I make the "Not yo mommas bananna pudding" now. It's Paula Deens recipe made with cream cheese, instant french vanilla pudding, condensed milk, chessman cookies and  bananas of course. I used to take it to our work pot luck lunches before I retired and it was a favorite dessert. My coworkers would always tell me to bring it and they would line up to get their share. There was never any leftovers


@Goodie2shoes :  I also make Paula Deen's not yo mommas banana pudding" and it is to die for.  My mother make the original banana pudding and she was a great cook, but give me Paula Deen's any day.    Not a drop left in the pan after a party.

Sugar Cream Pie is a Hoosier (Indiana) thing but my mom's recipe calls for mostly brown sugar instead of white.  I haven't had her sugar cream pie in years.  I do have the recipe though.

If you don't mind, could you please share the recipe?  I have never seen that title in any cookbook.  Many thanks!

@house_cat You cook a lot, do you know of this pie? I know you bake a lot. Very interesting!Smiley Happy


@ECBG....I'll look for it tonight and, hopefully, will get it posted tomorrow.

Watermelon. 




What a memory! The house where we grew up had a retaining wall, so the driveway and most of the backyard was level. The retaining wall was about 8 feet above the yard next to the driveway.

 

If we had watermelon for dessert, we were allowed to eat the watermelon sitting on the edge of the retaining wall. And we could spit the seeds onto the yard below. 

 

It was about the most fun playing with food that we were allowed.

Something that my high school French teacher introduced to a small group of students who came to her apartment for dinner.

 

She had perfect fresh strawberries in one bowl; sour cream in another; brown sugar on a plate.

 

We dipped the fresh berries in sour cream, then rolled them in the brown sugar.

 

It was one of those life-changing moments.

@ECBG I have the 1955 version Of Betty Crocker's cookbook and I have made the coconut cake and 7 min frosting many times when the children were home!

 

It is wonderful.

My sons would say their late grandmother's chocolate cake with sickening sweet white icing.  That's exactly how they discribe it.  They still talk about it.

Crème Brûlée or Bread Pudding.


@proudlyfromNJ 

I made a bread pudding for  the New Year, and used challah  for the bread and egg nog instead of the milk  in the recipe. It was delish.
