Cream Cheese Frosting

Last updated on February 23, 2019 by John K. Leave a Comment

This easy cream cheese frosting recipe is addictively delicious and so quick to make!! It’s as easy to make as American buttercream but has an amazing depth of flavor thanks to the cream cheese AND it’s not as sweet. What goes well with cream cheese frosting? Carrot cake is a favorite paring with cream cheese...

Red Velvet Cupcakes

Last updated on February 23, 2019 by John K. Leave a Comment

There’s something so addictive about cream cheese frosting; sweetness is tempered with a bit of tang, the texture is creamy and luscious and it’s something you can whip up in a few minutes. I love this frosting on nearly everything but a slightly chocolatey cake creates a special combination known as red velvet! What do...

Chocolate Tart

Last updated on February 20, 2019 by John K. 6 Comments

I’ve made chocolate tarts before but I was inspired to up my game by some of the amazing pastry chefs on Instagram like Aumaury Guichon and Topless Baker. I bought a couple moulds for nice domes and a set of perforated rings for baking the perfect tart shells. The whole process was so much easier...

Have you ever wanted to make a chocolate, silk pie? Well, you should! They might be the most indulgent dessert ever AND they’re super easy to make…if you weren’t already sold at “chocolate.” How to Avoid Burnt Pie Crust I don’t know if you’re in this habit but tenting your crusts with tin foil for most of...

Bacon-Wrapped Filet Mignons

Last updated on February 11, 2019 by John K. 1 Comment

These steaks are the ultimate date-night indulgence. To get a jumpstart on this recipe, make the butter a day or two ahead, and store in the refrigerator. It’s also delicious stuffed into a hot baked potato. What is the difference between beef tenderloin and filet mignon? A filet mignon, French for tender/delicate filet, is actually...

Veggie Burgers

Last updated on February 7, 2019 by John K. 4 Comments

Veggie burgers can be a satisfying departure from traditional hamburgers when you pack them full of hearty and flavorful ingredients. Quinoa and black beans are great sources of plant-based protein, along with pepitas, that add a toasty, buttery crunch. While an Italian cheese like Parmesan may seem odd in these south-of-the-border burgers, it gives them...

Can you say flavor bomb? Lean ground turkey gets a whopping flavor punch from loads of fresh cilantro, chiles, and ginger, making these beef-free burgers anything but bland. Paired with a simple stir-together mayonnaise and a quick-pickled slaw that comes together in less than 10 minutes, this is a great way to level up your...

Besides being a knockout dinner, this roasted duck yields a pan of delicious duck fat, which you should definitely pour into a jar and store in the refrigerator for jazzing up future recipes.

I did a lot of recipe testing for this much-requested cake but in the end I lightly adapted the recipe for the batter from a New York Times recipe. Wonderful moist fluffy sponge, and I loved the typo saying it made 8 inch layers! LOL, even the best of us make mistakes…Check out my Chocolate...
