Sweet, chewy, with a hint of bourbon. Last week, over at Houstonia Magazine’s Gastronaut Blog, I shared recipes for homemade bourbon caramels and caramel apples. Well, here’s the recipe for those caramels. Halloween may be over, but that doesn’t mean the candy has to... via Chasing Deliciou
Fruity, sweet, and elegant. To me, when I think of raspberries and champagne, I think of luxury. And what better way to enjoy them than to put them together into one of my all time favorite treats? A cupcake! This moist cake, bursting with raspberry flavor,... via Chasing Delicious http://ift.tt/Ne
Rich, Nutty, and Zesty. The pecan sidecar mini pies are the classic pecan pie with a lemon and brandy twist. The subtle addition of lemon and brandy make these small pies delicious and nuanced. I suggest chopping the pecans finer than you would for a normal-sized... via Chasing Delicious http://ift
Tart, sweet, and a touch of bourbon spice. These cherry old fashioned mini pies are a delicious combination of sweet cherry, tart and citrusy orange, and the sweet, slightly spicy flavor of bourbon. If you can not find cherries you can use frozen cherries instead –... via Chasing Delicious http:/
I have been living in Germany for almost 10 years now, but in all this time, I never really grew fond of beer. I am not sure why, but it never really fit my drinking habits, except when it was a social occasion, naturally. So... via Chasing Delicious http://ift.tt/NeSPLg
I don’t have very much free time, but in my leisure I enjoy reading various cocktail/beer/spirits blogs and especially fancy watching cocktail videos. As I stumbled my way through the internet wormhole I came across a fantastic online publication from Element Collective in Chicago, entitled Rab
Hints of cinnamon, blood orange, and vanilla. These little tarts bring together my favorite flavors of the season. Perfect for a special dessert, or a guilty-pleasure breakfast, these tartlets are packed with layers of flavor and texture. With each new season comes change. As... via Chasing Delic
Sweet, rich, and packed with that fresh lemon and vanilla bean flavor. It is no secret that I love sweets. Ice cream, cake, cookies, pie. Yes, yes, yes, and yes! But put a creme brûlée in front of and something magical happens. That combination of sweet and rich, the creamy texture of the custard
Sweet, tart, deliciously cinnamony (is that a word?) and fluffy. These pancakes are a delicious marriage of summer and fall flavors. The cinnamon and nutmeg give these pancakes that warm sweater, autumn leaves falling comfort while the sugar plums add a deliciously sweet and tart bite of summer. I
Don’t worry delicious chasers! (Like my nickname for y’all? No? Okay. I’ll find something better.) I haven’t disappeared. I am working some exciting new projects for Chasing Delicious which we will be debuting over the next few months! Just so you don’t think I’ve abandoned y’all thoug
Another early morning and another day of watching a quiet world bestir itself into a hive of activity. I watch from afar, taking solace in my cold, quiet kitchen. I watch as sunlight slowly begins to pour into the room, and wait as the warmth of a heating oven robs the room of its dawn chill. The
My mornings, like much of my waking life, is fraught with routine and familiarity. Without the aid of an alarm clock, I wake up at the same time every day – 5:52 A.M. It’ll take me all of thirty seconds for my heavy arms to find their way to my cell phone; I check the time, instinctively open

Clocks ticking, time passing, and idle thoughts fill busy minds. I wait and watch, wondering what’s next, eyes caught by another tick and tock of another worn watch. Deadlines, resolutions, “you’re late”s. Schedules, calendars and to-do lists. Moments are lost as the hands perpetually push
Cake Doughnuts: My favorite cake doughnuts are dense, moist and crumbly. To do this you are essentially making a pound cake batter and simply baking it in a cake doughnut form. Also to achieve this texture, a specific mixing method is required (leavening depends almost solely the air incorporated i
