Creole Pralines by Amos Miller

Better than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy! It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the…

Easy Candied Pecans by Salad Foodie

A snack for the gods! Sprinkle atop your favorite greens, blue cheese topped or chicken salad. For holiday entertaining leave the pecans in halves rather than chopping, and serve in a festive bowl.

Custard Creme by Amos Miller

This is a dessert that knows no bounds! You can just about do anything with a great custard in your dessert repetoire.

You can add a sorts of flavors…

Ganache Chocolate Nutella by Amos Miller

Use this topping on any thing you wish to enhance with CHOCOLATE, from baked goods to ice cream. It will keep for a couple of days unrefrigerated - a couple of weeks in the cooler.

Raspberry Buttercream by Cupcake Vixen

The perfect compliment to my Raspberry White Velvet Cake. As with the cake, the icing can be flavored the same with chocolate or fresh berries. For the best results with the icing, use Crisco and not store brand shortening. Make sure to mix the icing at least 15-20 minutes for silky and creamy icing. If you intend to…

Papaya Halwa by chef bb

It’s an Indian-style dessert made of semi-ripe papaya. You already heard about a carrot and Moong Dal Halwa. My idea is to mix some health with the sweet. If you are more health aware you can adjoin jaggery as an alternative to sugar. I added sugar, khova (dry milk product); some dry fruits and fat in it.
