TWD ~ World Peace Cookies

February 6, 2009

One of these days I’m actually going to be on time. It’s going to happen. It’ll probably be the day a giant meteor hits the earth destroying all life on the planet before anyone gets to read it. Figures. This weeks selection is brought to you by Jessica of cookbookhabit.

TWD ~ Berry Not-So-Surprised Cake

January 26, 2009

I had a great plan for this recipe. I haven’t filled you in on some of my AWESOME Christmas presents, but I wanted to use one of these great, vintage, copper-colored, mini pans my Mom ebayed for me. One of these days I’ll get around to taking some pics and showing you what great taste [...]

TWD ~ French Pear Tart

January 6, 2009

Wow, Tuesdays With Dorie is one year old. It seems like it’s been around for ages. Although that’s about how long I’ve been baking so go figure! Looks like the grand dame herself chose this week’s treat. The French Pear Tart is courtesy of Dorie Greenspan and it’s a fine, fine tart if I may [...]

TWD ~ Tall and Creamy Cheesecake

December 30, 2008

Sometimes I get the impression that I’m probably one of those insane picky eaters, I guess I am..because….I don’t care for cheesecake. You can pelt me with boxes of Philly if you’d like, but that won’t do a bit of good. I never liked cheesecake. Let me clarify this statement a bit. If someone plops [...]

TWD ~ Butterscotch Pudding

December 23, 2008

This week is brought to us by Donna of Spatulas, Corkscrews & Suitcases. I hate to state this so bluntly, but I’m afraid this was a big loser for me. I could not eat this…period. My Mom loved it though, so I guess it’s a wash. I still ended up spending $5 on a munchkin-sized [...]

TWD ~ Buttery Jam Cookies

December 16, 2008

I just recently made my favorite jam thumbprint cookie recipe and scarfed them down in record time, I’m ashamed to say. So, I was looking forward to trying my hand at Dorie’s recipe for these Buttery Jam Cookies selected by Heather of Randomosity and the Girl. How could you go wrong…butter = yum, jam = [...]

TWD ~ And the winner is…Rugelach!

November 6, 2008

Here we are again with another challenge from the Tuesdays With Dorie group. Sorry for not posting this on Tuesday, but I’ve been overcome by election mania and glued to the TV for the past two days. As far as this weeks challenge goes, Grace from Piggy’s Cooking Journal’s pick of Rugelach was a real [...]

TWD ~ Chocolate Chocolate Cupcakes

October 28, 2008

Here I thought, finally a recipe I’m really looking forward to! I should have known that this week would end up being a let down. Yep, this was a New Year’s Eve recipe. I’m not sure if any of you have experienced this. What happens is you get a recipe built up in your mind [...]

TWD ~ Pumpkin Muffins

October 21, 2008

It’s Tuesday again and we have another recipe that I probably would have never made on my own. I’m not sure if anyone else has this type of issue. I’ve noticed that when it comes to certain ingredients it’s hard for me to think outside the box. Apple = Pie. Raisins = Babka or Oatmeal [...]

My first Tuesday with Dorie!

October 15, 2008

*Squee* Sorry, I was really excited to become part of this group. So this Tuesday was the Lenox Almond Biscotti. Truth be told, I’ve never been a big fan of biscotti. My mouth always felt like a bunch of shrapnel ripped through it after I ate one. I was pleasantly surprised with this recipe because [...]
