Peanut Butter Mousse with Chocolate Pretzel Crumbs

November 3, 2015 by overtimecook 24 Comments

This dessert is pure decadence: Rich and creamy Peanut Butter Mousse with delicious sweet and salty chocolate pretzel crumbs.  Do you receive the Overtime Cook newsletter? Full of recipes, kitchen tips and deals and more! Click here to signup. As a professional recipe developer who's also a big worrier, I find myself worrying about a lot of things. For example, when I posted this roast recipe for the holidays, a TON of people told me they were making it. So naturally, I worried. What if I copied the instructions down wrong and caused people to ruin their $60 piece of meat?! Thankfully, the roast got RAVE reviews, and I got to stop worrying, but you get the point. I worry. A lot. But … [Read more...]

This quick pomegranate roast is juicy, full of flavor, and easy to make! ***Before we start – have you signed up for my email newsletters? You’ll get new recipes, cooking tips, menu suggestions, kitchen deals  – and more! Click here to signup.*** Can we talk about meat for a minute? I generally make a variation on this type of roast: Saute tons and tons of onions, then smother the meat with it and pour wine over the whole thing. Cover tightly and bake until soft. It's pretty simple, and always delicious. But here's the thing. Who has time to sautee tons and tons of onions? Not me, that's for sure! So today's roast is dedicated to those of you who don't have lots of time. It'll take … [Read more...]

Ultimate Whole Wheat Challah Recipe

August 31, 2015 by overtimecook 43 Comments

Get ready for Rosh Hashanah or Shabbat with the Ultimate Whole Wheat Challah Recipe. This post is sponsored by Red Star Yeast. Thank you for supporting the brands I love and use in my own kitchen, and that help me continue to share free recipes with you. From the day I started this blog, there's one recipe that I've gotten request after request after request for. And somehow, the time never came to share said recipe. Until today. Let me back-track. When I'm dieting carefully, one of the things I avoid completely is white flour, which means that I've eaten a whole lot of whole wheat bread over the years. After trying numerous kinds, I discovered that most whole wheat bread falls into one … [Read more...]
