So, how does one take a chocolate cream pie to a picnic, when you don’t have a table, it’s windy and sand is going everywhere and there is no chance that you will be able to “slice” it? Why, you make it in jars. Mason jars will do the trick, as so these Weck jars. Perfect way to end a meal on a beach!
Another quick to make recipe for all you blueberry fans out there. And you don’t even need to have the actual berries in the house because this recipe uses blueberry jam. very pantry friendly and comes together in about 15 minutes. Plus a baking time of 40 minutes or so, you can have these waiting for guests to arrive in a scant hour. Blueberries and chocolate aren’t a combination that I would naturally think of, ut seeing white chocolate isn’t really chocolate per se, it ended up quite lovely.
I’m still on a little bit of my meyer lemon kick, which I am finding the last of them in the shops for the season. Over Easter Weekend, I made this lovely little Meyer Lemon and Pistachios Tart. It almost looks like the pistachios are covered in a light dusting of snow, which would be appropriate for Spring in New England.
Crumble bars are definitely my “go to” dessert (sort of like variations on the blueberry muffin are my go to breakfast item). I think that there must be at least a dozen crumble bar recipes on this site at this point. They are just so eary and the variations are endless. Sometimes I add nuts. Sometimes I add oatmeal. There is always fruit. They are always yummy.
