• cardamom coffee cookies

  

  Greetings! Here we are with only a few weeks left of 2021. This is usually a period of time when I sort of draw a blank when it comes to food blogging. I think it stems from not wanting to feel the pressure to have to post something festive or seasonal. The one exception though […]

• 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, […]

• cinnamon walnut cookies

  

  I didn’t want to brown all the butter, just half, in order to retain the qualities of the regular butter but to also have a hint of that nutty scent and flavor of the brown butter. The coffee, nutmeg, and walnuts all go really well with it. I wanted to make a cookie that was […]

• chocolate mocha quick bread

  

  I solved the dilemma of whether to call it a cake loaf, or a loaf cake, by deciding on calling it a quick bread instead! Haha! Having said that, though, it really is more like a cake than a bread, I think. But whatever! Call it what you want. It’s an easy recipe with more […]

• chocolate mocha pecan bread

  

  Happy New Year! It’s great to be back! Something called Christmas got in the way! Seriously, though, I always tend to draw a blank when thinking about what to post towards the end or beginning of the year, not sure why. I tend to get very introspective or reflective of the year gone by. And […]

• red bean brownies

  

  One of the few vegan and gluten-free things on my blog! Not low carb or low-sugar though, but I’m working on it. This is definitely not a traditional brownie. Adzuki or aduki bean paste, is a popular Asian filling for sweets and pastries, especially in Japan. It is a canned product and ready to use, […]

• chocolate whiskey bundt cake

  

  Oh, I miss living in the city. I was just thinking today about how much I miss our little apartment by Lake Union as I was taking photos of this cake, because we used to live about 30-40 feet above the sidewalk, and now we live about 4 feet above ground level, which also happens to […]
