Melt In Your Mouth Blueberry Cake

Posted on July 29, 2020 by sparecake

Another one from the Amish cookbook, but this time not enough to feed 800 people at once. Actually, they say it’s often served crumbled into milk, so if you’re eating it alone, slowly enough that it got stale, you could … Continue reading →

Posted on July 15, 2020 by sparecake

I had a marshmallow meringue pie topping saved from a cookbook I’d borrowed a while ago that I wanted to try, and it’s 1 billion degrees so the pie needed to be no-bake… getting chocolate peanut butter seemed like a … Continue reading →

Posted on July 1, 2020 by sparecake

Going to share a few things that maybe aren’t worth their own posts today. First up: Spice Cabinet Chicken Rub Am I kind of sharing this just because I’m pleased I finally found a use for the MSG I bought … Continue reading →

Outrageous Chocolate Chip Cookies

Posted on June 24, 2020 by sparecake

So, first off, ‘outrageous’ was part of the title in the cookbook I got this from, it’s not my personal judgement. Secondly, this cookbook was an Amish cookbook, and the Amish don’t seem to mess around with volume of food. … Continue reading →

I bought ingredients for last week’s layered chocolate dessert knowing I’d need to use up some cream and the chocolate syrup, so it was a 2-dessert plan, along with this cake. It was, I’m going to say, a very good … Continue reading →

Chocolate Syrup Layered Dessert

Posted on May 13, 2020 by sparecake

A surprisingly light chocolate dessert, this seems like maybe it should be chocolate cheesecake-y, but it’s not nearly so dense as that, even without counting the whipped cream layer. Good, though!! Ingredients: Crust: 60 Nilla Wafers (regular sized), crushed 1/3 … Continue reading →

Marlow

Posted on April 29, 2020 by sparecake

A marlow is an old, frozen dessert made in part by melting marshmallows. My guess, then, is that marlow is a contraction of marshmallow, but I can’t promise that that’s correct! I’ve made both chocolate marlow, which tastes like a … Continue reading →

A big, moist banana cake with a bit of chocolate for dessert-y-ness. I considered putting chocolate frosting on top, but don’t think it needs it. Ingredients: 2 cups packed light brown sugar 1 cup unsalted butter, room temp 4 eggs … Continue reading →
