David Lebovitz book of chocolate

 these are the best chocolate chip cookies i ever had except i wish they didn't have nuts. My mom loves the nuts. They are toasted pecans. It is a recipe from The Great book of chocolate and its a super secret recipe called blue chip choclate chip cookes.

Yum. But I picked out the nuts. My mom said I was torturing the cookie. She said she made the nuts like candy with butter and sugar to make the cookies special but I still don't like nuts even if they are like candy.

Sono Bakery Lemon Pound Cake

Ok so sorry I havent been on my blog in a  long time but i have a lot of homework this year.

 Yesterday I made lemon pound cake from Sono Bakery cookbook. Its so good and so moist and light.

It makes 6 mini loafs or 1 bunt cake.

 
 I like to make mini ones so I can give them to my teacher and other people.

This is the book and it has a lot of realy good recipes.

My Mom put a glaze on it for me because I had to go to bed and it was so yummy!!!!!!!

homemade meyer lemon Curd

 I am infuesing the sugar with the lemon zest.

 Chefs need to keep their station clean.

 Im juicing the lemons.

Im straining out the seeds.

 Then i whisked together the eggs and sugar.

I had to cook the curd over simmering water until it was 160 degrees. Then I strained out the zest so it is smooth. I don't like chunks in it.

My final prouduct.YUM!

Ocotillo Cafe

My mom took this at the Tucson sonoran desert museum.

 We like to eat at the Ocotilo Cafe and its good for a place at the desetr museum because its kind of like a zoo. They have southwest food but I ordered a burger and they forgot the cheese so they gave me another one with cheese and let me keep them both. Here I am eating them.

 I realy love the bread so I asked if i could see the chef for that recipe and I got to go in the kitchen. This is th3e chef de cuisine, chef jacob Thompson. He was nice. And then darn i forgot to ask him for the bread recipe.

 This is the pastry chef. Her name is Chantal Monceaux.

this is a huge piece of chocolate cake !
