About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love to do all kinds of baking-cookies, cakes, quick breads and yeast breads. I've just begun to do more vegan baking- leaving out the eggs and butter. So far so good!!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Christmas I make dozens and dozens of cookies to give to family and friends. And I always make the desert for Christas dinner.

Cake Balls
These are delicious and easy, but after making them twice I have suggestions for them to turn out the best they can. The cake should cool completely before you break it into crumbs. Also, I use only half the container of frosting. My first attempt, I used the whole container and they were too soft and tasted too much of frosting, not cake. But using half the container they tasted of cake and were much firmer and easier to keep on the pop sticks for dipping. I used pop sticks instead of keeping them as balls. For easiest dipping, did your pop stick in the melted chocolate, then insert into your cake ball. Then procede with dipping the cake balls.These are such a hit with kids, and with adults who want just a little something instead of a whole piece of cake. Great for cocktail parties!

Orange-Ginger Tofu Triangles
The flavor of the marinade was great, but it was too oily. I will definitely cut back on the oil next time. I would also recommend marinating it overnight and baking the tofu without having liquid in the pan. It will come out firmer, which I think is better for tofu. Baking as stated in the recipe, the tofu came out too soft for my liking. I thickened the remaining marinade with cornstarch for a nice sauce to serve at the table.

Zucchini Patties
My family loved these! I coated them in panko before frying and they were so crispy.I served them with marinara sauce. Next time I make them I'll be adding a bit of chopped red pepper and old bay seasoning.
