The chocolate chip sticks you love all year round now have a rival: this easy Pesach version. A Note from BCP: All year round, our 9×13 chocolate chip sticks are super popular. They take literally minutes to make and loved by all. When Chantzy Weinstein told us that Faigy Murray made a Pesach chocolate chip…

2 Ingredient Date Balls
These are the perfect, easy-to-prep pick-me-up that are great to stash during your busiest seasons! My mother in law loves a good easy recipe and called me all excited about this one! They are great–the perfect healthy snack to pull out when you need something sweet. I brought them along to a photo shoot and…
Halva Chocolate Chip Cookies
One reader found a cool upgrade to our Big Chocolate Chip Cookies. These are really great cookies. And we appreciated all those who tried them and enjoyed them too. Then one reader, Chaya, commented that she wanted to make the recipe as soon as it was posted, but found herself with too little chocolate chips….
Caramel Date Truffles
Three ingredients. Beyond easy. Beyond yum. And so feel-good! I first served this on Pesach, but they became such a favorite that I now make them all year round – they’re really amazing, special, and the perfect thing to keep in the freezer to bring out for dessert. I love that they’re not junky –…
KitchenAid Challah (Egg-Free!)
It’s quick, it’s easy, it’s a really good challah, it mixes in a Kitchen Aid, and bonus: it uses 7 oz plastic cups to measure. I had called a friend for a dip recipe. And she was telling me how her family loves the dips course combined with the “soft, fluffy challah.” They sit over…
Pizza, Cheese, or Broccoli Calzones
They’re easy to make ahead and the reward is crispy edges and cheesy, oozing filling. I don’t know why this is particularly a Syrian thing, but baby pizzas are a staple (perhaps because they’re the dairy alternative to lehme b’agine?). They’re at every formal dairy meal and break-the-fast. The mini versions are perhaps more common…
This Label Printer Will Take Your Freezer Stash to the Next Level
A little bit extra and a lot of fun, this label maker is the kitchen toy we’re having fun with these days! Last Pesach, my family spent some time together at a hotel over Chol Hamoed. Of course, that means schlepping along boxes and boxes of food. Matzah, cheese sticks, hard boiled eggs, cakes and…
Outrageous Kanafe Ice Cream
There’s so much flavor in this (easy to prepare!) ice cream dessert, it’s hard to even begin describing it to you. I have had the concept of a knafeh ice cream simmering in my mind for a while now. But before we begin introducing this amazing dessert, I need to begin by crediting two other…
Churros
We knew we had to bring you this perfect-for-Chanukah item, straight from the fryer and straight from Best of Kosher. This recipe, originally from Everyday Secret Restaurant Recipes, made the cut when we were deciding which recipe from the book to include in Best of Kosher. Why? It’s been a favorite and a go-to ever…
How to Freeze Doughnut Dough & Fry Fresh
We have a few recipe categories that we revisit often, including challah, potato kugel and doughnuts. What they all have in common is that they are three of the most popular Ashkenaz traditional foods. Recently someone interviewed me and asked me why I think traditional food on Chanukah is so important. Aside from the meaning…
