Hello Friends! I know it's been...oh...six years since we last met here on the ole blog, but I'm just popping in to let you know I have a new cookbook coming out 10/1/22!
As the cover suggests, it's all about New England desserts and the ingredients and history that inspired them. I'm talking about classic recipes like Boston Cream Pie, Maple Walnut Fudge, and Butterscotch Pudding, as well as new twists like Spiced Apple Layer Cake with Brown Butter Frosting, Rhubarb Ripple Ice Cream, and Cranberry Walnut Steamed Pudding with Maple Sauce. You can read more about the book here. I hope you'll check it out, either at your local bookstore or the public library (go ahead and ask them to order a copy!).
New England Desserts also makes a terrific holiday gift for that special someone in your life. And, wouldn't you know it, the holidays are coming right up! (Thanks to the Concord Bookshop for displaying my book front and center, and J. Chase for capturing it in the wild.) In the meantime, here's a recipe for Pumpkin Whoopie Pies from the cookbook to brighten up these shortening days.
Wishing you all health and happiness. I hope you're finding things to love during these challenging times. Maybe this will be one of them!
