Vanilla Salted Browned Butter Rice Krispy Treats

July 23, 2014 By Laura 7 Comments

Rice Krispy Treats made with Browned Butter and Vanilla Salt

Vanilla Salted Browned Butter Rice Krispy Treats are a sophisticated and delicious twist on the childhood classic. I never make Rice Krispy Treats because I have no off button for them. Seriously, no self control whatsoever. So what made me think it was a good idea to step them up a notch with browned butter…

Meyer Lemon Cocktail Marshmallows

January 13, 2014 By Laura 9 Comments

Meyer Lemon Marshmallows with Tuaca Liquor

Meyer Lemon Cocktail Marshmallows are a fun treat for an adult party, but if you take the word “cocktail” out, the alcohol is minimal enough to serve to kids too (at least half of the booze is cooked off, if not more).  Right about now I should be sipping some other cocktail, more suited for…

Orange Marshmallows

Orange Marshmallows

Orange Marshmallows, with or without chocolate chips sprinkled on top, are great for eating out of hand and sending in a care package to loved ones (in colder, drier weather). Wow this late Thanksgiving threw me for a loop. Anyone else feeling like they have no time between now and Christmas? I nearly went into…

A Review of Marshmallow Madness: Kahlua & Cream Marshmallows

December 4, 2012 By Laura 6 Comments

Sometimes you get offered a book to review that you are really excited to try cooking or baking from–but just not that time of year. I am extremely moody when it comes to the seasons and food. I don’t like gingersnaps in the spring or summer. I used to refuse to eat Indian curries in…

Pumpkin Pie Marshmallows

October 1, 2010 By Laura 8 Comments

I have had an epiphany. An epiphany for me, mind you, not the world at large, because I am betting every single parent of a school-aged child already knows it. Kindergarten success has nothing to do with your kid and everything to do with how organized you, the parent, are. My children are doomed. Case…

Dulce de Leche Swirled Marshmallows

September 22, 2010 By Laura 13 Comments

I do lead an interesting life, don’t I? That’s 3 surgeries since the start of this blog and 11 total over my lifetime. The good news–in addition to the fact that I got the infected appendix 12 hours before it ruptured (that’s an approximate guess by the doctor), is that having removed now 2 organs…

Hi! I’m Laura and I am a recovering history major who has re-channeled all of my passion for learning about the history of different countries to learning about their food culture. That doesn’t mean every dish on here is strictly authentic, but it does mean that even my adaptations are not undertaken lightly. My goal is to show you–by doing–that these dishes are possible in your kitchen. Including desserts because I have quite the sweet tooth! Read More…
