The nice thing about making your own curry paste is that like anything homemade, not only is it far fresher than anything store-bought, but it is also completely customizable. This really makes a difference when it comes to heat level. I consider this recipe as written to be about a “medium” heat level. For “mild” omit the jalapenos, and for “hot” use 3 jalapenos and add 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (or to taste).

Quite possibly one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten in my entire life. Imagine if you will, plunging your spoon through a crispy layer of caramelized sugar to expose a silky layer of frozen creme brulee ice cream beneath. Oh yea baby, this recipe is worth every single calorie-laden bite. Break out the kitchen torch! Your family and friends are going to flip over this one.

where do you find dark chocolate peanut butter? I think I might just eat that straight out of the jar!

I used Peanut Butter and Co’s Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter. You can find it in most grocery stores, definitely at Whole Foods. For more information about it, check out my blog http://www.keepitsimplefoods.com. I wrote up a product review about it and you can find everything you need there. Thanks!

I made these this morning and I LOVE them! I used finely chopped walnuts instead of almonds, and that worked fine for me. I made half a batch with PB&Co’s Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter and drizzled those with white chocolate, and I also made half a batch using PB&Co’s White Chocolate Wonderful peanut butter and drizzled those with milk chocolate. They tasted like peanut butter cups. Thanks for a great recipe!

Pico de Gallo

by Carolina HeartStrings and filed in Appetizers, Salsas

I am a Mexican food fiend and nothing makes me happier than a big bowl of pico de gallo and chips. This is such an easy recipe and you can make it mild, medium or spicy depending on what you prefer. I like spicy, so jalapeno peppers are for me, but you could add habanero peppers if you like a lot of heat!
