I see there is tons of recipes for uses of Eggnog - but I would like to see a recipe for
Eggnog itself. My fiancé absolutely loves it and we can't buy it anymore since the holidays
are over! Can anyone help? Recipes that are easy would be great!

Amber

I have a couple of recipe requests that I hope someone can help me with.

I'm looking for a recipe that was in A Taste of Home probably 5-6 years ago. It was called
something like Comforting Chicken Soup. I have searched the archive for the recipe and
cannot find it. It started out with cream of chicken soup and then had other things added to
it.

I'm also looking for a recipe that appeared quite a long time ago in either Woman's Day or
Family Circle for a Christmas kuchen. It was made out of individual spiral rolls and shaped
like a Christmas tree.

Can anyone help find these? Thank you!

Leanne

I would like to find the receipt for Olive Garden's Italian dressing. I know it has egg whites
as part of the ingredients. Thank you,

Donna J.B.

When I was a child my grandmother made the best little pie she called Sugar Pie.

Sandy Kaye               pelealoha2000@yahoo.com

Sugar Pie

1 9-inch pie shell
3 cups white sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups water
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, and salt. Mix well
and gradually pour in water, stirring until mixture is creamy. Pour mixture into pastry
shell and sprinkle with nutmeg. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until edges are very bubbly.

Chess Pie

9-inch unbaked pie shell
3 eggs
1 cup extra fine granulated sugar
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Beat eggs until light in color. Mix dry ingredients and add
slowly to eggs, beating all the while. Melt butter and add to mixture. Pour into unbaked
pie crust and place in oven at 350 degrees F. for 10 to 12 minutes, then reduce heat to
300 degrees F. for twenty minutes, or until it sets.
 

From the following cookbook:

Seems Like I Done it This A-Way
Second Edition 1980 by: Cleo Stiles Bryan Retired Extension Home Economist

Sugar Pie

While talking with hundreds of ladies throughout Kansas & Missouri, many asked me
about "Sugar Pie." A friend of mine, Mrs. Jerry Smith who moved from Indiana, told me
how she made the pie. "It is made without stirring at all."

Sprinkle 1 cup sugar over bottom of an unbaked 9" pie crust.

Take 2 cups of heavy cream or Carnation or Pet [milk], 2-3 tablespoons cornstarch and
mix, just enough to dissolve.

Pour easy over sugar and then take pieces of butter and spread over the mixture. Use a
sprinkle of nutmeg, salt and about 1 tsp. of cinnamon, to make it look pretty and taste
good. By the way, I use real butter. If cream is too heavy, may add a little water. Bake
350 degrees for 1 hour.
