Adventures in cooking and baking.
These Levain-style chocolate chip and walnut cookies are a copycat version of the huge cookies developed by the famous bakery in New York city.
These cookies are huge and loaded with chocolate chips and walnuts. The are crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. There's just barely enough dough to hold everything together.
These small batch Parker House Rolls are soft and fluffy and extra buttery. They are named for the Boston Hotel where they were first served.
With their distinctive fold, these are just like the buttery rolls from a full batch, but with only six rolls per recipe, these rolls are perfect for a small holiday dinner.
Brew a glass of Vietnamese iced coffee for a delicious wake-me-up (or help-me-stay-awake) any day of the week.
If you are a coffee lover but haven't had Vietnamese Iced Coffee before, you need to try it. It's super easy to make, and super easy to drink too. Plus, it will give you that extra energy you need from your morning cup of coffee.
Make this creamed kale with Gruyère for your next holiday dinner. It's rich and velvety and it goes so well with both roast beef and poultry.
If you love creamed spinach for holiday dinners as much as I do, you'll love this kale dish, especially with Gruyére and Parmesan.
This potato and celery root mash is an amazing take on mashed potatoes. In fact, if you don't tell anyone there is celery root in this dish, no one will know.
This is a wonderful version of the traditional mashed potatoes you probably make for every holiday dinner. Instead of all potatoes, this version is made with a combination of Yukon Gold potatoes and celery root mashed together just as you would traditional mashed potatoes.
This potato, corn, and pepper skillet with pancetta is such a wonderful side dish for serving with your favorite holiday roast beef, pork tenderloin, ribs, steak, roasted chicken, and fish filet, just to name a few.
This skillet side dish is so easy to make and comes together in just about a half an hour. It's loaded with fresh flavors and you can even make it in advance and reheat it in the same skillet. Plus, you can prepare it on your stovetop, leaving your oven free for roasts, desserts, appetizers, and casseroles.
These Mexican Cinnamon Cookies are a shortbread cookie both filled with cinnamon and coated in cinnamon sugar. You won't be able to stop at just one cookie.
If you have a jar of these cookies in your house, they will call your name. Fair warning. They are super crumbly, sweet, and just small enough for an excuse to have "just one more."
