cinnamon baked french toast

Posted on: July 30th, 2010 by Two Tiny Kitchens 4 Comments

Yum, yum, yum.  I think french toast is my favorite breakfast food.  And that’s saying a lot, because I LOVE breakfast foods.  From Peanut Butter Cap’n Crunch to egg white omelet, it’s all good stuff.  With this recipe you get the benefits of french toast, but you can prepare ahead of time and you don’t have to stand over the stove top while everyone else is eating and waiting for more.  That’s good.  (more…)

strawberry swirl cheesecake bars

You know, I like cheesecake, I really do.  I just never realize how much I like it until I’m eating it.  Therefore I never, ever make it.  Just doesn’t seem worth the effort (or the fat, to be blunt).  But these cheesecake bars looked too easy to pass up.  I felt they included all the good things a traditional cheesecake has to offer, rich and creamy with a buttery graham crust, but none of the hassle or intimidation.  (more…)

Did you know they changed the oatmeal cookie recipe on the Quaker Oats box?  It’s true!  I make them so often that I recognized the difference right away, less butter AND less sugar.  That’s just not right.  I was making these for a Kyoukai no Shokujikai (OK, really it was just our church potluck), but I hadn’t planned to post the recipe.  “It’s always available on the box,” I told myself.  (more…)

(sorta) homemade chocolate sandwich cookies

I’m going to keep this simple.  These are good.  Real good.  Easy and oh-so-tasty.  And they’re portable too, so fun to share.

raspberry vanilla cake with lemon curd filling

I apologize in advance for this long-winded explanation.  I am indecisive by nature, probably my biggest weakness.  This indecision can lead to disproportional amounts of anxiety over such mundane decisions as “paper or plastic?”  Obviously it’s going to cause a lot of problems when I’m baking.  (more…)
