Decadent Deep-Dish Chocolate Chip Cookies with Dulce de Leche and Bacon with just a few sprinkles of sea salt!In The Goddess’s little world, there aren’t too many things better than Chocolate Chip Cookies.  Particularly fresh out of the oven, all gooey and creamy soft in the center, with just a hint of crispness around the edges.  Excuse me, but I need a moment to savor this thought.  Continue reading →

119I think it’s fair to say that most of us don’t think, “zucchini and chocolate…MMMMM.  Now there’s a combination made in heaven!”  I know I didn’t.  But guess what?  You should absolutely think good and happy thoughts about that combination, because this is an absolutely delicious cake.  Continue reading →

042 - CopyIt’s all about the sauce.  And this is a fantastic version, the Russian Sable of Fudge Sauces.  This is THE Fudge Sauce.  Okay, so you get that it’s really good, right?  The Flying Librarian makes a hot fudge that may, may be even better than this, but she refuses to give me the recipe…some nonsense about swearing on her son’s life, so she won’t give out the recipe.  Sometimes you just have to take the risk.  It’s fudge sauce.  Is she kidding?  Continue reading →

003I felt after the lean Heathen Gypsy Soup, you needed something to snarf down that  would put some staying power into that snow shovel.  So here’s the second posting for today.  Enjoy these.

Don’t you just love making bar cookies?  They are delicious and usually they go together so easily that you can make them before you go to work.  Blondies are one of the best bar cookies.  They are a cross between brownies and chocolate-chip-type cookie batter.  They are dense, sweet, chewy, moist and rich…they are decadent and you simply cannot eat just one.  Remember…life is short.  Have the second blondie….

129We had a terrific weekend.  Our son and daughter-in-law and her family shared their time with us.  They are great people and incredibly fun to spend time with. I made this dessert, as Jessica loves cake and she seems to have a soft spot for homemade vanilla ice cream (and for our son, The Middle Child).  This is the perfect dessert for this time of year.  It’s served warm, plus you have the warm glow from the bourbon (or rum, Cointreau, brandy, etc…whatever floats your lusty, boozy, dessert-boat!) to keep the chilly wind at bay.  Continue reading →
