This month’s featured chef for I Heart Cooking Clubs was Ellie Krieger. Over the last five years or so I have made a lot of Ellie Krieger’s recipes. I started with Craving Ellie in my Belly. By the time it was over I was with Eating with Ellie with three of my foodie friends. IHCC featured Ellie for 6 months from October 5th 2015 to April 3rd 2016. That’s a lot of Ellie. I don’t think I will ever get tired of cooking with Ellie.
I needed something quick and tasty the other night since I was completely out of sweet treats. Last fall Eating with Ellie made mini pumpkin ‘jar cakes’ and I missed out on it. Every one said it was good so I wanted to try them.
The first one I made wasn’t sweet enough. I didn’t want to up the calorie count {Ellie would be upset if I did!} so I added a tad of stevia to the next one. Better! The extra sweetness brought out the spices and pumpkin flavors.
Topped with a little whipped cream it was the perfect sweet treat.
The recipe is on page 291 of Ellie’s Weeknight Wonders. {Or find it HERE}
