Recipes using whole milk

A basic ice-cream recipe that is so delicious on its own, but can be modified to make literally all kinds of flavors and ice-cream ideas!
Mango Milk Shake
Indian mango milkshake (mango lassi-style) blended with canned mango pulp, whole milk, sugar, and ice. Thick, creamy, and tropical in 5 minutes flat.
Heavenly Butter Pecan Ice Cream
Homemade butter pecan ice cream: a rich browned-butter and brown-sugar custard churned silky-smooth and folded with toasted pecans. The browned butter gives it a deep, nutty butterscotch flavor no store version matches.

This recipe is over 100 years old. I add a twist to the recipe (and a little sweetness) by adding some golden raisins, like my favorite restaurant in Provincetown, Mass., does.
Toll House Bundt Cake
Toll House bundt cake: a brown sugar pound cake studded with semi-sweet chocolate chips, baked over a buttery nut topping that becomes the cake's crown when inverted. Old-school showstopper.

I have seen numerous recipes on the net that say they are clones but this one is the best with the closest taste to the original Reb Lobster version.

My wife has an excellent recipe for White Bread brought to this country from her grandmother who was originally from Poland. Makes 5 loaves. Typically, this style of bread would be served with baked ham. However it can go with almost anything. Stale leftovers can make excellent French toast.

Christmas Morning Wife Saver
Perfect make ahead breakfast casserole for Christmas morning. Make it ahead the day before and pop in the oven in the morning for a great breakfast that can feed a crowd.

Microwave omelet filled with creamy cheddar sauce, crisp bacon, and chopped apples. Cooked in a pie plate for easy folding, then topped with bubbly cheese sauce and bacon bits.
Cream Chicken Soup
Cream chicken soup with rivels and rice in a rich broth of whole milk, heavy cream, and chicken stock. An old-fashioned Pennsylvania Dutch-style comfort bowl.

Lemon-Strawberry Pie
Lemon custard pie with a press-in oil crust, topped with fresh sliced strawberries glazed in melted jam. A make-ahead dessert with a light, soufflé-like lemon filling.
