Grapefruit + Pomegranate + Sorbet. You can’t go wrong with this light and refreshing way to end a Yom Tov meal. Pesach desserts tend to be high on sugar, nuts, eggs, or…all of the above combined. Last year, I prepared Chantzy’s Grape Juice Sorbet, you know, “for the kids.” The freezer was stocked with many…

The 9×13 Life: Easy Mix-in-the-Pan Pesach Brownies
Isn’t this the brownie recipe that you always wanted for Pesach? You’ve been looking for this recipe. The one where there’s no eggs to separate. The one where there’s no mixer needed. The one where there’s no chocolate to melt or chop. Just dump and mix. And we knew just what you needed. We used…
Chocolate Walnut Puffs and Coffee Ice Cream (We Can’t Wait for Pesach to Enjoy This One!)
Yes, these chocolate walnut cookies are amazing. Enjoy them as a snack or a complete dessert, served with coffee ice cream. We first called Chantzy over to the studio to show us how to make our own beef jerky, as feature in this post. First, we need to give you some background. Chantzy is the…
Make the Cutest Square Cookies Using This Easy Hack (+ They’re Egg-Free)
I don’t like rolling balls of cookie dough. With this hack, it’s not really necessary. When my oldest daughter was three years old, she had one of her first play dates, and I decided to bake cookies with the kids. After we had made the dough, each one taking turns adding ingredients, one of the…
Ice Cream Night! Kids Will Love Making Razzles at Home
Your kids will thank you when “Razzle Night” is the fun at-home activity of the day. We’re big Razzle fans, as for me, I’d gladly trade lunch and dinner for a Razzle. Everyone needs to treat themselves once in awhile. When my sister-in-law told me that, for one night of Chanukah, she was making…
Baked Fruit for Dessert. And It Will Be Delicious.
And yes, this fruit dessert is mess-free. And it cooks in a 9×13 pan. Bonus: Your house will smell amazing. Do you, like me, periodically go through your fruit drawer and wonder why you bought so many apples? Or pears? Or plums? Some weeks I have the kids complaining that “maaaaaaaa there is no good…
The 9×13 Life: Chocolate Chip Sticks
This classic favorite cookie just got a whole lot easier. Make chocolate chip sticks now in minutes.

And then The Kosher Palette started the chain that changed the kosher cookbook scene forever! (Fun fact: Susie Fishbein was…
Yum! Naomi’s Lotus Butter Cookie Bars

These Lotus Bars are from my latest book, Perfect Flavors. Enjoy them and let me know what you think! Save Print Lotus Cookie Bars Author: Naomi Nachman Serves: 12 bars …
Absolutely Yummy Apple Cider Baked Donuts
I baked these donuts and then invited the girls over to taste. The verdict: We gotta spread the word. This might be strange, but I prefer baked donuts to fried ones. It kind of defeats the whole Chanukah connection thing, but that’s just the way it is. And when I came across this recipe for baked…
The Best Honey Cake: Decadent. Satisfying. Just The Right Amount Of Gooeyness.
You might need to hide it once it’s baked, though. Does anybody out there also get sentimental about honey cake? Or am I alone in this? Why is honey cake up there in the top 5 of my most favorite comfort foods ever? Is it because my mother and probably every other respectable Jewish…
