Orange Butter Cake
I’m not into making tiny cakes. When I make a cake, it needs to be big enough to satiate the sugar cravings of a growing manchild. (After all, how do you get calves that size?) So because the original recipe from the Downton Abbey Afternoon Tea Cookbook by Weldon Owen makes cakes fit for infants,…
Rum Maple Marshmallows
Delicate, creamy, and full of more fluff than my college literature professor, these marshmallows are the treat you never knew you wanted. My boyfriend’s sister was kind enough to relent that the famous marshmallow recipe she had been using for years actually came from The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook, by Dinah Bucholz. With this basic…
Lemon Cheesecake
It’s creamy, it’s lemony, it’s tangy. And it’s the only cheesecake you will be willing to cut off your arm for. Luscious lemon cheesecake that is hands down, damn delicious and gluten-free. Mon gâteau au fromage au citron! I was thrilled to flavor this cheesecake with lemon, since my boyfriend and I have been particularly…
Jazzy Gingerbread
What is Christmas without its dark, chewy, molasses-infused gingerbread cookie? Not a Christmas I want to be part of. Now this one was definitely a team effort, as my delightfully majestic boyfriend was inclined to try out his cut-out cookie and piping skills. And to be honest, he wasn’t that bad… Typically, I like my…
Russian Teacakes
I am not Russian. But my friend Courtney is. So with her tasting expertise, I prepared a gluten-free variation of the snowball-of-a-cookie that is the classic Russian teacake. This sounds more complicated than it is. To be honest, tweaking the average Russian teacake recipe was almost unnecessary for making it gluten-free. These cookies traditionally have…
Buckeyes
Lucky for you- and for me- this classic chocolate and peanut butter Christmas cookie is naturally gluten-free! The crisp crack of a buckeye’s chocolate exterior is a delicious pairing for its rich, peanut buttery inside. I can’t lie; these ones are my favorite Christmas cookie. In fact, if I had to choose to celebrate this…
Hershey’s Kiss Cookies
Christmastime is almost here, and while it is the beginning of the month yet, this is the prime-time to start your baking adventure for the holidays! I don’t know about you, but around this time of the year, I like to pretend that I lost about twenty years and I decide to fully embrace the…
The Perfect Pancakes
They are big. They are fluffy. And they are guaranteed to fool even the most hardcore pancake aficionados. We’ve all been waiting for it. The perfect gluten-free pancake that doesn’t fall flat in flavor or structure. And now we have it: I must admit, my boyfriend should be the one receiving credit for this one.…
Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies
Like the alliteration? You’ll like these cookies even more. A hipster twist on my mom’s classic recipe, these gluten-free chocolate chip cookies have just the right amount of softness as they do nostalgia- but no, I’m serious; they really are incredibly soft. The secret to my mother’s hidden gem of a recipe is pudding mix.…
Orange Scones with White Chocolate Drizzle
Look, I know what y’all are thinking. “How white do you have to be to make scones?” But before you get all caught up in discounting your British side, try these. As my “hunk of man” (thanks, Dave) remarks: “Excellent texture and crumb, a hint of moisture and it is absolutely decadent. A perfect sweetness…
