may we have your cupcake recipe? <3
HELL YEAH, thank u anon. i’ll give you vanilla, citrus, spice, and chocolate cupcakes & if you want anything else let me know! this is going to be stream-of-consciousness rather than linear recipe, because unfortunately that is how i bake. if you want a linear recipe, let me know which particular set of pieces you want and i can write it up for you. i’ll even guesstimate times and such.
BEFORE YOU READ FURTHER: this is very long. if you are not into cupcakes, bookmark this for later when you suddenly decide to make cupcakes and keep scrolling. now with new added read more for additional readability <3
making cupcakes takes me about two hours if i’m doing two batches or an hour and a half if i’m doing one. it might take you a little longer the first time because you don’t quite know what order to do things in or how long everything takes. i like to start my fillings first because they take longer to be ready, then turn on my oven, then mix my batter, then make the frosting while cupcakes are baking.
SUPPLIES
you will need: a cupcake tin, cupcake wrappers, at least one large mixing bowl (2 is recommended to avoid a lot of washing dishes between steps), a hand mixer or a lot of elbow grease, spatula, whisk, small bowl, a small grater or microplaner, a piping tip + bag (or just a plastic bag with a hole cut in one corner) and at least one saucepan or small frying pan. measuring spoons/cups are useful but i’ve tried to include thicknesses and alternatives so you can eyeball it if you have to (i usually do, just because i know what i’m looking for lol)
you will also need some of the following (check your specific cupcake type to find out which): a box of cake mix or ingredients to make your own cake mix, cream cheese, condensed milk, butter, powdered sugar, lemons/limes/oranges, chocolate, vanilla extract (real is recommended; i know it’s more expensive but the increase in quality is worth it if you can), lemon extract, heavy cream, pumpkin pie spice (or at least nutmeg + cinnamon), and fruit of your choice.
CUPCAKE
okay so: box mix is fine. it’s good. great, even. as long as you do this: replace the oil with butter. add an extra egg. i don’t care how many eggs it calls for. i know it feels like a lot of eggs. add an egg anyway. add a sprinkle of extra salt. a tsp or so. you’ve already made a good cupcake!
vanilla:
add a tablespoon (about three capfuls, if you don’t have measuring spoons) of REAL vanilla extract if you can afford it (or i really like the vanilla paste that has specks of bean in it. 10/10)
citrus:
one teaspoon (one capful) vanilla extract. two-ish teaspoons of lemon extract. zest of one lemon. zest of one orange (i like blood orange particularly much) or lime. replace 1/2 cup of the water with lemon and lime or orange juice. add about a tbsp of extra sugar.
spice:
two teaspoons pumpkin pie spice (you can see the spice in the batter without it discoloring the batter) + one tablespoon vanilla extract.
chocolate:
it’s already perfect xoxo. JUST KIDDING. add a tablespoon of vanilla extract.
instructions:
these ratios are for 24 cupcakes. take your cupcake pan and line it with cupcake papers. you can grease the top of the pan if you’re anxious, but it shouldn’t be necessary, especially if you have a nonstick pan. then just mix your batter until it’s not particularly lumpy and fill your cupcake papers about a third of the way full. a quarter cup measure is easiest for me to use bc the amount that easily comes out of it is about the right amount & it drips less than a spoon does. then i like to use a spoon to push the batter up the sides a little so it holds the fillings better.
FILLINGS
you can mix and match the hell out of these, honestly. i typically do cheesecake in everything & then fruit in vanilla or citrus cupcakes, specifically apple or cranberry in spice cupcakes, & chocolate in vanilla or chocolate cupcakes.
cheesecake:
one package softened cream cheese + 10 oz (2/3 a 14 oz can) condensed milk. stir on low heat until smooth, then add 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. DON’T add sugar. it’s not supposed to be very sweet.
fruit compote:
literally just half a cup or so of frozen or fresh fruit. i’ve done this with raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, cranberries, apples (fresh and cubed is best), and peaches. anything is fair game, honestly. i want to try stewed kumquats and plums at some point. if frozen, add a tiny bit of water. if fresh, add about as much water as you have fruit. squeeze some lemon and lime in there. add sugar to taste. for the apple spice mix, add another teaspoon of vanilla and a teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice.
