The quest for steak supremacy (also, crash hot potatoes and crepes) This past weekend, Anders parents went away so we got to spend some good quality time together. Which, naturally, meant lots of cooking. I love cooking for him! He eats so much. It's great. My newest endeavour and quest (because I totally gave up on the Brötchen one, until I can get a real recipe from a real German) is mastering steak. I did it for Anders' birthday with a filet, which went fine, but I was told (later) that it could have used a bit more flavour. I also made an attempt of it a few weeks ago, one night before Anders was racing. But I was stressed or something and ended up overcooking the damned eye-of-the-round I had bought from the farmers' market (seriously, buying meat at a market is key; $3.59 for a steak!). And this weekend, I thought I would give it another try. We did some research on marinades before I got started and Anders went to do his workout. I ended up marinading it for about two hours in a...

Jump to Comments I made these banana cookie bars yesterday from Genesis of a Cook. They’re incredible! The banana mixture is caramel-y and sweet and the cookie was moist and chocolate-y. I’m going to be bringing these into work today, so hopefully they like them as much as I did! Recipe after the jump! Round up the troops. Put the sugar and butter in the mixer… And cream the butter and sugar together until smooth. Combine the dry ingredients thoroughly. And combine with the butter until the dough looks like that (it’ll be heavy and thick). And press the dough into a greased or lined pan and bake for 15 minutes. Mash up the banana. And combine with the sweetened condensed milk. In a separate bowl, combine the chocolate chips, coconut, and nuts (I chose almonds). Pour the banana mixture over the cookie layer when it comes out of the oven. Then sprinkle the chocolate chip mixture over the bananas and bake for 30 minutes. When you take them out of the oven, they’ll look like this: gooey... See less

The theme for this months Sugar High Friday being hosted at SpiTtoon Extra is Drunken Apples. I like this theme because local apples are in season and I have been getting different varieties from the farmers market each week. I have been looking forward to making an apple crumble for a while now. I ended up using the following apples in the crisp: 2 Honey Crisp, 1 Mutsu, and Jona Gold. For the drunken part I though that I would try adding a little Amaretto to the crisp. Amaretto is an almond flavoured liqueur that I recently tried. It added a nice subtle almond flavour to the crisp. The crisp was really good and the melting vanilla ice cream was the perfect topping. Ingredients: 5 cups apples (peeled, cored and sliced) 1/4 cup amaretto 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg 1/4 cup brown sugar 2/3 cup flour 2/3 cup rolled oats 2/3 cup brown sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/3 cup butter (melted) Directions: 1. Toss the apples with the amaretto, lemon juice,... See less

1. Preheat the oven to 180C/355F, and grease and line a 9 inch springform tin. 2. Pour the Guinness into a large saucepan, and add the sliced butter. Heat until the butter is melted, and remove the saucepan from the heat. Whisk in the cocoa and sugar. Beat the sour cream with the eggs and vanilla, then pour into the saucepan. Finally, beat in the flour and baking soda. 3. Pour the batter into the greased and lined tin, and bake for 45 mins to an hour. Leave to completely cool in the tin - it is quite a damp cake. 4. For the icing, beat the icing sugar and cream cheese together. Add the cream, and beat again until it's a spreadable consistency. Ice the top of the black cake until it resembles the frothy top of a pint of Guinness, topping with chocolate drops to resemble bubbles. See less

Mix flour, baking soda, and splenda in bowl. Mix milk, eggs, and vanilla in another bowl. Beat into dry mix roughly, so as to add more air to mix. Stir in cinnamon last. Serving size is 1/3 cup mix. Use PAM on skillet when cooking and sweeten with sugar free syrup and/or fruit! Serving size is one pancake. If you use less than 1/3 of a cup batter (like 1/4, or 1/6) you can have two for 100 calories! Smaller, but more! :) Number of Servings: 8 Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user AMROZ123. See less

I first hit upon the idea to make s’mores cupcakes when the marshmallows I put in my last cupcakes melted into oblivion. It would take a little ingenuity, but it was doable, I thought: graham cracker cupcakes flecked with chocolate chips and topped by frothy marshmallow frosting. It would be marvelous. When Cheryl of Cupcake Bakeshop and Garrett of Vanilla Garlic announced a creative cupcake event, my thoughts went immediately to my mythic dessert of my imagination. My first step was to find a recipe for vanilla cupcakes and doctor it into something grahamier. Chockylit’s recipes have always served me well, so I picked one from her website that served her well, the Vanilla Cupcakes from The Magnolia Bakery Cookbook. I crushed graham crackers, sifted the crumbs, and substituted them for most of the flour, hoping for the best. And so I followed the traditional steps, whisking together dry ingredients . . . . . . beating together butter, eggs, and sugar . . . . . . combining the two into... See less
