Mon Gateau Au Chocolat

Mon Gateau Au Chocolat by Ali El Safy

An absolutely wonderful cake; most traditionally served without icing. If you're including kids, might want to add your favorite, but I love it the "old school" way!

Never Fail Chocolate Cake

Never Fail Chocolate Cake by Glenn

One of the easiest, and moistest chocolate cakes you will ever bake. My grandmother, Eva Koehler, called it her "never fail" recipe. It is nearly impossible to screw up. She always topped it with peanut butter icing (which is simply a white icing with peanut butter mixed in to taste).

Japanese “Rare” Cheesecake by Henry Moline

No bake cheesecakes are called “rare cheesecakes” in Japan. It is a soft type of cheesecake and usually gelatin is used to harden the filling. Rare cheesecakes are chilled and served with fresh fruits or fruit sauces. It is a very easy cheesecake to make at home

Although I commonly make this pie during the holiday season, I sometimes like to bake this pie during other times of the year. It is super decadent, and ridiculously easy!

Basic Easy Pie Crust

Basic Easy Pie Crust by Glenn

For 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…

Grandma Koehler's Pumpkin Pie

Grandma Koehler's Pumpkin Pie by Glenn

Grandma Koehler preferred the long neck green stripe pumpkin (actually a gourd) for her pies. The result was that in addition to the unique taste the filling was stringy, much like spaghetti. If you are not that venturesome, any good pumpkin will work just fine with this recipe. It is not an easy recipe but it includes a number of…

Open Faced Peach Mango Cobbler w/Crystallized Ginger

Open Faced Peach Mango Cobbler w/Crystallized Ginger by Smokinhotchef

Peaches and mangoes are wonderful and bright with natural, juicy sweetness, unmatched by many. This cobbler is a little more figure friendly in that there is only one crust as opposed to the traditional two. Ginger makes a notable appearance in this recipe for a natural spiciness and the luxury of being one of the super spices and…

Aunt Betty's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

Aunt Betty's Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars by Carolinaheartstrings

To be honest with you, my aunt’s recipe was chocolate chip cookies, not bars, but I decided to make them into bars one evening when I wanted something sweet and did not want to bake endless pans of cookies (her recipe makes about 70 cookies). I used to make these cookies all the time when I was a teenager and I have not made her…
