These are Strawberry Shortbread Bars, but in my head I’ve always called them Funeral Bars. For the very simple reason that I had them for the first time at a funeral! And it stuck in my head, so I’ve call them that in my head every time I’ve made these. Which has been a lot…
Bomb Pop Cake
Bomb Pops are the ultimate nostalgia treat, and I’ve been glad to see them start getting their due in recent years. There’s all sorts of bomb-pop flavored energy drinks and sparkling waters and seltzers. And while those may be a bit gimmicky, I won’t complain to see the flavor offered! There’s something about those flavors…
Lemon Olive Oil Gelato
I spent last week in Germany, and like any good trip to Europe includes, I had a few gelatos. There’s something about gelato that is just superior… it’s hard to put a finger on whether it’s just being in vacation mode, or whether it’s hugely different. I decided while I was there that I needed…
Chocolate Orange Shortbread
As I work on my State Fair Baking plan, I’ll need to decide which categories are worth entering. I think I can make a great shortbread, but… can’t a lot of people? How do you stand out in a category where the the basic form of the recipe has three ingredients? It’s butter, flour, and…
Orange Chocolate Scones
My strategy for coming up with State Fair baking ideas was to pour over the list of options and pick categories that I think won’t be too overrun, and that I know how to bake for. Then I made a list of flavor combinations that I like. And now… it’s just about pairing those ideas…
Corn Blueberry Cookies
I feel like a presidential candidate or something, because I am now “announcing my intention” to enter into the State Fair baking competition this year. I’ve been pouring over the rules and trying to make sense of all the categories, and now I’m trying to come up with what I want to enter. I’ve got…
Doan’s Bakery Coconut Cake
Every December for the past few years, I feel like I hear a lot about the “Tom Cruise Cake.” It’s a cake that Tom Cruise sends to probably 100 of his closest celebrity friends every holiday season. It’s apparently a big honor to be on the Cake List. I’ve even started hearing about it throughout…
Half-Batch Blueberry Coffee Cake
One thing about my Dad is that if there is a coffee cake offered at a breakfast establishment, we are going to be ordering a slice for the table. And one thing about me is that I will not complain! I think coffee cake is somewhat underrated. Or maybe it’s just me who forgets about…
