[Catshrink]

is there a finer dessert? Discuss....

[JVS]

1. Schwarzwalderkirschtorte!

How could peach pie beat that?

[Catshrink]

4. OK, I give up....

what is Schwarzwalderkirschtorte?

[Kathy in Cambridge]

5. Black Forest Cake

:9

[Cassandra]

7. Black forest torte

Chocolate and cherries. I'd prefer a little molten chocolate cake, myself.

[JVS]

10. This

The brown flakes are shaved chocolate


and it is damned good.

[EstimatedProphet]

18. YES!!!!

And also mentioned in Young Frankenstein, so it has the much-sought-after Mel Brooks Seal of Approval.
Got a chocolate/peanut butter cake right now. Yummy!

2. Well i dont want to disparage

Peach pie, but i already made a most excellent carmel pecan cheesecake for tommorrow.

[Catshrink]

3. Yum...

Sounds like a winner to me.

[tigereye]

9. generally prefer home made

made a killer peach blueberry from scratch for 4th of July, but taste in pie is very idiosyncratic. Peach pie=good. BTW Schwarzwaldkirschtorte is Black Forest Cherry Cake, if I recall correctly. But it isn't pie!

[AlCzervik]

14. OK, i'm going to admit

right here, right now that i make cheesecakes only....why? I am afraid of pie crust. My 3 adventures into pie crust land deemed me a total failure, i cant touch it. Someday i hope to overcome this because homemade always tastes so much better.

[tigereye]

17. well I have to admit I did use a pre-made pie crust

my mom taught me to make a real one, but I am too lazy

6. I can't believe you just posted this...

I just now finished the last of mine. It is (was) exquisite.

8. Buy Cleaning Products at Costco

Please support your union brothers and sisters trying to make a living wage at your local union grocery store. Support your union bothers and sisters in the bakery department at your local grocery store.

Unless the Costco you patronize is union, I would encourage you to just buy paper products, cleaning products, and the like there.

[brokensymmetry]

13. Union is good.

The only problem is...there isn't a Union grocery store within 100 miles of where I live.

Ahh, yes, Texas. What can I say? :shrug:

[Lorien]

24. Costco gives 100% of donations to Dems

and the average salary for a Costco worker is $40,000 a year. They also get great benefits, despite stockholder grumblings. The CEO said he'd rather serve customers and his employees well than make .25 more per share (he also takes one of the smallest CEO salaries around). So I say, go ahead! You can have your Costco cake and eat it too!

[Bozita]

11. I gained three pounds while reading this thread

must be the picture

[brokensymmetry]

12. Costco's pies are wonderful!

Peach is good...the berry pie is really nice, too!

But I guess my favorite is home made German Chocolate cake, with the pecan frosting all over it instead of just on top!

[havocmom]

15. As much as I love peach pie, it's a toss up

with my home made blackberry cobbler. Never could decide which was better. My brother says nothing beats my chocolate pie though.

Anybody like hot apple pie topped with cheddar? That's a close second.

[pagerbear]

16. Chocolate mousse

Without a doubt

[Taverner]

19. Peach pie has no chocolate

and by virtue of that, it is incomplete.

[Bertha Venation]

21. Ach. You must try this:

Choose your favorite chocolate ice cream. Mine's Breyers. Cover it with sliced peeled peaches. (Believe it or not, canned are okay for this too.) Consume.

Heaven in a bowl. It'll give you such a TBO that you'll wake up the next morning w/ your genitals buzzing. Trust me. :9

[fudge stripe cookays]

20. Turtle cheesecake, baby! n/t

[The Zanti Regent]

22. Marie Callender's FRESH Blackberry pie

They serve it only 2-3 weeks of the year and it is HEAVEN!

[SW FL Dem]

23. Costco's chocolate cakes. n/t

[Zomby Woof]

25. after the chicken?

lol

[Catshrink]

26. Makes a damn fine meal

Costco chicken followed by a slice of Costco peach pie. Washed down with a little Full Sail or Bass. Ummmmm.

[Zomby Woof]

27. yes, but

Does Costco have dentists? ;-)

28. Groundcherry Pie.

Now that's eat'n.

[Catshrink]

29. What is groundcherry pie?

I love cherry pie... Costco cherry pie is very very good!

[Wapsie B]

32. Groundcherries,

also known as husk tomatoes to some, are the size of small marbles and tan in color when ripe. They make the best pie in this world.

GROUND CHERRY PIE

Ground cherries, also known as husk tomatoes, produce tiny tomato-like fruits in papery husks on low, lanky bushes. This is an old Mennonite recipe with a crumb topping.

2 1/2 cups pitted ground cherries
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon water
1 (9-inch) pie shell
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Wash ground cherries and place in unbaked pie shell.

Mix brown sugar and 1 tablespoon flour and sprinkle over cherries. Sprinkle water over top.

Mix together the 3 tablespoons flour and 3 tablespoons sugar. Cut butter in until crumbly. Top cherry mixture with crumbs.

Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F and continue to bake for 25 minutes.
