It's very nearly summer. It's hot. Ice cream recipes are everywhere. But for every rich creamy version out there, I've been seeing ones for 1 ingredient banana ice cream, 2 ingredient banana soft serve, etc. They're basically frozen bananas with or without a touch of vanilla, blitzed in the food processor until the texture is similar to soft ice cream.
Last summer, my friend Kim fromCravings of a Lunatic , posted a recipe for Black Forest Brownie Mini Trifles and I was instantly smitten. Even though, at the time, Valentine's Day was a long way off, I immediately thought these trifles would be the perfect dessert.
The bundt bakers are back today! A year ago, when I first joined the group and told Brian I was baking a bundt cake, he didn't seem too interested and informed me he prefers pie. But, oh, how times have changed and now bundt day is happily anticipated each month.
A simple, 8-ingredient ice cream (only 5 if you use store-bought pie crust!) that tastes just like coconut cream pie! An easy, no-bake, no-stove, no-churn, but totally delicious summer treat! I'm just going to say it: I don't really like pie.
This no bake cherry cheesecake recipe is ridiculously easy to make and a total crowd pleaser! I swear I think cheesecake might qualify as a food group. It's the perfect food after all. Creamy and light, full of delicious flavours ranging from fruit to chocolate. It's sheer perfection.
Ultra creamy homemade cheesecake swirled with sweet blueberry sauce. All on top of my favorite buttery graham cracker crust. Hello, gorgeous. If I had to choose a dessert to enjoy for the rest of my life (and there would be no savory food allowed at all in this dream), I would absolutely choose cheesecake.
I know I promised you a savory recipe last week. I accidentally lied. I say "accidentally" because I really did intend to give you my great-grandmother's pimento cheese recipe at the end of last week. But has anyone else noticed that life has the fun habit of not going quite according to plan most of the time?
Rasgulla ( ras means juice, gulla means round) is a simply amazing Indian dessert made with fresh homemade cottage cheese (chenna/paneer) kneaded and shaped into balls and cooked in sugar syrup. These sweet, syrupy and soft cheese balls are so simple to make, unbelievable that with only few basic ingredients you can make such a perfect dessert - you only need milk, sugar, lemon juice and water.
In the past 3 years, we've moved 3 times. I met and fell in love with my husband in California. We talked about moving closer to family on our first date. A little over a year later, we did. We moved outside Kansas City.
Sometimes you just don't want a big commitment. Saturday, I went on a 16 mile hike up the highest peak in Orange County. That was a big commitment; there was snow at the top of the mountain.. in Orange County... I was totally ok with that commitment.
