Quick Ham & Cheese Braid

February 13, 2012 By Jelli 1 Comment

Last week four loaves of meaty cheesy bread goodness emerged from our warm oven in record time. I love that! Each loaf is prepared in less than 25 minutes, from mixing to sliding-into-oven time. These beauties are deliciously impressive and very filling- enough for a crowd. Expecting visitors for coffee?  Impress them with one of…

Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake

February 4, 2012 By Jelli 2 Comments

Long, long ago when Jellibean Journals was in it’s infancy, I shared this recipe for what I consider my favorite dessert outside the realm of chocolate. Who doesn’t love a cinnamon roll topped with luscious tangy cream cheese? This is it, only UP-styled and much more fabulous. This is cinnamon rolls. This is cheesecake. This…

Dutch Apple Pie Cheesecake

January 22, 2012 By Jelli 15 Comments

The Cheesecake Factory is full of memories for me. My best friend and I used to down endless loaves of soft, warm, complementary bread loaves, enjoy a hearty meal, and then somehow find room for The Cheesecake Factory’s (T.C.F.) spectacular namesake. Fast forward a few years to the newly wedded years:  I introduce Husband to…

Cookie Dough Brownies (& Ice Cream!)

August 17, 2011 By Jelli 1 Comment

What is better than a pan of rich chocolate brownies?  Cookie dough-topped brownies, of course! These brownies are delicious, and even more so when cut into bite-sized chunks and tossed into homemade cookie dough ice cream. I highly recommend making a batch of these, cutting half into small pieces to share, and hoarding the remaining…

Imported Flavor

August 22, 2010 By Jelli 3 Comments

 Last week, I had a carton of rock-hard nectarines at my disposal, and no great ideas for how to ripen them without them turning into mushy brown-fleshed ickyness. Longing for “home-style” desserts, I opted to make a cobbler out of these potentially juicy, sweet fruits. Thankfully, the unconventional method of preparation for the cobbler recipe…

Berry French

July 6, 2010 By Jelli 2 Comments

Yesterday’s dessert of choice was a new one for me. I’d never eaten nor baked a clafoutis, but the experience was worth it. This dessert is the most basic mix of butter, flour, sugar, fruit, and love. Nothing so simple has ever been quite so good….except perhaps creme puffs. If you have 5 minutes, you…

Dorie’s (Inebriated) Banana Bundt

July 2, 2010 By Jelli 2 Comments

A couple of Couchsurfing friends invited us over to dinner last night, requesting we bring a cake. Of course, I was more than happy to oblige, as I love making the most of these opportunities to try new recipes. As most of you I’m sure have experienced, banana cake is an art. Some banana breads…

Disappearing Key Lime Pie

June 28, 2010 By Jelli 1 Comment

Another recipe with no photos? Yes, I admit it, I’m terrible with the food photography. I forget. Nevertheless, I assure you that this key lime pie is perfect for summer. No-bake (Unless you too opt to make the graham crust from scratch.) Cold and citrusy = perfect summer pairing Five minute prep Recipe makes 2…

If you don’t have a bread machine stop reading now. This post is only for the privileged kitchen adorned with the most efficient of bread machines. For those who still crave a soft loaf perfect for butter slathering, french toast, grilled cheese, and garlic bread,  I’ll oblige you with a link to my favorite sandwich…
