How about red wine and chocolate cake in one? Meet Red Wine and Chocolate Cake…Mmmm…
Yes, it’s another drool-worthy recipe I spotted on Smitten Kitchen this week. It has ingredients like mascarpone cheese, cinnamon, plenty of chocolate and of course, wine.
Recipe in the link above. If you make it, enjoy and report back (and save me a piece…!)
When we were kids, my dad used to bring my brother and I soft pretzels from Auntie Anne’s in the airport on his way home from business trips. Cinnamon and sugar on top or cheese dip. We loved them. A few days ago on a shopping trip, my mom and I stopped by and enjoyed a couple of cheese ones.
I found a recipe on Smitten Kitchen to make your own – mini ones. All it takes is stuff you probably already have in the kitchen: water, sugar, yeast, flour, salt, oil, baking soda, egg. Just roll ‘em up:
And bake.
And enjoy.
PS – Remember that entry about Chinese tea eggs? Well my mom’s lovely Chinese friend made me some and now I can say for sure they are definitely delicious!
Another recipe to add to my cooking wish list, these crepes from Smitten Kitchen look seriously delicious. They’re called Sugar Plum Crepes with Ricotta and Honey. YUM!
Recipe is here if you’re hungry!
I always remember looking forward to the nights my mom or grandma put a basket of steaming popovers on the dinner table. Cut one open and pop in a slice of butter while the steam leaks out and watch it melt. I haven’t been able to cook in Colombia because Wilfredo’s family hires a cook, so I’m building up a list of recipes I want to make when I have my own kitchen again.
Stumbled upon these delicious looking corn, buttermilk and chive popovers on Smitten Kitchen the other day. They’re on my list…
Favorite recipes from you?
