No-Bake Mocha Cheesecake Pie
Everyone is about the layered coffee drinks these days. I enjoy a good layered coffee drink, and I love to make them at home. Not only does it save me money, but it means I can make my drinks exactly the way I like. In this case, the drink I wanted was really a cheesecake, because cheesecake is really my favorite thing – like this Texas Peach Cheesecake or any of these delicious cheesecake ideas!. Did I mention this is a no-bake...
Fudge Brownie Salted Caramel Cheesecake Pie
Oh, hello there! It has been a while! Since last we spoke I have traveled to Ireland for my Kerrygold adventure, lost my sweet little beagle Zuzu, and spent the last seven months (and counting) in and out of hospitals and rehab facilities with my father who has been given two death sentences only to recover and go back to rehab. He is stubborn! I have also written another cookbook (The Everything Dutch Oven Cookbook out in August and...
Graham Coconut Caramel Cake
I have not made a cake for fun in a while. The problem with having a whole cake sitting around the house is I will eat a whole cake. I know I will. I have seen me do it. So, generally I do not make cakes to keep around the house, but I was feeling domestic the other day, and I was also feeling rather nostalgic. When I was little I would spend a few weeks with my grandmother Lola. She spoiled me with impunity, and would make me all...
Strawberry Orange Cream Puffs
I love it when the trees get green, and the bluebonnets begin to bloom! It means spring has arrived, and with it all kinds of light and fruity desserts that I so adore. Keep your pumpkin spice and gingerbread, I will take fresh berries and sharp citrus any day! Right before I went in for shoulder surgery in February to repair a torn rotator cuff I jotted down a list of recipe ideas to make when I was better. I had a huge brainstorm...
Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars
I just finished writing my 5th cookbook. It has nothing to do with the recipe I am posting today. The book is all about Asian cuisine, and I have included recipes and information about Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese cuisine. I am telling you this because all I have been cooking for the last few weeks is Asian food, and this little blogger needed something sweet as quickly as possible. It also happens that this craving for...
Honey Roasted Peanut Chocolate Chip Cookies
It there anything better than a peanut butter cookie? I am not sure that there is. They are rich, moist, nutty, and they have a subtle savoriness that balances the sweetness making them easy to eat. When it is gift giving season I bake tons of cookies to give as gifts, and peanut butter cookies are among the most requested. I may not know your taste in clothes, perfume, or music, but I know cookies are almost always greeted with great...
