Flecked with espresso and flavored with pure vanilla, this is my favorite crème brûlée recipe. The brilliantly creamy custard can only be reached by cracking through a crisp caramelized sugar ceiling. The textural difference between the two layers is unbelievable and separates this dessert from every other. Simply put, crème brûlée tastes like luxury and has always been a baking bucket list recipe for me, and for good reason. One reader, Mary, commented: “My husband keeps inviting people over to our house for dessert so I can make this for them....

I love simple and quick recipes that can easily double as breakfast or snack, like blueberry muffin bread, blueberry almond power muffins, and banana muffins. Today’s Greek yogurt apple blueberry bread is no exception. You’ll appreciate the list of wholesome ingredients: Greek yogurt, honey, apple, blueberries, warm spices, and not much else. It’s made without refined sugar, similar to my Greek yogurt zucchini bread with a fun and flavorful fruity twist....

This is the kind of street food I crave – and just writing this post up now has made me throw out the idea of what we were going to have for dinner (which was steak fajitas btw) and replace them with this. I HAVE to eat them again. These are pretty large Bao buns (you can see in the pic below that they completely fill my hand), so one is probably enough for dinner....

Here’s Why High Protein Jello Mousse Works High Protein. I’ve been craving sweets lately which is a very slippery slope for me.

What Makes This Soup The Best Lentil Soup Ever I don’t know about you but, I’m in love with the Instant Pot Blender simply because it makes some of my favorite soups so much easier and quicker to throw together. Watch my review video if you’re curious about it. Indian Dal Soup isn’t one of those thick, chunky types of soup. For example, many of us love chicken noodle soup because it has plenty of broth but also has nice thick chunks of chicken with soft noodles to go along with it....

Well guess what? You can make Paneer in your Instant Pot, and under pressure at that. The beauty of that of course, is no baby-siting that boiling milk that’s just waiting sneakily for you to get distracted so it can go burn itself, leaving the whole house smelling of burned milk forever. If only you knew how often that has happened to me. It’s pitiful. Okay, I have a confession....

With Christmas around the corner, I figured I’d redesign this tart to resemble a wreath and be extra festive. I used the left over pastry to make the bow and simply cut out strips of pastry that I shaped into the bow and placed that on tart. I actually ended up using 2 large apples versus the ones listed in Irvin’s original recipe from the book below but if you want to fill up the entire tart and skip the wreath, stick to his amounts....

I originally published this recipe in 2014 and have since included a jam filling, plus new photos and a few more success tips. While they may look innocent, these pretty cupcakes pack a strong flavor punch. They’ve been my go-to summer cupcake recipe for over a decade because they’re always well received, but it wasn’t until recently that I decided to improve upon their pink perfection. The buttercream on top used to double as the cupcakes’ filling, but swapping it for raspberry jam/preserves lends a burst of intense fruitiness....
