Christmas Baking: Slice & Bake Vanilla Sugar Cookies
The worst thing that can happen during the Holiday season is that you find yourself out of homemade cookies. That, and maybe your entire online order of Christmas gifts mysteriously vanishes from the face of the earth. True sob story, but I will spare you the sorry details. So we shall have some cookies, okay?…
Homemade Chocolate Truffles
This post made it just in time for Father’s Day…phew! This post has been in my mind for such a long time, but somehow the execution and posting bit got delayed a bit. This is actually part of the monthly Cooking With Friends themed blogging challenge. Ever since we decided to do no-bake, no-fuss desserts…
Cardamom-Vanilla Cake Topped With Nutella
It seems there is a special day for anything and everything under the sun. I am not one to follow these trends, so imagine my surprise when I learned that there was an entire day dedicated to Nutella! I give Nutella my fair share of love, but nothing over the top really. I like to…
Caramelized Banana Crepes
If you have been following me on Facebook or Twitter, you would have noticed that I am busy writing for some awesome magazines and creating recipes.

Whole Wheat Quick Apple Bread {With Butterscotch Glaze}
A loaf of freshly baked apple bread is the autumn/winter equivalent of banana bread. I have often talked about my love for banana bread and my habit of tweaking the recipe every time I bake one. Just around Thanksgiving, the stores are stocked with more apple varieties than one can imagine. Everyone has a favorite…
Chocolate And Pear Turnovers
Sometimes I find inspiration in the most absurd manner. Such is the story of these turnovers. Let me explain. (Disclaimer: The ‘story’ is pretty long and boring, so you may want to scroll way down if you came here for a turnover recipe!) Do you ever binge watch any TV shows on Netflix? My latest…
Easy Chocolate Muffins, Baking With Kids And A New Venture
Whoa! Do I have your attention with the unusually long and cryptic blog title? Good, read on then. Let’s start with the muffins and the whole ‘baking with kids’ thing first. I feel so lucky that Boy suggests a baking adventure on his days off from school. Lately, he’s been into rainbow-colored cakes or cupcakes…
Chocolate Biscotti (Made With Cocoa Powder)
Cakes, cupcakes and fruit crumbles are my favorite baked treats. Only because they require very little hands-on time apart from mixing up a few ingredients. Any recipe that requires me to handle some sort of dough makes me think twice. I dillydally, toying with the idea in my mind before I get around to actually…
Easy Dessert – Chocolate Covered Strawberries With Dulce De Leche
I have a confession to make. We are not big fans of Valentine’s Day. It’s not that we don’t love the idea of a valentine or have respect for the Saint… far from that. We simply refuse to go through the motions for the day. I don’t expect flowers, a shower of gifts and the…
