Honestly, hands down my favorite PBC recipe for life…best part, no flour, no butter, one bowl to clean up and they have the perfect texture, every time! 1 cup crunchy peanut butter (I used Earth Balance coconut peanut butter) 1 cup creamy peanut butter 2 eggs 1 tbsp vanilla 1 tsp baking powder 1 cup white sugar* 1 cup brown sugar *(I would lessen the white sugar amount next time by half or maybe all) <Beat/mix well> Preheat oven to 350 degrees Prepare two baking sheets with parchment paper Roll/ice cream scoop the classic 1.5″ balls and fork stamp them Sprinkle a bit of sugar on top (I used sugar crystal sprinkles) or even a dash of finishing salt! Bake for 10 minutes.

I have been eating a lot of bananas lately but I just can’t keep up with the bananas left in the fruit basket at the end of the week!

I really only make rice pudding when I have leftover rice and tonight we had a ton! I just threw this easy dessert together in minutes using everything in my pantry…I didn’t use measurements- everything is to taste! Leftover rice (about 3 cups) 1 can of coconut milk White chocolate chunks (about 2/3 cup) Brown sugar (1-2 tbsp) White sugar (1-2 tbsp) Vanilla extract (1-2 tsp) Cinnamon, to taste Nutmeg, to taste Salt (just a small pinch) In a small saucepan combine all ingredients and cook on medium heat until it thickens. Remove from the heat, top with crushed walnuts/almonds and serve!
I have been trying to make this pie for the past couple of weeks now and have made at least three trips to the market for more apples and bacon- two things we apparently can’t keep in the house for very long! Soo this past Sunday, I was put in charge of a desert and decided to 100% commit… I walked down to Pike Place and picked up some bacon from BB Ranch & 4lbs of Pink Lady apples before we headed down to my parents house for dinner. Here is what you need: 1 packet of premade pie crust (2 rolls) 6 Pink Lady Apples- peeled and sliced 16 slices of thick cut bacon (recommend splurging on GOOD bacon) 3/4 cup white sugar…

A couple weeks back Ash, Maggie and I were invited to a crepe making class at Paris Eastside in Capitol Hill. Since that class we talked about making crepes and just have not got around to making them. Well the other night we hammered it out. Using Muriel’s recipe (copied below). We came up with 3 different crepe fillings…1) Scrambled eggs with King Crab and Chives 2) Crispy bacon with Fig and Chevre crepe 3) Cottage cheese with raspberry jam and parsley. Shopping list : 9 ounces of flour, 3 cups of milk, 3 eggs, Salt, 2 table spoons of butter, 2 table spoons of sugar, 3 big lemons, 3 eggs, 9 ounces sugar, 3,5 ounces butter, Oil, Confectioner’s sugar MARGUERITE’S ELEGANT HOME COOKING…

So this is my last day of my makeshift juicing cleanse. Have a couple confessions…although I did supplement my breakfast and lunch with juice, I couldn’t sacrifice my dinner. The first day was miserable, second day got a bit better and by the third I was comfortable with just the juice for the greater portion of my day. BUT everyday around 3pm I would literally go crazy insane….tired, irritable, delusional, emotional- the whole bit. SO, I had to snack on raisins, walnuts, fresh veggies or a little peanut butter to curb my appetite. I constantly drank water or jasmine pearl tea (one of my favorites) and naturally cut out my daily Nespresso shot in the morning. Things I noticed immediately…trimmer tummy, clearer/smoother skin and…

My version of Grandma Nancy’s Mint Chocolate Chip Meringue Cookies

Posted on December 18, 2012
My sister and I are very lucky to have three grandmas- my mom’s mom, dad’s mom and Grandma Nancy. Grandma Nancy has been my parent’s neighbor since before I was born and when we were kids, played a huge role in getting Maggie and I up and off every Sunday morning to Sunday School. Among other things, she is the very best Christmas Cookie baker in the world! Homemade fudge, rum balls, sugar cookies (a classic fav) and our absolute favorite- Mint Chocolate Chip Meringue Cookies!! We literally fight over who eats how many every single year :0) I tried to make these little delights last year and they turned out horrible but this year, I got much closer…I found the Winter Theme Dark…

We just got a new TV so we took advantage of the rainy lazy Sunday and spent it indoors. While Mark flipped back and forth between movies, shows, biographies, documentaries, etc, I spent most of the day next to him on the couch on my computer. As I was Pinteresting, I found a delicious recipe for Peanut Butter Marshmallow Squares…then I found out it was NO BAKE and I was sold :0) Oddly enough, I happened to have all the ingredients too, so a trip to the store was not necessary (and would have been a deal breaker). I added a little twist to the recipe by adding Nutella, vanilla and a little salt. What you need: – 1/2 stick unsalted butter – 1…

There are SO, SO many pumpkin spice recipes/products out there right now….everything from pumpkin spice chocolate chip cookies, breads, pies, custards and pastries to pumpkin spice ice-cream, dry rubs, teas, lattes, beers, chex mix and even Hershey kisses….you get it! (side note: The Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte…too sweet and heavy for me but today I perfected my order- Tall Soy Misto w/1 Pump Pumpkin Spice…try it! ) So in attempt to participate in the latest craze (and to satisfy Mark’s sweet tooth), I decided to make Pumpkin Spice Bread Pudding. What you need: – Brioche, cut into small bite-size pieces (about 5 cups) – 2-3 cups milk or heavy whipping cream (how sinful are you feeling?) – 3 eggs (if you like more bread…
