Strawberry Cream Puffs

March 28, 2016April 26, 2025 GailLeave a comment

Strawberry cream puffs are a great way to use “older” strawberries. The strawberries, cream and chocolate blend together well for a lovely dessert or breakfast treat. I love making cream puffs. They’re pretty easy once you get the hang of it. You can bake the puffs a few days ahead of time and fill them… Continue reading Strawberry Cream Puffs

Pecan Macaroons

March 26, 2016April 26, 2025 GailLeave a comment

Ground pecans take plain old coconut macaroons to a whole new level. Dip Pecan Macaroons in semi-sweet or dark chocolate for a truly sumptuous treat. I love living in Austin. Our house is in an old neighborhood with lots of older people who raised their kids back in the 50’s and 60’s. When I bought… Continue reading Pecan Macaroons

Grapefruit Meringue Pie

March 20, 2016April 26, 2025 GailLeave a comment

Tangy grapefruit gives a refreshing twist to traditional lemon meringue in Grapefruit Meringue Pie. It goes great with a cup of tea or as a refreshing dessert on a hot day. My kids are all so different. Matt is the history buff and geeky gaming guy. You can ask him just about anything historical and… Continue reading Grapefruit Meringue Pie

Mexican Hot Chocolate Tart

March 16, 2016December 1, 2020 GailLeave a comment

Rich dark chocolate with a hint of cinnamon and sweet marshmallows make Mexican Hot Chocolate Tart a reminder of cold winter nights by the fire. When I was a kid growing up in Delaware, the winters were long and cold. I loved making hot chocolate as a treat to warm up after sledding or skating… Continue reading Mexican Hot Chocolate Tart

Citrus Chocolate Stout Cake

March 10, 2016November 29, 2020 GailLeave a comment

You might not think stout would be good in a cake but combine it with grapefruit, orange, and cocoa and you get a moist, dense cake that’s not too sweet. The Grand Marnier cream cheese frosting adds just the right amount of sugar to make Citrus Chocolate Stout Cake a perfect dessert. When I think… Continue reading Citrus Chocolate Stout Cake

Baileys Irish Cream Mousse

March 6, 2016November 29, 2020 GailLeave a comment

Baileys Irish Cream Mousse has hints of coffee and chocolate with a nice Irish kick in a mousse that has no raw eggs. If you want to eliminate the alcohol but keep the flavor, add the alcohol to the hot cream or substitute Irish Cream Italian soda syrup for the Irish Cream and whiskey and… Continue reading Baileys Irish Cream Mousse

Basque Chocolate Cakes

March 2, 2016November 29, 2020 GailLeave a comment

Basque chocolate cakes are a cross between a cookie and a brownie. Dark chocolate cakes filled with white chocolate for a delightful contrast. A few weeks ago I was running errands with a librarian friend of mine and she mentioned that a local book store was having a sale. We didn’t have time to stop… Continue reading Basque Chocolate Cakes

Creamy custard, sweet peaches and crunchy praline combine for a taste of heaven. Baking in a cast iron skillet gives Peach Praline Skillet Pie an extra flaky crust.   When I was a kid growing up in Delaware, we lived in a neighborhood with no fences. Kids cut through yards to get to their friends’… Continue reading Peach Praline Skillet Pie
