Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.


2 cups raisins
1 cup water
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 package double-crust pie pastry (9-inch size)
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Combine the raisins and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and let cook for 10 minutes.
Combine the corn syrup, cornstarch, and salt in a bowl. Mix well. Slowly pour the mixture into the raisin mixture and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes or until everything is syrupy.
Remove the pan from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
While the raisin filling is cooling, prepare a pie pan with one of the pastry crusts. Pour the cooled filling into the crust. Arrange the top rust over the filling (or cut it into strips for a lattice top).
Place the pie in the oven on one of the lower racks and bake at 425 degrees F for 20 minutes or until the top crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie pan to a cooling rack and let cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
