Baked Sunday Mornings: Flourless Chocolate Cake
Normally I would advocate for throwing flour into my cake batter (kind of a no-brainer, right?), but in the right ratios, the magical combination of chocolate, eggs, sugar, and butter can magically transform into a rich, decadent, and elegant dessert without flour. It’s perfect that this was our Baked Sunday Mornings recipe this week because it’s also the […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: S’more Nut Bars
I take my s’mores very seriously. Today it became apparent that maybe I need to take it down a notch, seeing as how I almost set a fire in my living room… yeahhh. See, we all know that “s’mores” is a very specific combination of ingredients: graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallow. But not just any […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Almond Granita
Please pardon this interruption of my regularly scheduled hamantashen posting. I’m pausing to bring you… a little sliver of Italian summer. Among our very last recipes for Baked Sunday Mornings is Almond Granita from BAKED: New Frontiers in Baking, which is not a recipe I would have made on my own. As I’ve said countless times, […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Root Beer Bundt Cake
OK, I’m going to tell you something, and you’re either not going to believe me, or you’re going to think I’m a freaking weirdo: I’ve never had root beer before. Along with late entry into peanut butter and jelly, burgers, and bacon, chuck it up to an immigrant childhood, where I just didn’t have a […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Lemon-Almond Meringue Tarts
Finally– the cover shot. We are so close to the end of baking through BAKED: New Frontiers in Baking, and therefore the end of Baked Sunday Mornings. (So many tears!!) And finally we are making the iconic cover recipe: Lemon-Almond Meringue Tarts! I’ve never made this recipe, as I have a profound disdain for any almond […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Coconut Snowball Cupcakes
Alllll the coconut. Give it to me. Is it possible to fall more in love with coconut over time? Because did I mention… I want all the coconut things. I’m not really sure where this desire came from (as I’ve mentioned before, I grew up thinking I didn’t like it– pffff), but I’m so glad […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Classic Diner-Style Chocolate Pie
Sometimes all you need is a slice of pie. I’m not even that much of a pie person. But sometimes it hits the spot like no other dessert. And sometimes maybe you even have it for dinner. I’m not saying I had pie for dinner this week, except that maybe I did, and I’m not […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Peanut Butter Crispy Bars
I feel like I keep saying this… How have I not made these before?? I’ve been participating in Baked Sunday Mornings for over 7 years and made the large majority of BAKED’s recipes from their four cookbooks– it’s hard to believe we’re in our last 6 months of baking through BAKED: New Frontiers in Baking… and […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Red Hot Velvet Cake with Cinnamon Buttercream
I know. Red velvet is so over. Like, WAY over. But hear me out when I tell you that we don’t have to live this way. We can have red velvet in our lives *and* reserve the right to abstain from food trends du jour, I promise. See, red velvet started as a classic Southern […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Marble Bundt Cake
Who else holds their breath every single time they unmold a Bundt cake? It doesn’t matter how many Bundts I make, how many years I’ve been baking, or which recipe I’m using; there’s always a sliver of terror in my chest when I flip over the pan, only to be relieved by the gentle thud of […]
