I make sweet things – and sometimes I share the recipes.

Almond Biscotti
March 11, 2013
Simple almond biscotti – I use cardamom (white cardamom in this case) to compliment the almonds. Fennel seed works well too. To use fresh cardamom, pull the husks off of 5 or 6 pods, and crush the little seeds from inside. Pre-heat the oven to 375° F Prep 2 sheet pans, with parchment. 1.0 Biscotti […]
bombe glacée – blood orange sorbet and vanilla ice cream
March 3, 2013
Bombe glacée is a super retro dessert, but it is pretty and tasty. It is a molded ice cream dish, usually a half dome (hence, bomb, I think…). This one is filled with vanilla “ice cream” (dairy free, made with almond milk, or coconut milk), and blood orange sorbet – kind of like a fancy […]
Brownies
