I’m working on finessing a couple back-pocket recipes that are easier for me to sub in for other recipes. I’ve learned recently that I’m firmly in the camp of oil cakes; butter-based ones just don’t have the springy crumb I’m after. Ina’s chocolate cake (AKA Beatty’s Chocolate Cake) is a recent favorite; one that dethroned…
Glazed Cinnamon Star Bread
Follow the recipe for the Star Bread dough as directed here on Sally’s Baking Addiction. For the filling, combine 1/2 c brown sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. To make the glaze, combine 1/4 cup of brown sugar and 2 tablespoons of water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and then allow to…

One-Bowl Chewy Chai Blondies
Blondies are the perfect canvas for the lovely flavors of masala chai, and these one-bowl chewy chai blondies are delicious!

Brown-Butter Salted Caramel Cheesecake
Rhubarb & Cardamom Layer Cake
I can’t drink, thanks to my new meds, which has robbed me of what I would consider a vital element to my relaxation equation. What can I say? I’m a Flannery. Booze is important. As a result, I’ve been looking for other ways to keep my hands busy. I’ve been doing more baking than you’ve seen here,…
Chocolate-Covered Mango-Passionfruit Cake
Like most people, I don’t really love going to the doctor. Unsurprisingly: paying my premiums is a source of severe irritation, particularly when the all-too-familiar solution to whatever is an unhelpful and ambiguous prescription of “rest.” As a result, I’m generally one to wait things out. Often — fortunately — I’ll get over it. Sometimes, however, I wait myself…
Rhubarb Rose Upside-Down Cake With Pistachio Crumb
What do I even say, after an absence of two years, that doesn’t sound completely trite? Steven and I got married last year, and we added a sweet little furbaby, Olive, to our family. The three of us spend a lot of time doing things that are surely, from the outside in, quite unremarkable. But, you know, they’re great…
The Savory Side of Life – {Everything Bagel Babka}

Treats were reserved for special occasions — including surprise trips for Superman Ice Cream…
