Yup, it’s true. I have perfected the art of non-dairy pastry cream. I brought this to my brothers house for Sukkot. For a pareve custard, it was a great hit. Add this to your next dinner menu and you will not be sorry. You can make this with oranges or limes as well.
I heard about someone making chocolate red wine cupcakes on the food network. After doing a bit of research I discovered that red wine chocolate cupcakes are not as uncommon as one would think. One of my program director’s wives even told me she loves ‘em from a certain bakery here in Philadelphia (not kosher though). So I said, why not? I had an open bottle of red wine. I had cocoa. I didn’t have any pareve chocolate but I did have pareve marshmallows so I used those instead. I think that the chocolate wasn’t missed. These babies were moist and delicious. Enjoy!
Who doesn’t love Baileys? Its smooth, creamy, flavorful. But guess what? IT AIN’T KOSHER! I emailed Baileys headquarters and was like, “yo peepz, whats the official word?” And they were all like, “son, if our product was kosher it would have a hekhsher on it. Do you see a stamp of certification? Didn’t think so.” You can see a snapshot of their response at the bottom of this post. I’m sure there are other brands that are kosher, but I’m just too lazy to go searching for them. I’d rather make it on my own.
So what did I do? I said TO HELL WITH YOU, Baileys! And I went searching for a recipe. And I found several. They called for Chocolate syrup and almond extract. So the wheels in my head started turning. I’m already going through the trouble of making this at home (even though its so insanely easy it took less than 3 min to put together). How can I make this the most phenomenal ICL ever? And then it hit me. HOLY RUSTED METAL, BATMAN! I can use NUTELLA! Soooo good!
For those crazy guys who go hardcore at the gym and live on NO Xplode and Whey Protein, here’s a great way to break that diet and turn that 6 pack into a 4 pack. Eat a slice of cheesecake. You’ll feel better. Trust me. This cheesecake is rich, creamy, and delicious. you will love every bite.
Oh yea… I’m doing it. I’m dangerously dabbling with… CUPCAKES! These manly midgets are so damn good. Bourbon Cupcake. Cinnamon Bourbon ButterCream. Salted Bourbon Caramel. Not for children. You can use whiskey or cognac instead of bourbon if you’d like. Make the caramel sauce first so it has enough time to cool.

Paula Deen has Diabetes Type 2. So sad. And so totally obvious. I saw that coming before I saw myself as a dentist. Ok fine maybe thats not 100% true but still… a pound of butter and 4 cups of sugar in all her dishes? Seriously? Im surprised she hasn’t been diagnosed with Atherosclerosis yet… but then again, she was in the closet about her Diabetes for the last 3 years… She may not want to drop too many bombs on us just yet. She will. All in good time. Anyways, this no bake peanut butter pie is UHMAYZING! A few steps, but SO freakishly delicious. And really doesn’t take too much prep time, maybe a total of 30-45 min MAX. I may even go so far as to say its slightly healthy? Hardly any sugar. Also, one thing I will do next time that I didn’t do this time is that I would swirl some of the ganache in to the peanut butter mix as well, to give it a fudgeably delectable edge.
Hollaaaaa! This is one of my favorite desserts, and I totally made a delicious version of it. Its flaky, nutty, and juicy… kinda like myself. Full of flavor and pizzaz, perfect for any holiday, or even a weekday, this light and scrumptious baklava will have you licking your plate clean. I’d like to thank the ladies at Carmel on 108th St for helping me with the technique 
Two weeks ago I came home for Rosh Hashana. Knowing my mom’s love of chocolate covered candied orange peels, I decided to make my Chocolate Orange Cake for the first night of Chag. But I felt like a plain old cake wasn’t enough, it didn’t provide the beauty and respect the holiday – and my mother – deserve. So I decided I’d jazz it up. But how? It’s gotta be pareve, because our whole dinner menu revolved around meat. We’re Bukharian. We stuff anything that moves with meat. And then it hit me. Why can Tofu cream cheese only be used to shmear on bagels with some scallions, or else used to make a non dairy cheesecake?! Hello, Tofutti… I think you and I are gonna be better friends from here on. Oh and btw… Ina Garten is totally right. Adding coffee to chocolate completely enhances the chocolate flavor.
This is one of the most easiest and delicious desserts you’ll ever make. Light and refreshing, you’ll feel you can’t get enough.
