He…he….here we go, y’all! The Pumpkin Cream Cheese Skillet Cake. (I baked!) Right in time for the big day. (I baked!) My Wannabe Baker Chronicles continue, you guys. This time in pumpkin form. Which, okay. POOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLAH! Are you a pumpkin fan? (I’m not looking at you, pumpkin spiced latte fans.) I mean like really. Pumpkin […]
And the ricotta is cracked! Like, for Halloween. I planned that. I planned the . . . cracking. I knew that would happen. No, I did. But aren’t they cute? Cracking aside, you’re going to obsess over the flavor because I don’t know if you heard, but we put lemon in that ricotta and it’s […]
I see you, September. There’s pie, yes. There’s a crisp. A crumble. A tart. Great, fabulous. But you have ever put a custard underneath your apples? Have you? Because you’re about to. But first let me admit something about apples, and I need you to hear me out. Don’t get mad. Here we go. Full […]
PIE! I made the pie again! But there’s a sad story. The sad story isn’t about me making the pie again. That’s not the sad part. I knew I’d have to make it again after I botched the crust the first time because I didn’t read the measurements correctly. And when you think about it, […]
I mean, you can see where this is going, right? But see, it’s not just a tart for this weekend. (but make it this weekend) It’s really an anytime tart! Tarte. Tart. Toot. I think they all work. First of all, what’s the temp going to be where you are on Sunday? Here? ONE. ONE […]
So I have a story. (also, dessert, yay!) The above is what happens when someone who’s very much not a baker decides she wants to take a stab at cardamom rolls because the book she was reading (The Scent Keeper, o m g) had a character obsessively making them for guests at her summer fishing […]
But with cream cheese, LOVAHS. Look at me all ragin’ summer like with these burstin’ berries tucked into a golden brown crackly pie crust. And you know what, we’re even GROWING berries in our garden, but all the *&*# birds yoink them just as and before they ripen. I’ve eaten approximately ohhhh let’s see . […]
I baked! With a cheese! Which is super popular apparently. And holy loafers I’m a changed woman. Because you know I’m not a baker. I don’t bake. I have one bread that I make like a maniac, but outside of that I’m a baby mouse lost in a chimney. (<–it’s a thing.) But there was […]
Well LOOK WHO MADE US DESSERT. (spoiler alert: me.) Remember olive oil cakes?? Not that they used to be a thing and no longer are a thing. But I feel like olive oil cakes would fit into that “just like my grandma used to make” category. Along with pink sponge hair rollers and Virginia Slims […]
No the world did not end but yes I baked!! (!) A CAKE. AN ACTUAL LIVING CAKE. But it’s mini. And filled with mascarpone cheese. Because a) cute and b) you can’t argue with your inner raging soul fairies when they guide you to mascarpone. You just can’t. On top of that, it’s not that […]
