Sweet Recipe: Double Chocolate Bourbon Egg Cream Here's a funny thing about an egg cream: It contains neither eggs nor cream. What it does offer is a sweet yet light way to end a meal. And, if you're so inclined (I am) you can slip your booze in at the same time. The egg cream is a soda shop classic. I don't know how "egg" and "cream" became associated with this drink, since it has neither, but it is indeed both creamy and refreshing at the same time. This egg cream is another good example of a way to end a meal with a kick of something sweet that's sipped from a straw. It's also just about the easiest dessert imaginable. And if you, like me, enjoy the taste of bourbon with your chocolate, then whisk a little in with the milk, and sip away in the springtime sunshine! A few more notes on my process below: • A traditional egg cream calls for plain milk mixed with chocolate syrup (Fox's U-bet, to be really precise). Double Chocolate Bourbon Egg Cream makes one drink Pour the chocolate syrup into a tall glass. More Desserts to Sip
Patty Melts Who doesn’t love a patty melt? Well, besides vegetarians, people who don’t like rye bread, people who don’t eat onions, or anyone observing a low-fat diet. Which begs the question: Why can I never begin a cooking post like a normal person? Okay, I’ll just put it a different way: I love patty melts. Absolutely, positively to die for. To start, violently grab an onion. Whack it in half… Then cut off one end, peel off the skin… And slice them up! Grab a tablespoon of butter… Throw it into a skillet over medium-low heat… And throw in the onions, honey baby! Stir them around, then let them cook slowly while you get everything else ready. (Name that movie.) Grab some ground beef. Sprinkle in salt… Pepper… And several dashes of Worcestershire sauce! Smush it all together with your hands until it’s all combined… Then form the meat into patties. Real quick-like: stir the onions! Then throw another tablespoon of butter into a separate skillet… And cook the patties over medium to medium-high heat. Amen. Ingredients
broccoli parmesan fritters Last week, it was pointed out to me that among the 750 recipes in the archives, there is but a single recipe that utilizes broccoli. Just one! (It’s a great one, though.) Please understand: this is not one of those stories about how preciously advanced my toddler’s tastes are, how early he took an interest in foie gras and how he turns his nose up at white flour pastas, preferring farro. I have a theory that you can tuck almost any finely chopped or shredded vegetable — be it potatoes, zucchini, or an Indian-spiced mix — into a savory pancake, fry it in small mounds until crisp on both sides, serve it with a dollop of a sour cream or yogurt sauce and they will be inhaled. So, you know where this is going. And with that, I had them for lunch instead.

15 Minutes to Fame – Gnocchi for Beginners. And for Braggarts. May 19th, 2009 I just don’t know where to start. Sometimes a proper introduction to a recipe is so far out of reach & the spark just won’t catch – not so today. First things first, and most importantly: These gnocchi are heaven in a bowl… velvet-like cushions to your bite… a revelation to your tongue… I could go on and on and on. This is why I chose this recipe for a little cooking get-together in our kitchen two weeks ago, my ulterior motive: could I convince my friend Ulrike to take home this recipe and give it a shot herself? Armed with a new serving of confidence I called my friend Hande in Rome the other day. Meanwhile she and her husband not only called to report back – Hande was totally delighted with her gnocchi results and couldn’t stop raving – she made them in less then 10 (!) Hande on these gnocchi and the perfect wine: Oh, Nicky makes it sound as if it was a piece of cake selling me the idea of making my own gnocchi – you should know: I don’t do doughs. Ingredients (for 2):
Chocolate Chip Mini Cheesecakes The only thing better than a full sized cheesecake is a mini cheesecake. One could argue that a full sized cheesecake is better because you get so much more – but there is a lot to be said for single-serving cheesecakes that can be made easily in small batches. They’re quick and convenient to bake, and they offer both portion control and portability. These Chocolate Chip Mini Cheesecakes are a simple cheesecake batter baked in a standard muffin pan, and no waterbath or other special equipment is required. This recipe makes a small batch, just 8 mini cheesecakes. Chocolate Chip Mini CheesecakesCrust 1 cup graham cracker crumbs 2 tbsp brown sugar small pinch salt 2 1/2 tbsp butter, melted Cheesecake 8-oz cream cheese, softened 2 tbsp sour cream or greek-style yogurt 1/3 cup sugar 1 large egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 cup chocolate chips Preheat oven to 350F. Makes 8.

