"Chocolate Cream Pie," from Make It Like a Man!

Chocolate Cream Pie

July 31, 2023August 1, 2023 Jeff the Chef

Homemade, bakery-quality, chocolate cream pie with a toffee-curious pretzel crust, luscious filling, and whipped cream topping.

"Spanakopita," from Make It Like a Man!

Spanakopita

January 16, 2023September 30, 2024 Jeff the Chef

Greek spinach pie with a phyllo pastry crust. You’d think it’d be hard, but it’s pretty approachable. And so worth it!

Chicken, Leek, and Mushroom Picnic Pies with Crème Fraîche Dijon Sauce

July 11, 2022June 13, 2022 Jeff the Chef

Chicken, Leek, and Mushroom Picnic Pies – with thyme, tarragon, shortcrust pastry, and crème fraîche Dijon are sophisticated comfort food.

"Thanksgiving," from Make It Like a Man!

Thanksgiving Planner 2021

November 8, 2021November 15, 2021 Jeff the Chef

Thanksgiving Dinner 2021: A Traditional-Style Feast for Six. A how-to for a homemade feast, from turkey to pie.

"Small Apple Pie," from Make It Like a Man!

A Small Apple Pie That’s Huge on Deliciousness

September 20, 2021September 21, 2021 Jeff the Chef

Deep-dish-loaded with apples, covered in a Dutch streusel. This is a small apple pie, but in no way an inferior one.

"Blueberry Hand Pies," from Make It Like a Man!

Two-Fisted Blueberry Hand Pies

August 5, 2019September 7, 2023 Jeff the Chef

Two-Fisted Blueberry Hand Pies with a traditional, butter-and-shortening, shortcrust pastry dough, an abundant and delicious filling, and a sugar glaze. You can bake them in a toaster oven.

"Pop-Tarts," from Make It Like a Man! In-flight dining

Blackberry-Saskatoon Hand Pies: Pop-Tarts, Perfected

July 29, 2019July 12, 2023 Jeff the Chef

The sour-cream-and-butter dough for these homemade Blackberry-Saskatoon Hand Pies is somewhere in between pie crust and pastry. A touch of glaze makes them perfectly sweet. They’re sort of like Pop-Tarts, except we left out the thiamine mononitrate, the palm oil (with TBHQ for freshness!), the dextrose, the high fructose corn syrup … you get the picture.

"Blueberry Pie," from Make It Like a Man!

January 23: National Pie Day

January 23, 2015April 27, 2015 Jeff the Chef

Happy National Pie Day!

"No-Bake cheesecake aux fraises et speculoos," from Mariz au lait, via Make It Like a Man! The No-Bake Cheesecake Hall of Fame

No-Bake Cheesecake

January 11, 2014January 30, 2018 Jeff the Chef

Cream cheese and Cool Whip (or whipped cream) form the foundation of this easy dessert recipe. Does it qualify as baking if you don’t have to put this cheesecake in the oven? I’m going to say yes.
