Faux See’s Fudge

Deluxe Homemade See’s Fudge

Faux See's Fudge

 

 

 

 

This is one of my Grandmother’s Recipes made during the holidays … Originating other than in her kitchen. This and divinity were her candy specialities. I wasn’t a chocoholic in those days. It’s taken all these years to try out her recipe. Is it really similar to See’s Fudge, See’s being one of my favorites? Nope, but it’s mighty good just the same!

Banana Cream in Meringue Shells

Banana Cream In Meringue Shells

tonight’s Dessert

Banana Cream in Meringue Shells Meringue Shells are great for serving fruit, sorbet or pudding desserts. Light in taste and calories, slightly crunchy. Make them a bowl, or a pillow of meringue. And yes, it’s pretty good all by itself.

I’ve added a banana cream that works as an 8 inch pie filling as well.

I’m ready for dessert!

Chocolate

Chocolate A Favorite Flavor

Easy Chocolate Pie

It’s no secret … I’m easily a chocoholic. And I’ve found over time good chocolate matters. If I’m taking the time to put together a chocolate dessert and investing the calories when consuming it I want the best chocolate for the recipe. I still have some candy bar favorites from the Parish’s Market days but if chalky or waxy I’m over it. Yes, candy bar ingredients have changed.

I’m in a chocolate kinda mood. And I’m looking at my chocolate dessert recipes. This one can’t be improved. Why change a good thing! But I have a cookie with a bad rap.The pictures just didn’t capture how amazing they are. I had one follower on Facebook mention in his words, looking similar to dinosaur poop. Nope, he wasn’t a paleontologist but a CEO. Hmm, does that explain it?

Applesauce Oatmeal Cookies

Applesauce Oaties

Applesauce Oatmeal CookiesWho’s recipe is this anyway? For years I’ve been shuffling this cookie recipe in and out of my recipe box without trying it … Looking at it … Wondering where it came from … Not recognizing the newspaper  clipping.

An internet search for Applesauce Oaties brings up Mrs. Field’s Applesauce Oaties … the recipe looks identical. But Mrs. Field’s wasn’t up and running in 1975. Was it? The REGISTER September 18, 1975 article doesn’t give mention to the origin. At least not my portion.

No Bake Pumpkin Pie and Italian Meringue

No Bake Pumpkin Pie

Cinnamon Graham Cracker Crust

Italian Meringue Or Simple Roasted Marshmallow Topping

No Bake Pumpkin Pie and Italian Meringue

Every holiday it’s quite a challenge to bake three pies, a turkey and roast vegetables all in the same oven … And well, time it to optimum freshness. It has taken me many years to get this down … And yes, some holidays I just miss disastrous results.

These no bake pies are a great idea anytime. For the holidays they are a nice surprise for the one or two guests who would prefer something other than the traditional pie. Or if you are trying to lighten up the baking serve this as the main dessert. It’s amazing!

You’ll be able to put this pie together a week or weeks before, with the exception of the topping, and hold it in the freezer until ready to serve.

For the more traditional try these:  

Pumpkin Pie  

Pie Crust

All about the extras

For Fun
Love everything here!

Trying out these baking cups. What a great idea! No mess and a nice presentation in no time. Baked my favorite Italian Cream Cake … Then simply dipped each top into melted white chocolate, added a few nuts and coconut … And here it is. Make no mistake there is a definite difference between white melting chips and white chocolate. The word, hydrogenized, we’ve come to recognize, is a big time ingredient in those chips.
