Need a last minute dessert idea for your New Year's Eve festivities? This sweet treat comes together so quickly it gives new meaning to the phrase "easy as pie"! And it's so delicious that your fellow party-goers won't even notice how healthy it is!
This festive twist on the classic chocolate chip cookie is sure to please your friends and family this holiday season. I made a giant batch of them last weekend when Team Hot From the Kettle baked up holiday treats at Williams Sonoma and they were eaten in record time!
This soup is one of the dishes I made at the recent team Hot From the Kettle cooking demos at Williams Sonoma, and it was a big hit. It's hearty enough to served as meal, but in small amounts it also makes an excellent appetizer.
(Note: Team Hot From the Kettle will be back at the Willams Sonomo in Upper Monclair on Saturday, December 8th cooking up holiday treats!)
Halloween is just a few short days away, and with it comes all sorts of sinful sweet-treats. Most of America will probably be on a sugar high from Wednesday until January 1
st, when they resolve to quite those little white granules once and for all. But what to do when you want to partake in the autumnal festivities but you’re trying to get a jump-start on your healthy resolutions?
I recently went apple picking and then came home to find an abundance of apples in my co-op share, so my fridge is currently jam packed with ripe red fruit. I don’t mind though, as baked apples are a favorite dessert, and fall just doesn’t seem like fall until there’s an apple crisp baking in the oven and the house is full of the scent of the warm fruit mixed with cinnamon. This no-guilt version doesn’t have any refined sugar or processed oil, so it’s healthier than the average crisp, which means you can eat more of it!
Saturday was the first day of fall, my favorite time of the year! Signs of autumn are here with cooler days, trees full of colorful leaves and bright orange pumpkins on display in the grocery store’s produce department. I’m already looking forward to sipping warm mulled cider, making my first pumpkin pie of the year and taking my annual pilgrim to the orchards of Warwick, NY to pluck my own apples straight from the tree.
