Creamy Cashew Marzipan
I was inspired to make this marzipan after discovering a recipe for a peanut-based on in Fany Gerson's "My Sweet Mexico." She said you could substitute pecans, pistachios or almonds, but, in honor of my grandfather, whose favorite nut is the cashew, I went for cashews instead. This was simple and fun to make, as well as a real time-saver. I made it for a party and it seemed to be a hit; the fun shapes--from dachshunds to hearts--probably didn't hurt.
Chocolate Stout Sorbet
Stout and chocolate have so very much in common. For starters, I love them both dearly. They are thick, smooth, creamy, nutty and, if you're dealing with the good stuff, bittersweet. When combined they make an intensely deep and rich flavor. If you use homemade chocolate syrup, this dessert is not very sweet. Top with sweetened condensed milk for a nice contrast of flavors.
Frozen Nutty Chocolate Bananas on a Stick
A light, made-for-summer take on fair food, reminiscent of the flavors that can be found amongst the Looff Carnival confection stands on the boardwalk in Santa Cruz.
Deep Fried Oreos
We ate this fried oreo recipe at the Montana Drive-In in Estill Springs for the first time last week. I swear I would just about leave my husband for these.
Brown Butter Nectarine Cobbler/Cake
This dessert comes from a subset of cobbler recipes with cakelike leanings. It’s blissfully easy. Melt some butter in a skillet (cast iron, if you have it), mix together a pancake-type batter in a bowl, toss with fruit and bake. Raw fruit in this recipe bakes up juicy with a firm yet yielding bite that is not at all mushy. (Keeping the skins helps that.)
Blueberry Grappa Sauce
This Blueberry Grappa recipe is great because it's not too sweet, isn't pureed, and it finishes with the sting of grappa. Serve with cake, ice cream, or yogurt.
Cherry Cobbler With Almond-Buttermilk Topping
The topping for this almond-scented cobbler is a buttermilk biscuit batter made with a mixture of flours. Cornmeal contributes texture, and whole-wheat and almond flours add nuttiness. For a gluten-free version, substitute almond meal or rice flour for the whole-wheat flour.
White Chocolate Pudding Cocktail
The combination of ingredients in this White Chocolate Cocktail recipe needs to be jaw-dropping delicious to make for the perfect cocktail for the summer months.
Watermelon Slush
I came up with this when trying to dispense of a whole watermelon that was consuming way too much real estate. It's so easy I'm not sure you can even call it a recipe but it's refreshing, it tastes like summer and it gets the job done. - Summer of Eggplant
Lemon Thyme Limoncello
Inspired to create a sorbet by Abby Dodge, I chose to make three cocktail sorbets with the addition of a fresh herb.The Lemon Thyme Limoncello was my favorite!
Kir Royale Jello Shots
This is what happens when an Italian guy goes to a frat party in Paris. Maybe. Or something like that. - aargersi
Café Glacee (a.k.a. Chocolate Black Russian).
This Sheridan's coffee liqueur recipe is delicious! I like the combination of coffee and chocolate with orange that is why I use Grand Marnier liqueur.
Summer Fruit Fool
Light and summery, this dessert is perfect for hot days. It is so easy my four-year old made most of it - that is why it is decorated with Cadbury's chocolate buttons.
Raspberry Riesling Sherbet
This perfect summer treat needs just 5 ingredients: fruit, milk, buttermilk, sugar, and riesling. The result? A perfectly balanced, sweet dessert.
Raspberry Frozen Yogurt
I grow raspberries in my garden. Although I always have a good crop, not all the raspberries are picture-perfect. For this frozen yogurt, looks don't matter, as the as the raspberries are cooked and strained. In the winter, I make the coulis from frozen raspberries. It is my favorite recipe to capture the wonderful flavor of raspberries, and a very simple one at that.
Strawberry Sorbet From The River Café
The iconic Genius Recipe that started it all, the River Café's strawberry sorbet is no-churn magic! Lemon, sugar, and berries are all it takes for the best sorbet of your life.
Pineapple Dragon Fruit Semifreddo
This pineapple dragon fruit semifreddo recipe came out of desperation to make something refreshing on a hot day. It's 100% fruit and really hits the spot!
Meyer Lemon Key Lime Marmalade
Amazingly delicious Key Lime Marmalade recipe that tastes like you've spread your favorite lemon-lime artificially-sweetened carbonated beverage on your toast.
Sequilhos
This sequilhos recipe is not difficult to make. You just have to mix all the ingredients together, which are tapioca flower, sugar, butter, eggs, and coconut.
Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
To me baking gluten-free is not about cooking without traditional flour but cooking with a variety of flours. I enjoy the challenge of thinking outside my flour canister when baking.
Forgotten Surprise Cookies
These cookies are a variation on the classic "forgotten" meringue cookies that are cooked by "forgetting" them in the oven overnight. The crunchy mint chocolate hidden inside these bite sized meringues makes them utterly irresistible.
Blood Orange Dreamsicle Float
This float is soda fountain meets ice cream truck and all kinds of lip smacking deliciousness. Who doesn't have great memories of the orange/vanilla popsicle? Aside from being embarrassingly easy to make, it would also be yummy with freshly squeezed tangerine, or just plain freshly squeezed orange juice. I happened to have a bunch of beautiful blood oranges hanging around, so that's what I chose.
Gluten-Free Chocolate-Glazed Almond Layer Cake With Cherries
End-of-the-World Whiskey Sours
Every now and then someone declares that The End of the World is coming and I take it as an opportunity to make this Armageddon Drink recipe. Just in case.
