Puff Pastry Pastrami Pockets

September 2, 2012 by overtimecook 16 Comments

You know those foods that are so quintessentially Jewish that everybody associates them with New York and the Jews? I'm talking about foods like K'nishes (remember how I posted a recipe to make those at home?) and a big 'ol pastrami sandwich on rye bread. With a pickle. And sushi. Okay, that last one isn't necessarily a Jewish food, but we definitely support Japanese cuisine as much as we do Chinese cuisine, in recent years. Well, here's a food that is Jewish through and through: deli roll. Honestly, I'm often surprised that this hasn't made it out of the Jewish world much, because deli roll is just plain delicious. But it's also kinda boring. At least if you're a Jewish gal from New … [Read more...]

Honey Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

August 30, 2012 by overtimecook 33 Comments

I think this post was supposed to have an introduction about how Rosh Hashanah is coming, and how you might want to make these delicious cupcakes instead of the traditional honey cake. But I got home from work at 9 pm tonight, then spent the last couple of hours filling an order for cake pops. (Didn't know I sell stuff? Well I do. Email me.)

But I want to share this recipe with you folks so anyone planning their Rosh Hashanah desserts can include these gorgeous little treats in their menu. So excuse me if I am being brief. Oh, also, if you aren't Jewish, don't let that stop you from making these. Honey is a lovely flavor and should … [Read more...]

Brown Butter Triple Chunk Cream Cheese Cookies

May 21, 2012 by overtimecook 18 Comments

In my haste to publish my post yesterday, I think I neglected to mention for the benefit of my non-Jewish readers that it's traditional to eat dairy on the upcoming holiday of Shavuos/t. And so, while I generally bake everything non-dairy, in honor of the holiday, I pulled out my dairy mixer, bought more cream cheese and butter than I care to disclose, and got to work salivating over the recipes I will make. Cheesecakes and the like are a no-brainer, but I really wanted to make a cookie. I have to live up to my name as The Cookie Girl. However, just using butter instead of my usual margarine didn't seem worthy of my (basically) once a year dairy fest. No, I needed more. A couple of minutes … [Read more...]
