Introduction
This is the cookbook that speaks to women.
Women who want romance.
Women who require chocolate.
Women who dream of wearing a swimsuit somewhere besides the bathroom.
Women who need to entertain like a sophisticated grown-up.
Women who want to lie on the sofa in a sweat suit and eatcookie dough.
In short, women whose lives are a little too complex to have only one sort of recipe on hand at any given moment.
Here in one book, each woman will find a voice.
Each woman within each woman will find a recipe.
And every one of us can raise a fork, triumphant in the
knowledge that even if the world doesnt quite understand us,
at least theres a cookbook that does.
I once spent $218.74 preparing a romantic chicken dinner for a man: $120 in phone calls to girlfriends asking what I should make, $30 in phone calls to my mother asking how to make it, $50 to my therapist asking why I was making it, $12 for the pan, and $6.74 for the chicken.
What will work? Thats all we really want to know, isnt it?
What will catapult me from dinner companion to Irresistible Goddess the fastest?
What will make him instantly oblivious to a few excess pounds, a few extra wrinkles, and/or the fact that prior to this evening, I didnt actually know how to cook anything that didnt have microwave instructions written on the side?
What will lure him away from the NFL, NHL, NBA, PGA, and the World Wide Web?
And most important, what will I do to sustain the fantasy if meal number one works as planned and he cant wait to taste what I have in mind for meal number two?
After Commiserating with Twelve of My Closest Girlfriends, Weve Decided He Really Loves Me Apricot Walnut Muffins
These mufns go together very quickly. You can also substitute an equal quantity of other mix-ins (such as chocolate chips, other dried fruits, and nuts) for the apricots and walnuts.
2 cups all-purpose our
1/2 cup rmly packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted
butter, melted and cooled
1 large egg, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup chopped dried
apricots
Preheat the oven to 400F. Butter or lightly coat with nonstick vegetable cooking spray twelve 3-by-1 1/4-inch (3 1/2- to 4-ounce) muffn cups.
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, stir together the milk, butter, egg, and vanilla until blended. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the milk mixture and stir just to blend. Stir in the walnuts and apricots to combine.
Spoon the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of one muffin comes out clean and the muffins are just starting to brown.
Remove the muffin tin or tins to a wire rack. Cool for 5 minutes before removing the muffins from the cups; finish cooling on the rack. Serve warm or cool completely and store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Makes 12 muffins.
While He Casually Reads the Morning Paper, Ill Be Silently Planning Out the Course of Our Entire Relationship Waffles
To add a hint of citrus to these wafes, stir in 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of grated fresh orange or lemon zest. For romantic appeal, make these in a heart-shaped wafe iron. Serve with a salad made from seasonal fruits. If you dont use all the batter, it can be covered and refrigerated and used the next day.
2 cups all-purpose our
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups buttermilk, at room temperature
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 large eggs, at room temperature, separated
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturers instructions. (The iron is ready when a few drops of water sprinkled onto the surface immediately turn into dancing droplets.)
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, stir together the buttermilk, butter, egg yolks, and vanilla. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add the liquid ingredients and stir just to combine.
