The credit for these cookies goes to Siobhan over at Food Fixe. So smart – neither Larry or I like peanut butter cookies very much, so why not use almond butter? I skipped the chocolate dipped part of the recipe, only because I was lazy. I think a bit of chocolate coating on these cookies [...]

Salted Almond Butter Cookies
Posted by Sheri on Saturday, April 7th, 2012 · Comments (1)Gramercy Tavern Gingerbread
Posted by Sheri on Thursday, April 5th, 2012 · Comments (0)The defects in this cake aren’t it’s fault. It’s probably a great cake – it has terrific spicy flavor and it’s got that bit of moist stickiness from molasses that makes gingerbread so irresistible. I take the blame for the problems with the cake – the baking soda needed to be added to the liquid, [...]
Peanut Butter Marshmallow-Crunch Brownies
Posted by Sheri on Saturday, March 31st, 2012 · Comments (2)I don’t mind baking requests – in fact, I love them, because sometime I have the itch to bake but don’t know what to make. Baking with a purpose can be fun. The request for these brownies came from our friend Dan, who asked for something chocolate-marshmallow-s’mores-ish. I thought these would be just about perfect, [...]

Chocolate Coffee Cake with Dark Chocolate Ganache
Posted by Sheri on Sunday, March 25th, 2012 · Comments (8)I was a little nervous about this week’s Baked Sunday Morning project. Cakes aren’t a problem. Giant, three-layer cakes tend to be a challenge for me, though. They usually end up crooked or the buttercream somehow slides off. My decorating skills aren’t the best, either. The first problem I had was lack of pans. I [...]
Salty Caramel Ice Cream
Posted by Sheri on Wednesday, March 21st, 2012 · Comments (1)Assana’s favorite flavor from Jeni’s is the salty caramel. Normally that would be my favorite flavor too, but Jeni’s version just doesn’t do it for me. I don’t know why. Not salty enough, maybe… and the caramel has a hard edge that I don’t love. Normally I use the wet method to make caramel – [...]
Roasted Strawberry & Buttermilk Ice Cream
Posted by Sheri on Tuesday, March 20th, 2012 · Comments (1)It’s the first day of Spring, my favorite time of the year. Bulbs are in bloom, our persimmon tree is sprouting tiny green leaves, and the markets are full of the first of the spring produce – asparagus, tiny perfect radishes, green garlic, spring onions, and the very first of the strawberries. This is also [...]
Key Lime Pie
Posted by Sheri on Wednesday, March 14th, 2012 · Comments (2)Happy Pi Day! Despite my welcome problem of too many Meyer Lemons, my key lime tree hasn’t been as fruitful. In fact, it hasn’t produced one lime. But since it’s citrus season, I can find them in stores occasionally. Larry and I ate our weight in key lime pie a few years ago when we [...]

Thousand-Layer Chocolate Chip Cookies
Posted by Sheri on Monday, March 12th, 2012 · Comments (2)I thought I was pretty much done trying any chocolate chip cookie recipes ever since the NYT recipe was published. But when I saw these, I could resist. I wanted a thousand layers of chocolate chip cookies. This is a mostly standard dough, except it uses egg yolks instead of whole eggs – interesting, and [...]
Peanut Butter & Jelly Bars
Posted by Sheri on Sunday, March 11th, 2012 · Comments (4)This week for Baked Sunday Mornings, we again delved into a recipe I would have never chosen to make on my own. I don’t like peanut butter and I think the last time I ate peanut butter and jelly was probably when I was in grade school (I didn’t like them then, either). These bars [...]
Classic Sugar Cookies
Posted by Sheri on Wednesday, March 7th, 2012 · Comments (3)I hate it when beautifully decorated cookies taste the opposite of how they look. Sugar cookies can often be dry, tasteless chunks of cardboard that are pretty on the outside, icky on the inside. These cookies don’t fit that description – they’re a bit delicate and very buttery, a really nice cookie. I could have [...]
