• coffee black walnut pound cake

  

  Black walnuts. They really are an acquired taste. Not as popular as English walnuts, black walnuts can be a little spendy, unless you buy them still in their shells, but then their shells can stain your hands and are quite hard to crack open without at least a hammer. Plus, once you do manage to crack […]

• orange pound cake with butter rum glaze

  

  This is an optional version of a cake featured on the King Arthur Flour website. Believe it or not, the same amount of batter used in a 10-cup Bundt can be used in a 9″ by 4″ rectangular loaf pan! The only differences were that I added a little vanilla to the batter and also […]

• cookies and cream snack cake

  

  The thought had crossed my mind that from now on, I could just make this the Oreo cookies and cream blog, but that would get pretty boring after a few months. Haha! I guess I really like Oreo cookies though. Come to think of it, they are my favorite store bought cookie. I promise though […]

• Orange Pistachio (Russiagate) Cake with Impeachment Frosting

  

  This Independence Day, I thought I’d do my own take on Watergate Cake, which was first made popular in the mid-1970s, when instant cake mixes and artificial food colorings were all the rage. It was a popular cake to bring to potlucks and barbeques. The original called for a box of instant white cake mix […]

• Greek Yogurt Lemon Loaf

  

  It is the middle of the month, and as promised, I’m back to the regular foodie/baking blog thing! Happy New Year! Just curious, did you make any new resolutions for the new year? Did you write them down, or do you just formulate a list in your mind? I tend to do the latter. So, […]

• bay leaf pound cake

  

  Let me tell you how I ended up making this. I was listening to Talking Heads on Pandora. Which made me think of David Byrne, the lead singer. Which made me think of Annie Leibovitz, the photographer, because she did a photo spread for the magazine Vanity Fair on David Byrne. In the spread, he’s […]

• lemon anise coffee cake

  

  Baked this in a 1 quart, 7-inch diameter kugelhopf pan. The recipe was inspired by this one from epicurious, but I modified it to include anise flavor. I’m a fan of all things licorice, but I read somewhere that it is insanely hypertension-inducing to eat licorice, even in small amounts. My favorite tea was licorice. But […]

• coffee swirl condensed milk cakes

  

  Greetings! I’m trying to juggle updating this blog regularly, which lately means every Saturday, with being able to be out enjoying the growing number of absolutely gorgeous summer days! Today was hard. It was 70 and sunny. Luckily, I was able to take a walk by the nearby lake, and have lunch out at Ivar’s […]
