Sticky Toffee Pudding Recipe

We had sticky toffee pudding recently at Peli Peli in Houston, TX.  What a treat!  They served it as a large cupcake topped with caramel sauce and heavy cream.  It was so rich, but I think a scoop of vanilla ice cream would have been better than the cream.   The cupcake was hot inside and seemed like a cross between gingerbread and carrot cake in … [Read more...]

Tortoni Ice Cream Treat

This Italian treat is a favorite of mine. You take vanilla ice cream, soften it, and mix in almonds, crumbled cookies, some chocolate, heavy cream, a little rum, and candied cherries.  Then freeze it for a beautiful dessert.  Who can resist having at least a little dish of this?You can follow the recipe or use things you have on hand. It's pretty … [Read more...]

Super Easy Bananas Foster Dessert

I love how quickly this dessert goes together.  It's inexpensive also, but always impresses.  Back in my dating days, I used to go to a very trendy restaurant in St. Louis called Cyrano's.  It had almost a 50's beatnik coffee house atmosphere as it was in a basement, the walls were all old exposed brick, exposed pipes, and lighting was mostly by … [Read more...]

American Flag Cupcakes for 4th of July

Love cupcakes? How about a little American flag on the top of a cupcake? Very cute.Just frost any cupcake or muffin with while frosting, smoothing it out as much as possible. Then put some small blueberries to be the stars. Be sure they are dry when you put them on so they don't make a little puddle in the icing. You can make 3 rows of 3 … [Read more...]

Green Pistachio Bundt Cake or Cupcakes

I love this look for Spring. This is a quick cake to make using a yellow cake mix, pistachio pudding mix, and some green food coloring. Great for St. Patrick's Day as a bundt with powdered sugar as shown in the picture. Or turn it into cupcakes with fluffy white icing, green sugar crystals & perhaps a green candy shamrock. Fun & … [Read more...]
