WholeSoy Yogurt Giveaway

January 23, 2012 by Melissa

CONGRATULATIONS: Jasper @ crunchylittlebites.com you are the winner!Well, I'm officially moved into a Memphis apartment. I am coping with the fact that my kitchen is a fraction of the size of what I need and has no pantry (yup, no pantry)...which means baking ingredients are piled onto the built-in desk station. I feel brain dead from exhaustion and haven't been able to figure out where to start … [Read more...]

Malted Vanilla Pudding Cookies

January 19, 2012 by Melissa

You'd never guess it by looking at my pantry, but I have a stash of sugar-free fat-free pudding in every flavor they make. A few months ago, I had a bit of mis-guided inspiration, and thought of all of these desserts that would be quick and easy and full of flavor, primarily by using pudding powder and cooking them in the microwave...what a fail. I didn't take into account that my refusal to … [Read more...]

Milk Bar: Malted Milk Crumb

January 17, 2012 by Melissa

Here's another recipe from my new favorite cookbook, Momofuku Milk Bar. I first made the Birthday Cake Crumb, and had a great time using it in a muffin recipe, so I decided to try another crumb! Today, I made the Malted Milk Crumb. I have only just become accustomed to the taste of malt and am finding that I love it when it's used in a subtle way. I never liked it as a child, always hated … [Read more...]

Gluten-Free Fudge Yum Cookies

January 16, 2012 by Melissa

These cookies are so good! They are chewy yet have a bite to them, and they have a gorgeous sheen. They are made without flour, so as long as you use gluten-free chocolate chips, they are gluten-free! You will also be shocked at how easy they are to throw together. If you love the taste of rich, chocolate brownies, then these will be your new favorite cookie. The secret ingredient is the malt … [Read more...]

You Think You’re A Foodie…

January 13, 2012 by Melissa

I don't know about you, but I definitely consider myself a foodie. I think I'm adventurous in my eating and very knowledgable about all varieties of food (I've often found myself the target of food trivia questions). That said, have you seen this list of 100 foods you should eat before you die? I was excited when I heard about it, because they say that the average person has had 20 of them, and I … [Read more...]

Cinnamon Roll Baked Oatmeal

January 12, 2012 by Melissa

I love oatmeal in all of its forms, but I think that baked oatmeal is a stroke of genius, especially for dieters. It makes such a wonderful substitute for cake if you have to have your evening dessert (and I absolutely do) and it is full of great fiber and nutrients, where cake is not. This cinnamon roll version is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth for a fraction of the calories. I used my … [Read more...]

The King’s Morning Bread

January 11, 2012 by Melissa

I have been extremely busy and frazzled lately, which leaves very little time for my baking. I did manage, however to make a morning cake loaf that was inspired by my immanent move to Memphis. Based on a buttermilk blueberry cake, I incorporated bananas and peanut butter, hoping Elvis would love it as much as I do.This cake is packed with fruit and it may seem difficult to spread the batter in the … [Read more...]

Birthday Cake Cupcake, for one

January 4, 2012 by Melissa

Today's recipe builds on a previous post: Birthday Cake Crumb. Here's where you can start to see the versatility of our previous recipe. This Birthday Cake Cupcake is so adorable and it's flecked with multi-colored sprinkles, just like Funfetti! Yay! And, if it makes you feel better, because I didn't frost it, you can call it a muffin (I won't correct you)! But please feel free to top it with your … [Read more...]

Milk Bar: Birthday Cake Crumb

January 3, 2012 by Melissa

I'm sure many foodies had a similar Christmas nirvana experience and also received the Momofuku Milk Bar cookbook for Christmas. If you did, you know the exact state of heaven I was in while reading it page-for-page, several times. The recipes are so brilliant and complicated yet doable. I usually page through a cookbook upon receiving it and put a post-it on the page that I deem worthy of being … [Read more...]
