The one request I get most from my husband of what he wants me to make is pie. It is always “where’s the pie, where’s the pie”? So for his birthday, which was a few weeks ago, I had to make him a pie. No, I wanted to make him a pie, because I love… Continue reading Flaky Peach Pie Recipe

Super Lemon Lemon Tart
Being a lemon dessert lover, this was an awesome pick in my opinion. In fact, I had already made this tart and posted about it here. I really loved the filling the first time, so I was excited to make it again. This time I wanted to try to make it into lemon bars instead… Continue reading Super Lemon Lemon Tart
Trying out Tiramisu Cake
So, Tiramisu Cake. Really, I could take or leave Tiramisu for the most part. I think by now most people know that Tiramisu means “pick me up” in Italian because it is often eaten in Italy as an afternoon snack that provides a nice jolt of caffeine from the espresso drenched ladyfingers. If you didn’t… Continue reading Trying out Tiramisu Cake
Flourless Strawberry Chocolate Cake
Hubby was the one who suggested the flourless chocolate cake and volunteered us to make it. So, the night before our Seder, 11PM rolls around and there is no flourless chocolate cake. There is only me watching TV and husband drinking scotch and playing online poker. Guess who ended up making this cake all by… Continue reading Flourless Strawberry Chocolate Cake

There are tons of brownie recipes out there, and I wanted to try something new that I had never made. I found… Continue reading Truffle Chocolate Brownies

After our dinner in Little Italy at Pellegrino’s, we did a bit of walking around/digesting. Our plan was to go to Ferrara’s for dessert and… Continue reading Ferrara Bakery in NYC
Chocolate Bread Pudding Recipe
I will start out by saying that I am not a bread pudding lover in general, and neither is my husband. However, I have been wanting to make this recipe for a few months now, ever since we went out to dinner and a friend ordered some sort of chocolate butter bread pudding for dessert.… Continue reading Chocolate Bread Pudding Recipe
Chocolate Chip Breakfast Cookies Recipe
I baked these cookies this past weekend with my step kid. This child is a chocolate fiend and he would live on candy if we allowed it. He originally wanted to bake a cake but we did not have much time. So I went in search of a quick chocolate chip cookie recipe. These cookies… Continue reading Chocolate Chip Breakfast Cookies Recipe
Banana Cream Pies
So I was very excited to make the week’s recipe, which was Banana Cream Pie. This was my first banana cream pie and it was totally delicious. I decided to make this pie in stages since I had some time issues this week. I made the pastry cream first, which I completed with no incident.… Continue reading Banana Cream Pies
