Recipe & Giveaway: Chocolate Pound Cake recipe | Cookbook & Tiptree Preserves giveaway

Cookbook review by Tracey Zabar

Big decision for my contribution to this week’s ladies’ lunch: Lemon Bundt Cake or New York Crumb Cake from this perfectly amazing book? Perhaps both. But then I saw the recipe for Chocolate Pound Cake. Here’s an easy dessert that works for an elegant party or a picnic. My favorite topping: a bit of French butter and some of either of our giveaways this week—a jar of Wilkins & Sons Ltd./Tiptree Tawny Orange Marmalade, or their oh-so-amazing Little Scarlet Preserve (yes, this extraordinary treat is called a preserve, not preserves). Trust me, these jams really pair nicely with chocolate.

Recipe & Giveaway: Greek Vegetable Tart recipe | Cookbook & Zabar's sweatshirt giveaway

Cookbook review by Tracey Zabar

This is the perfect time of the year for this cookbook. It features tons of recipes using fresh ingredients. I am thrilled with this gorgeous, easy vegetable tart. Using store-bought puff pastry--we love Dufour brand here at Zabar's--makes it a snap. Also, try the Spinach & Feta Balls with Watermelon, Fisherman's Soup, any of the skewered meats for your barbecuing pleasure, and two pretty wonderful desserts made with phyllo.

Recipe & Giveaway: Little Treasures Cake recipe | Cookbook & Zabar's Chocolate Bundle giveaway

Cookbook review by Tracey Zabar

This book has many cakes to make, with variations to dress them up or down. I swooned over the chocolatey Bribery Cake, and also the Loveliest Layer Cake, covered in sweet edible flowers. But this week, I am making the Little Treasures Cake, sprinkled with old-fashioned candies, for a little one’s first birthday. Sweet!

Cookbook review by Tracey Zabar

These stuffed peppers are very different from my simple family recipe—we use chopped meat, bread crumbs, eggs and cheese. But these darling peppers, with many more ingredients, have touched my creative side. You don’t need pasta with them, but it always helps!
