I need to make an apple pie soon, I know, but I needed to make a masterpiece with the puff pastry burning a hole in our freezer more than anything. Apple strudel is like the cooler cousin of apple pie. Apple strudel has international experience and offers the life-gratifying benefits of the plain Jane pie […]

Ugh. Can I begin by telling you how expensive it is to screw up my Apple Cinnamon Strudel with Cinnamon Whipped Cream recipe? Dufour puff pastry = $12 (and worth every penny, when properly baked). I should have just bought the box, brought it home, and thrown it down the garbage chute. (Well, I guess I should […]

Trust me on this one. I know you weren’t worried about the white cheddar part, and certainly not the bacon part, but you did pause at the mayo part, didn’t you? Don’t get set in your ways, crusty old baker… remember how good the Chocolate Sour Cream Cake with Chocolate and Sour Cream Glaze was? And […]

Don’t think these bars aren’t fantastically wonderful just because the picture looks sort of unappetizing. (I haven’t figured out how to take a decent picture yet in the blinding light of our new[ish] kitchen, so all my photos as of late look, well, on the verge of gross. And let’s be honest, bakers. It doesn’t […]

I seem to have a real problem with coconut. (I’m confident with this statement because I’m still recovering from the memory of the MacaRUIN Cookie, which I’m bringing up here just because I’m still really impressed with myself for coming up with such a cool name for such an uncool situation.) This disaster was really […]

…according to The Husband- because it’s our ten year anniversary today (it’s okay, I know it might have slipped your mind. You can overnight us something silver, like a dessert platter; it doesn’t have to arrive today, per se.) Well, this is the list of what I think are his Top 10 ‘More Sweets, Please’ desserts, […]

I’m so excited by these cupcakes. And I think you are, too, judging by how your pulse quickened a bit after reading the title of this post. Look at the picture. See that gooey Rolo tucked into the best chocolate cake batter ever? See it in all its tempting glory? Yes, I know. It’s almost […]

Oh yes. I know you’re usually all about the Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie, and normally I wouldn’t blame you. (Chocolate does trump pretty much anything, as a general rule of baking thumb. Chocolate also trumps a lot of people, too, but let’s not get into that right now.) But you know there’s a time and […]

Don’t get all “sour cream?” on me, with that look on your face. You know that a baked potato would be nothing but for the sour cream (and the cheese and the bacon and the chives, and the butter, too, but you grasp my point), so why question it in a cake? I wondered about […]

Tart but sweet. Smooth but crunchy. Limey but nutty. (Okay, I’ll quit it with the this but that routine.) All you need to know is this: make these. Yeah, I could have just gone the Classic Key Lime Pie route, which is always a fantastic “more, please!” way to go when you feel like juicing key […]

I know the name of this post is gross, but it pales by comparison to the grossiosity of the disaster that ensued in the midst of making my Key Lime Coconut Bars with Lime Glaze, a most excellent dessert, if I do say so myself. This disaster deserves the name of a disease. A disease worse […]
