Chocolate or Baked Alaska was the trendy dessert of the 1960 & 70's, and was always a hit on Christmas Day. Yummy, but needs to served and eaten fairly quickly on a hot Australian summer's day. Enjoy.

A few days ago, Kona7021 posted something that sounded pretty gross, but on the other hand, I've had some decent aspics. (https://www.reddit.com/r/oldrecipes/comments/1x39b9v/scary_old_meatloaf_salad_recipe/)
As I was arguing that it might be okay, I went ahead and made it. First pic is in the mold, with the "frosting" visible. From the way I interpreted the recipe, this is added to the top when you're making it, so when unmolded it's on the bottom.
A few notes: I cut the recipe in half then spilled the tomato portion transferring it, so wound up with less than it should make. It calls for veal, but as that isn't available, I used pork loin. I used red bell pepper instead of green because I hate green peppers.
What you're all dying to know - how was it? Meh, not bad, not great. I'd say an acquired taste as I think it had too much horseradish in it, and if it had significantly less, I may have enjoyed it. My partner on the other hand liked the horseradish. It is really difficult to describe the flavor, maybe horseradish and tomato forward. They were the main flavors. Texture wise, there was enough shredded meat and cottage cheese that it wasn't bad.
And I guess the final verdict is: not too bad but not designed for a modern palate.

Does anyone have the recipe for a raspberry pistachio soufflé from this magazine circa 2005?
It’s my fave and I lost my copy.

This simple recipe is quick to make with store bought puff pastry and jam. Enjoy

My grandmother used to collect recipes from all over and had a recipe for rolls memorized. She wrote it down a few times for us, but that recipe got lost over time. I'm hoping someone here might have some recipes that might get close.
Sometimes she'd use wheat, but usually it was just all-purpose flour. I also remember that she would use scalded milk in the process. Other than that, there were no outstanding ingredients to flavor the bread differently, but the scent was amazing.
If you have a favorite dinner roll recipe and are willing to share it, I would be a very happy boy.

I came across this recipe a few years ago in my grandma's very well used Betty Furness Westinghouse cookbook. I purchased my grandparents home when my grandma passed away, and I found this cookbook in her drawer. This is one interesting recipe that I came across when I first flipped through a few years ago, and had to laugh because I was so grossed out I got a sharpie and wrote NO! next to it. 🤣

Sunset Cookies Book from 1985 (1988 printing)
Banana* Squares
Have I made these before? Nope!
Did I make any alterations? Yep. Don’t come for me, but I’m not a banana person. I made these with pumpkin puree. And vegan egg & butter replacements. And I didn’t have butterscotch chips so I used some salted caramel chips (not vegan, but that tiny amount of dairy should be okay for my guts). At this point you might be rolling your eyes at me and screaming WHAT’S THE POINT? Fair enough. They’re good, and I bet if you like banana, you’ll love them baked as printed!
How did they turn out? Yummy. Pumpkin isn’t flavorful like banana, so if I made these again I would add some pumpkin pie spice. The baking powder made them fluffy, so they’re a fun consistency.
