Posts Tagged ‘dessert’

I love challenges. I needed a dessert for a dietetic intern potluck. The catch – I wanted everyone to be able to enjoy it and one intern eats vegan and another gluten-free. Bring on the challenge, baby! I scoured the internet far and wide (ok, I only used Google and Pinterest) and ended up combing [...]

Raspberry Thumbprint Cookies

I purchased some raspberry jam to make raspberry tartlets for Mike. I got all my ingredients out, dug out my mini muffin liners, and then tragedy struck. I couldn’t find my mini muffin pan. Noooooooooo!!!! I tore my kitchen apart – both the actual kitchen and our basement kitchen and they were nowhere to be found. [...]

World’s Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Well folks, I found it. The only chocolate chip cookie recipe you will ever need. What makes them so good? They’re perfectly fluffy, chewy and well… delicious. I made them as-is the first two times and then mixed in a cup of toffee pieces the third time I made them. The verdict? One of my [...]

Welcoming 2012 with Mocha Almond Biscotti

These biscotti are perfect for the chocolate lover in your life. The chocolatey goodness is highlighted with a hint of coffee and each bite is guaranteed to have some to-die-for chocolate chips and almonds. I loved biscotti back in my coffee drinking days. Now, I won’t touch the stuff, but I still enjoy biscotti on [...]

Wrapping up 2011 with Sea Salt Caramels

It’s been a long, crazy year. Even though I didn’t quite make it through my 11 in ’11 list (oops), I managed to accomplish a lot of things that I am very proud of. Mike and I bought our first house; I got accepted in the dietetic internship program of my dreams; I ran my [...]

Apple Streusel Bars

Mike and I went apple picking with my family a few weeks ago and we went home with a 10+ pound bag of apples. I ate as many as I could (I think I averaged 2 a day). My new favorite snack? Apples with vanilla yogurt and a sprinkle of cinnamon. YUM. There is such [...]

Boston Cream Pie Cupcakes

Well folks, I start my first dietetic internship rotation today. Since I’ll be spending my day talking about nutrition, I figured there was no better way to kick it off with something not-so-healthy. These are time-consuming to make, but the results are so worth it. Delicious white cake topped with ganache and filled with a [...]

White Peach Blueberry Cobbler

Cobbler vs. Ice Cream. Spoiler alert – ice cream wins. I tried my darndest to get a picture of the cobbler with a scoop of ice cream. For some reason, I thought I would be quick enough to get one photo of it before the ice cream turned into a puddle. I even tried taking the [...]

Zucchini Brownies

Folks, I’ve found my all-time favorite brownie. And they’re made with zucchini. It may sound gross at first, but trust me… this is one fantastic brownie. Part of me wishes I hadn’t ever made these, because now I can’t stop eating them, making them, or thinking about them. Still not convinced that these are rock-star [...]
