  Chocolate Dipped Peppermint Shortbread Cookies

  Posted at 9:19 am by StephMo

  Jan 31st

  You will be singing “I’m in the mood for love, simply because you’re near me” when you bite into one of these cookies, because you will be in LOVE with them. These cookies may look like your average sugar cookies, but they will give you a buttery surprise when you bite into one. Since we are approaching Valentine’s Day, what better shape to make them in but hearts! No matter what shape you decide to make them in however, the recipient of these cookies will definitely know you love them!

  You may be wondering what the difference is between a sugar cookie and a shortbread cookie. Sugar cookies are sweeter and crispier, while shortbread cookies are softer and butterier (is that a word?), or should I say more buttery? Regardless of the correct spelling and grammar, they melt in your mouth.

  Ingredients:

  3/4 cup sugar

  1 cup butter – softened

  3 oz. block cream cheese – softened

  1 egg

  1 tsp. peppermint extract

  3 cups flour

  In a large mixing bowl combine sugar, butter, cream cheese, egg, and extract with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.

  

  Add flour and beat until mixed. My dough looked like course crumbs as you can see, which I just used my hands to shape together.

  

  Divide the dough into two and wrap with plastic wrap. Put in the refrigerator for about an hour or until it has hardened and is easy to work with.

  

  Roll out the dough on a floured surface until about 1/4″ thick. I used about half of a half of the dough at a time, or a quarter of the total dough. Cut into shapes and place on ungreased cookie sheets.

  

  

  Bake at 375 degrees for about 7 minutes, or until edges are just slightly brown. Remove from cookie sheets immediately and cool on wire racks.

  I did not have any melting chocolate wafers, so I decided to use chocolate chips and butter. Which I have to say was not as easy to work with, it was a little too thick. You can use whichever you prefer.

  For these cookies I melted 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of butter in a small saucepan over low heat while stirring frequently.

  

  Dip half of the cookie in the chocolate and put on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Cool in refrigerator until chocolate is hardened.

  Easy Mexican Taco Pasta

  Posted at 10:01 am by StephMo

  Jan 29th

  Taco Tuesday had a little bit of a twist yesterday in my house. It was actually a coincidence, I didn’t even realize I was making a taco type meal on a Tuesday. But go me! I probably shouldn’t have admitted it wasn’t planned so it would look like I have my act together much more than I really do. If you love tacos and pasta, then you will love this recipe. It is the best of both worlds. Oh, and did I mention it is incredibly easy?

  I have been making this pasta dish fairly often for years. Last night I used whole grain pasta as you can probably tell from the photo. Personally, I think it tastes better with regular pasta, but the other flavors are so great that it was excellent with whole grain as well. If you are looking to cut calories, this is a perfect recipe. You can use ground turkey, low fat sour cream, and reduced fat cheese (I wouldn’t use fat free because it won’t melt properly).

  My children even love this recipe despite the fact that there are always little piles left on each of their plates. One plate has a pile of beans and olives, and the other plate has a pile of beans, olives, and scallions. I used to get annoyed, but now I just giggle to myself at the effort that goes in to picking around everything.

  Ingredients:

  1 lb. ground turkey or beef

  Taco seasoning packet (I prefer McCormick)

  1/2 cup (or more) shredded Mexican cheese

  1/2 cup sour cream

  1 cup chopped tomatoes

  1/2 cup chopped scallions

  Small can of sliced black olives

  1/2 cup black beans

  1 lb. pasta

  Cook pasta as directed on package. While pasta is cooking, cook the meat in a pan until done. I use ground turkey instead of beef, but you can use either. Drain any excess grease. Add taco seasoning mix and water as directed on package. Cook on low-medium heat for about 5 minutes.

  

  When pasta is cooked return it to the pan after draining. Add taco meat, shredded cheese, and sour cream. Stir well.

  Stir in remaining ingredients. The black olives are mixed with the beans in the photo in case you were wondering. I really recommend using scallions and not substituting another type of onion, it makes a big difference with the taste.

  

  That’s it! Now just serve and enjoy. So easy and delicious! It tastes great with a little added hot sauce on top too, we prefer Cholula or Red Devil.

  Flour Bakery in Cambridge

  Posted at 7:14 pm by StephMo

  Jan 27th

  I had the BEST day today, and not just because I got to try a new restaurant, but I got to try it with my daughter. I am one of the luckiest mothers alive with a daughter in college only 3.7 miles away from our house. If that wasn’t good enough, she has Mondays almost free of classes and wants to spend them trying new lunch spots with me!

