These cookies are the first thing you should bake for Pesach This is the cookie that I look forward to on Pesach each year. It’s absolutely perfect and not in any way “Pesachdig” tasting. It’s crispy, delicious, and tastes like coconut and almonds, the perfect addition to your coffee (or tea) break. We have been…

Sesame-Less Chicken
The kids will love this. Actually, everyone will love this chicken that graces the cover of Rivky Kleiman’s Simply Pesach and Beyond. Note from BCP: When we set out to pick a recipe from Rivky’s gorgeous new cookbook Simply Pesach and Beyond, we quickly realized that this was easier said than done. So many dishes…
Rocky Road Marshmallow Pesach Brownies
We used Lieber’s cocoa and chocolate chips (the best, for real!) to make these extra special gluten free brownie bars that are so special, they work as a complete dessert. Last year, we set about making our Pesach menus, full of BCP tried-and-true favorites. But then we realized–that might be easy now, but then what…
Pesach Ice Cream Sandwiches
Chocolate chip cookies, ice cream, and sprinkles are so much better together in this Pesach dessert. This is the perfect example of two things that are just ok on their own being way more amazing together. When I’m hosting a lot of people for a meal over Yom Tov, rather than be busy making lots…
Gluten-Free Chocolate Cheese Muffins
These Chocolate Cheese Muffins are an absolute favorite for Pesach. You may be baking them on repeat. Ever since this recipe by Faigy Cohen was featured in the Whisk’s Pesach Edition of 2022 (Ami Magazine’s Food Magazine), I have been adding 3-4 tubs of cream cheese to my Pesach grocery list. Because, these muffins are…
Pesach Barbecue Sauce
Make a double (or triple) batch and use this BBQ sauce over and over again this Passover. There was one Pesach where I resolved: I am no longer going to experiment with meats for Pesach. The most popular main I made each year was simply whatever type of meat I served with this sauce. There’s…
Kosher for Pesach Beef Jerky
Yes, you can make kosher for passover beef jerky with one simple ingredient swap. Pineapple juice is the secret ingredient that will tenderize your meat. Often, when discussing Pesach content, my colleagues sometimes express in astonishment, “They make [insert name of ingredient] for Pesach?!?” The truth is, we’ve really tried over the years, to stick…
Kosher KopyKat: Pea Shoot Salad
With refreshing pea shoots and candied Facon, this fresh and different salad, inspired by the dish at Fireside Restaurant, is surprisingly super easy to pull together. Both my cousin and my daughter shared this recipe with me–their sister-in-law had made it, inspired by the popular salad served at Fireside in Monsey. When two people think…
How to Make a Hamantaschen Shaped Challah
It’s so easy to make a hamantaschen shaped challah, and the results are so pretty! Many years ago, we featured this Challah-Taschen on Between Carpools. It was a triangle shaped challah with surprise fillings inside. Soon after, Batsheva Jungreis was in touch with us about a similar idea that she had made. We loved the…
