TWD Makes a Little Bit of Heaven: Rugelach
Posted by Madam Chow Published in rugelach, Tuesdays with DorieFirst, a public service announcement: VOTE! I love rugelach. I should say, I love homemade rugelach, because this little pastry is best eaten the day it’s made. I’ve tried several different recipes, including this one, and all I can say is that I’m going to have to conduct more culinary experiments. Many, many more experiments. All […]

Concord Grape Pie – You Want Pies With That?
Posted by Madam Chow Published in fruit, pie, You Want Pies With That?This month’s theme for “You Want Pies with That?” is pies as a fashion statement. And my statement is “Purple Passion.” Pardon the really bad photos, but the good news is that we ate this so quickly that I had no pie to go back and re-shoot. It was gone! Eaten! Vanished! One of my […]

Sugar High Friday – Eggnog Ice Cream Profiteroles. Oh, with Chocolate Sauce!
Posted by Madam Chow Published in ice cream, pastryI’ve only participated in Sugar High Friday one other time, and they forgot to list me, much to my dismay. Really, though, my main problem with participating every month has not been hurt feelings (imagine the poor blogger who hosts, trying to keep all these entries straight – stuff happens!), but rather trying to find […]

TWD – Pumpkin Muffins with a Yummy Twist

TWD and Some Delicious Lenox Almond Biscotti
Posted by Madam Chow Published in biscotti, Tuesdays with DorieI am a big fan of almonds. I really love almond, citrus, and passion fruit, and often choose desserts with those flavors over chocolate if I’m eating out. Blasphemous, I know, but I’m trying to keep it honest here. Much to my delight, these biscotti knock it out of the park! Gretchen of Canela & […]
