A while back in my career when I was a consultant to Cuisinart, I met Marlene Sorosky. I came
to respect and admire her for her books. So much so, that when I had my bakery, I used several of the recipes from her book, The Dessert Lover’s Cookbook in my bakery. Continue reading
Looking for Thanksgiving Recipes? Here are some suggestions to get you from Breakfast to Dinner. I’ve pulled together a list I thought you might enjoy this year.
Happy Thanksgiving to all. And then we’re off to the Christmas holidays.
Chocolate Cranberry Quick Bread is all it promises. Keep a loaf in the freezer for a quick treat
Stuffed Cinnamon Bread French Toast with Orange Sauce is a breakfast or brunch treat like no other. The sauce is a variation of my recipe for crepe suzette.
Belgian Waffles with Berry Compote comes to you via the Food and Wine Festival at Epcot in Disney World many years ago. It’s as good now as it was then.
Scones with Strawberry Cranberry Jam– the scones are always welcome but the Strawberry Cranberry Jam is an easily made topping that really sets these apart.
Pillowy Soft Dinner Rolls are exactly what a Thanksgiving dinner needs to soak up the gravy.
The Story of No Knead Bread and Me is my version of this favorite. Make it, freeze it, enjoy it on Thankgiving.
Cream Biscuits – For a change of pace, these would be great and really, really easy. Freeze, defrost and warm. 
Cinnamon Raisin Bread – This is my favorite anytime bread.
Honey Roasted Vegetables are the perfect side dish for this holiday.
Cranberry Fresh Pineapple Relish is loved by people that don’t even like cranberries.
Chocolate Cranberry Curd Tart is the runaway favorite for these Thanksgiving Recipes. One look and you can see why!
Cranberry Pie with a Pleated Crust – this crust is the easiest way to make a pie.
Boston Cream Pie – A pie in name only, this is wonderful any time of the year.
Lemon Meringue Pie – Everyone’s favorite American Pie
Updated Pumpkin Mousse Torte is a perennial favorite that features a light pumpkin mousse with all the flavors of pumpkin pie.
Apple Crisp Cheesecake is an unusual take on a cheesecake but worth every minute spent on it.
I hope you enjoy these Thanksgiving recipes as much as we do.
This Butter-Rum Pecan Tart was published many, many years ago when Bon Appetit magazine was published out of Los Angeles. They printed one subject books gathered from the magazine in many different categories. This recipe was from their Pies and Tarts book. Although several of my recipes appeared in these books, this is not one of mine and I don’t know who it is from because they weren’t credited. Continue reading
This Cranberry Pecan Streusel Coffee Cake shouts out fall. My love of cranberries is known to those that follow the blog. I can hardly wait until they appear in the market.
While this is an easily made coffee cake, the one thing that makes it stand out when mixing is how the batter becomes very, very cold and stiff after the frozen cranberries are added. Continue reading
