My mother's lemon sponge pie. It's fantastic and I've never seen it at a restaurant. It's a Pennsylvania Dutch recipe from my great-grandmother, although my grandfather said my mom's lemon sponge was even better!

My mom at first. She would let me make mini pies in pyrex cups when she made full pies so I could make and eat my own.

I'm going to argue this one because it depends upon the entire course. I don't like the heavier sauces like alfredos and the low fat ones are just nasty. I'll go with a heavily garlic pesto sauce fresh from the food processor served directly at that moment when it pulses from solid to liquid.

I love to make my own sauce from home grown tomatoes. It takes awhile, but it's worth it.