  My daughter’s school and our home is just North of Boston. You really can’t ask for a better location to try new restaurants, there are thousands. I’m guessing at thousands, but it’s really big however many it actually is. Since I am the type of person that goes to the same favorite places over and over, the idea of trying something new every week is so exciting.

  We decided our first restaurant to try would be Flour Bakery in Harvard Square. They have three locations in Cambridge, but we headed towards Harvard Square not just because it was the closest to her school, but because it’s Harvard Square. If you have never been to Harvard Square, make sure to put it on your bucket list. It is such a fantastic spot filled with restaurants, shops, and of course that University you may have heard of, Harvard?

  Parking in Harvard Square isn’t always the easiest to find, but we were quite lucky to find a parking spot pretty close to the restaurant. I was also able to have a very interesting discussion with an eccentric gentlemen sitting on the sidewalk near where we parked about the crazy bike lanes recently installed. My daughter didn’t seem as enthralled with the conversation as I did, but our eccentricity is what makes life interesting, right?

  Flour Bakery was quaint and bustling. We arrived just before the peak lunch rush and were able to find a little two person table where we sat, ate, and chatted for hours. We each got a sandwich which we really enjoyed. My daughter rated hers an 8.5, and I rated mine a 6.5 only because of the bread. I just do not like bread with tough crust, and their multigrain bread was that kind of bread. The soft part of the bread was very good, but the crust just kind of ruins it for me. Next time I go there I will request a different bread and then I am pretty sure my rating would also be around an 8.5.

  My daughter ordered the Applewood Smoked Bacon sandwich which consisted of bacon, arugula, tomato, and mayo on focaccia toast. I ordered the Smoked Turkey Sandwich which consisted of turkey, cheddar, cranberry chutney, and apple dill slaw. The contents were delicious! It was just my own personal dislike of tough crust that made me dislike it somewhat. I am actually really looking forward to going back and either trying something else like the Chicken and Broccoli Rabe Panini, or Roast Chicken with mashed avocado and jicama (if you have read my fish taco blog you know I love jicama), or the Smoked Turkey again but on different bread. Maybe focaccia, that sounds so good!

  

  As you can see from my photos they include a strange little vegetable “salad” of sorts on the dish. Well, my daughter’s had more of a salad than mine did, mine was actually pretty sad. Some people like my husband would probably think that was lovely and delicious, but my daughter and I looked at it like it was an absolute waste of food because why would anyone want to eat that with their sandwich. I know, we aren’t proud of that but it’s the truth. Where are the chips?

  

  They also had some wonderful looking salads on their menu, as well as baked goods.

  Overall the Flour Bakery was a thumbs up for us and we would definitely recommend it to others!

  S'more Pie Please!

  Posted at 9:18 am by StephMo

  Jan 27th

  The other day when I made Key Lime Pie, my son loved the crust so much that he asked if it were possible to make a s’mores pie with the graham cracker crust. It sounded like a great idea to me, so a s’mores pie was what we made! My children pretty much have me wrapped around their fingers and get whatever they ask for, with food anyway.

  

  One of our favorite things to do in the summer as a family is sit by the fire pit and make s’mores. This pie has that wonderful chocolate, graham cracker, and marshmallow taste but you don’t get sticky fingers eating it. Well, if you decide not to use a fork you probably would. I am one of those people that ends up with marshmallow in my hair, and basically all over myself so this was a nice way to have “s’mores” and stay clean.

  I am also one of those people that always seems to set my marshmallow on fire, which I do not enjoy. If you are like me and prefer a browned marshmallow as opposed to black, then pay very close attention to this pie once it is under the broiler. I am pretty sure that if you leave this pie under the broiler for too long you could still set them on fire, and it’s much better to do that outside then in your kitchen. As I was putting the pie in the oven I told my husband to get ready to do something if it catches on fire, his response was “Do what, blow on it?”. Yeah, I really hadn’t thought about what exactly to do if that were to happen, haha.

  Originally I thought of chocolate pudding to make a cold non-bake pie, but then I started thinking more about it and decided to go the route of an actual pie.

  Then I thought of heavy cream with chocolate, which would make it more of a ganache over the crust which would be delicious but not the type of pie my son was thinking of. So I decided to add some eggs and vanilla so it would puff up into an actual chocolate pie with marshmallows on top. Yum!

  Of course, my son wanted me to use the small marshmallows which took much longer to put on top that the large marshmallows would have. He wanted it to look like the sweet potato casseroles you see at Thanksgiving. Which is funny because he doesn’t like sweet potatoes, and I never make that casserole. He helped me make the pie and it was fun to do together regardless.

