Barley Casserole
Delicious earthy casserole for a warming experience. This casserole makes a great side for different dinner combinations or could even be a nice appetizer before dinner.
Peanut Butter Cookies
I wanted to add additional peanut butter flavor to these cookies, so I added peanut butter chips to the batter. I scooped the dough using a small scoop, which was fun and helped keep them all the same size. When the cookies were done, I drizzeld melted peanut butter chips on top with a little sprinkeling of chopped peanuts. Delicuous! This recipe made about 2 dozen cookies.
Marvelous Malfatti
This recipe was so much fun to make, the flavors go amazingly together and make this dish well balanced. The malfatti has a mild enough flavor that it pairs well with the robust sauce, but still flavorful enough that it doesn’t get lost in the sauce. I hope you enjoy making (and eating) this dish as much as I did. Happy cooking!
Chocolate Caramels
Chocolate and Carmel don’t belong together, said NO ONE ever. These little Caramels are extremely delicious! The creaminess of the chocolate and caramel gives it a fudge like consistency, and it is divine. Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed!
Stuffed Cabbage Leaves
Wow, what an appetizer!! I can eat a million of these!! The chewiness of thinly sliced ribeye with the crunchy savoy cabbage leaves is such a total taste bud twist! The small savoy leaves makes this the perfect bite size, healthy snack. Make, enjoy, love!
Cheeseless Cheesecake
Want cheesecake but can’t have the cheese? Here’s an alternative that is sure to please! This soft and light dessert can be flavored in hundreds of combinations. I just so happened to choose a spiced cookie crumb, with hints of lemon and nutmeg. This would taste great in the Fall or Winter. It would be a tasty treat for your guests or family members who have (or want) an alternative! Enjoy!
Blueberry Bars
These bars are to die for! I have never really been a fan of blueberries, but these things are PACKED with flavor and are very hard to resist! The crumbly crust, paired with the gooey center of the blueberries make an amazing pair! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!
Banana Cream Cheese Pie
Looking for a cool, summer dessert? This will go great with a simple family meal or it will be sure to wow your dinner party guests…..and their taste buds! This pie covers several components of any modern, classic dessert. Starting with a sweet, crumbly, and crunchy crust, with a light and airy filling and finally, topped with a melt-in-your-mouth garnishing of caramelized bananas. This will surely be a crowd-pleaser!
Fondant Easter Eggs
I do not consider myself artistic in any sense of the word, but I found decorating these fondant Easter eggs a lot of fun. This would be a tasty treat to make for a gathering or with the family, letting everyone decorate their own egg any way they please. There is no right or wrong way, have fun with it and enjoy the fruits of your labor!
