Coconut Custard Pie Recipe | Creamy & Easy

|
By Dennis Littley
| Ask Chef Dennis
Rich, creamy custard, sweet toasted coconut, and a flaky, golden-brown pastry crust make my Coconut Custard Pie an irresistible dessert for any occasion. Toasting the coconut before adding it to the filling brings out its natural sweetness and gives the pie a deeper coconut flavor. Audio Player The secret to a good custard pie is getting the texture just right. The filling should be soft and creamy but firm enough to hold its shape when sliced.

Classic French 75 Cocktail Recipe

|
By Dennis Littley
| Ask Chef Dennis
Our French 75 Cocktail recipe uses gin, fresh lemon juice, simple syrup, and Champagne. It’s crisp, bubbly, and refreshing, with just enough sweetness to balance the gin’s tart lemon and botanical notes. What I love about our French 75 Cocktail Recipe is how this simple combination of ingredients can make an elegant, restaurant-quality cocktail. The bright citrus and gin give it plenty of character, while the Champagne lightens everything up with a crisp, effervescent finish.

The double dredge gives the steak its substantial crust, while the browned bits left in the skillet become the flavor foundation for the gravy. You don't need a Southern diner to make really good Country Fried Steak.
