Happy Halloween! I was super pleased with the way these turned out. Very creepy over-sized and a bit disproportioned spiders on top of purple spiderweb pumpkin cupcakes! I love them. They looked so great all together on the platter when I brought them to school this morning. No picture of that unfortunately. This picture I [...]

I am a fan of plain cheesecake. Just the creamy filling and buttery crumbly graham cracker crust. That is all I need. No fruit, no chocolate, no caramel and absolutley NO fake strawberry goo. What is that stuff anyway? I do happen to like pumpkin cheesecake, so when I found this recipe I was [...] This challange, like the last, allowed quite a bit of creativity and freedom on the part of the bakers. I was excited to try this recipe for a few reasons. 1. I love pizza and any excuse to make my own. 2. I have never tried an overnight rise in the refridgerator [...] I have decided to dedicate this week to that great orange fruit we all know and love, member of the cucurbitaceae family…drumroll please…the PUMPKIN! I scoured through my cookbooks and found quite a few pumpkin bread and pumpkin cake recipes, and of course pumpkin pie recipes. I really wanted to find a good pumpkin cookie [...] This is one of those things that impresses people, but in actuality is very easy. No matter how you spell it, Phyllo, filo, fillo dough is a fun thing to bake with. It is wonderfully crispy and light. It can be used in sweet and savory dishes and you can buy it frozen, so [...] This recipe is from my Rebecca Rather cookbook…yet again. I think that I might end up cooking my way through this book eventually! This cake was chocolatey and moist with just a hint of cinnamon. Rather suggests you use high quality cocoa (such as Scharfen Berger) but I had to settle for Hershey’s. I would [...] I live in Waco. There are not a whole lot of specialty food stores here. Our HEB has a pretty good bulk food section, and they do have some gourmet items from time to time. I usually find myself becoming a kid in a candy store when I go to Central Market or Whole Foods [...] The answer is both “Yes!” and “Uh, not really.” The ingredients and process is ridiculously easy and simple. A monkey could make this. A stupid monkey could make this. Cake mix, a can of crushed pineapple, a can of cherry pie filling and a stick of butter. Dump it all in a [...] I was underwhelmed with these cookies. Don’t get me wrong, they tasted like a fine peanut butter cookie. However, I really wanted something amazing to happen in my mouth as a result of the chunks of brownie I mixed in, but no. No explosions of flavor. Just mediocrity. Ok, I might be being a [...] I’ll be the first to admit it. This does not look like something you’d want to eat. Kind of like chewed up food? Anyway, looks can be deceiving…this was actually very good! Ben liked it! There are a few things I would change when I make this again. Use one lite and one fat [...] |
