Lemon Meringue Pie
We have tried this many times and everyone loves it. This is an Alton Brown recipe from the FoodTV show "Good Eats". I love this show as Alton is easily one of the most entertaining TV chefs today. I have also NEVER had a bad recipe from his show.
Cream Puffs
Best cream puffs you ever tasted and they are so simple to make! They will win you a Best Dessert award. Friends around the world love this one!
New Fashioned
Apple Pie
We got this recipe from Epicurious (the online recipe search site). This is
the BEST apple pie that you will ever taste. What makes this special? It is
the Grande Marnier!
Pumpkin
Pie
This is part of our Thanksgiving tradition. Wait until Fall to make
this recipe, so you can use fresh pumpkin. Don't buy the canned
stuff!
Pineapple
Cake
The cake is topped off with a cream cheese frosting. This makes
a moist cake that will not dry out the next day.
Pistachio
Cake
Do you need to make a dessert for St. Patrick's Day? The cream frosting
will have any leprechaun show you where the pot of gold is. Substitute
banana cream for pistachio and you can have a yellow cake for Spring.
Rosie's
Cheese Cake
Do you like creamy, melt in your mouth cheese cake? Rosie's cheese
cake is famous in Ware.
Mom's
Nalesniki (dessert pancakes)
Mom always makes these for the neighborhood Christmas party. Make
sure you follow the secret to making these scrumptious crepes. Mom
fills her nalesniki with homemade apple sauce and homemade rhubarb
sauce. They are so yummy!!!!
Whoopie
Pies (devil dogs)
My family always sent these to me when I was in college. I loved
them so much!
Secret
Frosting
Cioci Mary always put secret frosting on chocolate cake. Make this
when you have excess energy to burn. You have to mix and mix and
mix. But....it's worth it!
Orange
Terrine
The lady fingers are so wonderful in this dessert.
Tortoni
One Christmas, Barbara Beaudry made these for dessert. They're oh
so good!!
Pumpkin
Gooey Butter Cakes
We saw Paula Deen on the Food TV Network make this during one of
her shows. It looked so interesting that we had to try it for Thanksgiving.
To say that it was a hit would be a understatement. I have had more
people ask me for this recipe than any other on our site. So, we
have posted the recipe from her show here.
Busy
Day Lemon Cheese Pie
This is a quick and easy dessert. The recipe calls for a Nilla Pie Crust (remember
Nilla Vanilla Wafers?). However, you can also use a shortbread crust (think:
Lorna Doone).
These are a few dishes that I really like to make (and seem to
be popular).
Many have asked for the recipes, so here they are.
