pig biscotti (pigscotti)
Greetings! Happy Almost Spring! I love this time of year, mainly because the weather is really mild here in the Pacific Northwest; the heat is not here yet, but the days are not too short, either. I had just a handful of hazelnuts left (I seem to always have just a handful of them left,…

guava bundt cake
This is a pretty straightforward recipe. Also, if you don’t like the guava seeds and are lucky enough to find guava shells, which are seedless, use that product instead. I kinda like the seeds, so I left one or two small guavas intact before processing them so that there’d be a small amount of seeds…

chocolate yogurt cake
I may have finally cracked the code! I may have gotten the right balance and proportion of ingredients for chocolate cake in a loaf pan! Finally! I think not adding too much cocoa is key, as well as not adding too much liquid. Too much cocoa may be drying, and too much liquid may end…

mississippi mud pie
This is not a difficult recipe, it’s just a little time consuming, because you do need to give each layer adequate time to set and get firmer before adding the next layer. If you did not wait to let it set, you may get messy results. After looking at a bunch of different recipes online,…
