On top of my to be finished list is peanut butter. The daughter is its lone admirer in the house and since she can’t finish a large amount in a short time, I figured I will try using it for stuff other than bread. So here is a quick and easy mug cake with…

Quick Banana Ice cream
It’s the same situation. Again! Every time I settle down, start liking the city, figure out my way through the place without Google maps and think, ‘I can get used to this’, the husband would tell me those words – ” we have to move”. So we are moving. Again. It will be our…
Apple Crisp
When I started the CCChallenge, I thought I would blog about all the recipes from the multitudes of paper cuttings and books I picked up over the years but never looked at. But I seem to be buying new books now and the pile is simply increasing and the backlog becoming worse! This recipe…
Moong Dal Halwa
Moong dal halwa is one of my favorite sweets. This time I decided to replace sugar with jaggery to give it a healthier twist. But I ran out of sugar as well as jaggery and so I picked the palm sugar that was waiting to be experimented with for almost 2 months. Palm sugar…
Samba Rava Payasam
Like every year, I made a resolution to lose some weight in 2016 too and not surprisingly I have hardly done anything about it till date. But I figured that the least I could do was not put on some more. Hence the attempt to make jaggery based sweets instead of sugar based. Jaggery is…
Sesame seeds Chikki

Stuffed & Baked Apples
This is a sinfully delightful way to eat apples. It’s rich and juicy and warm and cozy. Also, it’s apples and hence predominantly guilt free! The best part was I could get almost one apple along with some raisins and walnuts into the little one’s stomach. Makes it a favorite right away! Also,…
Butterscotch Blondies
These amazing butterscotch blondies are again from the 500 Cookies Compendium. These are simply amazing in taste with crunch from the walnuts and the richness from the butterscotch and choco chips to top it off. Its to be eaten to be believed. But we had a mini disaster while baking. Everything was going pretty smoothly….
Butterscotch Sauce
To imagine that I did not know butterscotch sauce is this easy to make!! When I picked on the dips and sauces theme for this week’s blogging marathon, I wanted one sweet sauce just for the variety. I was trying to look for some rich chocolate sauce when I chanced upon this recipe for…
Cocoa Banana Mug Cake
I am sure overripe bananas are an issue of national concern. I mean, if I was still in India I would have blamed Modi for it and returned the picture book I received in kindergarten for best handwriting. But thankfully the situation is not as bad. There are mug cakes to the rescue. If…
