As I’ve said before, there is an art to buying bananas to make sure you don’t have too many that go brown. There is also an art to buying food in the week leading up to a vacation, so you don’t have a bunch of food go bad. I sort of bungled it before my…
America Truffles (with Firecracker Oreos)
I’m scheduling this to post while I’m overseas on a multi-country international vacation. I plan to be enjoying myself fully. But at the end of a long trip… there’s also nothing like coming home! And there’s no better way to feel American than to go to a foreign country. So scheduling this post for my…
Strawberry Shortcake Cookies
When I was at Cub a few weeks ago, I was perusing their extensive extract collection. As one does. I found some strawberry extract, and I was immediately intrigued. Ordinarily, I would say that a fruit extract is a terrible idea, especially for something like strawberry. I think orange and lemon extracts are horrific. But…
Creamy Chocolate Coffee Passion Fruit Bars
I don’t typically retool recipes so quickly, as I’ve got other things on my baking agenda, but the idea for these bars really stuck in my head. I want to submit them for the State Fair, and so I want to get the recipe ready and perfect before I lock them in. So even though…
Lemon Poppyseed Muffins
I’ve said it many times before, but one thing about me is that I am not going to let any ingredient or food go to waste. So when I had a scant 1/2 cup of ricotta left in the fridge, I knew I had to do something with it. And you know what that no-waste…
White Chocolate Berry Beer Bread
I’m in my Beer Bread Era, as the kids’ say. I’m experimenting with different kinds of beer in preparation for the State Fair, and this time, I used a triple berry sour. Naturally, I mixed in dried blueberries and white chocolate (sort of like those old Milk Bar cookies). White Chocolate Berry Beer Bread is…
Coffee Chocolate Passion Fruit Bars
A few years ago, I don’t even remember when, I tried Milk Bar’s Coffee Chocolate Passion Fruit layer cake. My mind was blown. I’m fairly certain I tried it before working for them, so it would have had to have been during an NYC visit, before they limited their cake selections so drastically. So it…
Lemon Coconut Old Fashioned Donuts
I made these Old Fashioned Old Fashioneds about 4 years ago now, as one of my first “return to the blog” posts. In many ways, it feels like far longer ago than just 4 years. But regardless, I still think about those donuts frequently. They were so good. And I remember being pleasantly surprised by…
