The broken oven series: Recipe #1. We aren't making the broken oven saga into a series. I just like to start these posts with some drama. New oven is set to arrive Tuesday (insert little emoji confetti horn thing). Nothing says summer like berries and graham crackers. Except maybe watermelon.
Okay, I know this red velvet cheesecake is totally overboard, a caloric craziness and a lot of time in the making, but it tastes OH SO GOOD!!!
Rich, fudgy brownies are spread with lightly minted marshmallow creme, then sprinkled with crushed Thin Mints. What's that you say? Over the top? I can't hear you. Sometimes we get together with Eric's out-of-state siblings (on a Google hangout) and play board games.
Happy Easter!!! Today is another edition of #SundaySupper. Since today is not only Easter it's also Lemons and Oranges Day! So to celebrate Mother's Nature beautiful citrus fruit, we had to make a dish with what else lemons or oranges. Today's dish is a fabulous snack cake made with Meyer Lemons that my friend Marty gave me.
Mascarpone cream/mousse is very delicious when combined with the complex flavor of speculoos (speculaas). For desserts which nod to Tiramisu, I make ladyfingers containing speculoos spices. Not necessarily a true authentic way of making tiramisu, but delicious nonetheless. On speculoos / speculaas, recently several books have published recipes for these cookies containing nothing more than cinnamon as the only spice.
A light summer cake with a citrus touch, this iced peach pie cake combines an easy one-bowl cake with a can of peach pie filling. 5 minutes of prep time, no mixer needed! Do you love personality quizzes? I used to take every possible quiz back in highschool.
I used to pay money at various local ice cream parlors to get an ice cream cake. Now? I can whip one together in no time at all. And, depending on the birthday child's favorite ice cream, you can change up the flavor no problem.
Do you like cranberries? I think they're one of those love 'em or hate 'em foods. For me, I can't have a holiday meal without my precious cranberry sauce. There's just something about the sweetness mixed with the tart, that makes each bite of turkey, stuffing, and whatever else you have piled on your plate, taste infinitely better.
Too hot to turn on the oven? Try making this No Bake Peanut Butter version of a Chocolate Eclair Cake! Sometimes, you, my readers have the best ideas! Last month I shared a Strawberry Eclair Cake recipe. Which is basically a twist on the traditional Eclair Cake .
