Funfetti Coconut Macaroons
Did anyone else feel like Passover snuck up on them this year? Maybe because it’s on the early side this year, it just didn’t dawn on me, say, last week to stock up on matzah, and there I was yesterday, mad-scrambling to multiple supermarkets in desperate search of a few boxes. At one Safeway, the […]
Blonde Chocolate Coconut Macaroons
Don’t let the Mainschewitz Passover Industrial Complex ruin your Passover. Homemade coconut macaroons can be yours so quickly and easily that you’ll never look back. I was never enamored by the macaroons-in-a-can, but they were just always… there. So I snacked on them because they existed without what I’d call “enthusiasm”, and I had even […]
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: 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, […]
Chocolate Coconut Macaroon Cake
If you know anything about Passover desserts, you know that they can be a challenge and we often have to compromise to uphold the rules of being Kosher For Passover. So imagine my delight when I came across an amazing (and beautiful) dessert last year from Bon Appétit that yielded a flourless chocolate cake so decadent and […]
Coconut Remix: Salted Sesame Caramel Macaroons
As I said last week, I wasn’t planning to bake for Passover this year because I wasn’t going to or hosting a Seder. But then Robicelli’s Tiramatzu came into my life, so I had to try a homemade version. So that was it, right? Well… There I was, minding my own business, when the new issue of […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Cinnamon Chocolate Soufflés
It’s April 13th. Which means I just got married last weekend! Which means I’m in a post-wedding blissful stupor. It also means that I have wedding cake in my fridge AND freezer. (Everything in my life is always somehow tied to pastries. 😉 ) I also baked a small dessert bar with French Macarons and cookies, […]
Baked Sunday Mornings: Good Morning Sunshine Bars
People, if you don’t already know, it’s a good thing you’re reading this: CEREAL IS NOT JUST FOR BREAKFAST. You’re welcome. The pinnacle of cereal-based delights, Rice Krispie Treats, was certainly the first such phenomenon of this nature that I’d ever had as a child, and it’s always held a special place in my heart. […]
