A couple of weeks ago I picked up an ice cream maker at the discount store. It was cheap, but it expanded my culinary reach by a lot. So I made this super simple lemon sorbet. After tasting it, I knew it would be the base of an amazing cocktail. So I had a few…
The other day I needed to pick up some supplies for my house guests so I stopped by Marshall’s. While roaming through the aisles I found a white box. A large white box. It had a couple red clearance price tags on it. Each one going lower and lower all the way to $29. So…
The other night I was sitting and watching TV and I came across a old Bill Cosby standup routine. After that, he was stuck in my head. The only thing that I could think of was him saying pudding. So I had to make some. Damn you Bill Cosby. So I went through the cupboard…
Valentines Day is fast approaching and I wanted to make a nice dessert for the occasion. I love chocolate and so do most people on Valentines Day. So I wanted to make a chocolate souffle. However, every recipe that I came across made 6-8 souffles. I only wanted two. So I did the math and…
It is really cold here in DC. I thought moving to the south would be cool, but this is way too cool for me. I know what you are thinking, but DC is technically the south as it is south of the Mason Dixon line. Since it has been so cold and snowy here in…

I was looking at the things that I have made over the past two weeks and I discovered something amazing. I made all of the fixings for a Brownie Sundae. Awesome chocolate brownies and homemade hot fudge. I did not make my own whipped cream but I will in the future.
So I have been getting a ton of emails and comments from my friends that I have failed to make a bacon dessert. So I decided to make chocolate covered bacon. Salty and sweet and 100 percent awesome!!! Before I started, I discussed the possibilities of chocolate bacon with my friend Jeff and his sister…
I love peaches. Now that peaches are in season I had to pick some up. One of my favorite desserts is crumble. You can make it with apples, pears, mangos, peaches etc… I love the soft fruit with the crunchy crumble with just a tad bit of vanilla ice cream. A nice vanilla bean ice…
The other day I had some friends over for a barbecue. I wanted to make a dessert but had no idea what to make. Then I decided to make a dessert pizza in the style of banana’s foster. While I did not flambe it, I still gave it the characteristic flavor. As you can see…
I have been doing a series of posts about my buddy Jeff’s barbecue. We made a full day out of grilling and sipping on Coronas. To end the night we made the ultimate smores. The recipe was developed by Jeff’s sister “Spud”. While not too far off from the original, it was tweaked enough to…
