German Pancakes

By
This is, quite possibly, Jason's favorite breakfast. He can eat a whole pan by himself, and that's saying something because he's not a big eater. This is the recipe I use, and so far it has been my favorite.

German Pancakes:

Ingredients:
6 eggs
1/4 tsp. salt (you can do more or less depending on your taste)
2/3 cup milk
2/3 cup flour
6 Tbs. butter (about 2/3 of a cube of butter)
Syrup and/or Honey

Directions:
Put butter in a baking dish (for this amount of batter, I like to use an 8x11 size dish). Preheat oven to 475 degrees, and put the butter right in (don't wait for it to heat up to 450 before you do this). Check on the butter every few minutes to make sure it doesn't start burning. In a blender, crack the 6 eggs, and add the flour, milk, and salt; mix well. Pull the butter out of the oven and pour the batter into the dish, then place back in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until puffy and browned well.

We like our syrup hot, so we heat that up and drown our pancakes. I actually like to pour a little honey and syrup on mine (it's simply divine!). These are great for breakfast and dinner (and sometimes lunch!), though usually not in the same day :)

Pasta Carbonara

By
"Hmmm, two pasta recipes in a row?" you say.  You must say that because you haven't been following every post and don't already know from the previous post that I accidentally-on-purpose bought too much tortellini at the store.  While Carbonara is most often made with long, slender pasta like spaghetti, linguine, fettucine, etc.....well, I had to do something  with that tortellini!  I therefore give you use #2 for cheese tortellini you need to use up--Carbonara. Now don't get too wigged out by the fact that the sauce in this recipe is made from eggs that will  appear to not be cooked.  We don't judge based on looks around here, so I'll thank you to conform to that while using this recipe.  The eggs are tempered , which essentially means that they are not raw, but sorta look that way still.  I promise it is delicious.  But if you need the reassurance, mentally, that you aren't eating raw eggs, I give you my solemn assurance.  Now you ma...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

By
You know that elusive, best-ever, chocolate chip cookie recipe?  Yeah I don't know where that is because everyone has a different idea of what the best cookie is.  And that's okay!  Variety is the spice of life.  If you don't love what I love, that's fine! I'll judge and think you're crazy, but we will both survive.  You'll go on loving gross cookies, and I'll go on loving the good stuff.  And we will both, somehow, be happy with that.  If you ever want to try the good stuff, it'll be right here for you.  And so will I.  Maybe.  I'm not as forgiving as these best-ever chocolate chip cookies.... INGREDIENTS: 4 cups all-purpose flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. kosher salt 3 sticks (or 1 1/2 cups) butter, softened 1 cup granulated suger 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed 2 eggs 1 Tbs vanilla extract 1 cup dark chocolate chips 1 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips DIRECTIONS: 1) Preheat oven to 350/375 F....
