No, there is no crack in this legendary "pie" from Momofuku Milk Bar, but it is so addictive that you can't stop eating it according to many :). It doesn't look like anything special, but it's a rich and gooey treat that has a flavor quite unlike anything you've ever tasted before. The best way to describe it is kind of like pecan pie filling,...

I think I cookie-doughed myself out on my birthday a few weeks back. Between the cookie dough cinnamon rolls and these cookie dough stuffed cupcakes, I think I have curbed my seemingly incessant desire for my favorite dessert/food. Something I thought I'd never say. However, I do not think this will last long. I fully intend to bake my way...

I made homemade peanut butter for the first time! The only thing better than homemade peanut butter? Homemade honey roasted peanut butter! I don't think making basic peanut butter qualifies as a recipe post because it is super easy. Toss a 16-ounce jar of peanuts with about a tablespoon of peanut oil (or a flavorless oil like canola) into a...

Dustin has been looking forward to sharing this post for quite awhile because he wants you to see the awesome pictures he took of these really cool cupcakes. We actually made these cupcakes for a post-Halloween party with a Dexter theme— our friend actually covered his apartment with plastic wrap and set his dining room table up to look like a...

Think white chocolate macadamia nut cookies and replace the macadamia nuts with peppermint. Sound good? Well, that's exactly what these taste like! Of course, when I heard M\&M was releasing White Chocolate Peppermint M\&Ms exclusively through Target, I knew we'd have to make a trip to buy some. We hit the Christmas candy aisle pretty...

I present to you the next installment of my holiday baking adventure... chocolate peppermint whoopie pies! My second attempt at making whoopie pies was much better than my first, that's for sure. I'm not sure where I went wrong last time because my batters looked quite similar (perhaps this time my usage of butter and shortening instead of all...

For my first holiday treat of the season, I knew I wanted to incorporate the flavor of ginger. It's not gingerbread time quite yet, so I sought out a recipe for gingersnaps. Soft gingersnaps because that's how I best like my cookies, and my taste testers will just have to learn to eat all of their cookies the way I want them. Not that anyone's...

I bought a jelly roll pan to make my first roll cake this Thanksgiving, and in the end I was quite happy with my results. What really sold me on this recipe was the beautiful picture in The Pastry Queen cookbook. It is absolutely gorgeous. The cake I ended up with doesn't look nearly as impressive as the one in the cookbook. I guess that's...

Happy Thanksgiving! I'm sure we'll be posting lots of pictures of our Thanksgiving dinner recipes over the next few days, but today we share cake batter popcorn inspired by this recipe on Tasty Kitchen, made on a whim one Friday evening to accompany a movie watching. Melt approximately 1/4 cup white chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring...

We first tried sticky toffee pudding at a restaurant in Houston on a whim. Based on the description it's not really something that would ever jump out at us. Neither of us are huge fans of dates, and Dustin didn't even know they were the main ingredient until we started chopping them up to make our own version. Perhaps our palettes are changing,...
