Cookie Tacos

May 11, 2011

Well, I finally did it! I made Pizzelles and I had so much fun. Well, actually I just mixed up the batter, the pizzelle maker actually baked the pizzelles. And since it has a green light that blinks when the baking is finished, most of the guess work is taken care of which is fine [...]

Panna Cotta di Riso con Fragole

May 4, 2011

As I was going through my latest “La Cucina Italiana” magazine, I found a pudding recipe that sounded interesting and it used rice flour as the thickening.

This is one of my Mom’s recipes and absolutely my very favorite chocolate cake recipe EVER! In fact it was the first thing I ever baked when I was about 12 years old! I bet I’ve made this recipe 1000s of times and it is always good. For my Valentine’s Day Cupcakes I wanted to [...]

Fresh Strawberry Salad with Macadamia Nuts and Almonds

February 5, 2011

Okay Mother Nature, you showed me your power but now it’s time for some thoughts of sunshine and warm summer days. Luckily during our last blizzard I had a quart of fresh strawberries sitting in my refrigerator. As the winds were howling and our home was dancing to “Shake, Rattle and Roll” with every gust, [...]

Fresh Strawberry Kiwi Danish

November 4, 2010

I so enjoy making pastries. Pastries are so easy to make and so pretty when completed. And let’s face it, I like making recipes that take many steps to complete. It’s not that I avoid simple recipes like cookies, not at all. But I enjoy the different components, dough, filling and topping because there are [...]
