Melty chocolate cake

June 23, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

Whew I’ve been so busy with class and the start of summer. So many things are going on. Now that my class is over, I can relax and focus on the tasty treats of summer.

This treat – a chocolate pudding cake – requested by my friend because it was his birthday last week.

Macaroons (Italian)

May 30, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

My friend and I have been talking about macaroons lately, and we keep reminding each other that they are not macarons (the ones mentioned in my last post). Sometimes we remember to say that the macaroons are Italian to distinguish the two.

Thierry Chocolates

May 22, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

I haven’t been posting as frequently because I was traveling and have been taking a class. I took a weekend to Vancouver, BC. My friend made a google map of food places to hit, and Thierry chocolates was one of them.

Angel food cake attempt

May 17, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

My F3 and I had a weekend day of debauchery on Saturday.  We went wine tasting and then went back to the Salem abode for dinner. The weather has gotten much warmer in Oregon and fresh fruits are in season. With my bag of oranges, I decided to make an orange “creamsicle” angel food cake that I saw in an East Coast cookbook.

Krantz cake

April 10, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

Another thing my Indian friend made from The “Jerusalem” cookbook by Ottolenghi and Tamimi, was krantz cake. I think she used walnuts instead of pecans though. I believe that krantz cake is kind of like a fancier babka. Making krantz cake is a lot like making cinnamon rolls except you half the dough and then braid it.

2nd annual girl scout cookie tasting

April 3, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

I decided to throw a fondue party to celebrate decorating my apartment and getting my life more organized. I invited my friend who did the girl scout cookie tasting with me last year and he bought a whole bunch of beer to use for our dessert course.

I hadn’t seen my friends from college for awhile and one of them suggested we do brunch. My friend Peter is the only one of my friends who is married. He has a nice wife and two children.

Beast Brunch

March 14, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

So there is this fancy restaurant in Portland called Beast, which I would say is the fanciest place I know in Portland.

I have been there for dinner and the price has gone up to $100 a plate (and that’s sans wine pairings).  Continue Reading →

Sinful layer cookies

March 6, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

I have been dying to make the seven layers of sin bars from the Sugar Cube cookbook (as if I don’t make enough things from there but they are always amazing).

However, this continued the trend for the Northwest meal I made for my friend.

Frosting

March 1, 2016Stephanie Landis Leave a Comment

It’s my sister’s birthday today, right before the leap year and I was told to bring chocolate cupcakes. I make chocolate cupcakes pretty often as you can see through the posts here, but it isn’t my birthday !
