About me: I've been cooking and baking since I was a child and collecting cookbooks almost that long. Years ago, I lost my entire collection in a flood and I've been slowly building it back up. I cook for my husband and three sons who are not very adventurous eaters. We're on the go a lot with sports and school schedules. I love to bake and my boys and their friends appreciate all manner of baked goods.

Favorite cookbook: King Arthur Flour Cookie Companion

Ginger Pork Meatballs with Cilantro and Fish Sauce from Dinner: Changing the Game

These meatballs and the dipping sauce were to die for delicious. Although there was a lot of chopping the recipe was easy to follow. Everyone loved it and we will definitely make this again. read more >

My husband texted me from work and asked me to bake something for a party. Tonight. It's a good thing I love him.

I had just read a blog post about a bundt cake so I had that on the brain. Not that bundt cake but A bundt cake. As this was a party for some famous people who were in town recording a new cd I figured that the Whiskey-Soaked Dark Chocolate Bundt Cake by Melissa Clark would fit the bill. Sadly, I didn't have any unsweetened chocolate in the pantry.

An internet search led me to this cake instead and I had everything I needed. The cake was super simple to whip together with basic pantry ingredients. I had that one moment of panic where you wonder if the bundt will come out of the pan but it released with a satisfying whoosh.

The cake is chocolatey with a spicy note from the whiskey. It's quite moist. I drizzled on a chocolate ganache to which I added a good glug of Jack Daniel's. I'd heartily recommend it.
