When have you ever heard of such a thing? This cake takes no time to make at all - the batter is literally ready in a matter of minutes. I think this cake is best served cold so before you unmold it, allow it to cool for about an hour before chilling for another couple of hours. </span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870432028914537255.post-88991393522029008102017-12-11T00:57:00.000-05:002017-12-11T00:57:03.441-05:00What's the Best Surface to Bake Cookies On?<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

These days, roasting and sauteing are more common cooking techniques, resulting in creamy, caramelized, vibrant colored sprouts that haven't had all their nutritional value sucked away in a sea ofboiling water. </span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870432028914537255.post-81084941665557960812017-12-11T00:52:00.000-05:002017-12-11T00:52:23.775-05:00Double Chocolate Muffins<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

An unadapted version of this Asian-inspired Sloppy Joe recipe was shared with me a number of years ago by a dear friend Jill - she's a wonderful cook and we have similar flavor palates, for the most part. I say for the most part because we don't share a love for every ingredients. Cilantro for example - I love to serve these sloppy joes with lots of fresh cilantro, but she absolutely detests it. Spicy heat is another area where we don't always see eye to eye. I like things a bit spicier than she does so if you tend to not like as much spice as I do, go ahead and reduce the cayenne pepper by half (or eliminate it completely). </div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #232323; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 22px;">Frittatas are one of my favorite egg dishes for a few reasons. First, there's no need to make a crust - which is both a time saver and it reduces our carb intake. Second, you can fill them with just about anything - specific meat/veggie combos, leftovers from last night's dinner, forgotten items from the crisper drawer, etc. And last, but certainly not least, they're equally delicious served both warm and at room temperature. So that makes frittatas tasty, versatile, and convenient! I hope I've convinced you to give them a try.</span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870432028914537255.post-22175669861691864792017-12-09T00:41:00.001-05:002017-12-09T00:41:24.706-05:00Glazed Sriracha Bacon<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #232323; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px;">It's summertime here in Virginia, which means the days are hot and packed full of activity, leaving little time (or energy) for cooking. That's when a recipe like this is perfect - it's packed full of bold flavor and takes just minutes to make. Seriously, it comes together so fast, I didn't have time to take photos along the way! </span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870432028914537255.post-8932557599376215272017-09-02T08:46:00.000-04:002017-09-02T08:46:05.492-04:00Ginger Milk PuddingG<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #232323; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px;">Here's a fun dessert for everyone to try. It's a unique "pudding" made with 3 simple ingredients - milk, sugar, and freshly squeezed ginger juice. Just combine them and wait about 15 minutes for the magic to happen. You'll know it's ready when you can balance a small spoon on the surface. Kind of a cool party trick to entertain your friends and family. I hope you'll give it a try.</span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870432028914537255.post-21498144973765886582017-09-02T08:42:00.000-04:002017-09-02T08:42:03.922-04:00Onigiri<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #232323; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px;">One of my daughters is a Japanophile and she loves to introduce us to Japanese foods that are completely unfamiliar to us. Foods like these onigiri (oh-nee-gee-dee), a rice ball or sorts. They're kind of a rice sandwich filled with something savory like chicken or tuna salad. The salty filling pairs so beautifully with the rice and a strip of nori is wrapped around for flavor and color contrast. They're easy to make in the palm of your hand, but the triangular molds we used are even more fun. Here's how they're made.</span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-870432028914537255.post-57654235561277170612017-08-26T08:40:00.000-04:002017-08-26T08:40:11.347-04:00Fluffy Frittata<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #232323; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 16px;">Here's a simple egg frittata baked in a cast iron skillet. Despite containing 3 kinds of cheese, it's light and fluffy and I love the rustic presentation of serving it directly from the skillet. Start to finish, you can have it on the table is less than an hour.</span>Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06497226806665401448noreply@blogger.com0