IMPORTANT: you do NOT want this to be sweet. this is NOT jam. it should be a little tart when you taste it. if it’s not thick enough, slurry a tbsp of cornstarch in a little bit of cold water and stir it in. it should be thick enough to not drip off of a spoon when you turn it upside down.
ganache:
heat a cup of heavy cream on very low heat. i like to do a double boiler: saucepan half-full of water, bowl full of cream in the saucepan. when the cream is warm, stir in most of a package of dark chocolate chips. stir HARD—whisk the shit out of it. DO NOT let any of the water get into the bowl!! you want the ganache to be gloppy when you lift it with a spoon—it has to not soak into the cupcake mix.
instructions:
so you have your 1/3 full cupcake wrappers with the batter spooned a little bit up the sides. using a small kitchen spoon, drop a spoonful of cheesecake into each cupcake. then top that with a spoonful of ganache or a spoonful of fruit compote (or both! it’s your kitchen!). spoon batter over the top and down the sides. fully covered, it should come to just under the top of the cupcake wrapper—i usually have 1/4 to 1/8 of an inch grace.
pop that in the oven according to the box instructions. i usually find that cupcakes with fillings take the longer time listed, rather than the shortest one. when your time goes off, touch the top of a cupcake. if it feels firm (think: ripe plum; you can push on it and it’s soft but it doesn’t cave in), it’s probably done. you can also put a toothpick down one of the sides, rather than the middle. pull your cupcakes out of the oven, put in your second batch, and set these aside to cool.
FROSTINGS
there are two frostings that go well here. i tend to like buttercream for vanilla and citrus and cream cheese for apple spice and chocolate. your mileage may vary. this is where the sweetness comes from, without overwhelming the cupcake!
buttercream:
let two sticks of butter (one unsalted and one salted) soften on your countertop. DON’T melt them. when they’re room temperature and you could mold them with your fingers, put them in a bowl. a mixer is best for this stage, but you can do it with a whisk and spatula if you’re determined, have patience, or can switch out with someone else. whip the butter a little. add five cups of powdered sugar, a cup at a time.
for a vanilla cupcake, add a tablespoon of vanilla extract (or vanilla paste! the specks are SO cool looking!) and use heavy cream to even out the texture until you think it’s pipeable (you’re looking for “holds its shape without being Chunky”). for a citrus cupcake, add a teaspoon of citrus extract and lime juice until it’s pipeable. two sticks of butter is too much, but one stick usually isn’t quite enough, and i prefer to have extra to practice piping with.
cream cheese frosting:
let one package (8oz) of cream cheese soften on your countertop. mix it in a bowl until smooth. add about four cups (3/4 a regular water cup, i think) of powdered sugar—again, we’re looking for “pipeable without being inflexible”. add a tablespoon of vanilla extract/paste and use heavy cream if you need to soften the texture at all.
both of these frostings take coloring very well. something that i personally love is doing a sort of gradient, where i’ll add red to one side and mix it well, yellow to another side and mix it well, make some orange in the middle, and leave some white here and there. then spoon from each section into a piping bag and voila, free beautiful swirls. you can also use a knife to frost your cupcakes, but i think piping is fairly easy to pick up on if you try it a few times, and it makes your cupcakes look that much more professional.
instructions:
make SURE your cupcakes are COOL TO THE TOUCH before you frost them! pop them in the fridge if you’re in a hurry! a single layer of piping should be enough, but decorate if you want. icing sugar is pretty. don’t go too overboard with sprinkles—they make it hard to eat.
voila! cupcakes.
