This panna cotta is pretty interesting. I can’t say that I love it. I would try it again though, and next time I would serve it in the ramekin and make a cornflake crunch to put on top. From Momofuku Milk Bar Cookbook Cereal Milk 100 g (2 3/4 cups) corn flakes825 g (3 3/4 …
I watched season 4 of Netflix Chef’s Table which focused on pastry chefs. The first episode was on Christina Tosi. After watching I decided to order her Momofuku Milk Bar cookbook. Her recipes are quite different than those I normally try. They also involve multiple steps, special ingredients and/or tools. Actually, most of the recipes …

Happy Holidays!!!!! Some friends and I made a few types of cookies for the holidays. These Baci di Dama cookies are FABULOUS! These are Italian cookies and translates to “lady kisses”. I never had these cookies before, but they really were delicious so I’ll have to make these again. We used David Lebovitz’s Baci di Dama …
Happy Easter!!! This year my mom is hosting and I offered to bring dessert. A friend of mine made this cake for a party a while ago and I absolutely loved it. It’s the perfect dessert for those who don’t like their desserts too sweet. Plus, being Easter I figured there would be enough chocolate …

This can probably be made a little healthier…I’m sure using 1/2 stick of butter instead of a full stick would still taste great. And, you can always cut back a tad on the …
As part of this week’s Fresh Fork CSA basket we received a container of yogurt and some blueberries (amongst other ingredients). Ina Garten’s lemon yogurt cake came to mind, and I thought the addition of blueberries would be nice. I made the original version in the past, and remembered it came out really good…nice …
I am reading Michael Ruhlman’s Ratio which breaks down various recipes into basic ratios. His basic ratio for angel food cake is 3 parts egg white, 3 parts sugar and 1 part flour. Simple, right? I received a dozen eggs last week as part of the Fresh Fork CSA program, so this seemed like a wonderful use of …
My friend (also my Italian language teacher) had a Cinco de Mayo party. I wanted to bring a dessert but I am not that familiar with Mexican desserts besides flan which I did not want to make. After a little google searching I found out about tres leches cake which is cake soaked in three …
