This week I made two flavors of cupcakes to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. The first is a Green Velvet Cupcake with Irish Cream Cheese Frosting. I adapted a recipe from Stefani at Cupcake Project. Thanks, Stefani for compiling this great list of credits: Stefani got the recipe from Sarah of Daily Nibbles. Sarah tried three…
Happy National Corn Dog Day!
It is not by coincidence that the 52 Foods on a Stick blog went live today. Today, March 20th, 2010 is National CornDog Day. What a perfect way to celebrate foods on a stick AND a fun new 52 adventure. The corndog establishment I have enjoyed the most is the Cozy Dog Drive In in…
Welcome to 52 Foods on a Stick
Welcome to the latest installment in my 52 adventures. In 2009, I visited 52 donut shops, one a week for a year, the 52 Donut project. In 2010, I have been baking a gluten-free sweet treat and sharing it with a different friend each week, the 52 Sweets projects. I enjoy blogging about an annual…
Sweet of the Week #10, Lazy Samoas with Janey
I was never a Girl Scout and not a huge fan of Girl Scout Cookies, except for Thin Mints and Samoas. I realized when I saw the little cuties selling cookies in the grocery store lobby how much I missed those cookies and wanted to try making my own. Over the Summer while in Denver,…
Sweet of the Week #9, Raw Vegan Cheesecake with Mandy
This week’s sweet is Raw Vegan Cheesecake with a berry topping. I am not vegan and failed miserably at my one attempt to eat raw for a full day, but am in love with this cheesecake. I first tried raw cheesecake at the Chicago Diner and couldn’t believe it was non-dairy and did not contain…
Sweet of the Week #8, Margarita Cupcakes with Sheila
February 22nd was National Margarita Day, which found me at the bar of a tiny Mexican restaurant reminiscing with my friend Sheila about good times and margaritas. I wanted to find a way to incorporate margaritas into a sweet treat and cupcakes immediately came to mind. Baking with tequila sounded like fun or at least…
A Sweet Education
Today I attended a Gluten-Free Desserts class at the Culinary Center of Kansas City. The class was taught by Chef Danica Pollard, head pastry chef at Lidia’s Kansas City. I know this is twice in a week I’ve veered off course on this blog, sharing information outside of my Sweet-a-Week, but this class was so…
Sweet of the Week #7, Cinnamon Rolls with John
I will start by acknowledging the great difficulty I have experienced with gluten-free yeast breads. I tried making a nice crusty loaf to go with pasta, it was a horrible failure. I tried making dinner rolls for the holidays, they were an embarrassment. But not one to give up easily, I decided to try cinnamon…
Not a Sweet–but so tasty! Buckwheat Waffles
I don’t plan to make a habit of posting non-sweet goodies here, but tonight’s dinner was so tasty I wanted to share. A Big Boss Grill landed on my doorstep this week. I am not an infomercial shopper, really I’m not, but I saw the commercial for this one in the middle of the night…
Sweet of the Week #6, Chocolate Chip Cookie Sandwiches with Sarah
This week I made chocolate chip cookies that are vegan, free of refined sugar and gluten. What could possibly be left in such a cookie? Just the yum. I used the cookie recipe from the Babycakes NYC cookbook. You’re tired of hearing how great this cookbook is by now, right? The recipe in the cookbook…
