Reminisce Magazine's contest winning recipe. By: Oma Rollison (my mother) "'This absolutely scrumptious cake needs no icing...just a dusting of confectioners' sugar. Even though this recipe has been a 'family secret' for years, I'm delighted to share it with my fellow Reminisce readers."

Look Great

We love this quiche. It came out cheesy and just delicious. I used 1% milk instead of whole milk, and it was still very creamy. Of course, if you prefer a richer mouth-feel, you can use half and half.

How about having some baked "rats" made of ground beef at Halloween dinner, this will impress everybody!

This Greek-style spinach pie was absolutely delicious! The cheese mixture of ricotta and feta was moist and cheesy, which gave the pie lots of flavors; sauteed mushrooms, spinach, and sun-dried tomatoes were a great combination. The phyllo came out golden brown and crispy. This pie can be served as a lighter main dish or an elegant appetizer.

These deliciously stuffed pork chops are juicy and moist, serve with mashed potatoes or a refreshing veggie salad.

Didn't have marsala so I made a quick red-wine pan sauce using shallots, red wine and a bit of chicken stock and was able to use the brown bits in the skillet and added a touch of butter for a bit of sheen. Also I seasoned the chicken breasts with salt and pepper as well as the spinach with salt, pepper and a pinch of nutmeg. Very colorful and tasty.
