I know this is a real shot-in-the-dark, but I lost a recipe from the late 1980's or 1990's that was printed on the back of a box of Jumbo shells pasta. I know it contained chicken, frozen spinach, and had a cheese based sauce (not tomato based). Would anyone happen to know this recipe? I have searched the internet and cannot find it. Thanks!

Grew up a few blocks from Marx Bakery on Grand Avenue in Baldwin NY in the 60’s. The Marx family lived blocks from their bakery.I don’t know when they retired and closed. So many awesome products. They made the best creamy chocolate frosting ever for their cupcakes and homemade layer cake (yellow cake). Does anyone know how to make it? Does anyone know the family and if so can they share the recipe?
thank you on behalf of my family and the thousands of fans out there

I can't find the post r/t someone's grandfather wanting a recipe for seafood with cream base. Had this tonight. Was a bechamel cream base, seafood mix (this was crab, shrimp and portobello), then cheese; broil and serve. I chose linguini alfredo as the side, because obviously I needed more butter, cream, and cheese. So yummers! (The Dock Enon, OH) They also have a lovely 30's/40's style house salad with peas, green onion, and bacon.

In search of a recipe from Gourmet Magazine from the late 70’s or 80’s for lamb riblets. Included garlic, Dijon mustard, rosemary and bread crumbs at the end. Ring any bells? Thanks!

Looking for a recipe for a plain yellow cake, no icing, but melted butter brushed over the top of the finished cake. Sounds simple, but I suspect there’s more to it than just melted butter.
Not out of the question that cake mix, pudding mix, etc. were involved.
Would have been baked from about 1980 to 2000, but recipe might be as old as the 1930s or 1940.
Origin would be rural central Illinois or Indiana.
Thanks much ?

My grandmother from Pennsylvania used to send these to us kids. They looked like round waffles (she made them in a waffle maker) but were sweeter and not very browned. They were not super sweet like a cookie but definitely sweeter than a traditional waffle. I seem to remember possibly a very subtle orange flavor to them. They were eaten plain without syrup or butter or jam.
For a long time my mom thought they were galettes, but in researching they don’t appear at all similar (the galettes I’ve seen are an open face type of small pie, savory or sweet, crust folded over the edges).

I feel like every time I ask this question I get widely different answers, so far, babishes (binging with babish) recipe is the one I just backloged as the closest and best tasting one I’ve tried but I’m curious what others there are.