  Ingredients:

  9 inch graham cracker crust

  1 cup heavy cream

  8 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips

  3 eggs

  1 tsp. vanilla

  Marshmallows

  Bake graham cracker crust at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

  Heat 1 cup of heavy cream until boiling and pour over 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Be careful not to burn the cream. Let sit for a few minutes and then whisk until chocolate is melted.

  

  Add 3 eggs and 1 tsp. vanilla and whisk until combined.

  

  Pour into graham cracker crust. You can either use a store bought crust, or homemade which I have done. Keep scrolling for crust recipe.

  

  

  Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until it is set. Let cool.

  

  Once cool, top the pie with marshmallows. And put in under the broiler watching it very carefully. It was done and smoking in about 30 seconds.

  

  Can you see the smoke? It browns so quickly, and if you aren’t watching it will catch on fire.

  

  I have to admit, I really like the way it looks with the mini marshmallows!

  

  Now for the graham cracker crust recipe:

  1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers

  1/3 cup sugar

  6 tbsp. melted butter

  Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl.

  

  I use a chopper to crush the graham crackers, but if you don’t have a chopper you could put them in a plastic bag and crush with either a rolling pin or a mallet.

  

  Press mixture firmly into a 9 inch pie plate.

  

  I use my hands and the back of a measuring cup to press the crumbs into the pie plate. The sides are a little bit of a challenge.

  

  Then as I mentioned previously, before using with any pie recipe be sure to bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

  So rich and chocolately and just delicious! Even though you really only need a sliver, you will want s’more 😉

  Key Lime Pie – Oh My!

  Posted at 4:09 pm by StephMo

  Jan 24th

  I have not made this recipe in years, and I can’t believe how many opportunities were missed when I could have made this delicious pie. I actually just forgot about it. My children aren’t big fans of lime and I just started making other things. Now that I have dug out the recipe again, I will be putting it back up at the top of the list. It is even better than I remember it being – wow! In your best Southern accent repeat after me, “Everybody love key lime pie!”. They sure will with this recipe!

  I am not sure where this recipe came from, I have it written on a piece of paper. Paper I don’t even recognize, so it was from quite some time ago.

  You can either use or store bought graham cracker crust, or make your own. I have included the crust recipe I use after the recipe for the pie. The homemade crust is really worth the extra effort, it is just so good!

  Ingredients:

  9 inch graham cracker crust

  5 egg yokes

  1 14oz. can sweetened condensed milk

  1/3 cup key lime juice

  1 cup heavy cream

  1/4 cup confectioners sugar

  Bake pie crust for 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees. Let cool. Even a store bought crust should be baked, not just homemade.

  Whisk egg yokes, condensed milk, and lime juice until smooth. Pour into crust.

  

  Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until set. Cool, then refrigerate for 4 hours.

  

  Beat heavy cream and confectioners sugar with an electric mixer on high until it thickens to whipped cream. Do not over beat. Spread over pie. Keep refrigerated.

  I grated some lime peel onto the top to make it look pretty 🙂

  

  

  So creamy, and absolutely delicious!!

  Graham Cracker Crust Recipe:

  1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers

  1/3 cup sugar

  6 tbsp. butter – melted

  Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl.

  

  I use a chopper to crush the graham crackers, but if you don’t have a chopper you could put them in a plastic bag and crush with either a rolling pin or a mallet.

  

  Press mixture firmly into a 9″ pie plate.

  

  I use my hands and the back of a measuring cup to press the crumbs into the pie plate. The sides are a little bit of a challenge.

  

  Then as I mentioned previously, before using with any pie recipe be sure to bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes.

  Pie really does fix everything!

  Ballet Slipper Cake

  Posted at 1:09 pm by StephMo

  Jan 23rd

  Ok, ok, I know the photo quality is horrible and the cake is not the best looking. I made this cake 15 years ago when my daughter was 4 and in ballet. Back in the days when you didn’t take pictures of your food, and if you did it was just to remember a special occasion not thinking it would ever be posted on-line.

  I came across this recipe recently and after I wiped away my tears, I looked on-line and saw that you can’t find this recipe anymore. At least I was unable to. So despite the terrible photo from taking a photo of an old actual photograph, and me not being the best cake decorator 15 years ago, I felt it was worth sharing.

  Let me just say how thrilled my daughter was to come home to this cake after her “big” dance recital. I’m adding a photo of her more for myself than anything, but wasn’t she adorable? Also back in the day where you couldn’t see the photo and didn’t realize she was squinting. She still is adorable, but she is in college now, gulp. The years really do just fly by. Cherish every moment of your little ones, because they are big in the blink of an eye.

