Cooking Recipe Cooking Articles >>Dessert Tips: Enjoy These Pie Possibilities
by News Canada
(NC)—There may not be a better dessert than a mouth-watering slice of pie fresh from the oven. But serving your pie with a dollop of whipped cream, or "a la mode" with a cool scoop of vanilla ice cream can dress up this treat. Add a dash more creativity and a humble pie becomes a true work of art that will have your family and friends coming back for seconds.
"You can make your own pie from scratch or serve one our new line of frozen "unbaked" pies -that look and taste just like they're homemade," says Chris Glowienka, spokesperson for Sara Lee. "Either way, here are some other 'pie possibilities' to elevate this favourite dessert from delectable comestible to mouthwatering masterpiece."
- • Make individual treats by cutting a baked and chilled pumpkin pie into bite-sized squares. Place a decorative toothpick in each bite.
- • Sprinkle the top of your apple pie with shredded cheddar cheese three to five minutes before the end of baking.
- • Break up apple pie leftovers into an ovenproof dish, cover with grated cheese and raisins. Microwave or run under the broiler until the cheese melts. Yum!
- • Remove the streusel topping from one of Sara Lee's frozen, unbaked Dutch Apple Pies and place it in a bowl. Mix the streusel with raisins nuts, dried fruit, or a combination. Replace streusel topping on the frozen pie and bake according to instructions. For a festive holiday flourish, cool the pie, and then add whipped topping and cranberry sauce.
- • For a decadent "Pecan Sundae", cut out a circle of pecan pie and top with a scoop of butter pecan ice cream. Drizzle with butterscotch sauce, pile on whipped topping and garnish with crust crumbles from the pie and top with a maraschino cherry. Eat it and weep.

Cube Steak Recipes
by Hans Dekker
Are you searching for some new and exciting cube steak recipes? Well, first let’s look at why cube steak is so popular. Cube steak or minute steak, as some people may call it, comes from the butcher tenderizing round steak before packaging. This is done by using a butcher’s tenderizer. It does not take long to cook this time of steak hence came the name minute steak.
There are many different cube steak recipes from countries all over the world. Since the steak has been tenderized already you do not have to worry about pounding, marinating, or anything else to make your meat tender before preparing. It can be used to fry, grill, in a crockpot or broiled. Just remember not to overcook the meat. This can cause it to become tough and rubbery.

Making Hamburger Recipes is Easy and Fun
by Donna Monday
When I was a kid Wimpy from the old Popeye cartoon show was one of my favorite characters because he expressed a deep love and obsession with hamburgers on a bun. Wimpy was always looking for hamburgers and wasn’t happy unless his plate was piled high with steaming hot hamburgers.
Even though I could only eat one, I easily related to Wimpy’s love of hamburgers, especially cheeseburgers. As I grew up I discovered how easy it was to make a meal out of cooking hamburgers and putting them on a hamburger bun. Add a little ketchup or hamburger sauce and you’ve got yourself a quick lunch or dinner.
While I’m not sure about the real history of the hamburger (a couple of towns claim to be the home of the original burger) I do know that they’re popul Making Hamburger Recipes is Easy and Fun
