Triple Layer Chocolate Pie

Guys, this pie is everything! This is probably the wrong time of the year to share a no-bake pie with you.  You know, because everyone wants those kinds of recipes in the summer time to avoid turning on the oven.  But think of it this way… if you make this pie now then you can use the oven time for all the other foods on your list, like cookies.  I’m always thinking.  😉 So first and foremost, this pie is ridiculously delicious.  I’m kind of obsessed with it because it’s so tasty. It’s hard to go wrong with chocolate and …

Triple Berry Pie

Mmm pie.  Do I start all my post about pie that way?  I don’t remember. I have mixed emotions about pies.  I love, love, love to eat them, so let’s set that straight.  However, I’m not necessarily a fan of making them because it’s a bit of a process for me. Did I cut the fruit the right size?  Do I have too much fruit?  Do I have too little fruit?  Did I roll the crust the right size to fit the pan?  Is the pie done cooking?  How about now?  Am I taking it out too early?  Did the filling thicken …

Chocolate Pie

Is there anything better than a chocolate pie?  Well, maybe, but I don’t imagine much.  😉 This dreamy deal is everything you’d ever want in a chocolate pie.  The filling is smooth and chocolaty and the crust is flaky and delicious.  Yup, this is one of the most awesome things that I’ve ever made so far. I made this pie twice last month.  I wish that I could say it was done on purpose.  Twas’ the night before Christmas and I wanted to bring pie to my mother-in-law’s for dessert.  I diligently made it the day before so that it …

Broccoli Quiche

Quiche is always a good idea for brunch.  Am I right or am I right? For one of our hosting gigs last month, I wanted to make my crustless spinach quiche.  I’ve been making that recipe for years and it’s always a winner.  I thought I had spinach at home but I was wrong.  (Ugh, must pay better attention when making the grocery list.)  I didn’t want to spend 30 minutes in the car to make a grocery run (and I didn’t want to ask, I mean beg, my husband to go either) so I did some quick thinking.  I …

Apple Pie

Happy Thanksgiving! Yes, I realize that you’re probably out shopping on this Black Friday.  (Kudos to you if you got up early.  I have a date with my pillow.)  I also know that you may be sick of Thanksgiving foods.  But really, who could ever get tired of pie?!  Not me, yo.  So I declare the day after Thanksgiving to be Pie Friday. For the past two years (aka ever since I started my blog) I’ve wanted to share my mother-in-law’s apple pie recipe with you because it’s the best apple pie I’ve ever had.  I’ve actually been making it since way …
