Mini Cookies And Cream Cupcakes
Here's an important thing to know about the non-dieting Miriam: she loves ice cream. And she loves cookies. And she thinks the combination of the two is about as awesome as it gets. Here's an important thing to know about the dieting Miriam: she really wishes she were the non-dieting Miriam. And a part of her must be an idiot to make something like this that so desperately tempts the non-dieting Miriam to come out of hiding. Am I confusing you? Let's sum it up like this: I suddenly realized that I have never posted a cupcake recipe here, and can't think of a more awesome cupcake to get things started than one that basically imitates one of the world's most delicious ice cream flavors: … [Read more...]
Tiny Pecan Pies and a Pie Crust Tutorial
Until a couple of months ago I was absolutely terrified of making my own pie crust. Any and all desserts that involved pie crust started with one out of the freezer aisle in the grocery store. Then one of my coworkers asked if he could order a pie as a treat for his family for Rosh Hashanah. My first instinct was to say no, after all, I had never made a pie crust, and didn't want to try it for the first time on a customers. But as I have mentioned before, I never like to turn down a customer, so I did some research, and I said yes. I explained that it was going to be my first time making a homemade pie crust, and he agreed. I spent a long time searching the internet for advice and … [Read more...]
Mocha Cheesecake with Oreo Crumb Crust
Note: the pictures on this post don't do the dessert justice- at all! Please trust me on this one- this recipe is delicious, easy to make and even impressive. I've mentioned before that I occasionally get cooking or baking ideas into my head and can't get them out- until I find out how good they might be. Yesterday's Eureka moment came while I was at work. (Yes, on a Sunday. No, I am not insane, nor a workaholic. Ok...maybe a tad of both.) It wasn't until later at night that I was able to get into the kitchen to start tinkering. That's when the first disaster struck. Ok, it was (thankfully) the only disaster, but it was pretty bad. The lid to my food processor was missing. Yes, the very … [Read more...]

Sweet Lemon Lukshen (Noodle) Kugel
I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to describe a kugel to my non-Jewish readers. I know I am not the only one. I guess Kugel is one of those quintessential Jewish foods that have slowly seeped into the non-Jewish culinary world, but not nearly enough. A kugel is generally a side dish of sorts. It can be sweet or savory, and served with almost any meal. In some observant Jewish houses, (such as mine!) it doesn't feel like Shabbos (Sabbath) without potato kugel (a casserole of sorts, featuring finely ground potatoes). In many cases, especially for a holiday like Rosh Hashanah, where the tradition is to eat sweet foods, a sweet kugel is a great accompaniment to a meal. For my Jewish … [Read more...]
Two Colored Squash with Shallots and Herbs
So it turns out this Overtime Cook idea is harder than it sounds. Does it sound hard? It's harder. I get home at about 7:30 pm on a good night. By the time I cook and eat supper and start my baking, it's late. I finish at a ridiculous hour, then try to photograph my food, clean up, shower and get a few minutes of sleep before I wake up at 6:30 the next morning for another round of this. Whew. Just typing my schedule is getting me tired. Time for another super easy recipe, don't you think? Let's talk squash. Zucchini, to be precise. I'm pretty sure zucchini is my all time favorite vegetable. I love it's versatility; one vegetable can turn into a delicious side dish off the … [Read more...]
S’mores Brownie Bites
A couple of weeks ago, an idea popped into my head. S'mores. In a brownie. Yum. Yeah, I can be simple that way. My idea was simple: keep the original format of the smore, but swap out the chocolate for some rick gooey brownies. So I googled it and googled it, but I couldn't find anything like that. Sure, folks made smores brownies, but they usually entailed a mix of graham crackers and marshmallow on top of a brownie. That isn't what I am looking for. So I made my own version. In the interest of full disclosure, it took me a couple of tries to get the recipe perfect enough for my liking. I did it though. So effectively that my coworkers all get this dreamy look in their eyes when they think … [Read more...]
Healthy Quiche Cups
Here's a secret: until a couple of days ago, I'd never tasted a quiche. As I've previously mentioned, I'm a perpetual dieter. As such, the typical fattening quiche baked in an even-more fattening crust has always been off limits to me. Until recently, when I was bored of everything I usually made, and decided to get creative. "I'll make a low fat quiche," I told myself. "And who needs a crust anyway?" Erm, me? But I was hungry. So I mixed up the batter and was about to dump it into a muffin pan, when I noticed some whole wheat wraps lying on the counter. Thank heavens for people who don't put things away. "This could work," I thought excitedly. "And it won't break the … [Read more...]
