Cherry pie is good, any cherry pie!  And this one, blessed by a layer of chocolate ganache under the flavorful cherries and topped by a crust designed to look like a sunflower, is exceptional.  One fan said, 'This recipe is a national treasure!'   It won a blue ribbon at the New Mexico State Fair.

For those of us who like coconut, this is a winner!  In fact, a variation of this -- a meringue version rather than cream-topped -- won "Best of Show" at the NM State Fair Pie Contest.  It's an extravagent dessert, one that makes people happy.  (Doesn't all pie make people happy?)

I love the tartness of the fruit with the flaky pastry. And since you can get frozen cherries and raspberries, you can make it anytime!

Rich and elegant, it is perfect for company...or just because you're in the mood!

There’s something dreamy about ice cream bars that combine orange sherbet and vanilla ice cream.  Remember those?  This pie is reminiscent of those, but better.  First, there’s a whole lot more of it, enough to share!  Then, it swirls 2 favorite flavors:  fresh orange and vanilla cream.   Finally, you can do either a winter version (cold but not frozen) or summer version (icy).  Either will win you points with friends and family.  It features Cuties® brand clementine oranges, which are extra flavorful and provide an inviting soft color.

Easy!   There's something about the crunch and flavor of the pecans that I just love. 

It's easy and it's chocolate!  Made with ingredients at hand, you can have pie for dessert any time.  See 'Baker's Notes' below for a gluten-free version.

"Custardy coconut, crunchy almonds, rich chocolate...all settled in a delicate crust.  It's dreamy and rich.  If you like Almond Joys, you'll love this."

Winner of the 'Merry Month of May' pie contest!  This recipe was created to use the Costa Rican sour oranges or 'mandarinas.'. They are very sour and are used in place of lemons.

It's sweet, tart and gorgeous.