SUBSTITUTIONS
i have made these gluten-free, dairy-free, corn-free, vegan, etc etc. gluten free box mix is fine. your own powdered sugar (powdered sugar + tapioca starch) is great. you can do a coconut milk pudding instead of cheesecake or ganache. you can do baking soda + vinegar instead of baking powder (1/4 tsp bs + 1/2 tsp vinegar per tsp baking powder). if you’re allergic to fruit, i am SO SORRY for you but please try the chocolate ones. you can substitute any extract, any flavor profile, any combination of ingredients. if you’re using a commercial egg substitute, just add an extra 1/4 cup of it. if you’re using flaxseed, just add an extra tablespoon of flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water.
it may not come out exactly the same as the standard ones, but my friends with dietary restrictions still swear by them. i have never brought cupcakes home from a party. i don’t think anyone who’s ever tried one has not gotten a second helping. people who swear they aren’t cupcake people love these cupcakes. (it’s because they aren’t overly sweet or moist or dry and they aren’t one-note, because the fillings add complexity of texture and flavor. there you go, now you know how to describe your new cupcakes to people).
congrats! you’re about to be everyone’s favorite party guest!
#personal#askposting#i apologize in advance for how much is in here ❤️#i’ll try to put a read more on this when i get on a laptop#most of these recipes are not Mine in that i did not solely invent them. however i have altered them & mixed & matched them & etc etc#so they’re yours now

20) Vegan Pumpkin Swirl Cheesecake - This recipe is excellent during Fall as well as the colder winter season months. Something about the combination of pumpkin as well as cinnamon simply makes this much healthier dairy-free cheesecake taste like comfort.
21) Yellow Cake Donuts - I'm not going to sugar layer this - there is a great deal of sugar in this dish. While donuts aren't something you'll want to consist of in your day-to-day diet regimen, they're definitely an enjoyable reward from time-to-time. If you're trying to find a dairy-free version of your favorite yellow cake donut after that this dish is perfect for you. Instead of milk, the dish requires unsweetened coconut milk, instead of butter, it includes healthy and balanced avocado oil.
22) 3-Ingredient Double Delicious chocolate Mousse - The structure of whipped coconut lotion is absolutely amazing. So it's not surprising that by adding a little powdered sugar as well as cocoa powder you would develop an outstanding dairy-free mousse.
23) 3-Ingredient Dairy Free Fudge - This is the ideal no-bake reward. Utilizing coconut milk, confectioner's sugar, as well as dairy-free chocolate chips, this treat will take you about 10 mins to make and it's sure to excite a crowd.
24) Edible Cookie Dough - Is it just me or is there something addictive concerning cookie dough? It's a lot more lip-smacking great compared to a baked cookie! The only problem is - given that many cookie recipes require eggs, the raw dough isn't all that safe to eat. Enter this edible cookie dough dish. Simply make sure to use dairy-free delicious chocolate to maintain this recipe entirely devoid of dairy.
25) No-Churn Dairy-Free Ice Lotion - I yell, you shout, all of us shout for dairy-free-ice-cream! A bowl of this smooth and also creamy treat is made from coconut milk, sugar, as well as simply a touch of powdered gelatin. A few doses as well as you could be fooled right into assuming it's the actual deal!

No pressure to answer at all, but I just saw that delicious looking cappuccino cheesecake you reblogged, and I know you are a baker, so I was wondering if you had any recommendations on good fairly easy cheesecake recipes, or really any baked goods. I am not a baker (other than the occasional batch of chocolate cookies), but thought I might try to make something for my parents when I visit them in a few weeks. Thanks!
I hope you haven’t thought I forgot or ignored you! I got your message right before vacation and haven’t had a chance to answer until now.
Cheesecake is kind of like puff pastry: it’s one of those things that I really, really want to try, but I haven’t gotten to it yet. Admittedly, I’m a bit intimidated by it! I know a few people who swear by the classic Philadelphia Cream Cheese Cheesecake Recipe, ie the one that’s on the cream cheese package. I would think that, like most recipes, once you get the basics of the recipe down pat you can spruce it up with added ingredients like fruit or chocolate.
