Creole Rice Pudding by Amos Miller

NEVER throw day-old rice away! Next time you have that extra-large Chinese take out and you have some of that white rice left over, you have the base of a fabulous rice pudding, New Orleans-style! This is NOT the junk you have to choose from for dessert ("jello, rice pudding, sherbet") after the regrettable meal at the greasy spoon…

Creole Pralines by Amos Miller

Better than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy! It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the…

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Bar Cookies by Salad Foodie

Quick to make, these bar cookies are a sister version of drop cookies (the dough can actually be made into those if you prefer.) Oatmeal and nuts provide a light crunchiness to the moist and munchy texture. In brief - a delightful cookie your company will love!

Incredible Chocolate Chip Cookies by J. Gino Genovesi

We all know there are many recipes for chocolate chip cookies, with many things added to them. But for a soft, plump, cookie this one is the best I think. I have tried different chocolate chips recipes, but I was not happy with a flat, thin cookie.. Enjoy!

Creole Perfect Sweet Potato Pie by Amos Miller

I have made this recipe for years. There is none better - or so I've been told by some serious and knowing Creole cooks. And while some may say "Well, it sounds just like a pumpkin pie recipe", they are sorely mistaken. This, my friends, is a Creole Sweet Potato Pie. This is the way to eat your vegetables! Vegetables and…

Apple Cobbler Pie by Kiki Thompson

Ok…all I have to say is that this is HEAVEN!!! This is an Apple Cobbler made with a coconut-based whipped topping. All the blended ingredients of cinnamon, lemon juice, and nutmeg make it the perfect cobbler.

Summer Strawberry-Rhubarb Cobbler by Kiki Thompson

This weeks recipe was inspired by all of the rhubarb recipes I’ve seen pop up within the last week on blogs that I am following! With summer FINALLY around the corner here in Utah, I decided to come up with a “summer” cobbler. The recipe that finally got my baking pants into gear was this Rhubarb & Strawberry Lemonade recipe I checked…

Tropical Snowdrops by BearNakedBaker

The dried fruit can be anything you'd like, that's "Tropical". Cashews are also good to use....

Lemon Coconut Pixies by BearNakedBaker

I shape ( using an ice cream scoop #40) my cookies right after dough is made and then refrigerate.

Ruby's Creole Bread Pudding & Butter Rum Sauce by Amos Miller

NEVER throw stale bread away! You have the base for an absolutely delicious Creole bread pudding that will have your guests melting with pleasure. The Rum Sauce is fabulous on all kinds of desserts, from the Creole Rice Pudding to cupcakes. In this case, you want to warm the sauce, rather than chill it, so it is spreadable.…

Peanut Butter Pie by ArcticGypsy

This amazingly easy, frozen dessert is a sure hit, no matter where you want to serve it. For a lighter taste (and an extra pie), use twice the whipped cream and an extra pie crust.

Decadent Cherry Chocolate Dirtcake by Smokinhotchef

Spring and summer is busy season for a favorite southern dessert, dirtcake. It contains no dirt and isn't even a cake. What it is however, is a very delicious and creamy layered dessert, perfect for any occasion. Fresh and sweet cherries really put this dessert over the top. The hardest part is figuring out what serving bowl to…