Chocolate Truffle Tart Recipe: Grace's Sweet Life Tart Recipes Posted by Grace Massa Langlois on Friday, 29th April 2011 When it comes to chocolate, when is enough, enough? The other day I asked my daughter, Liana, if is she would mind stopping at the specialty market on the way home from school to pick up my supply of chocolate? Of course she quickly agreed (probably will be the last time). Off she went with my carefully documented list of the types of chocolate I needed, bittersweet, semisweet, milk and white and more importantly the names of the brands I preferred for each type of chocolate (I am so particular). I wasn’t prepared for the barrage of phone calls. I sensed her frustration over the phone but when she returned home, well, that frustration was written all over her face. Well, I took the time to calculate the “usual” amount. So what’s a girl to do with chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate? Regular chocolate chips just won’t do in this special dessert. This is one of my go to dessert recipes when I’m hosting a dinner party.
Carbonara I love carbonara. It's fast, simple and cheap, yet very filling, warm and comforting. I generally don't like it when I get it at a restaurant which is surprising to me because it is so easy to make! We also made garlic bread. Usually we use raw garlic on garlic bread. The butter garlic mixture with some parsley added. Crushed red pepper on top and ready for the oven. My favorite pasta for this dish is linguine. I slice the bacon in half the long way, and then cut small pieces the short way. When the bacon has about 7 minutes left, I drop the pasta and add a few pieces of diced onion to the bacon. When the pasta has 1 minute left, add garlic to the bacon. Work quickly now. cup and a half of cream and 4 eggs. 3/4 cup of parm. Stir the pasta into the bacon for about 30 seconds. This bowl has been warmed until you are just barely able to hold it. Add the parsley. And cheese. And keep stirring. Yum. Top with more parsley and cheese and cracked black pepper. Recipe
Pita Bread Recipe | Blogger For Hire This pita bread recipe makes amazingly soft and fluffy pitas. If you’re in the U.S. and are used to the cardboard rounds sold at supermarkets here as “pita bread,” you’ll be amazed once you try the real thing. The yeasty, delicious aroma, the chewy texture and the delicate taste will get you hooked immediately. There’s one caveat though: once you try these, you won’t be able to go back to eating supermarket cardboard pita. The dough in this pita bread recipe is mixed by a bread machine. If you don’t have a bread machine, you can prepare the dough by hand. Makes 12 small pita bread rounds, or 4 servings Ingredients 1-1/4 cups warm milk (I use 2%) 2 tablespoons olive oil 3 cups bread flour (all-purpose should work) Up to 1/4 cup more for flouring the work surface 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar 3/4 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon rapid rise yeast or bread machine yeast Directions 1. This is what the dough looks like when you remove it from the machine. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Repeat with remaining dough. It’s true.

Queso Blanco I don’t think it’s much of a secret that I’m a fan of cheese. Cheese pizza, cheesecake, cheese fries, grilled cheese, macaroni and cheese, cheese and crackers…the list goes on and on. But melted cheese in particular definitely holds a special place in my heart. This dip takes only minutes to prepare and it is an addicting appetizer, snack, or side dish to your dinner. The heat from the jalapeno is subtle, definitely not too intense. Note: You’ll see that one of the ingredients is white American Cheese. Here’s what you’ll need. Start by dicing an onion. Then seed and devein your jalapeno, the heat is mostly in the seeds and ribs. Remove the seeds from a tomato. Chop the tomato up Ok now it’s time to grate the cheese. Heat oil in a pan and start cooking the onion and jalapeno until tender, about 5 minutes Then pour in the milk Add in the star of your show next- CHEESE! Roughly chop some cilantro. Once the cheese is melted, add the tomatoes and cilantro. This looks just about right! Yield: 2 cups