My specialties include muffins and bagels. Bagels don’t have to be difficult, but they are time consuming. Each batch takes about 2-2.5 hours from start to finish. Muffins, though... Muffins are quick, easy, and simple to make impressive. Especially with this handy-dandy recipe:
The really nice thing about this is that you pick out the ingredients you have. There are options! If you’re out of one thing, there’s probably something else to substitute. It’s also good for learning what the different ingredients actually do (what’s a binder, what’s a rising agent, etc). I’m not entirely sure where I found this, tbh, but I love it so much! It is a vegan recipe, but I’m sure if you wanted to use non-vegan ingredients you could just sub those in where appropriate. I’m not vegan anymore but most of my baking still is out of habit and due to a somewhat sensitive tummy. From this recipe I’ve made: peanut butter/chocolate, lime/coconut, spiced, pumpkin, s’mores, triple chocolate, almond/poppy, lemon, and cranberry/orange muffins. Muffins are a really good carrier of lots of flavors.
Something else that I highly recommend is this chocolate cake. It’s a big crowd-pleaser for me. I have made it as-is, but I’ve also doubled the recipe and put peanut butter or mint butter cream between the layers.
Hope something here helps! I have a lot of recipes, but some of them are complicated and challenging (they don’t always come out right even for me!). Hope you make something delicious for your parents and, if you like, come back and tell me about it. :)

RECIPE: Deeply Pumpkiny Pumpkin Cheesecake (from The Artful Baker by Cenk Sönmezsoy)
Fitting 4.4 pounds of apples into a Bundt cake (Deeply Appley Apple Cake) felt like the biggest victory of my culinary adventure until I managed to squeeze 6.6 pounds of pumpkin into eight slices of cheesecake. That’s right: you’ll be eating close to a pound of pumpkin in every slice.
I owe this victory to Cook’s Illustrated. The magazine’s tip for achieving a concentrated flavor as well as a smooth and creamy texture in pumpkin cheesecake is genius—blotting canned pumpkin puree with paper towels to remove excess moisture before mixing it with the rest of the ingredients.
I always prefer to cook from scratch, so using canned pumpkin is out of the question for me. If you’d like to take a shortcut and have a favorite brand, feel free to use it, so long as you remove excess moisture as explained below.
Serves 8 to 10
CRUST
3½ tablespoons (1.7 ounces; 50 grams) unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more for pan
1 cups (210 grams) Cinnamon and Ginger Wafer Crumbs (see below)
FILLING
6.6 pounds (3 kilograms) fresh pumpkin
1¼ cups (250 grams) granulated sugar
14.1 ounces (400 grams) full-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup (240 grams) heavy cream, at room temperature
GARNISH
½ cup (120 grams) Crème Fraîche, lightly whipped
2 tablespoons (11 grams) blanched pistachio flour
Set a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Butter the bottom and sides of a 9-inch (23-cm) square baking pan. Line the pan with two overlapping strips of parchment paper that are the width of the pan bottom and long enough to cover the bottom and sides with 2 inches (5 cm) of overhang on each side. Butter the lower parchment to secure the top sheet.
To make the crust:
In a medium bowl, stir and mash the wafer crumbs and melted butter with a fork until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Scrape the mixture into the prepared pan and press it with the back of a spoon into an even layer on the bottom only. Bake until set, about 12 minutes. Set the pan on a wire rack to cool completely. Leave the oven on.
To make the filling:
Peel, seed, and cut the pumpkin into 1½-inch (4-cm) pieces. Measure out 4 pounds (1.8 kilograms) of pumpkin flesh for the pumpkin puree (reserve the rest for another use, such as a soup). Arrange the pumpkin in an even layer on a large rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 1 hour 10 minutes, stirring once halfway through the baking time. Set the sheet on a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
Transfer the baked pumpkin pieces in batches to a fine-mesh strainer set over a large heatproof bowl and press hard with a silicone spatula until only coarse fibers are left in the strainer. Discard the solids left in the strainer after each batch. Scrape any puree clinging to the bottom of the strainer into the bowl.
