  • Famous Apple Hill Apple Cake

    I’m posting one of my all-time favorite recipes today! The battle between this apple cake and an apple pie for Apple Week was brutal.  A classic apple cake recipe from Apple Hill itself, which is published every year in their little map-tour booklet vs. the most iconic apple dessert of all time (in America anyway)?!?!…

  • Pumpkin Pie Spiced Ice Cream

      Happy First Day of Fall!!!!!!   Um, this is my favorite time of year.  And I have been in Southern California for the past four years, and have sadly missed my Nor-Cal falls.  I just think it’s a happy, peaceful, beautiful, cozy time, and I am so excited.   Except really, in Sacramento, it’s…

  • Moscato & Cinnamon Poached Pears

    I love this pretty little dessert!  It’s beautiful and elegant, and very light.   Plus way simpler than you’d think.   You really just have to throw some things in a pot to simmer and peel some pears.  Yes, it’s that easy.

  • Circus Animal Cookies Ice Cream

    That’s right.  Ice cream that tastes like those frosted Mother’s Circus Animal cookies.   This is a restaurant remake from the same wonderful yogurt place, 21 Choices, that inspired my very first post, Blueberry Muffin Ice Cream!  While I love the blueberry muffin flavor and made it early because they had it so infrequently, it…

  • Roasted Strawberry Shortcake w/ Tarragon Biscuits

        Yes, roasted strawberries!    If you have never tried roasting strawberries, you. should. do. it.  Roasted strawberries are indescribable. Seriously.   But since this is a food blog, I should probably try, eh?  Roasted strawberries are like eating hot sweet sticky fresh strawberry jam.  How was that?  Sound alright?

  • Sweet Corn Tomalito

    Okay, this is one of those love-it-or-hate-it moments.  Personally, I love sweet corn tomalito.   What is sweet corn tomalito?  You know those really inauthentic (yet delicious) Mexican restaurants that seem to specialize only in the greasiest Mexican food and over-sized margaritas (I’m looking at you, Chevy’s & El Torito)?  You know that little scoop…

  • Matcha Green Tea Breakfast Truffles

      Now my breakfast truffles come with a little caffeine jolt!   Perhaps now they’re even more ideal fuel for an early-morning workout!   

  • Chocolate Tofu Pudding

      Alright, I’ve seen these recipes for pudding made with tofu for soooooo long and have always been too scared to try them.  I don’t really know why.  There’s nothing in them that I dislike.  It just has kind of freaked me out a bit.   But I decided it’s finally time.  And although many…

  • Prosecco & Pear Granita Float

    Fresly pressed pear juice and prosecco granita. Melting away in a glass of more bubbly prosecco. Lovely light summer dessert.   Granitas are a perfect summer dessert.  The process is simple: take some kind of liquid (juice, alcohol, coffee/tea, flavored simple syrups, or any combination of those things), and freeze it.  But while it’s freezing,…

  • Cookies ‘n’ Cream Cheese Cupcakes

      Vanilla bean cupcake.   Cookie surprise in the middle.   Decadent cream cheese frosting.  With more cookies.
