Tuesdays with Dorie: Chocolate-Mocha Marbled Bundt Cake

March 29, 2010



Yes, I know. This is Monday, not Tuesday. I'm not crazy (not in this example at least.)

Orange and Chocolate Chip Muffins

March 25, 2010



The final birthday of March and my dessert offerings have bottle necked their way down to muffins.

Baileys & Crème de Menthe Brownies

March 16, 2010


I promise, the green filling in these brownies is all from the crème de menthe, I have not backed out of my vow to avoid food colouring (with the exception of red velvet cake and that time when I was 5 and wanted to be a blonde.)

Soft Dark Chocolate and Blueberry Tart (TWD)


I know. The pictures are all shot from the same angle. I'm not sure why, and it wasn't an issue until I uploaded them and realized how un-artistically uniform they appear, as though they're in a police line-up.

Cook's Illustrated Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie

March 10, 2010



Ok, I think the plan is to post a chocolate chip cookie at least once a month (I hope you are not getting sick of them.) I always think I've found 'the recipe', but there are far too many creatively obsessed bakers who keep coming up with a new trend in c.c.cookies.

Blueberry and Apricot Almond Thumbprints (TWD)

March 9, 2010


These cookies are fabulous. I loved everything about them. From their jewel toned eyes to their lacy dressing of powdered sugar.

Gingersnaps with Lemon-Ginger Cream Filling

March 4, 2010



When I was little, the movie Watership Down gave me nightmares. At the time I was too young to have read the book, but my super-cool babysitter happened to be watching it on television (maybe so she could skip the book.)

Mini Toasted-Coconut Lime Custard Tart (TWD)

March 2, 2010


Rum, coconut custard, and fluffy whipped cream. All that was missing was the lime and private cove from a Maxfield Parrish painting. The lime was easy to incorporate. The weather here is wet, slushy, and muddy so the sea side sunset wish would have required a lot more rum than I was willing to ingest.

Tiramisu (Daring Bakers' Challenge)

March 1, 2010



'I'm late, I'm late for a very important date
No time to say "Hello", "Goodbye"
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late'
