Simple Recipes & Easy Recipes Coca-Cola Cupcakes - StumbleUpon I don’t drink coca-cola. But I do eat it. Weird. Yeah, I dunno. It’s way better eaten. Let’s take a look, shall we? There’s some dark and white sugar cooked with dark dutch processed cocoa powder…and a can of coke! There’s some the ol’ that pouring into this and this pouring into that. There’s some mixing. Take a little PAM and spray the liners–this is a sticky cupcake batter. UPDATED TIP ALERT: A few of you tried this recipe and sprayed them and the cupcake still stuck. These cupcakes are chocolately, decadent, rich and kind of amaze. This frosting isn’t frosting–it’s just whipped cream. And guess what? Next, cherries on top! P.S.

Pizza Braid | Busy Mommy: An Iowa Mom Blog - StumbleUpon A pizza braid is very kid-friendly, easy on the wallet and extremely simple to make. My aunt and cousin first introduced me to them and I’ve been hooked ever since. The possibilities are endless of the varieties you could make (check out the Apple Dessert Braid!), but the recipe below is for a very basic hamburger and pepperoni braid. You could make your own dough, but I prefer the shortcut of using Rhodes rise and bake dough. This is one of my favorite shortcuts to make a nice loaf of bread or use in recipes like this one. As I said, this is extremely basic. The dough takes a few hours to rise, so I take it out in the morning and place a towel over it. Yes, yes the dough in that photo has not risen fully. Then you spread out the sauce, lay the meats down, followed by the cheese. Then with a pizza cutter, start cutting about 1 inch thick strips down the whole rectangle. Follow the pictures above. A few minutes before it’s done I brush with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano.

Not so much a recipe&8230; & Jo In the Kitchen More of a “why have I not been doing this for years?” post. Remember back when I made caramel sauce? The other day, I decided to make caramel sauce. I’d also been pouring the leftover coffee into an ice tray and freezing it in the off hand chance I’d have time to make iced coffee. See where I’m going? I didn’t have time to cold brew, so I made coffee in the french press, poured it into a pitcher, and let it rest in an ice bath. Once it was chilled, I took the caramel sauce and drizzled it in some glasses. Totally fancy, I know. Then I added the coffee cubes, my favorite creamer, then the coffee. Lovely. For this batch, I didn’t let the coffee cool enough, so the caramel drizzles disappeared when I poured the coffee in. So, now that I have the power of delicious iced coffee, you’ll find me out in my back yard, chillin’ with a book and sippin’ on love. Pioneer Woman’s Caramel Sauce Combine butter, brown sugar, half and half and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Like this: Like Loading...

The Infamous Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip Cookies Now, I have a chocolate chip cookie recipe that I swear by. I love it, I think it is incredible, and I haven’t changed my mind about that.

Milk is, in fact, an essential component to enjoying these amazing cookies. Author: The Crepes of Wrath Prep time:

Mongolian Beef | Crepes of Wrath THIS DISH IS SO GOOD. I found it on Pink Bites and I can’t say enough good things about it. It tastes exactly like something that you’d get at a Chinese restaurant. Mongolian beef is Kramer’s favorite thing to get when we go out for Chinese, so I was really happy that I was able to recreate his favorite dish! I can’t wait to make this again. The sauce is incredible and goes great over rice on its own. Your ingredients. I used cube steak, but you can use whatever cut of meat you’ve got, mostly. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the sliced beef. Shake of the excess cornstarch in a colander or mesh sieve. Add the ginger and the garlic to the pan. Then add the soy sauce, water, brown sugar and red pepper flakes. And transfer to a bowl. Cook the meat in the same pan until no longer pink. Add the sauce back to the pan. Serve over rice and enjoy!
