Mango Crumb Bars

March 15, 2010 By Jelli 6 Comments

More mango. Yes, I realize I’ve been stuck on this fruit for awhile. Bear with me, it’s in season now and I’m gonna eat all the fresh juicy mangoes I can. In crumb bar form, the mango actually gets to play center-stage showcasing it’s incredible sweetness and tropical fruit flavor. I can vouch that this…

Technique is Everything

March 9, 2010 By Jelli 3 Comments

Yesterday I learned a lesson that cost me more than a dozen cupcakes: Technique IS Everything. I began with high hopes for Old-Fashioned Cupcakes that I´d seen made on Paula Deen´s ¨Paula´s Best Dishes.¨ These basic vanilla cupcakes had rave reviews online, and seemed to be just what I was looking for. Following the directions…

Mango Cheesecake

March 8, 2010 By Jelli 3 Comments

  Mangoes are one of my favorite fruits–though blueberries will always win my heart. Cheesecake is my favorite dessert. Likewise, Cheesecake Factory is my single most important food destination when I head back to the US. “What could be better,”  I thought, “than to meld 2 of my most dearly loved sweet treats into one?” …

FiiF: Zucchini Parm

March 5, 2010 By Jelli 4 Comments

Following inspiration from Tracy at Sugar Crafter, all I could think about for days was scouring the farmer’s market for the plumpest, purplest specimen of eggplant that I could find. When Saturday rolled along and the end of Husband’s and my weekly half an hour spent among sweaty vendors and fresh produce was closing, I…

Dulce de Leche Sandwich Cookies

March 3, 2010 By Jelli 7 Comments

Husband attended an uninteresting invigorating boy’s night of Wii last Friday, while I stayed at home watching Gilmore Girls season 1 with my face slathered in a green clarifying mud mask, eating caramelized banana crepes. In hopes that in shipping dessert out with Husband would win reviews about the cookies and shrink Husband’s portion of…

Although most of my readers are probably not of the vegan persuasion, I just have to share with you this fabulous recipe for a moist, rich chocolate cake that has won my heart and just so happens to be vegan. I stumbled upon the recipe in Midwest Living Magazine, which advertised the cake as a…

Sourdough Carrot Cake

February 24, 2010 By Jelli 6 Comments

Last year, I started my own living refrigerator culture of sourdough starter. My little pet has been a great help and very appreciated participant in many of my baking adventures. He has given lift to many a pancake, borne the long rising hours of the bread to which his name is given, shown he likes…

Baguette Brilliance

February 22, 2010 By Jelli 5 Comments

Husband and I love bread. We just do. I’m pretty sure that were we ever to be forced into the South Beach Diet, we’d be the mischievous rascals slinking into the panaderia during “toilet breaks” at work, tiptoeing out of bed in the wee hours in the morning, and squirreling away our stashes in the…
