Re: My Big Book of Bisquick arrived today.

I don't know if the recipes are also online.  I use online sources almost exclusively, but I still have a small selection of cookbooks that make me smile - in particular, some vintage Betty Crocker cookbooks.

I got married in 1982 and at that time, the Bisquick Impossible Pie recipes were very popular.  I've made the Zucchini Pie, for instance, many, many times over the years. I'm not sure if it's in the book.  I'm going to look through the book and I'll post a couple of interesting ones for you to see before you order.

Now that you mentioned the "impossible pies", which I remember hearing about for ages in Bisquick advertising campaigns, I looked those recipes up on the Bisquick/Betty Crocker website.  Many  look so good that I'm buying a box of Bisquick next time I'm at the store.......nostalgia meets the modern dinner table!

Lots of impossible pies in the book.

Here's a sampling of the recipes that caught my eye first time through.

I apologize for the poor lighting.
