Funnel Cakes - Two Ways
Who can resist those soft and ever so slightly crispy rafts of fried dough? Most folks only get them one or two times a year at a fair or some other outdoor overeating extravaganza. That need not be the case. They are fun and fairly easy to make. A wild hair emerged last night and I decided ditch the standard powdered sugar for dark chocolate ganache and lemon vanilla glaze.

Pear & Fontina Galette
Fall is my favorite season. I love the cooler temperatures, the burst of new color, and most of all, rustic and hearty fall meals. Pears are a plentiful this time of year, and this is a great light dessert that is just as at home on the grill as it is the oven. This recipe is one of those that makes it look like you spent a ton of time, yet it's pretty much brain-dead easy. I tried the recipe both on the grill and baked.

Pigamon Rolls
I recently posted a recipe for some killer pig candy. Here's how I described it: How can you possibly go wrong with peppered bacon coated with dark brown sugar, baked, then glazed with pure maple syrup mixed with a little cayenne? Yeah, it's naughty good. Now, imagine that pig candy chopped and sprinkled atop cinnamon rolls that are first glazed in cream cheese frosting. Need I say more? I thought not. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you pigamon rolls.
