The most poetic berry crumble you’ll ever eat.
Desserts
When life gives you lemon bars…
Originally from a Junior League of Austin cookbook, this version has double the lemon goo as the original recipe. Feel free to omit the icing; this is the Pegster’s preference. But I needed extra sugar this month.
A Sweet Gig: Jordan Marsh & Key Lime Pie
This perfect summer dessert evokes sweet memories of my first paid job.
XXX Pumpkin Bread Pudding (definitely better than Jeannette’s Pies)
This guaranteed crowd-pleaser is the perfect grand finale to your Thanksgiving feast, and a wonderful departure from plain old pumpkin pie. Serve with sweetened whipped cream.
My mother’s love is a chocolate chip cookie
If being a homemaker were a sport, my mother would be an Olympic athlete. And instead of a gold medallion hanging from her neck, it would be the world’s most scrumptious chocolate chip cookie.
One-Bowl Brownies
Why anyone makes brownies from a mix is beyond me. Not only do they taste like cardboard and have the mouth-feel of a dry sponge, mix brownies don’t take any less effort than scratch brownies. Plus, the latter can be thrown together in a jiffy.
Doris’ Pumpkin Bread
Did ya’ll feel that? Yesterday morning, I walked outside to get the paper, and the temperature was, wait for it, in the seventies! This, coupled with the fact that those noxious cinnamon brooms are now polluting the entrance of every Publix in town.
