The Stuff of (Neiman Marcus) Legends

The Stuff of (Neiman Marcus) Legends

I love chocolate chip cookies and am a total snob when it comes to baking them. Over time, I have tested dozens of recipes for the most classic cookie flavor known to man, and very few have satisfied my taste buds. I like my chocolate chips cookies to be buttery with a soft, but not chewy, texture. They should be sweet, but not overly so, and, of course, bursting with a rich chocolate taste.

Blueberry Scones with Lemon Glaze

The secret to this recipe is to mix the scones by hand with a wooden spoon. This prevents you from over working the dough.

Tuesday, August 25 2009 - by Kelsey Banfield, Molly Herrmann

Pizza night is an institution in most households, and ours is no different. It is generally acknowledged that serving pizza is the path of least resistance amongst children, and every parent appreciates at least one meal per week completely free of protest. The good news is that these days parents can opt to forgo buying caloric-laden pizzas in favor of making healthy, delicious pies in their own kitchen.

Contest: The Stranger Side of Baking

Friday, August 7 2009

In Good Bite's Top 5 Strange (but Delicious) Chocolate Chip Cookie Ingredients we touted the merits of turning this old standby on its head by using bizarrely delectable ingredients. Jalapenos, ginger, fleur du sel, pineapple and bacon (sounds like the allowance list of a trendy diet) rounded out the top cookie-invigorating ingredients. We've got pretty unconventional tastes (to say the least), and we hope you do too.

Best Yellow Layer Cake by Deb

We may be all for convenience and simplicity at Good Bite, but we have a special place in our stomachs for food made with love. We feel wrong opening a package of prefab baked goods and welcoming them into our homes. We like to add a personalized touch to this part of the meal by constructing cookies, cakes and muffins with flour, sugar, butter and eggs from our own pantries. That's why we love this easy, from-scratch recipe for Vanilla Cake with Sour Cream-Chocolate Frosting brought to us by Deb.

Coconut Cake by David Lebovitz

Coconut Cake by David Lebovitz

David's amazing three-tier layer cake starts with a simple, ordinary store-bought cake. But, that's about the only thing ordinary about it. From there he builds with coconut custard, rum syrup, whipped cream and more. The result is a cake that looks as good as it tastes, and combines a party of sweet, spicy, creamy and rich flavors. Our favorite kind of party.
