Sencha Green Tea Panna Cotta
A while back, I made a simple Panna Cotta. It is one of my go-to desserts to make whenever the hankering for something light and creamy takes hold, especially when the days are warm. I recently had a couple dinners

Flan
My friend Rudy recently hosted a little taco dinner night and of course when I asked what I could bring, his immediate response was, “DESSERT!” So in keeping with the Latin inspiration, I tried my hand at making one of

Hot Chocolate
Ah…. There has always been a little debate over whether hot chocolate and hot cocoa are two different things, or one and the same. Well, I’m a bit of a Type-A personality so if you ask me, I would have

Pumpkin Ice Cream
I love my ice creams and will take any seasonal opportunity to keep my freezer stocked with a quart (or three!) of this creamy treat. Pumpkin is one of those flavors that comes with so many associations of Autumnal weather

Honey Lavender Ice-Cream
This aromatic ice cream boasts a subtle and complex flavor that tastes so luxe, it belies the ease of its making. Using my vanilla recipe as a starting point, all it took was a few ingredient tweaks and method changes

Blueberry Yogurt Muffins
These muffins came about with a good friend of mine, who recently became a mother. Well, maybe not recently, seeing as how her daughter is a year and a half now. We got together to bake baby’s first cake, a

Panna Cotta with Macerated Strawberries
This Italian dessert is one of my favorite things to eat. Of course, there is no coincidence that it is basically a culinary cousin to one of my other favorite foods: ice cream. The two share similar cooking methods: a

Strawberry Ice-Cream
Spring is in full swing, and summer is just around the corner. And that means one of my favorite fruits are coming into season: the strawberry. I love the crisp and sweet, with just a little tang, bite they have.

Chocolate Mousse Coffee Cups
A while back I shared a recipe for making chocolate mousse. It was made using raw egg whites, which gave the mousse its light and airy structure. But for some, the idea of having raw eggs can be less than

French Vanilla Ice-Cream
I’ve said before (in a previous recipe post) that my favorite flavor is vanilla – so classic, but oh so subtle in its variations. While I generally gravitate toward the lighter, crisper taste of a vanilla bean ice-cream, there are

Chocolate Mousse
Ah, it is that time of year again…there is a still a slight winter chill in the air, and in our hearts there beats a warmth for that special someone in our lives. Valentine’s Day approaches and as usual, restaurants

Ice Cream Sandwich
Hello cookie, meet ice-cream. Such a simple collaboration, yet from it comes a wonderful result. This is a self-explanatory recipe, all you need are the two components. As for the flavors? That’s one not-so-simple collaboration for you to decide! (In

Whipped Cream
When it comes to toppings and condiments, nothing beats a good dollop of this airy, dairy delight. It is fresh and light, and sweet with a kiss of vanilla. If only it paired well with savory dishes… I’d put whipped

Chocolate Raspberry Ice-cream
When it comes to ice-cream, I am a big fan of minimal, no-frills flavors. Double-Chocolate-Chunk-Caramel-Swirl-Praline-Cookie-Dough? No thank you! Vanilla is actually my preferred ice-cream of choice. Chocolate comes in a close second. There are ways to enhance traditional flavors without

White Chocolate Vanilla Bean Ice-cream
With spring returning, what better way to celebrate than to have homemade ice-cream. There’s a guilty pleasure I take watching as it churns in the machine, the slow anticipation of seeing it change from liquid form to the frozen state.