Scrape the strained pumpkin puree onto a rimless baking sheet lined with three layers of paper towels and spread it evenly with a small offset spatula. Place three layers of paper towels over the puree and press lightly to blot. Once the paper towels on top are completely wet, peel them away and place another three layers of paper towels on top. Place another rimless baking sheet over the towels and carefully flip the whole thing so that the bottom baking sheet is now on top. Remove the top baking sheet and peel away the wet paper towels. Continue to blot and flip until the paper towels come up with only traces of moisture. It will take 4 to 5 rounds. You will have about 1¾ cups (400 to 450 grams) of pumpkin puree. (The pumpkin puree will keep, wrapped airtight, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month. Bring to room temperature before using.)
Measure out 1½ cups (390 grams) of the pumpkin puree (you may wish to sweeten the remaining puree to enjoy later as pumpkin butter), transfer it into a medium bowl, and stir in the sugar.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese at medium speed until smooth, about 5 minutes. Add the sweetened pumpkin puree and beat until blended, about 3 minutes. Switch to the paddle attachment. Add the eggs and cream and beat at the lowest speed until blended, about 5 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Meanwhile, put a kettle of water on to boil.
Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a small offset spatula.
Set the pan inside a large roasting pan and set it on the oven rack. Pour in boiling water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the pan. Close the oven door. Bake until the center of the cheesecake jiggles slightly when the pan is gently shaken, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Turn the oven off, prop the door slightly open with a wooden spoon, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour. Carefully remove the pan from the water bath and set the pan on a wire rack to cool completely. Cover the pan with a sheet of aluminum foil, poking holes in the foil with a fork to prevent condensation, and refrigerate for at least 5 hours, or preferably overnight.
To garnish and serve:
Using the parchment overhang as handles, lift the cheesecake out of the pan and transfer it to a cutting board. Cut the cheesecake in half, then cut each half crosswise into 4 or 5 equal rectangles. Transfer the pieces to a serving plate. Fit a small pastry bag with a medium closed 7 pointed star tip (Ateco #846), twist the tip of the bag, place it in a small glass, and fold the top of the bag down over the edge of the glass. Scrape the crème fraiche into the bag, unfold the cuff, and twist to enclose the crème fraiche. Holding the pastry bag at a 90-degree angle to the surface of the cheesecake, pipe a star onto one end of each rectangle. Sprinkle the pistachio flour evenly over the crème fraiche stars and serve cold.
Storage:
The cheesecake slices will keep, covered with an aluminum foil tent (poke holes in the foil with a fork to prevent condensation), in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
CINNAMON & GINGER WAFER CRUMBS
Makes 1¾ cups (210 grams)
¾ cup (105 grams) all-purpose flour
¼ cup (40 grams) confectioners’ sugar
Pinch of fine sea salt
4 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon (2.2 ounces; 60 grams) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon (20 grams) maple syrup
½ teaspoon (2 grams) ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon (2 grams) ground ginger
Set a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade, process the flour, sugar, and salt until blended. Add the butter pieces and pulse until coarse crumbs form. Add the maple syrup and process until the dough gathers around the blade, about 1 minute.
Scrape the dough onto a large sheet of parchment paper. Cover with another sheet of parchment and roll out the dough to an even thickness of ⅛ inch (3 mm). Transfer the dough and parchment to a baking sheet and peel off the top parchment.
Bake until golden on top and light brown on the edges, 14 to 16 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and transfer the wafer with its parchment onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Break up the wafer into large pieces and transfer them to the food processor. Pulse until crumbs form, about 1 minute. The crumbs are now ready to use in recipes.
