This dinner hosted by Heather Herr was the first time I was introduced to Ken Durbin aka Chef Ken. The presentation, the service, the food - it was all 💯.

If you live in the Cincy area, you must hire him for your next dinner party, holiday party or any other catering event. Been obsessed with everything this guy does!

As I’ve been in this culinary world for over a year now, Chef Ken is one of those people in this industry that I can call a friend. He spent an hour on the phone with me talking me through what I wanted to do with my passion of cooking & baking when I was starting out. You can’t find a better soul than Chef Ken - who also happens to cook the crap out of anything he touches. 👨‍🍳 This is just one example and of course, I had to highlight something sweet - his crème brûlée. 😍

First ever 👨🏻‍🍳 chef convention! So much fun!

All the samples were insane. Now I get to relax before the bake-off tonight.

I love baking my “The Grown Oatmeal Crème Pies” because my kitchen smells like a cookie factory.

These are the Halloween versions. 🧡🤍🖤🎃

My secret ingredient in my “The Grown-Up Oatmeal Crème Pie” is homemade marshmallow fluff.

Nothing compares to homemade. Use it on fruit, in s’mores desserts, fluffernutter cookies, drizzled over a chocolate ganache dessert, etc.

👨🏻‍🍳This recipe will be in an upcoming 💻 Recipe + Video Tutorial.

I may have ordered 5 pastries just so I could try everything I wanted. 🤷🏻‍♂️😜

Do you know this famous spot in the Hamptons that Ina frequents? It’s also a James-Beard award winning bakery.

Cauliflower mash > mashed potatoes

So easy too! Cut off the cauliflower stalk, boil in water for 15-20 min until soft. You can tell it’s soft by stabbing it with a fork in the water.

Drain and blend in food processor with a tablespoon of unsalted butter and your fave spices. Tonight I did Parmesan, salt, pepper, garlic powder.

(Plus it’s healthier than mashed potatoes but you wouldn’t know the difference based on the taste 🤫)

The fun part about 👨🏻‍🍳 cooking and baking is trying new things. And also understanding the science of the ingredients you’re using and testing out different temperatures, equipment and methods.

These egg bites may look simple but it definitely took me at least 4 tries to get the cooking method down. I wanted soft, creamy, healthy, flavorful and purdy. 😍

Recipe (but more importantly the method) posted on my site!

Obsessed with the way my version of the Little Debbie Chocolate Cupcakes turned out! 😍

One is the classic cupcake version and the other is a classic French entremet version with a chocolate glaze, chocolate mousse, cake, crème.

Which do you like better??
