I'd love to hear from everyone… What dessert do you enjoy making for special occasions the most?
I wonder what Greg from HTD would say about this
Old fashioned is my favourite cocktail and I can make a fairly decent one at home.
Hi Claire! I have a question for you, or perhaps anyone who sees this, about your/her pate a choux recipe. I want to make the gougeres, but I was just wondering if you can freeze the shaped gougeres dough as it is made in the video? Meaning the dough already made with the cheese and everything else already shaped? I want to make this for the 4th of July, but I also plan on making Claire's blueberry slab pie for dessert. If I can make these a few days prior, freeze them, then bake them from frozen the night before i'll do that.
Baklava, easier than it looks with a pretty big wow factor. Deelish, too.
My favorite cocktail is a Tom Collins: gin, lemon juice, sugar and club soda.
Wow. Love this. I feel like what we yell should be "Flambé" just for the exciting vowel ending. haha. Can't wait to try this.
Only Claire can make a 15 minute recipe in 13m 24s
Can I do strawberry Margarita with strawberries and tequila!?
Negroni for favorite cocktail
Sour Lemon Drop. I know that I'm about.
My favorite cocktail is the "Jungle Bird": Rum, Campari, Pineapple and Lime is just a perfect combination
You must REALLY like this. The first one was a different "mmm".
Please tell me you chose a flaming dessert because it’s pride month ????????????????????????????????????
Half-sour Saffitz is back!
those cherries are my absolute favorite, I always try and buy a bunch when my Aldi has them in stock. I'm planning on using some in a cake tomorrow!
"Je Flamb"? I'd just shout "Somebody cover the smoke alarm real quick!"
This looks sooo good ????
(They sell those cherries at Aldi right now, for the Americans in the audience)
My favourite cocktail is an espresso martini
An espresso martini in an Italian restaurant is definitely one of my happy places
I cannot wait to flex on my family with this recipe hahaha
Loved this recipe… but we made it a Wisconsin Old-Fashioned Cerries Juiblee… adding Korbel brandy instead of bourbon.
