What is something simple that your mom made for you as a kid, that you still love today? My mother would take hot dogs, slit them add cheese in the middle, and wrap in bacon and put under the broiler until cheese melted. How about you?

Wow - my mom made those as well!

Fluffernutters were perhaps my favorite as a kid, and Mom made them for me until I was old enough to make them for myself, at which point I grew tired of them. :rolleyes:
 
Some sort of a graham wafer cake..
Wafers on the bottom of a baking sheet, chocolate pudding (not instant) on top of the wafers.. In the fridge to set.. Wafers on top of the chocolate pudding and then vanilla pudding (not instant) on top.. In the fridge to set..
Iced with a chocolate icing and then back in the fridge to set..

Bottom line is ..................... something to die for !!!!!
 
My mother made homemade potato pancakes, and she would serve them with cottage cheese mixed with sour cream. Haven't had potato pancakes as good as hers since I was a kid.
 
rk, Thanks for the spell correction. I learned from a my German grandmother. I am not sure how she explained it to me , she spoke only German, and I was maybe 8. I had the crock until we were robbed a few years ago. People steal anything. :cart:
 
My mother made a very tasty shortbread. I make it too for high days and holiday and it goes down very well indeed.:)
 
What is tripe?

My mother would often make a coconut pie, all from scratch. I love coconut, but no way would I be able to make a crust from scratch. Heck, I never learned how to make biscuits from scratch, like my mother. I loved her buttermilk biscuits with milk gravy for breakfast. I finally figured out how to make the gravy, but make drop biscuits from a mix.:)
 
It's the lining of the cows stomach, it is creamy white and rough, if not cooked properly it is very rubbery, that's how my Mother cooked it, but an Italian girl i know has a great recipe for it if anyone is interested and it isn't rubbery the way she cooks it

My sister-in-law used to cook it for my mother-in-law when she was very ill.

It is dreadful stuff, and the smell.....

That sounds good RR;) My mom used to make what we called "shredded wheat" in the oven. Just cut open a "bisquit", the big shredded wheats that came 3 to a pack I think it was, and put butter on it, and put in the oven for a few, yum!! Oh, and she used to do that sorta thing with puffed wheat too! I'd forgotten that! Thanks for the memories RR:) Denise
 
Grilled cheese sandwich. Wish I had one now. Or, I would take one of her peanut butter, jelly and banana sandwiches. And a glass of milk.
