Tiramisu

Posted by DiB's  

Searched the Internet extensively and it is NOT easy to find an EASY Tiramisu recipe! Usually, we use the one on the inside of the mascarpone lid, but we bought a different brand with no recipe. Make this if you want luscious, creamy tiramisu... — Jay3fer Nov 21, 2009

Beer Bread

Posted by Gerald Norman  

Super-easy and extra-yummy! I used a strong, flavourful local brew and thought for sure my four kids would comment on the "beery" taste. Nope! This is easily the yeastiest quick bread you've ever tasted. Anyone who doesn't know the secret will... — Jay3fer Sep 17, 2009

Beer Batter

Posted by Janice Haskamp  

I was looking for a beer batter recipe to make corn fritters. My family LOVES corn fritters, and this recipe more than satisfied everybody. Don't worry if you don't like beer - it just gives a yeasty "depth" to the flavour; there is no "beer"... — Jay3fer Aug 26, 2009

Passover Cottage Cheese Cake

Posted by coconutty  

No idea why everybody gets so excited to see a cheesecake at a Pesach meal, but there it is. There's really no reason why not! This cheesecake is so luscious, I'd use it again for Shavuos. Not too rich, not too sweet, but just enough of all the... — Jay3fer Apr 13, 2009

Chocolate & Olive Oil Mousse (Passover)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by blucoat  

I wouldn't have believed it! I was scared it would taste overwhelmingly like olive oil, but NO. Miraculously, it is a subtle undertaste, but way overwhelmed by the rich chocolatiness of this mousse. A fabulous way to avoid all that cottonseed... — Jay3fer Apr 12, 2009

Chocolate Mousse Cake for Passover

Posted by Chava Cohen  

This is my classic fallback Pesach recipe and it always gets RAVE reviews. Thinking about all that margarine kind of makes me shudder, but this is utterly delicious. You won't believe there's no flour in the bottom layer... and no dairy in the top! — Jay3fer Apr 8, 2009

Heloise's Cake Mix Cookies

Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

Wow! So easy & delish! I used store-brand white cake mix and a couple of tsps of almond extract. Formed mixture into balls, dipped in sugar and topped with a small cluster of slivered almonds. Taste & texture just right: delightful! — Jay3fer Mar 27, 2009

Butter Crust

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by mainecooncat  

Oh, my, gosh! When I volunteered to make four assorted quiches for a potluck last week, I didn't relish the thought of fiddling with homemade crusts, but didn't want to stick people with the frozen kind, either (that's what we usually use for... — Jay3fer Mar 26, 2009

Faux Fudge -- Jello Pudding Fudge

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Mirj  

The ultimate comfort food... be sure to save some to share with other people! (or double the recipe, just in case) When you first mix the pudding, butter and milk, it will be VERY thick and you may think there's no way you can boil the mixture.... — Jay3fer Mar 10, 2009

Hamentashen

Posted by Studentchef  

Taste yummy and they turned out nice and sturdy for packing, a real plus of an oil-based dough. However, I'm giving three stars because the directions are incomplete. How much water / orange juice is needed? (Enough to make a "nice dough?" If... — Jay3fer Mar 9, 2009

The Ultimate Lemon Meringue Pie

Posted by PanNan  

Filling is way more flavourful than storebought lemon-pie mix! I'll be honest: I'm in a rush today, so I didn't try the crust & meringue, but I'm intrigued and will definitely come back to this recipe and hopefully try both next time... )) — Jay3fer Mar 6, 2009

Fluffy Eggless Pancakes

Posted by CookingForThree  

Wow! I always figured the eggs a) held the pancakes together and b) made them fluffy. This extremely simple recipe disproves both of those... now I'm not sure why most recipes call for eggs! Like others, reached for this on a morning when we... — Jay3fer Mar 4, 2009

Noodles with spicy peanut sauce

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by ~Rita~  

Yum, yum! This is almost the same as the impromptu peanut sauce I have been making for years... I just mix the whole thing up in a small saucepan and give it a bit of a boil to heat the PB along with the other ingredients. It thickens up quite a... — Jay3fer Feb 23, 2009

Roasted Green Beans

Posted by Seamouse  

This is one of those recipes (maybe I should even put it in quotes, because it's more of a METHOD than a recipe!) that should be obvious... seeing it here was a lightbulb moment. You could definitely add and probably one of several other things -... — Jay3fer Feb 13, 2009

Blueberry Sour Cream Cake

Posted by Judy from Hawaii  

Very nice. I used margarine and non-dairy sour cream (Tofutti's Sour Supreme) to make this a pareve cake I could serve with a meat meal (for kosher reasons). It survived the switch beautifully! Not too sweet, fruity enough for dh - only 1 piece... — Jay3fer Feb 4, 2009

Almond Biscotti

Posted by P4  

Yummy! Jewish folks will know these as mandelbroit (almond "bread"), and this recipe turned out super-authentic. I overbaked them on the second toasting and they turned out a tiny bit too hard, but better that than cookie-crumbly like too many... — Jay3fer Jan 6, 2009

Olive Garden Garlic Alfredo Sauce

Posted by DiB's  

Yum, yum, yum! Mine didn't thicken up, even after 20-25 minutes of simmering, so I got impatient and dumped the parmesan in and we ate it as-is. I don't know how thick it was supposed to be, but this was absolutely delicious. ONLY mix with... — Jay3fer Jan 4, 2009

Auntie's Delicious Soft Pretzels, Amish Recipe

Well, I've never tried the mall pretzels (and certainly, you wouldn't want to do a cost comparison, as a previous reviewer has, because the mall pretzels, I assume, require ZERO work for an almost-PERFECT product), but I did make these exactly as... — Jay3fer Dec 22, 2008

Churros

Posted by Mille® ™  

Worked out great. I doubled it, but added 1/4 c of sugar to the water and butter as they boiled (don't use margarine, whatever you do!), because I don't like unsweetened batters. They were delicious plain, and even more so with the sugar and... — Jay3fer Dec 21, 2008
