Guest Post At work I often make really elaborate pastries and cakes. There are a million steps and a ton of dirty dishes. On my days off, however, I like simple recipes that don’t require too much effort. The fewer dishes I have to wash, the better. I developed these grown-up blondies featuring dark chocolate, …
Caramel Corn made with Beer Jelly courtesy of guest blogger and Twin. She proclaims to love beer (we both do!) and as I recall her love affair with beer began with rich and full flavored beers like stouts. I have a love of popcorn. I have a love of beer. It was only a matter …
Beer and bacon are served for breakfast in this Potlicker version of sticky buns. Such a treat! The beer jelly imparts a mellow beer flavor and is less sweet than using cane sugar alone to make sticky buns. Try making these with Apricot Ale jelly and white sugar for a light and fruity taste or …

My Tall Dark & Handsome has a sweet tooth, and don’t you know that one of my greatest pleasures in life is making that man smile. When I found this cupcake idea on Pinterest I thought they would be perfect for his sweet tooth, my beer tooth and our beer jelly. As expected the beer …
Beer Jelly Wings are literally finger licking good. They are sticky and sweet and the caramelized sugar turns a bit crunchy. The best part is that just as you are about to sink your teeth into juicy wing, the faint smell of beer or toasted hop mash wafts up. For Super Bowl this year, I …
In the refrigerator the other day I found myself face to face with a beautiful bag of bagels that were, unfortunately, not tender to the touch. I had but one thing in mind. Slice those babies thin and bake ‘em into crispy submission! When confronted with old and hard bagels, I make Bagel Chips! Slice …
It's like veggie mac.... but sublime. This macaroni and smoked cheese came about from a combination of different recipes I had been holding on to. What I think really makes it stand out is the combination of cheeses and the cauliflower although others have argued that the noodles help bring this macaroni to its greatness. …
