Peanut Butter Cups
by TT Jr. September 19th, 2012 | Desserts, Recipes
If you haven't noticed, I kind of love peanut butter and chocolate...It is a match made in heaven, and I could live off of it. Well, besides all of the nutrients they are lacking, like vitamins and minerals, but besides that I could. I have had this recipe with me for over three years. And I'm only fourteen. It is my own completely original recipe that I came up with on my own for my school's entrepreneur day. My teacher said our product needed numerous steps. When I brought this in she automatically thought that it only took one
Fudgy Peanut Butter Brownies

OK, OK. I know I just did a brownie recipe two weeks ago, but in my defense this recipe is waaaayyyy yummier. Last night I had an insane craving for peanut butter and chocolate. My friend, Rachael, who was sleeping over really wanted brownies. Together we decided to attempt a peanut butter swirl brownie. Just the thought of that ingeniously delicious creation makes my mouth water and makes it difficult not to utter yummy sounds.

One Serving Gooey Brownie

The other day I had a real craving for a brownie, but I knew I wouldn't need a whole pan of them. So I scoured the internet, searching for a single serving browning that you didn't use the microwave for. I've tried those before, and the texture is waaaayyyyyy off. When I finally found the recipe and tried it, it was far too chocolaty for my taste, and there was a hint of graininess to it as well because it called for whole wheat pastry flour. So I redid the recipe the next day.

Angel Food Cake
by TT July 9th, 2012 | Desserts, Recipes
Our youngest has a Christmas Eve birthday. A few years ago we offered him the option of celebrating it near his half-birthday. He seemed to think this was a good idea, as the day would be all his and not rushed with other family and holiday events. Thus, for the last four or five years we have had a birthday dinner and dessert in June or July.
Last year he asked for strawberry shortcake. When he and I talked about the type of cake he wanted to use for the shortcake, I thought that he wanted angel food cake. After

Festive White Chocolate Strawberries
by TT July 5th, 2012 | Desserts, Recipes, Simple Solutions
Ideally, I would have posted this recipe on Monday. If I were running just a little bit late, I would have published it yesterday. However, I am quite off schedule with my cooking and writing, as we spent the past weekend at a family reunion. Thus, this 4th of July themed strawberry is a day late. I debated not posting the recipe until next July, but I have a feeling that there will be more Independence Day celebrations this weekend, with the holiday falling midweek.
