TWD: Banana Coconut Ice Cream Pie

Posted by C. A. - Categoriezed under: TWD

So, at the end of last week’s post I promised my very first product review/reader give away and I have failed to deliver.  I do apologize, I won’t offer any excuses but sometimes life (or in this case work) just happens and we have to roll with the punches.  “Prince Charming” is now assisting me with the product review so I will get it posted soon.

Now, on to this week’s TWD challenge selected by Spike of spike.bakes – Banana Coconut Ice Cream Pie (page 350)… Read more…

TWD: Coconut Tea Cake (and Dulce de Leche Duos)

Posted by C. A. - Categoriezed under: TWD

I have a TWD double header going on this week.  I really did make last week’s Dulce de Leche Duos and was all prepared to post about them on Tuesday but instead I had the pleasure of dealing with a broken refrigerator (which didn’t get fixed until the next morning anyway).  After that I just never seemed to find a chance to post about the cookies until it just seemed to make more sense to combine two weeks worth of TWD into one.

And so, here we are…TWD two for one!

TWD: Toasted-Coconut Custard Tart

Posted by C. A. - Categoriezed under: TWD

It seems like every week Tuesday arrives more quickly – here it is again and most of the past week is a hazy sleep deprived blur. But despite my sleep deprived state I found the time and energy to make Beryl’s (of Cinemon Girl) pick: Toasted-Coconut Custard Tart on pages 344 and 345.

I have very fond memories of eating my grandmother’s coconut cream pie as a child so I was looking forward to giving this recipe a try.

Look at that, I’ve actually managed to participate and post two weeks in a row!  I’m rather proud of that right now, of course that may not be saying too much.

This week’s selection of Coconut-Roasted Pineapple Dacquoise on pages 293-295 was made by Andrea of Andrea In The Kitchen.  I have to say this one surprised me…

TWD: Banana Cream Pie

This week, for your TWD enjoyment, Amy of Sing for Your Supper selected Banana Cream Pie, found on pages 342 and 343 of Dorie’s book.

I really wasn’t sure how I felt about this recipe, I very nearly decided to skip this week, but “Prince Charming” has actually requested a banana cream pie off and on for – well probably for as long as he’s known I’m pretty good at making just about anything sweet.  So I took another look over the recipe and decided to give it a whirl.

TWD: Coconut Butter Thins

Posted by C. A. - Categoriezed under: TWD

Tuesday has very nearly come and gone, so we’re aiming for a quickie this week.

Jayne, of the Barefoot Kitchen Witch, chose Coconut Butter Thins for this week’s recipe.  Based on the P&Q the groups results on this one were all over the board, although the recipe seemed very simple and straight forward…
