Sauteed Peaches
It’s summertime, and fortunately stone fruit is in season, because I saw an episode of Chopped where someone made sauteed peaches with brown sugar and butter, and I had to immediately make it myself! Since I was going to the store anyway, I grabbed some vanilla bean-flavored coconut milk ice cream. (I really do try […]
4th of July Lemonade Pie
I’ll make this quick since I meant to post it in plenty of time for you to make it today before any barbecues! This pie needs 8 hours to set in the freezer (preferably overnight, but I’m sure you could do 6 in a pinch!), so even if you can’t make it today, you can […]
Microwave Mug Cake
I found a recipe for mug cake like this recipe years ago, and threatened to make it, but never made good. One night when I was fiending for something dessert-y, and coincidentally trolling Pinterest, I found this Salted Caramel version on Babble and thought it’d be a brilliant quick fix. (You know, once I modified […]
Popcorn Cake
So, I’m not sure if any of you were watching TV yesterday, but the New York Giants won the Super Bowl! For those of you who don’t know me all that well, I am a huge Giants fan, so for my friends and I, this was more than a get-together to watch commercials. Some might […]
Chocolate Cream Tartlets
These little no-bake tartlets are really easy to put together, and require minimal prep work. What’s more simple than buying pre-baked tartlet shells and adding some pudding powder mixed with milk into whipped cream? Amiright? This idea for a dessert was inspired partially by my anticipated lack of time to make it (it was supposed […]
White Chocolate Cheesecake with Peppermint Ganache
Do you know what I just realized? Two years ago, I made my first pound cake, and this blog had just started days before. It is amazing how far I’ve come since then… I’ve hit my 100th post (and celebrated on the 101st), and my confidence in my own baking ability has improved by leaps and […]
Watermelon Granita
Do you know what one of the greatest things is about summer? If you answered watermelon, you are correct! (If you said the beach, ice cream, mojitos, or the smell of sunblock, you would also be correct in other circumstances.) I love watermelon, and I find it ridiculous to pay twice as much for a […]
Chocolate Puddin’ Pie
I’m really all about not baking lately. You read that correctly. I’m looking for any excuse not to turn on the oven because even the thought of it makes me hot. When I do turn on my oven, to roast veggies or make shrinky dinks, I make sure it’s late at night, at an hour […]
Easy as [Cool Whip] Pie!
Are you going to a barbecue or potluck this summer? Do you live someplace like Los Angeles where it’s too hot to even think about turning on your oven? Well Cool Whip Pie is definitely a recipe to keep on hand – you’ll memorize it after making it once – because it’s summery, light, and […]
Happy Easter, Peeps!
My friend Ashleigh, you may remember her from French Macaron Day, asked me if I wanted to make Peeps this week. Duh, WINNING. How much fun would it be to make our own Peeps the day before Easter? (Lots!) And it was also a great excuse to test out my new candy thermometer! So it […]
