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 MillerBetter 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… |

Everything Goes Oatmeal Coookies by J. Gino GenovesiThis is an original recipe. I was making them, years ago, because my children wanted a "loaded" oatmeal cookie that was good, soft and plump. Now my grand children like them and I thought I would pass it on so others can enjoy them. They are easy to prepare and delicious. Chef J. Gino Genovesi |

Strawberry Pie by Aspen Lee-MouldenI've made this pie every summer since I was 10. The crust is a little salty which is a nice accompaniment to the sweet strawberries. Everyone loves it. Fresh, ripe strawberries are a must. |

Easy Pumpkin Cheesecake by Nancy MiyasakiThis is an easy pumpkin cheesecake. Try it, or my pumpkin cheesecake with gingersnaps and walnuts recipe, as a nice alternative to regular pumpkin pie. Neither will kill your craving for pumpkin pie this holiday season, but they might create a new craving for you! This is adapted from a Paula Deen recipe. Thanks Paula! |

Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick! by Salad FoodieI haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen. |

Fusion can be confusin', so let's get back to an ol' timey American dessert, not found on menus in fancy restaurants.

Best Blueberry Bread Pudding with Lemoncello Sauce by Amos MillerThis is cooking school 101. Easy - and impressive, which takes it to graduate school! Besides, I also have blueberries to use before this year's crop begins to fruit out. The end result is every bit as delicious as the photo appears. |
