As I've mentioned before, my husband doesn't have much of a sweet tooth. In fact, the one food weakness he has is deviled eggs. Not just any deviled eggs. These. I love my America's Test Kitchen Cookbook. Something about the detail and testing that encompasses each recipe appeals to my logical nature. I don't just… Continue reading America’s Test Kitchen Deviled Eggs

Happy Pi Day!
It's March 14th! That means math rules the day and we get to celebrate by eating pie! Yes, the third month, the fourteenth day is very special around here. For it is the glorious day we celebrate the tool that helps us calculate all circular things. 3.14 = pi. March 14th = pie. Here are… Continue reading Happy Pi Day!
Honeycrisp Dutch Apple Pie
A mournful thick rain is pelting my office classroom playroom window tonight as I sit typing with a belly that is full and happy. Full because it's stuffed with layers of perfectly spiced apple, buttery flaky crust and crunchy crumble topping. Happy basking in the glow of warm friendship and thankfulness. My girlfriend Rachel brought… Continue reading Honeycrisp Dutch Apple Pie
The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie
Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! I have never tasted a better chocolate chip cookie than this recipe produces.

The recipe comes from America's Test Kitchen and utilizes melted butter and a unique shaping technique to produce craggy stay-soft oversized cookies. You… Continue reading The Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie
Cornmeal Biscuits
I've made cornbread lots of times. And, have a great recipe for big giant fluffy biscuits. But when I made a white chicken chili a couple of weeks ago I just didn't feel like either of those breads were going to be just right to serve up alongside the chili. I went searching for some… Continue reading Cornmeal Biscuits

There are lots of cheesecake recipes floating around on Bakerlady, but I've never posted the classic New York Cheesecake recipe I absolutely adore. It's from America's Test Kitchen, who I always turn… Continue reading New York Cheesecake
Strawberry Dream Cake
I can honestly tell you that this recipe was a present for me. From God. No joke. Let me explain. Some lovely people I know just got married. A few days before the wedding I agreed to help out by making a giant cupcake for them to cut into for the smash-cake-in-your-face moment at the… Continue reading Strawberry Dream Cake
Blueberries and Cream Pie
Are you a crust or filling person? Pie eaters (I've found) fall into one of these two distinct categories. Those who tolerate the crust as a means for getting gorgeous amazing delicious filling into their mouths. And those who believe a flaky light crust absolutely is the best thing about pie. That the filling is… Continue reading Blueberries and Cream Pie
Crunchy Granola Bars
Granola bars are practically required for camping. Usually I just purchase the standard crunchy kind in the green box. But, as I was making my grocery list and going thru cookbooks, I saw this recipe and realized I had everything to make these already in my cupboard. Homemade, I'd have control of the ingredients and… Continue reading Crunchy Granola Bars
S’mores Bars
Baseball equals s'mores. Bear with me. I swear my thoughts make logical sense in my head. I'll try to help you keep up. Today, I went outside because I saw a bright yellow orb in the sky. I had to find out what it was. The sun! Fantastic! My husband used the opportunity to teach… Continue reading S’mores Bars
