bring down the cooking time by 5 minutes, then turn on your broiler for extra crispness. Again, your choice.
Serve with side of your favorite marinara sauce.
Enjoy!
