The beloved cooking resource has been helping home cooks for over a hundred years and they have been paying close attention to what recipes people have been searching for on their site. After making their list (and probably checking it twice), they are sharing the most searched for recipes from each state. The results show a combination of home chefs looking up recipes for old favorites, like the No-Bake Lemon Icebox Pie that topped the charts in Arkansas and the Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce that was the most-searched recipe in Louisiana. Home cooks also seem interested in finding something new like Nevada’s Chocoflan (* searches Chocoflan online *). There are also some interesting interstate rivalries that pop up in the results like Delaware’s Strawberry Pretzel Salad versus Utah’s Raspberry Pretzel Salad.
