After a loooooong hiatus, I return to present you the ever so humble Best Coffee Cake. See what I did there, I said humble but this is (IMO) the very Best Coffee Cake. Why is it best? Because of the crumb topping. I have used this crumb topping on a LOT of other baked goods … Continue reading Best Coffee Cake
Just for this recipe I wish blondies was called chondies because then the name of this little sweet thang would be Cherry-Chocolate Chip Chondies. Doesn't that roll off the tongue a lot better? Well, even if we can't name it chondies, if you love cherry-chocolate combo you should definitely give it a try. It's super … Continue reading Cherry-Chocolate Chip Blondies
Do you like bananas? How about pineapple? Some coconut? Rum? Well you should get a pina colada then. This cake is not quite pina colada but I absolutely can imagine it as such if you maybe put some coconut flavoring in the frosting and soak the cake in rum. That actually will probably make for … Continue reading Hummingbird Cake
It's berry season! Besides strawberries, I love blackberries the most. Some months ago, a good friend sent us Graeter's ice cream and one of the flavors we received was Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip so this is a recreation of that with one potential variation. When Ryann tasted this, he was instantly transported to summer memories … Continue reading Bamma’s Blackberry Ice Cream
This recipe looks much more complicated than it actually is, so please do not be intimidated by the name, the steps, or the ingredients but be intimidated by the method. Just kidding. It's really not that bad. The tying part is tricky but even if you just randomly tie it up, it'll turn out just … Continue reading Cheesy Stuffed Flank Steak
You know how retail stores are always early with Christmas decorations? Well, look who beats them now. It's Christmas in May, baby! 🙂 To be honest, there is nothing about this quiche that would scream Christmas but it is called such because it's a Christmas tradition in our home. Ryann's mom always makes this around … Continue reading Christmas Quiche
A couple months ago Ryann challenged me to create a Bacon Cake from the video game Freakpocalypse. Since his birthday was coming up, I thought it'd be good to try it out. Mind you he did not want a meat cake with mashed potato frosting, etc. He really wanted a cake with bacon. So I … Continue reading Bacon Cake
I booked a swimming pool yesterday. Not an AirBnB with a pool, but just the pool part of someone's home. Sounds weird? Yeah, I thought so too but I wanted to throw a little get together for Ryann's birthday and be safe about it so outdoors it is! And I figured a pool party would … Continue reading Strawberry Shortcake
Fun fact: there is an Indonesian version of shepherd's pie. Like the famous English playwright wrote: a meat and potato casserole by any other name would taste as delicious. What's that? He wrote about a rose instead? Oh but meat and potato casserole is so much better! Well anyway. The Indonesian version of shepherd's pie … Continue reading Shepherd’s Pie
If you are a longtime watcher (first-time caller) of Ryann's channel, you may be familiar with #hideyoshame and today's recipe is the origin story of that hashtag. If you're planning a family Easter brunch, do consider this one because it's fairly easy and you can even bring it on a picnic if you want to … Continue reading Scotch Eggs
