Ep 83: Icebox Cake Ups Your No Bake Dessert Game!

Andrea kicks off the episode with a report from her latest Cookbook Club at Olympia’s Browsers Book Shop where she sampled a wide variety of delicious treats from two of Molly Wizenberg’s food memoirs: A Homemade Life: Stories and Recipes From My Kitchen Table and Delancey: A Man, A Woman, A Restaurant, A Marriage. Inspired by her recent interview with Helen Goh in Episode 80, Stefin’s eyeing a Peppermint Mocha Popcorn Brownie recipe, while Andrea’s wondering how to get the perfect bite of that into her mouth! Last week’s dessert was the Strawberry Icebox Cake from Faith Durand over at The Kitchn. Other than the minor issue of finding graham crackers in London, both hosts loved this dessert! Up next week is Semifreddo with Honeyed Peaches from Women’s Day Magazine. Andrea reminds the listeners that they can make their own Creme Fraiche at home with heavy cream and buttermilk. Lifelong learners Andrea and Stefin continue to explore how their dessert choices inform their personalities. Now it’s time for Spoon University and “What Does Your Favorite Dessert Say About You?” Andrea went with Brownies while Stefin picked pie. You can read the show notes here.
