Passion Fruit Lotus Cups
So good. So rich and satisfying. So elegant. And so, so easy to make. I’ve been making this on repeat. Many years ago, my sister-in-law made this dessert while I was visiting her in Israel. I loved it so much…the tart passion fruit so perfectly balanced the rich mousse below it. And then there was…

You will want to bake these today and freeze them. You really should. When we get together, we tend to do a lot of schmoozing. It’s inevitable. Put 5 women around a table and you will get lots of non-tachlis talk. We used to try to minimize the chitchat (and on days with lots to…

Bring Some Excitement To Your Table This Lag B’Omer!

Vanilla-Cinnamon Babka Made with Challah Dough
You already have the dough. Just make the filling and this babka is ready to go. We can pull the meat out of the freezer (there’s still lots there). But if there’s one thing that’s going to be fresh tomorrow, it’s the challah. And if you want to add one more special (and chametzdike) thing…
