Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread I’m sorry. I know it’s Monday morning and you probably came here for some pretty pictures of food that you could glance at, and then move on with your day… and here I go thrusting warm, soft cinnamon sugar bread in your face. It’s not fair. You don’t deserve this sort of torture. This bread hits all the comfort spots in my soul. I’m sorry and you’re welcome and I love you. Let’s start at the beginning. I did this all without the use of a stand mixer and dough hook. This dough can be made and left to rise , then refrigerated overnight for use in the morning. This is the dough just before it’s left to rise. After the dough has rested and risen for an hour, I knead it in a few tablespoons of flour. This is the part in the bread process where you can wrap the dough and place it in the fridge to rest overnight. I worked with my dough right away. I can’t even deal. I sliced the dough, vertically, into six long strips. After 30 minutes in the oven… oh man…. bread heaven. Makes: one 9x5x3-inch loaf

LorAnn flavors: Lolly, lolly, lolly, get your flavors here First of all, bravo if you are now singing the adverb song from School House Rock. Way to kick it old school. Second, sorry if the song gets stuck in your head all day, it just had to be done. I did it because I want you to be thinking about flavors all day long. Because lately I find I’ve been forgetting about them. Here in the test kitchen there are no less than four places that we keep stashes of LorAnn flavors. *Add a few drops to icing, glaze or cookie dough. *Add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon to cake batter or quick bread/ muffin batter. *Add a few drops to your favorite fruit smoothie. *Add 1/2 teaspoon to your favorite ice cream base to create new one-of-a-kind flavors in your own kitchen. *Add a drop to melted chocolate before you dip fruit in it. *Add a few drops to homemade playdough. *Add 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon to stabilized whipped cream for a mousse cake or pie filling. * Add 1/8 teaspoon to one cup of sugar or salt and mix well. *Freshen up the house for the holidays.

Two Easy Summer Tarts I've been receiving so many beautiful tomatoes in my CSA delivers lately that I've been trying to come up with more easy recipes to use them up before it's too late. Confession: I like easy recipes. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of difficult, involved and time-consuming food experiments too. But, dude, I work a lot (I bet a lot of you do too). Sometimes you just need any easy dinner+dessert idea that can be ready in 30 minutes or less. One item I keep in my freezer is puff pastry. For the tomato tart I used half a sheet of puff pastry. For the peaches and cream tart I also used half a sheet of puff pastry (so one sheet makes dinner and dessert for two people!). I like to bake on parchment paper, making clean up as easy as these recipes.

Chocolate Bundt Cake Recipe Slices of this chocolate bundt cake spent the better part of the past week in the car with me. Each piece, wrapped in parchment, tucked between the Ak-Mak crackers and a jar of almond butter. It is a fine travel cake. This cake gets sweetness and moisture from maple syrup and the darkest of brown sugars. I'm keeping this post short (making my way home) - but for those of you who don't have a bundt pan, I bake this batter in a wide range of pans. Thank you to my Portland friends for the warm welcome. I use less butter here, than most other cakes of this sort. Preheat oven to 350F / 180C, with a rack in the center. Butter and flour (generously) a 11 or 12-cup capacity bundt pan (or equivalent). In a saucepan simmer the beer down to 1 cup / 240 ml. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, sugar, baking soda, and salt. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, yogurt, and maple syrup. In the meantime, make the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, cocoa, and buttermilk.

Taragon Vinegar Making tarragon vinegar is really easy and makes a great looking gift. What you’ll need: - As many bottles as you have gift recipients for. The year we did it, my husband had been drinking Lorina French Lemonade wine in lovely glass bottles, so we developed quite a collection. It’s also a great excuse to drink a lot of wine.· - A bunch of tarragon. I’ve still got it growing (and running amuck) in my garden. To begin, make sure the bottles are thoroughly clean. Ideas for use: - Add to mayonnaise (and chicken salad). More ideas: You can use any other herbs you like, and/or garlic.

Askinosie Chocolate Malt Milkshake Did you know that there's a chocolate factory on our street? We may not live in a big city but one of the world's best chocolate makers works just down the road from our local shop. Askinosie Chocolate is sort of a big deal. I got to take a tour of their factory last year and I've been dying to share a few of my favorite chocolate inspired recipes ever since. This one's quite simple: a glammed up chocolate malt milkshake. Askinosie Chocolate Malt Milkshakes, makes 2 large servings Needed: 3 oz dark chocolate (I used this bar), 1 cup milk, 6 scoops of vanilla ice cream (or frozen yogurt), 5 tablespoons chocolate malted milk, whipped cream and chocolate shavings for garnish. In a small pot melt together the milk and dark chocolate until just melted. Be sure you have a few people to share these with as they are highly addictive.

Make-Money-From-Your-Teenager Salted Butterscotch Blondies How often does your child offer to pay YOU to make something? It really doesn't happen often, um, ever, around here. A few weeks ago, I volunteered to provide a tray of blondies for an event. Kiddo was 2 bites in and announced, "I will PAY you to make more of these." Ok. Kiddo is right about these...they are one of our new favorite recipes for spring. The dangerous thing about these bars is...they are SO easy to make. Now, you will be using Imitation Butter Flavoring. I know, it sounds a little scary. Here's the recipe...you don't even have to pay me. Salted Butterscotch Blondies ingredients: 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter 2 cups dark brown sugar, lightly packed 1/2 tsp. kosher salt 1 tsp. baking powder 1 tsp. vanilla 1 tsp. butter flavoring 1 & 1/2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour 3 eggs, lightly beaten 12 ounces butterscotch chips 1/4 tsp. flaky sea salt Instructions: Preheat oven to 350. Stir in the flour, and then the lightly beaten eggs. Bake for 30-35 minutes.

Brownies in Eggs Brownie en cáscara de huevo No hace falta que os diga que me gusta bromear. Ya os conté las bromas que les gastábamos a los porteros en la residencia universitaria. Allí también hacíamos otra travesura con los servilleteros, esos que son de plástico rojo y vas sacando unas servilletas de papel transparente que ni limpian ni nada… Pues los desmontábamos y escribíamos mensajes en las servilletas: “Te estamos vigilando”, “Sabemos lo que hiciste”, y cosas así… Luego volvíamos a montar los servilleteros, y nos sentábamos a jugar al mus y a esperar a las “víctimas”… Era un poema ver las caras de la gente cuando sacaba las servilletas con mensaje! Como muchas de las ideas que se me ocurren, resulta que ya se le había ocurrido a alguien antes, y al hacer una búsqueda en google encontré muchos ejemplos de bizcochos horneados en cáscara de huevo. Ya está a la venta mi libro “Las recetas de la felicidad” con un montón de recetas inéditas! Puedes ver en vídeo cómo preparo esta receta aquí {Brownie}
