Nigella’s Chocolate Cake

Posted on January 7, 2013 by admin

As soon as I saw this recipe, I knew I had to try it out. It’s a dense chocolate loaf cake that I like best warmed with some vanilla ice cream although it’s also great as a breakfast treat. This cake is definitely worth a try, and it’s really quick and easy to make. It’s … Continue reading »

Chocolate Peppermint Cookies

Posted on December 21, 2012 by m&m

These crunchy chocolate mint cookies are a riff on Thin Mints, and I suppose if you dipped them in chocolate instead of drizzling, they would be exactly alike. I’ve always been a big fan of Thin Mints, and I will definitely be making these again. They’re a great addition to your holiday cookies, but they’ll … Continue reading »

S’mores Brownies

Posted on July 29, 2012 by m&m

 These are quite the decadent treat, combining chewy brownies with gooey s’mores. It’s definitely a little bit of a sugar overload, but fresh from the oven they are amazing and rich. The brownie batter is one of the easiest to make, and would be great by itself– just bake a little less to keep them … Continue reading »

Faux Milanos

Posted on June 17, 2012 by m&m

I found this recipe on Serious Eats and I couldn’t wait to try it because I love milanos. I know, they’re probably not that good for you and have tons of things in them that I can’t pronounce, but I love them. And that’s even more reason to try this recipe. It was also the … Continue reading »

My Favorite Recipes from 1 Year of M&M

Posted on May 8, 2012 by m&m

I suppose the most memorable recipe I’ve posted in the first year of Meatballs & Milkshakes has to be my Shaved Asparagus Salad because it won Best Spring Vegetable recipe on Food52 at this time last year. They have been nice enough to spotlight me here and I can’t say enough good things about their wonderful site. … Continue reading »

Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies

Posted on April 25, 2012 by m&m

Almost everyone loves chocolate chip cookies. And there are almost as many favorite recipes for them. I’ve been baking my way through the Flour Bakery Cookbook, and have made the peanut butter cookies, oatmeal raisin cookies, chocolate chip hazelnut cookies, double chocolate cookies, and raspberry blueberry muffins. My apple oat muffins were also based on Flour’s … Continue reading »

Recipes for Spring

Posted on April 16, 2012 by m&m

Spring is definitively here, and maybe we’re already into summer with temperatures hitting close to 90 degrees today. It’s time for some no-cook or quick cooking recipes so that I don’t overheat the apartment with the stove. One of my favorites from the cleanse earlier this year was this salmon with pepita pesto. The pesto is … Continue reading »

Chocolate Pudding with Sea Salt

Posted on December 23, 2011 by m&m

Pudding is so easy to make that it almost seems like more work to make it from a box. Seriously, you can make it so many ways and you should. It’s so delicious,  I might make more tonight. I added a sprinkle of sea salt to the top just for fun because I love the … Continue reading »

Broiler S’mores

Posted on December 3, 2011 by m&m

  S’mores really are not a recipe, more of a process. But nevertheless, they are definitely a bit of a guilty pleasure. I can’t remember the  last time I had smores, but they’re delicious. VERY messy. But a lot of fun. We used Hershey’s for the sake of authenticity, but you could use fancy chocolate. … Continue reading »

Tiramisu

Posted on November 18, 2011 by m&m

  Tiramisu has been one of my favorite desserts for…well…about as long as I can remember. My favorite is at a restaurant on the upper west side called Celeste. This is more of a traditional tiramisu, but I’m still working on their secret….I think some chocolate chips is part of it, but I’m not sure … Continue reading »
