IN A HURRY? NO TIME? ….NOTHING could be easier if you want a delicious cheesecake pie that takes just five minutes to make! I based it on Martha Stewart’s recipe and changed a few things to make it even easier. It uses just 5 ingredients: a ready-made graham cracker pie crust, cream cheese, condensed milk, lemon juice and vanilla extract. That’s it! NO baking, NO…

For many decades, Cherry Cream Cheese Pie has been a favorite no-bake recipe! It first appeared in the1960’s as Borden’s Cherry-O Cream Cheese Pie. It became extremely popular and has been ever since! But to me, my mother-in-law Ruth’s little addition to it is the best! Her little change puts it above all the rest! I don’t see it done her way anywhere! She adds…
A REAL TREAT FOR A CHEAT! It is a soft-centered brownie pie that is firm enough on the outside rim to make nice neat wedges when you cut it. I don’t like pies that make a mess when you cut them, so this one I like. Use 4 ounces of your favorite chocolate bar! If you want to be extra decadent go ahead and serve…
This is the Lemon Meringue Pie recipe that I use and love! It is not overly sweet. To me, it is just right! lt sure beats using a lemon pudding mix in a box.

Butternut Squash is naturally sweet and it makes a wonderful pie! I like it better than Pumpkin pie! I bake the fresh butternut squash so it peels easily and then I puree it. You can use the canned or frozen squash istead if you want. Squash pie is delicious! See my steps how to make it in the slideshow below. Enjoy!
This is one of my favorite holiday pies! Apples, cranberries and walnuts go really well together! I have tried several recipes for this pie.

Canned pumpkin? No, not me. For decades now, I have opted out! Have you ever had pumpkin pie made from real pumpkins? Canned pumpkin filling is good, but using the real pumpkin tastes even better. If you never had fresh pumpkin pie, you are missing out on the real taste of pumpkin! You can use regular pumpkins, but the smaller sugar pumpkins are ideal for…
This is an oldie but goodie peach pie recipe that is the best ever! And I’ve tried a few different ones. It goes back decades, to the 1970’s. I based this recipe on a Betty Crocker one, but can’t find one like it anymore in their archives. I love Betty Crocker! They gave it in two pie pan sizes, a 9-inch and a 10-inch. I…

“There is no other brownie pie recipe like this one! I got this in 1971 from my soon-to-be mother-in-law who loved to try new recipes. It has NO FLOUR in it and not many other ingredients either. It is a thin pie, like a torte. It is so delicious and so moist! It is not your typical brownie pie where you feel you need a…
