Retro Jello Salad served in a white bowl, topped with fresh orange segments, full orange fruit in peel in background

Vegan Jello Salad Recipe

This “salad” was a holiday staple when I was a kid – gracing every Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner table. While it is sweet, and definitely a dessert, this was not our dessert. (I now mix it up with different flavors at the holidays, like our Cranberry Fluff Jello Salad.

This was served with dinner – dessert happened several hours later, right? That is …

Grilled Vanilla Pint Cake with Strawberry Sauce and Pistachio – fresh summer berries top a unique take on a pound cake – fresh summer flavor!

 

Grilled Vanilla Pint Cake with Strawberry Sauce and Pistachio @spabettie

While I enjoy ice cream any time of year, summertime is when we celebrate it more, right?

We have been enjoying a unique take on a pound cake recipe – seriously, I cannot stop making this pint cake with all the flavors. Yes. Pint Cake. See what I did there? This super easy cake recipe is a variation of my dear friend Katie’s recipe – one that came from her Bubbie. It uses a pint of the Cashewmilk Frozen Dessert, and is the perfect dessert cake similar to a pound cake!

Seriously. You know how many different flavors of pints So Delicious has?

Endless flavor …

Fresh Pineapple Sherbet with Curry Cashew Crunch

January 20, 2015 By Kristina Sloggett 53 Comments

Fresh Pineapple Sherbet with Curry Cashew Crunch

When it comes to frozen desserts, I am firmly in the camp that believes they are not just for summertime. We are a year round ice cream house here. In January, when many are making amends for an overindulgence of holiday sugars and going light, possibly even sugar free, there are many ‘treats’ that can still be enjoyed. This light, fresh and flavorful sherbet is definitely one of them. Another plus? It is incredibly easy to prepare, and has only two ingredients. Yes, two.

Those two ingredients are bringing a fresh taste of summer to the middle of your winter. The warming Curry Cashew Crunch? Pairs perfectly to bring many complex layers of flavor and textures – warm, spicy, and crunchy over fresh, light, and cool. Sweet comes from the fresh pineapple – no added sugar is necessary.

If you already know I like my ice cream, you …

Mini Toffee Mallomars

Mini Toffee Mallomars – a retro favorite from childhood, updated with toffee, dark chocolate, rich shortbread, and vegan marshmallows – perfect!

 

Mini Toffee Mallomars @spabettie

Father’s Day is Sunday.

My first without Dad.

Not a day goes by that I do not think about Dad.

More times than I can count, in the first two months he was gone, I found myself driving to his house, autopilot style (his house is two minutes up the hill from ours).

Every morning I walk through our library and say “morning, Dad” as I walk by his urn.

I still watch Days of Our Lives at least once a week, even if it is just on in the background while I work in the kitchen …but often I will schedule my lunch around that time, and settle down to catch up. Dad, I know you’d be loving the stories right now.

I also watch Barrett-Jackson auction from time to time, looking for your Corvette.

Yep, I talk to Dad sometimes. I used to bring him fresh juice and coffee every day, and since I practice this ritual daily myself, I am often wishing he was here. Giving my green juice the side eye, and drinking it with a smile.

I celebrate his memory, I think of the good times. We had so many good times.

He bought me my first basketball, when I was probably 9? I remember standing there in the store, looking at them all, looking up at Dad, how do we choose? He simply picked one up, you know how they have that half box going all around the ball, and he bounced it. Box and all. Okay, this one is good.

He also …

Double Chocolate Truffle Skulls @spabettie #vegan #glutenfree #Halloween #chocolate

Here in Portland, it feels like it’s been Halloween for a week already. Last week we had two parties to dress up for, and we have been seeing friends and other Portlanders dressing up since … last Wednesday, really.

Maybe some of those were not costumes – this is Portland after all.

The dachshunds have also been dressing up – new costumes this year include Basil as…

chocolate ganache swirl cheesecake with almond fig crust

July 4, 2013 By Kristina Sloggett 26 Comments

chocolate ganache cheesecake

I haven’t made you a cheesecake in a while. I’m making up for that now.

I think this is my best one yet.

Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts to make – so fun to get creative with the flavors. Especially when the flavors include a topping of buttery caramel sauce:

http://picasion.com/i/1V50I/

This cheesecake begins with a crunchy almond fig crust topped by a middle layer of cheesecake. Delicious as is, but I can never leave well enough alone. After the cheesecake layer set, I swirled a spoon through the surface (call it taste testing?), and poured a rich chocolate ganache over the top.

Oh my word, I wish I could invite you all over for a slice.

The positive side? You can make one yourself – the most difficult aspect of the recipe is waiting for it to set.
