Ice Cream Maker

I never thought I would actually make ice cream because there are so many good products in the stores.  But peach pie with vanilla ice cream was my assignment for our past gourmet group – so I tried it.  I am hooked!

In my never-ending quest to make entertaining as stress-free as possible, my new thing is to have these delicious pistachio-orange biscotti around when we have overnight guests.  They are an easy treat to grab, people have something yummy to eat with their morning coffee, and the pressure is off to immediately prepare breakfast.  Make them before guests arrive, and relax!

…a great excuse to eat a cookie in the morning!

For our most recent gourmet group dinner, I was assigned the task of making these beautiful and delicious onion tartlets.  They received rave reviews from everyone, and the host said that the leftovers were just as good and crispy when re-heated.

Of course, anything this divine takes time to prepare.  So, follow the author’s suggestion and make the onion jam the night before.  I spent about two hours total making the jam, and another hour and a half assembling and cooking the tartlets the following day.  Well worth it!