  

  So, this cake is not gourmet in any way, but it really doesn’t matter to a little ballerina. It will pretty much guarantee you the title of “parent of the year” for making it though. What you need are:

  Red M&Ms

  Red or pink fruit roll ups

  Vanilla frosting

  2 frozen pound cakes

  Red food coloring

  Thaw the pound cakes and trim them with a knife to look like the shape of ballet slippers. Use some of the vanilla frosting to spread on the tops where the slipper opening would be. Dye the rest of the frosting pink with a few drops of red food coloring. Frost the rest of the slippers pink. Place one slipper leaning against the other as I did. ** One thing I can’t really remember is whether or not to decorate the cakes completely and then lean one against the other, or to lean and then decorate. That should be easier to determine when the cakes are in front of you.

  Cut the fruit roll ups into 3/4 inch wide strips. Then cut four 3 inch pieces and place them as an “X” across the white portion of each cake. Cut four 8 inch strips and cut the ends as I did, then drape them off of the cakes where the straps would be. Use the red M&Ms to outline the white frosted areas.

  Now you have a happy ballerina!!!

  Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

  Posted at 4:09 pm by StephMo

  Jan 22nd

  Although I typically only make my pumpkin recipes in the Fall, this bread is something I make year round. My son actually asked this morning if I could make it soon. It is easy, delicious, and my family loves it. The mini chocolate chips add a nice compliment to the pumpkin. Then again, chocolate chips add a nice compliment to just about anything don’t they? It makes two loaves which is great, especially when it is one of my family’s favorites and one loaf disappears instantly.

  This pumpkin bread is such a hit that every time I would donate a loaf to a local bake sale, my daughter would always go buy it back 😉 Sometimes even with her own money, which says something in itself!

  Ingredients:

  3 cups sugar

  1 15oz. can pumpkin

  1 cup vegetable oil

  2/3 cup water

  4 eggs

  3 1/2 cups flour

  1 tbsp. ground cinnamon

  1/2 tbsp. ground nutmeg

  2 tsp. baking soda

  1 1/2 tsp. salt

  1 cup mini chocolate chips

  Grease and flour two 5″ x 9″ loaf pans.

  In a large mixing bowl combine sugar, pumpkin, oil, water, and eggs. Beat until smooth. In a separate bowl combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt. Mix into pumpkin mixture until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

  Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool before removing from pans.

  Turkey Pork Meatloaf

  Posted at 10:08 am by StephMo

  Jan 21st

  Every time I make meatloaf I think “Meatloaf, smeatloaf, double beatloaf. I hate meatloaf”. If you have never seen the movie The Christmas Story, then you may not be familiar with that line. As you can probably guess, the little boy Randy in the movie does not like meatloaf. But I do! Talk about a classic comfort food, yum!

  Since my family doesn’t eat beef, I make it with ground turkey and ground pork. I used to make it with just turkey for years, but started adding pork and like this version better.

  It’s funny when you have to write out your recipe because you actually have to measure the ingredients. I am so used to just adding some of this, and a little of that, that I never knew how much I was adding. Last night’s meatloaf came out perfect, so now I know exactly how much to use!

  Ingredients:

  1 lb. ground turkey

  1 lb. ground pork

  1 1/2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs

  2 eggs

  1 tsp. salt

  3/4 tsp pepper

  1/4 cup ketchup

  1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

  2 tbsp. grated parmesan cheese

  Combine all ingredients except meats in a large mixing bowl.

  

  

  Add meats and combine thoroughly. Make sure you really take the time to incorporate the bread crumb mixture with the meat.

  Add half of mixture to a greased loaf pan. Add a layer of cheese, then add remaining meat mixture. You don’t have to use cheese, but I enjoy it this way. You can use whatever cheese you prefer or happen to have in the house. I have used cheddar, slices of American cheese, and tonight I decided to use shredded mozzarella.

  

  Top with ketchup, maybe about 1 tbsp? I went a little crazy with it this time and don’t usually use this much. I like the crust that it adds on the top when cooked.

  

  Bake at 375 degrees for 1 1/4 hours. Let the meatloaf rest for 5-10 minutes before cutting.

  

  My favorite side dish with meatloaf is mashed potatoes, but since my son doesn’t like potatoes, I decided to be nice and make couscous last night. Next time I’m not going to be so nice 😉

  Chicken Cutlet Parmesan

  Posted at 12:59 pm by StephMo

  Jan 20th

  After all the wonderful flavors had melded together in my pot of sauce the other day (recipe for homemade sauce in separate blog), I decided to add some chicken parm to the dinner menu. Not something I do often because it is time consuming. Not to mention that my husband recently told me that my chicken parm is the best he has ever had, which now puts tremendous stress on me every time I make it.

