Ganache Chocolate Nutella by Amos MillerUse this topping on any thing you wish to enhance with CHOCOLATE, from baked goods to ice cream. It will keep for a couple of days unrefrigerated - a couple of weeks in the cooler. Sprinkle some finely chopped nuts on top of the ganache, if you wish - even some crushed peppermint candy. Gran Marnier and Chambord are great… |

Basic Easy Pie Crust by GlennFor my grandmother, Eva Koehler, this was what passed for "easy." For me, easy means opening the box and removing the sleeve, cutting the end and removing the roll of pie dough then un-rolling the dough and placing it in a greased 9" pan. Translations have been made where appropriate. This is one of a very few recipes in her book… |

Holiday Cranberry Cheese Pie by Denise SherinThis has become a family favorite for holidays. I found it in a Taste of Home cookbook. I have changed the recipe to be more diabetic friendly. The original recipe calls for sugar in both layers and I use Splenda in place of sugar and for the jello I use sugar free gelatin. But use sugar if you like. |

Key Lime Pie-Eggless by shaliniSounds ambiguous and difficult to do?? But this is the easiest and possibly the most refreshing summer dessert. Like a kiss on the tongue…wet, no…not sloppy, but celestial. Just set, and so luscious, deceptive in appearance…ooh I sound like Nigella Lawson. I used to wonder as to how and why she used these ethereal sounding… |

You can "have your pie and eat it too" for less than 150 calories per slice when you make a few changes to the recipe below: just substitute no-added-sugar gelatin, reduced-fat graham… |

Perfect Pie Crust by Libby StarchildThis is from an old church cookbook that my grandmother had. It's a great, simple recipe that can be used to help a little girl make her first pie. I've made single-serving pies in muffin tins, tarts, meat pies (after the pie is sealed you can make a braided edge to make it look pretty). Just be very careful not to work the dough… |

Faux Chocolate Silk Pie by Salad FoodieA chocolate lover’s delight and so easy for Easter or Mother’s Day dessert. Rich and smooth, this take on French chocolate silk pie has a secret - tofu replaces heavy cream! But no one will know the difference - unless you tell! I tried this out on my unsuspecting son who avoids tofu-anything. He sampled it, then scarfed the whole… |