Storage: The wafer crumbs will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

An Autumn Time: Extra: Food Notes For October 2017
The following are the food notes for An Autumn Time. There is an entry for each day of the month, plus extra.
Sunday 1st October: Harry made cauldron cakes, with custom fillings of pumpkin, and apple, as autumn flavours, and with yuzu, which Harry saw on the Great British Bake Off (in Sophie’s bake). He shared these with Draco, as part of a lunch-outside spread.
Harry’s cauldron cakes consisted of a charcoal dark chocolate or golden white chocolate shell in the shape cauldron, followed by a thin layer of sponge and an oozing filling inside.
Monday 2nd October: Harry made fish and chips and mushy peas for dinner with Ron and Hermione, a British staple. Harry, being a chef, choose dover sole for his battered fish, and accompanied it with curry-spiced sweet potato chips, mushy peas, and a tangy coleslaw, aside the condiments of vinegar, lemon and tartar sauce.
Tuesday 3rd October: To give Draco energy to work hard, Harry made a packed dinner, charmed hot, which included a cup of green tea, a dish with chunks of salmon, slices of avocado and blanched greens with sprinkles of toasted sesame seeds, and ending with dessert, a dark chocolate pudding, topped with chopped nuts and blueberries. This was inspired by the previous week’s Great British Bake Off episode, what had been pudding, and all the ingredients, according to one of Harry’s cook books, were supposed to increase brain power.
Wednesday 4th October: Harry made a tonne of pastries, given that yesterday’s Great British Bake Off episode was pastry week. He made both individual savoury pastries and sweet pastries, for Draco, for Teddy and Andromeda, and for the Delacour-Weasleys, using seasonal ingredients including game meat, squash, beetroot, blackberries, raspberries and figs. For him and Ron and Hermione, he made a single large hand-raised curry pie.
Thursday 5th October: This was the night of the full moon, and given that it had just been the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival, Harry made moon cakes for Draco and the volunteer patients to share. In one golden moon cake, Harry had made a lotus paste filling, with four salted egg yokes. In the other golden moon cake contained sweet and savoury salted pork, nuts, and four salted egg yokes. The white snowskin moon cake contained an egg custard filling, and the dark purple moon cake contained purple yam, and a sweet potato paste shaped into a ball served as the ‘moon’.
Friday 6th October: Date night with Draco! For the main meal, Harry made a seasonal wild mushroom stroganoff, which he served with rice. He made two identical servings of dessert: each comprised of a “frosted” bubble made from melted sugar, inside which Harry had laid down crumbs from dark chocolate biscuits and crushed hazelnuts, shaped leaves made from matcha icecream, and a flower with thick petals made of cheesecake (double cream, cream cheese, sugar, pureed strawberries) which “flowered” by the power of magic, opening up to reveal mixed berries sitting in a berry sauce and cream.
Saturday 7th October: For breakfast, Harry made a Full English. He fried bacon, eggs, and mushrooms. The tomatoes, cut in half, and the black pudding, in slices, were grilled in the oven along with some hash browns Harry had made previously and frozen. Ron heated up canned baked beans. They had home-squeezed orange juice and a cup of good breakfast tea.
Sunday 8th October: Harry, Ron and the kids had a day out on the scarecrow trail. They ate grilled sausages, kebabs, patties, along with some salad, out of plastic plates with plastic utensils (they eventually gave up on the utensils). They bought soft drinks, and Harry also a couple of ‘gypsy tart’ slices to share, a traditional dessert from Kent.
Monday 9th October: With pumpkin definitely in season, Harry made a well-spiced pumpkin soup, with scattered pumpkin seeds, sage, and a drizzle of a savoury cheese sauce, which was served with crusty bread. For dessert, he made a pumpkin cheesecake to share. Harry didn’t expect it to actually happen, but he and Draco ended up feeding each other little spoonfuls of cheesecake.
