Chocolate Cake, Simple, Best-Ever

October 27, 2014/ Em-i-lis
Chocolate Cake, Simple, Best-Ever

This is a perfectly moist, wonderfully chocolate cake with a great crumb. It holds up well over time and under frosting. I've tweaked the original Hershey's recipe only slightly to include a bit less sugar and some whole wheat flour which no one has ever noticed.

Rhubarb Cherry Hibiscus Crumble

This is the perfect dessert to bake in the fleeting moments that rhubarb and cherries' seasons overlap; rhubarb's tartness tames the cherries' sweetness, and the hibiscus keeps you digging your spoon in until the whole thing is magically gone.

Kale- and Fontina-stuffed Flatbread

I adapted the Coriander and Cilantro Flatbread recipe to make this kale- and Fontina-stuffed roll-up. It's like a vegetarian stromboli! Delish!

Whole Wheat Oatmeal Pancakes

Whole Wheat Oatmeal Pancakes

In DC, there's a great breakfast/brunch spot called Open City. My favorite dish on its menu is the multigrain pancakes, and this recipe from epicurious is a very good approximation. Hearty, flavorful, these fill you up but don't weigh you down.

Fantastic Whole Wheat Pizza Crust
