small batch baking

almond cake with rose mascarpone frosting, for two

April 7, 2015

It's been a happy couple of weeks in the Bowl household.  We're as susceptible to worries and stress and anxieties as the next people (okay, probably more), but in the worst of it we'll still look at each other, tucked under a gigantically fluffy comforter in the soft weeknight darkness, and say, but you know ... we have it so good.  It's so ...

chocolate whiskey meringue tarts

March 17, 2015

I have a chocolate chip snacking problem. It's those cheap, sweet ones that get me, the bags that always end up on sale at the grocery store, where I buy like four bags (because, sale) and then I end up getting home from work each day and standing at the refrigerator with the door open for a good 10 minutes, just munching.  Sometimes I try to save ...

2014 + a new year’s cake

December 30, 2014

2015 is in two days. That's weird. In my mind, it's still barely 2014, we still just got engaged, I'm still just a few months in to this new job and I'm still less than a year in to this world of food and food blogs. But in reality, it's just a few more sleeps until a brand-new year. A year when we'll get married. What. Anyway, even if my brain ...

miniature olive oil, dark chocolate & rosemary cake + peppermint no-churn ice cream

December 16, 2014

It's a holiday birthday cake! One of my dearest friends and future bridesmaids (!) had her birthday over Thanksgiving a few weeks ago. As hallmates in law school, we bonded over a mutual love for Waffle House and thick-skinned potstickers. Instead of heated civil rights debates, we discussed the finer points of chicken versus pork ramen broths. ...

cheddar brown butter apple crumbles

September 19, 2014

Happy Friday! Just popping in to wish you guys a happy weekend and to share these teeny apple crumbles, up on Verily Magazine today. These little guys were one of the first mini-fied "for two" recipes I made for this blog, and they're still one of my all-time favorites. They're unbelievably easy to make (seriously, you probably don't need a recipe) ...

mini zucchini cake with basil-lime cream cheese frosting

August 20, 2014

It's another baby-cake! Last week, I wrote a little bit about my wedding cake fantasies and how I spent a weekend baking the mini versions of the cakes I'd like to bake if I made my own cake. One was a tiny hummingbird cake, and the other is this one. It's one of my favorite cakes ever, and one that I really meant to share a lot sooner.  It started ...

mini hummingbird cake with coconut buttercream

August 13, 2014

So, this wedding planning thing, huh? As it turns out, I'm not the most decisive person in the world. (Bowl #2, who is now diametrically opposed to the phrase "It's up to you," is probably laughing right now.) I like things, and I like some things more than other things, but when it comes to actually making a decision -- especially a decision for ...

raspberry cardamom almond tarts

August 4, 2014

Hihi friends!  How was your weekend?  Ours was a mix of a little work, a lot of nailbiting to this movie, some early prep for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and copious amounts of iced yuanyang via Season with Spice's fantastic mix (so good!).   Between my early mooncake-making and the ridiculously cool weather we're still enjoying in New York, I feel ...

blackberry goat cheese thumbprint cookies

July 1, 2014

Summer has arrived! After the obstinate winter and temperamental spring we've had this year, I was convinced that New York was going to throw down the humid-est of humid New York summers on us, just to be the cruelest mistress it could possibly be. But instead, the universe has reminded me Cynthia, be a smidge more optimistic -- and this summer has ...

garlic, chives, & smoked gouda brioche

April 29, 2014

So last week, I rhapsodized about my newest-found obsession, brioche.  (And not just that, but no-knead brioche!)  I've been wondering why it took me so long to discover this gem of a bread.  I don't really know, but my guess is -- maybe because most of the photos I'd seen before were of sliced brioche, or maybe because the ones I'd tried hadn't ...