  Just as you can get some frustrations out while crushing peppermints for chocolate peppermint bark, you can also get some out while pounding chicken breast. I personally don’t like to purchase the already packaged cutlets because I find there are always pieces I want to cut off of the chicken and it never leaves enough for a good sized cutlet. I buy packages of boneless chicken breast and just cut them into smaller pieces and pound them with a wooden mallet between pieces of wax paper or plastic wrap.

  When I am just making cutlets not to bake into chicken parmesan, I pound them thinner than I did for this.

  Depending on the size of your pan, I use enough vegetable or canola oil so that it ends up being about 1/4 inch high. Heat the oil over medium heat until it sizzles when a drop of water is put in the oil. Then start preparing the cutlets.

  

  In one bowl I beat 2 eggs mixed with equal amounts of water. In another bowl I put flour, and in the third bowl I put Italian Seasoned Breadcrumbs mixed with about 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese.

  Dip each cutlet into the flour, then the egg, and lastly the breadcrumbs. Put each cutlet in oil and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side depending on the thickness of your cutlets.

  

  When cutlets are cooked I like to put them on a paper towel lined plate to remove some of the excess oil.

  Put a very thin layer of sauce on the bottom of your baking dish. Then add a layer of cutlets, another layer of sauce, a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese, and repeat with cutlets, sauce and cheese.

  Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 5-10 more minutes until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly.

  Enjoy!!

  Brunch at the Lincoln Tavern

  Posted at 5:40 pm by StephMo

  Jan 19th

  

  Today we headed into Southie for brunch at the Lincoln Tavern. Every time I head to Southie, usually just to Castle Island or Rondo’s Sub Shop, I always think of the old Song “I was born down on A Street, raised up on B street, Southie is my home town”. Southie is not my home town, but I always remember my Dad singing that every time we went to South Boston when I was a child.

  I have only recently discovered the Lincoln Tavern, and today was my second time dining there. The restaurant has such a great warm feel to it with the exposed brick, dark wood, and old school lighting. It is a very popular spot and has been packed both times we have been there. The waitstaff has been great, the managers have been friendly and professional, and the food has been amazing. The only negative aspect has been the hostesses, which have all been quite rude, but maybe they were all having a bad day, both times. Maybe?

  Both times have been on a Sunday morning, and I think the next time I go it will be on a different day and time. I wasn’t the oldest person in the restaurant, but I was definitely in the minority. As a person who is only in their 40’s, this restaurant made me feel much older. I’m hoping it is just the Sunday brunch that attracts such an all young crowd, but time will tell.

  I know it’s been awhile since I was in my twenties, but I have never seen a morning party location like this other than tailgating. It’s crazy! If you are looking to party on a Sunday morning, this is the place to be. It made for great people watching.

  

  They serve brunch every day and the “Friday Test Kitchen” brunch sounds like something I will want to try. The menu changes weekly and I have just followed them on Instagram to see what the weekly offerings will be.

  Both times the food has been excellent, which was good and bad. Bad because I would come here more often if I didn’t feel so old.

  

  I was so surprised when we were treated with complimentary blueberry coffee cake while we waited for our meal. On our first visit it was amazing, but today it was a little dry and just ok. Regardless, what a nice treat and definite added points in my book!

  

  The first time I dined there I ordered the Eggs Benedict which was honestly an out of body experience. Holy wow! Ham, spinach, boursin cheese, poached eggs, asparagus, and hollandaise sauce, accompanied by crispy hash browns. It was so rich and sinful that I just couldn’t bring myself to order it again today, even though I REALLY wanted to. Absolutely delicious!

  

  My husband had a little more willpower than I did and ordered the California Omelet both times, which has egg whites, pepper jack cheese, avocado, bacon, and mango salsa. It was also accompanied by the hash browns. He loved the omelet. Oh, and did I mention the hash browns were so good!

  Today I ordered the Fruity Pebble pancakes because I just felt like I had to. Right? Fruity Pebble pancakes? I am not a fan of Fruity Pebbles, and hardly ever order pancakes, but it was something I just had to try. It came with a cereal milk anglaise which was a little too much for me, but it was fun, and worth trying. As far as Fruity Pebble pancakes go, these were good!

  

  

  My son ordered the Hot Chocolate Pancakes which came with a marshmallow topping and crushed peppermints, with a side of hot fudge. Yikes! Definitely a sweet treat, but he loved them!

  

  Needless to say we both brought most of our pancakes home.

  If the lunch and dinner are anything like their brunch, then it must be delicious. The Lincoln Tavern is a place you need to try, just try to look young 😉
