Red Velvet Pancakes with Cream Cheese Glaze

Makes 4 to 6 servings

INGREDIENTS
2 cups red velvet cake mix
½ cup all-purpose flour
1½ cups + ¼ cup whole milk
1 large egg
4 ounces cream cheese 
½ cup confectioner’s sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

PREPARATION
In a large bowl, whisk together the cake mix, flour, 1 ½ cups milk, and egg and whisk until the batter is smooth.
In a separate bowl, beat together the cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar, ¼ cup milk, and vanilla extract, stirring until there are no lumps.
Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour ¼ cup batter into the skillet to make a pancake, repeating as many times as will fit in the skillet. Cook until the edges are light brown and bubbles start forming near the middle, about 2 minutes. Flip, and continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes.
To make red velvet crumbs, take one of the pancakes and crumble it up. Microwave the crumbles in a small bowl for 1 minute, until crunchy.

To serve, drizzle the pancakes with cream cheese glaze and top with red velvet crumbs.

RASPBERRY MASCARPONE TART WITH CHOCOLATE COOKIE CRUST

A dark chocolate cookie crust filled with whipped mascarpone and topped with raspberries.  Perfect for Valentine’s Day! Do you do anything special for Valentine’s Day?  We really don’t go like to go crazy for this “holiday”, our life is crazy enough 🙂  Although you won’t find us in a restaurant,  maybe I’ll make dessert.   Sometimes I’ll make a heart shaped breakfast for the kids, or some heart shaped cookies.  So creative I know! Stepping away from the hearts this year, but I definitely think that for Valentine’s Day chocolate is a must!  That’s why I started this tart with a dark chocolate cookie crust.  The rich chocolate flavor goes perfectly well with the smooth creamy whipped mascarpone filling.  Mascarpone cheese is a little indulgent (and challenging to spell!) but what better excuse than love to bake with the best ingredients. A few simple raspberries are the topping.  I just love the gorgeous color they gave t...

Portland Homeless Couple Run Japanese-Fusion Hot Dog Cart

Portland Homeless Couple Run Japanese-Fusion Hot Dog Cart : " I found Budd and Grae Lewis outside of the Springwater Church Holiday Bazaar in Gresham this weekend. The Lewises own Domo Dogs , a Japanese-fusion hot dog cart that has no permanent location—much like the Lewises, who became homeless last year. Until then, they'd owned a lovely and modest home in St. Helens. Budd Lewis used to be a successful writer and animator who worked on TV shows like 'Smurfs' while Grae Lewis worked as a technician designing Intel chips. Just before the economy crashed, Grae left her job to retrain as a publisher, anticipating that her job at Intel would either be outsourced or rendered "obsolete". But tuition at her Vancouver, Canada, college was much higher than expected, and the Lewises quickly ran out of savings. To make matters worse, their renter bailed and the couple's home was foreclosed on—a fact they learned when they pulled into their driveway and saw a ...

PIZZA CRACKERS

Pizza Crackers are a kid friendly snack that you can make in under 10 minutes.  The kids and adults go crazy for these! I would like to say these are only for the kids, but lets be honest, the adults can eat these too {and will happily do so}. I love getting the kids involved when making these because they are so easy to do and the kids can help by putting ingredients on each cracker. I am a crispy crust pizza lover, so the fact that these little pizzas are made on crispy crackers makes me one happy girl. The best part of these Pizza Crackers is you can make them in under 10 minutes. That means your kids can run into the house, get their backpacks put away, grab a glass of milk and sit down to a quick, delicious snack.  These Pizza Crackers are made using All Free for All Kitchen Crackers , the Olive Oil & Sea Salt to be exact, but these would also be great on their Roasted Garlic & Rosemary and the Olive Oil & Herb. Do you want a glimpse into th...
