This challenge sure snuck up on me…like many other Daring Bakers challenges of the past. Thankfully I remembered enough in advance to get this dessert completed in time! We had an option this month to complete one or both of these desserts; ice cream petit fours and baked Alaska. One day I will try baked [...]

 Print This PostMartha Stewart offers a “Cookie of the Day” email that I have been getting for over a year now. I have made a few of these cookies, but rarely do the cookies just scream out and beg for me to make them. These brown butter blondies, however, were something I just couldn’t resist. Browned butter is [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostAnother recipe from America’s Best Lost Recipes that I received for my birthday and where I got the recipe for the peach puzzle. The only unexpected thing about this pound cake is the baking process. The pan goes into a cold, as in DO NOT PREHEAT, oven. It then cooks for an hour and a half. [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostA good friend of mine makes jam every year and brings me a few jars when we see each other. It is so much better than store bought! The last time she was in Amarillo, she brought me 2 jars of blueberry jam. I used one of those jars in these cookies. These cookies are delicate, [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostMy sister Sarah is visiting us for a few days in Amarillo. She got me this cookbook, America’s Best Lost Recipes, for my birthday. One of the recipes that caught her eye when she looked through it was this peach puzzle. We had no choice but to try it out when she was here. It’s basically like [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostSo many components to this dessert! Two ice creams, hot fudge sauce, chocolate cake, whipped cream…and then there’s the assembly process. Whew! When I told Ben all the things I had to do, he said “Can you imagine having to do this when you were still teaching?” Yes, I can imagine that. I would have [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThese sweet little pastry packages are lovely. Pre-made puff pastry makes this a dessert that requires very little hard labor in the kitchen. Assembling these pastries is not exactly a breeze, but they are worth it. I found this recipe hidden in Fine Cooking from August of 2010. It is the “Letter from the Editor” section [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostWhen my mom and I set out to make American dessert for a group of young adults (ranging from 19-30) from Ireland, Scotland, Korea, and the UK I had no intention of blogging about these recipes. This will explain why the only pictures of the night I have are these of the practically devoured leftover [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThe June 2010 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Dawn of Doable and Delicious. Dawn challenged the Daring Bakers’ to make Chocolate Pavlovas and Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse. The challenge recipe is based on a recipe from the book Chocolate Epiphany by Francois Payard. Originally, this recipe didn’t sound summery enough to me. Chocolate upon chocolate just [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostBlueberries were on sale at my grocery store for $0.99 a pint! I bought 4 pints. While I am more than happy to eat them plain as a snack or as a garnish for my yogurt, I wanted to do something a little more exciting with these sweet little berries. I chose this luscious blueberry [...] |
