Old-Fashioned Hot Fudge Sauce
This is a very classic old-fashioned hot fudge sauce for all your chocolate whims. Of course, it is perfect for ice cream, but consider using it as a sauce over cheesecake as well — delicious.
Clark's Quiche
Clark's quiche is excellent served for breakfast with fruit, or at lunch or dinnertime with a salad. This recipe makes two 9-inch pies. The reason for this is because if you only make one you will hate yourself the next day when there are no leftovers. The quiche microwaves well the next day. In fact, most people say that the flavors have blended better on the second day... If in the strange case that you are filled up with one pie, this is a great gift to give a friend or relative, or if you are stingy...it freezes well with tin foil.
Buttercream Frosting
This is a buttercream frosting I normally put on birthday cakes. It's like the frosting that bakeries put on cakes, extra rich and creamy from the egg yolk, but I much prefer to make my own since I know what I am putting into it, and as always, homemade is best. Makes 2 1/2 cups or enough frosting to cover tops and sides of two 8- or 9-inch layers.
