About this Cook
I'm married with 2 kids, Evelyn almost 1.5 and Aria 1 month! Evelyn isnt a picky eater but my husband is! he hates onions, peppers, fish, and anything that his grandma didnt make him while growing up (ugh) he is getting better :)
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake!
My favorite family cooking traditions
We are Swiss, Norwegian, Polish, and German... my husband is Italian so I'm learning more about their cooking.
My cooking triumphs
Baking is my strong point, followed by winging it with whatever else i have to make
My cooking tragedies
i haven't messed up really yet *knock on wood* i grew up cooking with my grandma so i have a pretty good handle on things.. if i have no idea about what im making i follow the recipe then if i decided to make it again i modify it to fit my needs better if it doesnt.

Chantal's New York Cheesecake
I make a walnut graham cracker crust for this that goes with it so much better. I also don't cook it at such a high heat. I took another users advice and go for the 225 for 3 hours and 40 minutes. I don't add as much flour as suggested, I use 1/8 of a cup and that seams to go perfectly. I use chocolate to decorate while it is still warm so I remove the sides of the spring form before it is totally cool so the chocolate will melt the correct way. A water bath is highly suggested, I use a roaster pan and it works very well. I guess overall I love the basis that this recipe gives me and it keeps people asking for more and more. remember don't mix it too much and make sure your cheese is at room temp.

Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce
This is the best Alfredo on the site that I have tried...so far... I did use part cream/part milk and I added parsley also. A little salt helps and a little (very little) but of nutmeg. I really liked to and so did the people I was feeding. I have to cut a star because I think it is better with less milk I used about 1 3/4 cup and not the whole amount. But overall it is the best so far, just needs a little bit of dressing up.

Rich Chocolate Frosting
I'm not a huge man of frosting and neither is my husband so going through and finding one that worked was a little bit hard. I changed mine a little bit, cut it in half to start and added more chocolate. I will have to say this is the best frosting recipe I have fond thus far and will be sticking to this one for more than a little while. Works well everyday or on days where we have people coming over... like today... thanks!
