If you don’t keep them refrigerated, they may just “melt away.”When refrigerated, the centers have a…

Cashew butter is one of those luxuries I feel I will never take for granted – that and organic coconut butter. They are sweet, creamy, rich, luscious, and everything you’d ever want all at once and all on a spoon.So, when baked into a dessert, the decadence is taken to an entire new level.Now, we…

It’s been a long time since I’ve created an “Oh my good god” treat. It felt like I used to be able to over-the-top please and surprise more often.Perhaps I’ve lost it – or perhaps not.Well, I found it today. “Damn, woman! These are AWESOME! – You make pretty perfect cookies for a woman who…

Amidst the Cornoavirus scare, I felt anxious, alone, isolated, and frustrated.My coping mechanism: baking.I still had some preserved lemons calling my name in the fridge, and thought for a split second they might go well with cashew butter and dried apricots and a touch of cinnamon, baked into cookies.I think I was right: Cashew Butter…
