There is nothing more refreshing than Blueberry Lemonade on a hot summer day. Why add blueberries to a classic lemonade? It reduces the dryness of regular lemonade, and adds flavor without adding sweetness. The added complexity of blueberries makes this drink a little more robust and gives off mock-tail vibes! (I’m sure you can add …
Lemon Blueberry Cake
I decided to take some principles that I learned from Christina Tosi’s Milkbar class and applied it to this delicious Lemon Blueberry Cake. I wanted to make a fruit based cake for my grandmother’s birthday. Growing up she always had raspberries and blueberries in her garden and we would pick them all summer long. Last …
Peach and Blueberry Yogurt Cake
I had some leftover Peaches and Blueberries from this summer and decided to make a summer cake as a pick me up. This Cake is dense almost like a bread which made it perfect for a hardy breakfast snack. But also a nice complimentary dish to have with milk after dinner. For this cake, I …
Classic Fruit Tart
This recipe is great to make in advance for a party. In order to make a proper fruit tart you need to have the proper fruit tart pans. I know what you are thinking. Ugh another specialized pan I need to make something? Not necessarily, you could use a regular pie pan, BUT it just …

American Pie

Can you think of anything more stereotypically American ? Joking aside, this pie is the perfect dessert for the fourth of July …
Very Berry Jello Mold
Yes, another Jello mold, but hear me out! Jello sounds boring, old-school and might remind you of your grandma, but after giving it a try I have to say these 1950’s housewives were on to something. Jello by itself is a little boring, but replacing some of the water with creamy yogurt and adding in …
Orange Cardamom Scones and Blueberry Scones
This past weekend I went skiing with some friends in Upstate NY. As the song goes, the weather was frightful (about 2 feet of snow and temperatures in the negatives, to be exact). We spent the weekend digging out the cars from the snow, skiing and sitting by the fire at night. But one thing …
