Vanilla and BDSM really go together quite well. The above cake is a Frozen merengue cake with Vanilla Cinnamon Bailey’s Whipped Cream. This pairs well with any of the following erotic romance novels: “Hot Ticket” by Olivia Cunning, “In Flight” by R.K. Lilley, “Sweet Surrender” by Maya Banks, “The Siren” by Tiffany Reisz, “Wicked Ties” by Shayla Black, or the “The Submissive” by Tara Sue Me. A slice of cake and a book make for a perfect combination for dinner dessert. Actually, the two go together well any time of the day.
Sweets
Nut Crescent Cookies
If you aren’t allergic to nuts, this is a must eat cookie. I have been making this cookie for 30 years. I used to make it for holiday trays, but because of all the increased food allergies I switched it to a fall baking thing. I don’t like to repeat recipes (something that sometimes annoys my family) but this recipe has made my short list of baked goods worthy of repeating.
The dough is cream cheese and butter based and is worth every single calorie. I use Solo Nut filling for the inside, which pairs well with the dough. I have also filled these with chocolate, blueberry, and apple filling. Once I tried Solo Almond filling when I couldn’t find the Nut filling. Perhaps it is a nostalgic thing, but I prefer the Solo Nut filling to all others.
Cinnamon Pecan Bundt Cake
I realize that this is my second cinnamon-centered cake in one week. Why? Because at Thanksgiving, my family tried someone else’s cake. Blasphemous! I politely asked for the recipe and was denied. Therefore, I tapped into my competitive nature and engineered my own recipe. In the end, who’s cake was better? Mine or the baker who shall not be named? Mine!
Blueberry Crumb Bar
Where did I find inspiration for a blueberry dessert in November? First, I couldn’t get the word BLUE out of my mind today. Second, I know it seems to be a little out of season for blueberries, but I know someone whose favorite pie at Thanksgiving is blueberry pie. Thus, I went with a recipe that is jam-packed with tons of blueberries.
