WDW recipes - DISboard

i'd seen this before and actually, i think you might've brought it to my attention once too, but i had always thought to myself..okay, maybe after our trip, because i don't wanna ruin any surprise dishes that i plan on having when we dine at any specific place, so now i'm thinking i might dive into some of the things that i *don't* already plan on having.

whatcha think i should try first?

Okay so to start with, I picked not only a restaurant in Narcoossee's that I've heard good things about that we're not going to but also something that you've been on a bit of kick with. So here ya go, here's my first choice for ya:

‘Ohana: Maui Scalloped Potatoes

1 pound Russet potatoes (washed and sliced)
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup cheddar cheese
2 tbsp parmesan cheese
1/4 cup thinly sliced sweet onions
1 tsp kosher salt

Pumpkin Cheesecake

Ingredients for Cheesecake:

16 oz. Cream Cheese
10 Oz. Canned Pumpkin
6 Oz. Sugar
4 Eggs
1/2 cup of Heavy Cream
1 Tsp. Cinnamon
1/2 Tsp. Ground Clove
1/2 Tsp. Nutmeg

Ingredients for Crust:

2 Cups Graham Cracker Crumbs
Melted Butter


Method of Preparation for Cheesecake:

With an electric mixer, mix the cream cheese and sugar until it is free of lumps. Add the pumpkin and spices. Mix until all the items are completely combined. Add the eggs slowly, mixing and scraping as you go. Last, mix in the heavy cream. Set aside.


Method of Preparation for Crust:

Mix together Graham Cracker crumbs and only enough butter to hold the crumbs together. Pack this crust in a half-inch layer on the bottom of a 10" greased cake pan. Pour the cheesecake batter in the mold and bake at 325° until a "testing" knife comes out clean from the center. Approximate baking time is one hour, depending on the oven.


Serves 6-8

Haha, waiting til you do yours and tell me how it goes before we do more.

haha oh alright, maybe i can get the ingredients when i go tomorrow to get the stuff for dinner on easter.

Plus I get to pick out one for you :lol:

the oriental salad was really good, babe! i ended up having half of the one i made leftover, there was a lot! haha.
the dressing is really yummy and different, it's sweet and kinda spicy with the red pepper flakes... *so* good with chicken by the way.

i'm thinking of making it into a kind of marinade or something to cook with chicken again, only making it into a sauce instead of dressing, ya know?.

but again with the salad, it was very nomnom and refreshing.

this is fun, whatcha think i should try next?

Following your route and going with a dessert.

I'll make the pumpkin cheesecake next pay period, remaking the scalloped potatoes again!

Don't have a recipe or anything for it, but I found this photo.

oh my gosh, those are going to be fan-friggin'-tastic. you know how you were asking me when i was going to send you more goodies? i'm thinkin' when i make these, i'm gonna make 2 batches and send you some so ya can taste them. sound good? =)

haha, awwee. that cake is the cutest thing ever!

Oohhh, sounds good to me.

Haha yeah, thought you would like that.

i'm gonna wait for the seasons to change and for things get cooler. when i make the brownies, i want to send you a batch so that you can see how they turned out. =)

also, this sounded really yummy to:

Berry Cobbler
Artist Point, Wilderness Lodge

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tbsp. salt *
2 1/2 tbsp. baking powder *
1 1/8 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
2 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups blueberries (or other seasonal berries)
8 Tbsp. brown sugar
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter *
whipped cream or ice cream for topping

*Note: I thought that the measurements for the salt and baking powder were a mistake. Somehow I think it should be "tsp." not "tbsp." I've checked several other sites with this recipe and I found that they all say the same thing. Personally, I would use only a 1/4 tsp. of salt and only 2 1/2 tsp. of baking powder. I made a correction on the "4 Tbsp. butter" too. It originally said 8 Tbsp. of butter, but the original recipe only gives directions for using 4 Tbsp. of the butter. It's the same on all the other sites, too.


-Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

-Combine the flour, salt, baking powder and granulated sugar. Cut the butter into small pieces and mix into the flour mixture. Add the eggs and mix until just combined. Add the heavy cream and mix just enough to incorporate (the batter will be lumpy).

-(This recipe was originally intended to be made in four six-inch cake pans that have been lined with parchment paper, but I have modified this to be used in an 8x8 parchment-lined or greased pan.) Place the dough in the pan and spread evenly along the bottom of the pan. Spread the blueberries on top of of the dough. Sprinkle with 8 Tbsp. brown sugar and dot with 4 Tbsp. butter (cut into small pieces).

-Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the cobblers are lightly browned. Let cool to room temp. and serve with whipped cream or ice cream.

i'd cancel out the whipped cream and do it southern-style with vanilla ice cream. the cobbler is all hot and bubbly and the ice cream starts melting and mmmm. -- my grandpa makes awesome cherry cobbler so i have a bit of experience.

and she's totally right about the measurements. that's far too much salt/baking powder. it would taste awful, haha.

Haha, you'll have to let me know how it tastes.

Figured this would fit in well here:
