Cereal Eats: Kellogg's Krave Comes to the U.S.
Krave, much like Crunchy Nut, is fresh off the boat from across the pond. It was introduced in the UK in 2010 in six varieties: Chocolate Hazelnut, Milk Chocolate, Totally Chocolatey, Chocolate Caramel, Chocolate, Double Chocolate. Just this month it was released in the U.S. Basically it's trying to be as close to cookies as cereal can possibly be.Cereal Eats: Reese's Puffs, the Closest Thing to Candy in a Cereal Box
Well, it's Halloween. And since I've already written about Count Chocula, Franken Berry and Boo Berry, I figured we'd talk about the next most Halloweeny cereal there is, the only currently available cereal*, to my knowledge, that's based off a candy: Reese's Puffs.Cereal Eats Taste Test: Which Chocolate Cereal Makes the Best Chocolate Milk?
All good things must come to an end. But luckily, when you hit that depressing moment when a bowl of cereal is done, you still have that magical elixir waiting for you as a last treat. You know what I'm talking about here, people. Cereal milk. We decided it was time for a blind taste test to find out which chocolate cereal makes the best milk. We went with the three most popular, purely chocolate cereals: Cocoa Krispies, Cocoa Puffs and Cocoa Pebbles.Choconana: The Chocolate Banana Stand at the Weekend Market in Bangkok
We've been to an Arrested Development-inspired banana stand in Austin, but traveled all the way to Thailand to investigate this one. (Alright, so maybe the trip wasn't solely on banana stand-related business.) Choconana at the weekend market in Bangkok dips frozen bananas in chocolate and peanuts to order.Alton Brown's Peanut Butter Fudge in the Microwave Trick
I was recently introduced to Alton Brown's recipe for microwave peanut butter fudge. I was skeptical. Fudge is tricky, and microwaves don't really allow for precise temperature control. And microwaves vary in wattage. This seemed like a kitchen disaster waiting to happen—except it actually worked.Gianduja: Chocolate-Hazelnut Bars and Spreads
What's gianduja? An exotic rainforest berry? A rude Italian insult? An obscure European city-state? Gianduja (pronounced zhahn-DOO-yuh) is an Italian confection made of chocolate and 30% hazelnut paste.Spice Hunting: Pairing Chiles and Chocolate
Pairing chiles with chocolate is nothing new, and understandably so. It's a delicious combination that showcases subtle aspects of chiles and chocolate that may otherwise go unnoticed. There's a lot more to it than making chocolate spicy, but it's not difficult stuff. As more varieties of chiles become increasingly common, and as we gain a greater understanding of chocolate flavor varieties, it's not hard to make combinations that rival those of many chocolate makers and pastry chefs.No Oven Required: Fluffernutter S'mores You Can Make Indoors
Though summer has ended, I still have s'mores on the brain. Even though I'm not a passionate marshmallow devotee, it's hard not to feel a nostalgic pull s'more-ward. But there was also another item on my dessert bucket list. Despite my peanut butter obsession, I had never tasted a Fluffernutter. Why not combine the two treats?No Oven Required: Real British 'Tiffins'
In honor of my revelation of the need for fat and flavor, here is a no-bake recipe from the blog Joy of Baking, an English recipe called chocolate tiffins (otherwise known as British no-bake chocolate cake) made with very real ingredients. (Although the texture really resembles a candy bar or chocolate brittle). If you've made shortbread, or any kind of plain cookie and want to give it a second life, it's a wonderful way of reincarnating the ingredients.Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
