Coconut Cream Mini Cheesecakes

June 3, 2012 by Kim Beaulieu 22 Comments

So today is reveal day for our Burwell Vintage Recipe Swap. Christianna from Burwell General Store runs this group and once a month we makeover a vintage recipe from an old cookbook. I really enjoy this group so much. It is so much fun to see how different people interpret the recipe and change it. Everyone puts their own spin on it which leads to some unique recipes. It's a joy to be involved with these people. They make me push my boundaries each month. This month I did not reach too far as … [Read more...]

Panzerotti: Vintage Recipe Swap

March 4, 2012 by Kim Beaulieu 56 Comments

Hi folks! So today is reveal day for the Burwell Vintage Recipe Swappers. I love being part of this group. It is so much fun to participate in. I know I swore I would never do a pizza for the swap again but little did I know Christianna had chosen pizza as our next challenge. So it's not my fault folks, you'll have to blame Christianna for this one. It was out of my hands. When someone gives me a pizza recipe to revamp it would be physically impossible for me to not keep it in the … [Read more...]

Wild Rice Pizza for Burwell Vintage Recipe Swap

February 5, 2012 by Kim Beaulieu 71 Comments

Hi folks. I have to say I am really enjoying being part of the Vintage Recipe Swap. Christianna of Burwell General Store uses vintage cookbooks and every month she chooses one recipe for the group to adapt. There about 30 of us right now and some changes are coming to the swap. I have to admit to being really excited to see what's in store for us next. It is so rewarding to take a recipe and turn it on it's head, make it something else. Some months it's easy, some months it's hard. This month's … [Read more...]

Toll House Cookie Pizza with Nutella Ganache and Skor Toppings for Burwell’s Vintage Recipe Swap

December 4, 2011 by Kim Beaulieu 40 Comments

Yes indeedy, you did read that correctly! I made a toll house cookie pizza. I had a blast doing it too! I have never made a cookie pizza before so this was going out on a limb for me. I had no idea whether it would work out or be a big old floppy mess. I've also never tried nor cooked with nutella before so this was going out on a limb and hanging by one hand for me. … [Read more...]
