  • Chocolate whoopie pies with orange liqueur cream

    • FoodSleuth on January 19, 2015

      This is a very interesting book. I wish it had been better edited before being printed. The first recipe that I tried was Chocolate Whoopie Pies (p. 98). The ingredient list includes "milk." However, as I was following the recipe I was shocked to see "buttermilk." Also, other than one egg, there are no leaveners in the recipe. I attribute that as the cause of mine turning out to be like hockey pucks. (I recently came across another Whoopie Pie recipe and among other ingredients it calls for 1 cup of buttermilk and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Otherwise the recipes are very similar.) I will try this recipe again - but modified.

  • Donut bread pudding with Tennessee whiskey sauce

    • FieryFantail on October 15, 2023

      Sauce wasn't as deeply coloured as in the image. Next time I would make the sauce without the cornflour.
