Brandied Cherry and Apple Spice Cake

January 29, 2018December 7, 2020 Jeff the Chef

This Brandied Cherry and Apple Spice Cake is homemade comfort food in a Bundt pan. It’s a delicious olive oil spice cake that deserves to be on a pedestal.

"Gratin," from Make It Like a Man!

"Cordon Rose Banana Cake," from Make It Like a Man!

Cordon Rose Banana Cake with Lemon Buttercream and Chopped Macadamia Nuts

January 2, 2018January 27, 2018 Jeff the Chef

Cordon Rose Banana Cake with Lemon Buttercream and Chopped Macadamia Nuts is made with sour cream, eggs, and butter, and yet it’s deceptively light and airy. It is the comfort food of homemade, from-scratch cakes.

"Graham Cracker Chicken," from Make It Like a Man!

Graham Cracker Chicken Thighs

October 16, 2017February 20, 2022 Jeff the Chef

This recipe for Graham Cracker Chicken produces tender and juicy – and savory – results. It’s not at all sweet, nor does it taste like graham. It just tastes like incredibly good, well-seasoned chicken. It’s serious, everyday, comfort food cooking.

"Kentucky Bourbon Alfredo," from Make It Like a Man!

Kentucky Bourbon Alfredo: It’s Out of This World

October 9, 2017December 26, 2018 Jeff the Chef

This Kentucky Bourbon Alfredo uses a cheese sauce who’s main ingredient is Kentucky Bourton Bellavitano (which is a cheddar-Parmesan hybrid). Not comfort-foody enough, pasta lover? The recipe also calls for mushrooms and chicken … it’s gonna put you down.

"Tuna Casserole," from Make It Like a Man!

Tuna Two-Way: From-Scratch Tuna Casserole

June 26, 2017June 17, 2018 Jeff the Chef

Tuna Two-Way: From-Scratch Tuna Casserole with egg noodles (of course) and mushrooms in a chicken-broth béchamel, topped with fresh bread crumbs. Homemade comfort food.

Vanilla-Pear Panna Cotta with Pear-Caramel Sauce

April 17, 2017April 11, 2017 Jeff the Chef

Vanilla-Pear Panna Cotta with Pear-Caramel Sauce: cream, Williams pear brandy … a sophisticated comfort food.

"Fast Chicken and Slow Potaotes," from Make It Like a Man!

Fast Chicken, Slow Potatoes, (Spinach)

March 20, 2017February 20, 2022 Jeff the Chef

Fast Chicken and Slow Potatoes (w/Spinach). It’s your two favorite comfort-food groups – “baked” and “fried” – along with a few others you might like: “braised” and “fricasseed.”

"Cheesy Potatoes," from Make It Like a Man!

Cast-Iron Skillet Hasselback Potato Gratin Recipe

February 27, 2017February 20, 2022 Jeff the Chef
