Chile Blackberry Syrup Recipe. For those of you with summer blackberries on hand, you must must must try this recipe. It doesn't lake long, and you are left with enough sweet & spicy, chile-infused blackberry syrup to keep your taste buds tingling right into August.

I clipped the recipe out of an issue of Gourmet Magazine years ago. Actually, here we go, it was September 2007. I switched up the chiles, made a few other tweaks, and have been using the syrup to spritz up sparkling water all week. It's also great swirled into yogurt, oatmeal, and crème fraîche. Other good ideas: use it to slather on buttered toast, drizzle over goat cheese, and I imagine it'd be a flashy, unexpected offering at any pancake, crepe, or waffle brunch. Gourmet highlighted their original version of the syrup alongside a bourbon-based cocktail (Briar Patch recipe here), and a version of a Desert Sunrise (can't find a version of it online).

Anyhow, I'm sure there are a thousand things you could think of here. Makes about 2 1/2 cups. A&P Spanish Bar Cake. In case you were wondering: No, I cannot eat all these desserts by myself. First of all, I’d rather not weigh 400 pounds — I just don’t think that’d be a very fun way to live. Secondly, even if I developed some wonderful condition that kept me trim regardless of how much pie I ate, baking is no fun unless you can share it with people you love.

For me, one of the most rewarding parts of being a food blogger is watching people enjoy the things I’ve made (that sounds creepy, like I sit and stare at them as they eat, but I’m sure you know what I mean). One group of folks I love to bake for is Mike’s family. Each Sunday evening we gather at their house for dinner and I bring whatever dessert I’ve whipped up.

Yay, SPRING!! One reason I love to bake for Mike’s family is because they’re always encouraging — even if the results of my culinary efforts that week are not perfect! What did I find? Not having tasted Spanish Bar Cake myself, I found it difficult to settle on a recipe! UPDATE: Score! Dandelion Coffee: How To « Riotflower’s Realm. As I mentioned last week, I love dandelion coffee. A few weekends ago, in the brilliant Sunday afternoon sun, Honey and I took her mom to check out the neighbourhood where we’ll be moving soon. I couldn’t bare to peek in on the backyard without climbing around the fence and letting them in to see all the interesting things growing there. Our friends technically still held the lease on the place and I figured that their neighbours on either side would probably recognise me and not call the cops. What would they say anyway, ‘crazy American walked into the backyard and started weeding’?

Dandelion coffee is simple to make: 1. If you catch the dandelions early when the leaves are small, with the flower heads still furled buds at the base, you can have them on salads or make battered dandelions as well!
