Black Forest poke cake with hot fudge, cherry pie filling and whipped cream for tomorrow which is my mother’s 84th birthday.
Well then I can be you best friend I love pies and cakesI'm a good cook. I can cook a lot of stuff, but I really like to make pies and cakes.
I've been on a pie kick of late. I love my sweets, but would really rather be able to control the sugar. Most home recipes are lower sugar than commercial, per the DIL who operated a bakery, but they are still pretty generous.I'm a good cook. I can cook a lot of stuff, but I really like to make pies and cakes.
A real easy pie and still way better than store bought is this: Buy a Pillsbury ready made pie crust,I wish I was a baker I can cook almost anything but can’t or never really tried to bake cakes snd pies maybe someday I also like to smoke meats
Thanks I will try thatA real easy pie and still way better than store bought is this: Buy a Pillsbury ready made pie crust,

Two or three cans of cherry pie filling, (or apple, etc) put one crust in a pie pan, add the filling and dot with butter, then add top crust, sealing the edges. Trim any crust Cool overhang. following directions on the filling can. I usually go about ten minutes longer though. Then when done you have a darn good pie.
You can put a lot of love in home made pie crust, but you really would be hard pressed to make it taste better, or find the one person that may tell the difference. The Wally World Great Value brand is so comparable, I'd say Pillsbury makes it for them.A real easy pie and still way better than store bought is this: Buy a Pillsbury ready made pie crust,

You are killing meYou can put a lot of love in home made pie crust, but you really would be hard pressed to make it taste better, or find the one person that may tell the difference. The Wally World Great Value brand is so comparable, I'd say Pillsbury makes it for them.
For me, it isn't worth the time and effort to make a crust batch.
Since I rarely do pics, here is a teaser for dessert for the weekend, and yes there is vanilla Blue Bell in the freezer, because despite popular belief, we are civilized.

We need pics next timeI’ve never even thought of taking food pics in my life; but…
Last night; I made tempura zucchini and Krab legs.
They came out great (it was a “first try”); but no pics…
