Blueberry Bread : page 163

Lightly sweet, and the lemon zest adds a nice sunny note. I used frozen blueberries and had to tack on another ten minutes of baking time. I substituted white whole wheat flour for half of the all-purpose flour and the results were good.

Homemade Chocolate Syrup : page 186

I was in search of a chocolate milk mix or syrup after Hershey discontinued their chocolate milk mix. (I still miss having that sugary chocolate sludge at the bottom of my cup.) Until recently, my usual supermarket stocked only chocolate syrups made with high fructose corn syrup. I experimented with recipes for hot cocoa mix but they didn't dissolve in cold milk. This recipe checked all my boxes; it's made out of kitchen staples, and because it starts with a simple sugar syrup, it dissolves well in hot or cold milk, and of course it's good on ice cream too (but not as decadent as hot fudge).

Peanut Butter Bread : page 164

Yum--like eating a peanut butter cookie in bread form. I swapped a little less than half of the all-purpose flour with white whole wheat flour and the bread still rose nice and high.
