Pumpkin Chocolate Cheesecake with Roasted Sea Salt Pumpkin Seeds

October 24, 2016 Leave a Comment

The weather in New England has been very unpredictable lately- going from muggy summer like humidity to crisp autumn days all in the course of a week.  We have been holding off on cooking with pumpkins because it just has not felt terribly fall like for more than a day or two in a row. […]

Warm Dark Chocolate & Banana Cake

October 4, 2016 Leave a Comment

I know I’ve gone a little crazy for Jane Green’s Good Taste Cookbook lately…but ever since I received my book in the mail a few weeks ago I have been a bit obsessed. Jane Green always seemed like the sort of author you could be friends with. Someone who you could chat to after you […]

Chocolate Ganache for Valentine Petit Fours

February 9, 2016 Leave a Comment

As my daughter and I walked through the market the other day she was like a moth to a flame with the pretty little bottles of pink and red sprinkles that seemed to be everywhere. Somehow we got sidetracked from our fairly focused shopping trip and ended up with a basket full of Valentine trinkets […]

Devil’s Food Cupcakes with Frito M&M Topping

January 21, 2016 Leave a Comment

I went to a very small liberal arts college in New England.  It was old.  The basement had dark, drippy tunnels and there were rumored to be ghosts in the older buildings on campus.  It was a place that was full of artsy hippy type people from Connecticut and California.  There would be big parties […]

Brownie Waffles with Cinnamon Whipped Cream

November 17, 2015 Leave a Comment

We are a little addicted to waffles here.  Ever since I decided to pull out the twenty year old waffle maker that had only been used about twice…let’s just say it lives on the counter now.  Well…if you know me you know that isn’t true.  It lives very close to the counter where I can […]

Chocolate Maple S’more Cheesecake

September 1, 2015 Leave a Comment

One thing we learned this summer is that our kids LOVE s’mores.  Years ago we let them make them over the fireplace in the living room (it was winter and we did not have a great outdoor space at the time)…it was exciting and messy and fun and they loved it.  But… for whatever reason…(a.k.a. […]

My Grandmother’s Chocolate Caramel Sauce

September 14, 2014 Leave a Comment

As a little girl, we spent a lot of time at my grandmother’s house.  Weekends, weeknights, holidays, you name it we were there a lot.  We got to see our cousins and spend time with our grandparents and I am so grateful that I have those memories now.  While I don’t remember a lot of […]

Tomorrow England plays Italy in the World Cup 2014 in Brazil.  While there has been a lot of controversy surrounding these World Cup games, we decided to focus on the amazing foods of Brazil and were looking for something fun, easy and sweet to serve at our World Cup celebration.  I recalled a few years […]
