Mexican Hot Chocolate Rice Crispy Hearts
Does everyone else love rice crispy treats like I do, or do I have some sort of abnormal obsession? I love baking – cakes, cookies, tarts, all the yummy things. But I can’t think of anything else that brings more joy to both adults and kids as rice crispy treats, IMHO. So I wanted to […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Exceedingly Chocolaty Crinkles
Baked Sunday Mornings is celebrating Christmas in July… and I like it. We’re embarking on our last 5 recipes from Baked Occasions, which is really hard to believe! Most of our remaining recipes are holiday cookies, and Exceedingly Chocolaty Crinkles are among my favorites, as this was one of the recipes that I tested when our blogger group did […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Milk Chocolate Malted Brownies with Chocolate Ganache
Brownies twice in a row for Baked Sunday Mornings— I can definitely embrace this lifestyle. Two weeks ago, we made Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake Chocolate Brownies, which I unexpectedly struggled with a bit. I felt like my brownie skillz were shaky all of a sudden, and if there’s one thing I’ve felt pretty comfortable with, it’s BAKED […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Mini Chocolate Brownie Cupcakes
I live by the school year calendar. I lived by the school year calendar since preschool, almost continuously except for one semester after finishing college while working in the tech consulting world (*shudder*) and not taking any classes. Aside from that brief period, I have always been in school in some capacity, whether full-time or […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Frozen Swiss Chocolate Pie
Summer weekends are for eating frozen things, preferably involving chocolate. And if those frozen chocolate things happen to be slathered in fudge and whipped cream, ALL THE BETTER. Our last recipe for Baked Sunday Mornings was in honor of National Dog Day; this week we are celebrating Grandparents’ Day with Frozen Swiss Chocolate Pie from […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Chocolate Espresso Tapioca Pudding with Kahlúa Whipped Cream
Don’t you love it when things just work out? I was apprehensive about this week’s Baked Sunday Mornings recipe, Chocolate Espresso Tapioca Pudding with Kahlúa Whipped Cream from Baked Occasions, because my puddings have historically been hit-and-miss. (This is our Black Friday recipe, a little ahead of the “holiday”.) I have never made tapioca pudding from scratch, but […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Individual Baked Alaskas with Vanilla & Coffee Ice Cream
I’ve made a lot of desserts in my life. I mean, A LOT. There have been countless batches of cupcakes, cookies, brownies, layer cakes, and all manner of other treats in and out of the oven– some great, some mediocre, and yes, some were disastrous! At this point, it’s not that often that I’m tasked […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Chocolate Rice Crispy “Cake” with Homemade Marshmallow “Icing”
I’ve talked before on this blog about my comical gaps in 80’s American snacking and cuisine, due to my parents moving our family from Israel to California when I was 4 years old. Things like PB&J, Twinkies, and Cheez-Wiz (*shudder*) were not part of my lunchbox experience growing up. One thing, however, that quickly made its way […]
Decadence, Squared: The Peanut Butter Confections Formerly Known as Nutter Butters by Dana Cree
I’ve been waiting all summer for this. I try to post a mixture of Baked Sunday Mornings recipes, travel blogs, and non-BSM recipes, but it was a particularly busy summer with travel and moving, so nothing but BSM got done… Contrary to popular belief, I do actually bake stuff out of books other than the BAKED quartet, […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Black Cocoa Bundt Cake with Butter Whiskey Glaze
While I don’t have a lot of warm, fuzzy Dad memories, I need absolutely zero excuses to make an ultra-chocolaty cake, particularly one with black cocoa in it. It’s a day that ends in “-day”? Sounds like a GREAT reason to make cake! I got out of bed today? Let me just grab the flour. This week for Baked […]
