On a recent trip to St. Louis, I sampled some Gooey Butter Cake. Well, if I’m being honest, I did more than sample it – I couldn’t stop eating it! I had forgotten how unbelievably delicious this cake is. As its name implies, Gooey Butter Cake is a gooey confection that’s both buttery and sweet. [...]
During the past year I’ve experimented with making a couple trifles. My weakness for custard is what originally got me intrigued, and I’ve found that they are always a crowd pleaser! For our “All American” potluck I knew I couldn’t go with the traditional trifle, since, well… it’s not American! But when I came across [...]
You can’t get more All-American than chocolate chip cookies but I knew better than to bring something so basic to a potluck party full of foodies, so I made Ina Garten’s delicious chocolate mocha ice box cake that brings a whole new meaning to chocolate chip cookies. This cake is super easy to make at [...]
Normally, when one hears the phrase “off the grid,” it’s in the context of technology-less, remote destinations or hideaways. But when you hear it on the streets of San Francisco, “Off the Grid” has a much different meaning; one of ethnic food, inevitable over-indulgence and a vibrant social scene. Off the Grid is self-described as [...]
Situated in a historic building in midtown, Kupros Bistro is definitely the best food we’ve enjoyed in a long while. A group of us – three SacFoodies and four of our guests – had the pleasure of tasting nearly everything on the Kupros menu last week. Donna, who was one of the satisfied seven said [...]
Did you know May 15th is National Chocolate Chip Day? Yup, there is a whole holiday to celebrate the wonderful little morsels of goodness! Some claim that the first chocolate chips were created in 1937 by Ruth Graves Wakefield when she chopped up chocolate and then baked those pieces into cookies. Two years later, Nestle [...]
Crème brulee had always been a dessert that I would enjoy at restaurants, rather than at home. The smooth custard and perfectly golden layer of sugar just seemed like something better left to the professional pastry chefs. However, earlier this week I felt somewhat confident in trying to recreate restaurant-style crème brulee at home, and [...]
A child’s first birthday is a pretty big deal…especially for Mom! I must admit, I’ve been planning my son’s first birthday for about 10 months, so when the big day was nearly here, I threw on my event planning hat and went to work. First order of business was the theme, and there was no [...]
As I’ve mentioned before, I love breakfast foods. Whenever I visit my family in the Bay Area, I always look forward to having Danish ebelskivers for breakfast. My father’s side of the family is from Denmark, so I’ve been obsessed with ebelskivers for as long as I can remember. Ebelskivers are traditional Danish pancakes, shaped [...]
This Valentine’s Day, Red Velvet Cake Balls are the perfect treat for parties or as gifts. While browsing through some books at Barnes & Noble this past summer, I came across a colorful cookbook that caught my eye: “Cake Pops” by the popular blogger, Bakerella. The cookbook features recipes on how to make miniature cake [...]
