Rarely do flavors come together in a way that make me as happy as these three… pumpkin, chocolate, and caramel. Making matters even better is the fact that it comes in the form of a rich yet fluffy cheesecake square. This is sheer fall perfection… pumpkin cheesecake bars with salted caramel glaze. You are going to be […]
Over the past few years, we have shared loads of recipes here. Many were new takes on existing recipes and some were (as far as I can tell) completely original. That is NOT the case with today’s Treat of the Week: Cheesecake Cupcakes with Apricot Glaze. Today our recipe came directly from a book. I loved it so […]
Sometimes you just need a quick and delicious dessert solution. This is that solution. Of course, there is the matter of the cold brewing time, but that will all depend on whether you have some already brewed or not. The combination of flavors here cannot miss. Coffee, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate? What’s not to […]
A couple of years ago I did an article called Summer Berry Pavlova with Hibiscus Cream. I loved doing that article because of the story associated with it. The dessert was made in honor of the famed ballerina from Russia who was traveling to Australia and New Zealand. As this was such a momentous occasion for the time, […]
Summer is filled with fresh fruit flavors. It should come as no surprise that July is Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month. Coincidently, it is also National Ice Cream Month. As such, we will be featuring a different ice cream treat each Friday this month. Today we begin with Strawberry Pie Ice Cream. We didn’t eat out much when I […]

We are wrapping up Man Week with a very special Treat of the Week. For me, few things are as satisfying as ice cream. This frozen treat isn’t quite ice cream, but it has all of the essential characteristics. This isn’t our first semifreddo. You may remember Peach Semifreddo from last year. This time we have added the flavors […]
The very first ‘pop’ song I learned to play on the piano was Escape (The Piña Colada Song). It was quite a change from the waltzes and sonatas that I had been practicing for so long. The few chords were easy enough to bang out and the lyrics memorable enough that a lounge full of dormitory kids […]
You picked the perfect day to visit. Today I am going to share the secret to making someone happy. Ready? Here it is: find out what they like and make it. Make it well and make it often. I learned a long time ago that my wife LOVES cashews. She loves cashews with caramel and […]
Things have been super hectic around here this week. Life got in the way and prevented me from getting out of all of the stuff I had planned for you. Add to that the fact that the nut infographic that I posted yesterday took about 3 times longer to complete than I budgeted. I scrambled […]
