Ultimate Pecan Brownies

March 5, 2023 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

I kind of think of these as the ultimate nut brownies. Nutty browned butter, pecan meal, chopped pecans – and a little dose of bourbon to give them some Southern flair. I am a big fan of nut flours (or meals) that are now so readily available. They add such dimension to simple recipes. Almond flour is a solid standby, but I love experimenting with hazelnut meal (in a fig … [Read more...] about Ultimate Pecan Brownies

Strawberry Chocolate Crumble Bars

April 24, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon Leave a Comment

Is there a better combination than strawberries and chocolate? And when those strawberries are fresh, in season, local and at peak sweetness, I mean!

Chai Caramel Swirled Brownies

And it is easy to create that oozing swirl with readily available canned … [Read more...] about Chai Caramel Swirled Brownies

Chocolate Brown Butter Bourbon Flourless Cake

January 31, 2021 by The Runaway Spoon 1 Comment

Decadent chocolate desserts sound just about perfect right now. Cabin fever is well and truly set in and I for one could use as much comfort and love as I can muster. Just when we’ve managed to settle into a healthier eating pattern, or endured a dry January, Valentine’s day rolls around to tempt us to chocolate. And I for one am okay with that. It’s nice to have an excuse to … [Read more...] about Chocolate Brown Butter Bourbon Flourless Cake

Chocolate Peppermint Molten Cakes

December 20, 2020 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

There was a time when molten lava cake was all the rage. Fancy restaurants served it – it wasn’t really something people made at home. Then recipes were published and it became a standard dinner party dessert. Like many things culinary though, it fell out of fashion, and though everyone still loved it, it was a little embarrassing to serve it. Those pioneering restaurants took … [Read more...] about Chocolate Peppermint Molten Cakes

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
