Oooh, I like the idea of cashews Licia. I've used walnuts with or instead of pinenuts, but I've never tried cashews. I, too, would love to learn anything you would like to share with us about authentic Italian cooking. Thank you in advance! :flowers:

Wow, this looks REALLY good Corazon. The name of the recipe is enough to make my mouth water! :mrgreen: Constance, I like your idea of adding almonds to the topping of the Cherry version. Yum. Thank you both for the recipe and the tips.

Thanks for posting the photo, Mish! It looks lovely, it's a beautiful presentation. :chef:

Hi htc, (I already mentioned this in another thread...) I love artichokes, this looks like it's delicious, and healthy too! Thanks for sharing it.

I'm standing in line with the others here Ishbel---waiting for a taste! :whistling :chef: This looks wonderful and I'll be making it soon. What a perfect treat with a cup of hot tea. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

Hi Shunka and PA Baker~ I'm getting in the mood for some of those warm dips that I usually don't make in the summertime. PA, Wow, that is so neat that you've eaten at the Ligonier Tavern! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: How cool is that?!

Yum, Mish! This looks delicious, anything with artichokes in it grabs my attention. Copied and saved to try soon. Thanks for sharing it.:chef:

Hey Shunka! I was just about to reply when I saw your post! I agree, we used to eat them on cookies and cupcakes when we were kids, too. Apparently now the FDA cites the fact that they contain heavy metals which can make them harmful to your health. (I'm wondering how many you'd have to eat...

That's how I use it, too Andy. Sometimes I just stir the yeast and water in a glass measuring cup until it proofs, then proceed with the recipe in the KA bowl using the dough hook. Hi Marmalady! I love your screen name. :chef:

This recipe is inspired by one I found in 'Bon Appetit' a few years ago. The original recipe came from the Ligonier Tavern in Ligonier, Pennsylvania. I think it's my favorite hot Artichoke Dip recipe yet. Creamy Artichoke Dip with Pita Chips 2 8-ounces packages cream cheese, room temperature...

Bluespanishsky, Did you say Nordstrom???! :ermm: :whistling Never heard of the place. :angel: :lol: Thanks for the nice words everybody! One thing I forgot to mention as a heads-up. The first time I made this I added a little too much Caramel sauce on the bottom of the cup---more is better...

Thanks for all the good ideas here. I bought these molds from KA Flour about two years ago....but I haven't used them yet. :rolleyes: I'm determined to make some of these cookies within the next couple of weeks --as soon as the weather cools. The recipe that came with the set calls for...

A really good friend shared this recipe last year, it's delicious on a cool, crisp day! HOT CARAMEL-APPLE CIDER DRINK (Very similar to Starbuck's version) In a saucepan, heat the cider with a sprinkling of good cinnamon mixed in. In the bottom of your coffee mug, place about 1 Tablespoon...

I remember seeing Michael Chiarello doing that, thanks for the reminder. I like to freeze small amounts in the ice cube trays, then transferring to freezer bags as well. Works like a charm. (No kidding about $$$ Basil!)

What a good idea Constance. I've never tried doing that but I'm going to make some using your method today. :smile:
