Chilly days always leave me wanting ice cream. Weird, I know. And there isn’t a time that I don’t crave Biscoff, so when I spotted this recipe for Biscoff & Bourbon Milkshakes from Tasty Kitchen member Erika of Southern Souffle, I knew I had to have it at once! This milkshake is divine, it’s spicy like a molasses cookie, and will warm you up from the inside out with a stiff pour of bourbon. Try this out immediately!

The only bourbon I had on hand when I made these was a bottle of Maple Crown Royal. The husband didn’t want me using his bottle of “the good stuff” for a milkshake but this was by far the best substitution I could have ever asked for! The maple flavor complemented the Biscoff perfectly.

Into the blender, combine pour in the milk and bourbon. If you like thicker milkshakes, use less milk.

Don’t forget to add in your Biscoff spread! I used creamy Biscoff spread for this recipe but the crunchy version would be fun, too.

Next, add in the vanilla ice cream. Add a lid and blend until the mixture is smooth.

Pour into two glasses and top with whipped cream. Naturally. Sip slowly as these are potent! And if a boozy milkshake isn’t up your alley, feel free to omit it.

Pizza night gets all dressed up with caramelized onions, spicy sausage, and creamy Gouda cheese. Sounds heavenly, doesn’t it? I just love simple pizzas that give every topping a chance to shine. What can I say, I’m an equal-opportunity-topping kind of girl. Don’t have time to make pizza dough? This pizza from TK member Tanya Schroeder even uses store-bought thin crust pizza dough, so you can make it in no time.

Thanks for sharing the recipe, Tanya! Head over to her blog, Lemons for Lulu, for more of her wonderful creations and gorgeous, gorgeous food photography.

Let’s Get Organized

Posted by in Kitchen Talk

Tasty Kitchen Blog: Let's Get Organized!

Spring is in the air, which means my cabin fever will soon be replaced with spring cleaning fever. And I think it already started the other day, when I spent 2 hours freshening up our laundry room, followed by another 3 hours rearranging things in the closet that houses all our cleaning stuff. (And now I know I have enough Swiffer sheets to last me until the next Olympics.)

Next on the list is the kitchen. And whether it’s for the pantry or the fridge or the cabinet underneath the sink, I think we all would love to hear new ideas on how to keep our kitchen stuff nicely tucked away. So tell us:

Do you have any favorite organization tips?

I, for one, love Mason jars. Love them and I’ll use them any chance I get. I even use the small sizes to portion out snacks for myself on my desk, so I don’t accidentally go overboard and polish off an entire bin of roasted cashew nuts. But I’m always looking for suggestions on how to keep my freezer organized, and I’m constantly muttering under my breath when I grab a pan and 5 pot lids shift and bang around the shelf.

How about you? What are your favorite ways to stay organized? Any tips to share? Or do you have any special organization or storage challenges you’d like help with? We’d love to hear them!

Let’s Talk Cookbooks

The other day, I decided to tackle the task of organizing my bookshelf. Growing up, my shelves used to be filled with all kinds of books on philosophy, theology, military intelligence groups, and every single one of Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s novels. Strange child, I was. Fast forward a few decades and now my shelves contain […]

Skinny Crab Rangoon
