other than P-dub and SE? I like Joy the Baker.

they aren't really meant to be bite sized, but my father's wife once served us scotcheroos on 3/4" squares (scotcheroos = peanut butter rice crispy treats with chocolate/butterscotch topping). they were yummy and in reality that was probably a reasonable serving size. however, I couldn't stop thinking about them for weeks and by the time I finally caved and made them I ate a fourth of the pan.

as for desserts that are designed to be one bite portions, I love a tiny cream puff.

I experience a failure nearly every time I bake for people outside my immediate family. without fail (ha!) something almost always goes wrong.

one of the most noteworthy was substituting caramel ice cream topping in the bottom of a pumpkin cheesecake with a true caramel sauce. it did not stay soft and gooey through the baking process and resulted in a rock hard crust.

my attempts at Indian cooking have failed miserably. well, they were edible but nothing like the "authentic" takeout. I could use some major help.

nothing too profound or adventurous yet. probably a brownie shortcake with berries that a friend brought to a dinner party. that's the only stand out "holy cow, this is good" moment that's coming to me.

The pickle is sort of traditional. It is hidden on the tree and the first child to find it Christmas morning receives an extra litte gift. It's supposedly a German custom, but I think that's a myth.

19/20 because I thought maybe they were trying to be tricky and guessed Toasties on the Corn Flakes. They weren't that clever. I should have gone for the obvious. Cereal is my standby comfort food- especially for evening snacking. Life is probably my favorite.

I had the taleggio and portabellas. The crust is the only part that was worth it to me (even at 3 hours prep time). I just found this post searching for the recipe because I wasn't smart enough to actually print it off.

chevre. no, muenster. no, feta!
