There is one basic every family needs. Why cupcakes? Because cupcakes are always a last minute thing. Need to send something to school party? Forgot someone’s birthday is coming up?

The 9×13 Life: Outrageous Lotus Blondies
These are perhaps my favorite bar ever. And they couldn’t be easier to make. As long as you have a jar of Lotus Biscoff spread around, you’re good to go. When I looked at the list of our “Top 20” recipes of the past year (you can view the list here), I thought it…
This White Chocolate Molten Cake May Be Better Than the Original
Oh, yum! There are few things that beat the classic chocolate molten cake dessert. This might be one of them. You can easily double (or triple or quadruple) this white chocolate molten cake recipe to serve a bigger crowd. It’s quick to prepare, so I often just escape to the kitchen to throw the ingredients…
Hot Pears and Crumbs is the Perfect Dessert (and You Can Make It in Your Crock-Pot!)
This is the perfect dessert to end your meal. Especially if that meal is in a chilly sukkah. It cooks in your Crock-Pot so it’s hot and ready when you’re ready to serve it! Dessert in the sukkah at night needs to be a cozy affair, agree? And what can be more cozy, fall-ish and…
Crumbs, Cream & Coulis: This is Our Favorite Dessert of the Season.
Did you ever think a dessert this gorgeous and fresh-tasting could be made entirely ahead? I called Renee Muller and told her I had an idea for a dessert based on a dish I saw at an event. I needed her help. What kind of fruit coulis would work? What fruit did she think I…
Ripe Fruit in the Produce Drawer? Make This Fruit Crisp
Don’t worry about overbuying fruit in the summer. Too much fruit is always a good thing when you can make fruit crisp. Do you often get to the end of the week and your produce drawer has a variety of fruit that has to get eaten before it dies? Or do you like to shop…
Another 5 Things That Renee (Tries to) Always Have In Her Freezer
These freezer staples are always handy, and are there ready and waiting to save the day! One of the very first posts I wrote here on Between Carpools was about the five items I always have in my freezer. It’s 3 years later and those items are still my go-to freezer staples. Since it’s still…
This is the Best Peanut Butter Cup Recipe on the Whole Internet
What’s even more incredible is that these peanut butter cups are pareve (non-dairy; vegan). I’ve tried to make a copycat of Reese’s peanut butter cups before, trying lots of different recipes from all over, but none of them came out the way I imagined they should be. Whether the filling wasn’t tasty or creamy enough…
This Strawberry Cream Dessert is the Ultimate Wow
Serve this Strawberry Cream Dessert and your guests will remember it forever. Ever since Leah Schapira posted this genius dessert idea right here on Between Carpools (see post here). I’ve been preparing it every single Yom Tov. What I love most about this dessert is that even though it might require a few steps, by…
This Dessert is Our Favorite of the Season: Halva Ice Cream with Silan and Pistachios
What do you get when you combine Gelato Ice Cream + Halva + Silan + Pistachios? One of the best desserts ever (and the easiest to assemble!) We first tasted this combination of flavors when enjoying dessert at Revolve Restaurant in Lakewood and thought it was absolutely brilliant. We all need the types of desserts…