Tuesday 10th October: Draco bought food, in part motivated by wanting something decidedly not pumpkin, and also for Harry to take a break from cooking: matcha soba and a number of side dishes to go with it, including dipping sauce, green onion and wasabi, a mix of vegetable and shrimp tempura.
Wednesday 11th October: Harry spent the day with Ron making many, many different iterations and matches of chocolate insects—mostly milk and white chocolate, with added colours to make them more realistic—and figuring out how to spell in the sweet coloured syrup that would be the blood of the insects, all without it burst out as the charmed chocolate insects moved around. Dinner was something pumpkin themed, presumably.
Thursday 12th October: Draco actually cooked—he made ‘grilled’ pork with apples, which he cooked by preparing all the ingredients and then levitating it over a good strong direct heat that he used to heat up his potion cauldrons. The apple-crumble-cheesecake came together quickly: for any ‘baking’ components, Draco used a levitation and quick direct heat and charm to speed up the re-organisation of the molecules, and for the ‘chilling’ components, Draco again used a spell that quickly cooled and set the cheesecake just so.
Friday 13th October: An unlucky day, perhaps. Harry was feeling down, so he and Draco made dinner together. Harry just threw together a quick stir fry (with pumpkin), and Draco made a Waldorf salad (with apples).
Saturday 14th October: Today, Lee came over to take photos of Harry cooking, and of his food. So Harry made a full English for the “breakfast”, open-faced sandwiches for the “lunch”, and a pasta for the “dinner”. Just before bed, he, Draco, and Teddy each had a cup of hot chocolate, with marshmallows on top.
Sunday 15th October: After visiting Grimmauld Place, Harry made an array of sfogliatelle, with different fillings including chocolate, and jam, candied fruit and cream. They were served after the traditional large Weasley Sunday dinner, which would have included a large roast, baked potatoes, Yorkshires, a mixture of roasted and blanched vegetables, salads, and lovely gravy.
Monday 16th October: Draco had a packed lunch from Harry, which would not have been mere sandwiches. Harry also made some black-cat shaped cookies, which would have been flavoured and coloured with activated charcoal, black sesame, or oreos. He found all three flavours had their own charm.
Tuesday 17th October: Harry spent the day baking various different things in trial before the bake sale. Draco bought medlar tarts for dessert, which took him a while to find, not that he’d admit that to Harry (given the Forgotten Bakes theme for the Great British Bake Off that night, Draco wanted to buy something very old fashioned and obscure, yet still looked appetising).
Wednesday 18th October: Harry shared a romantic lunch with Draco (before it was unceremoniously interrupted). For an appetiser, he made bruschetta with cheese and cured meats, and the main dish was pasta pescatore—a seafood pasta—which included clams and scallops and mussels, i.e. Harry had spared no expense.
Thursday 19th October: Harry prepared a lot of pumpkin puree ahead of the bake sale. For dinner though, he did make risotto, that did not include pumpkin nor related vegetables.
Friday 20th October: Harry made a big chocolate cake, to be eaten with icecream and strawberries, for Draco and the lycan volunteers, in celebration of the breakthrough that Draco had made. Throughout the day, Harry made many, many different baked goods, both sweet and savoury for the bake sale the next day. Draco had previously said he’d make dinner this night, which meant that he went out and bought noodles.
Saturday 21st October: Today was Harry’s bake sale! He had made pumpkin cheesecake brownies, blackberry cheesecake shots, pumpkin pies, rhubarb and lemon pudding, apple cakes, oreo black cat cookies, miniature glowing jack-o-lantern pumpkin cakepops, ghostly candy floss, chocolate bats, slime cauldron cakes, pastry latticed mummy-like tarts, and an assortment of miscellaneous monster miniature bakes (of biscuits and cookies and cupcakes decorated like monsters and insects and spiders)...
For actual meals though, he had a quick sandwich before the sale, and had a sandwich after it. After his and Draco’s bath, they would have made some proper dinner together.
Sunday 22nd October: It’s the weekly dinner at the Burrow! Harry made caramel apples to share, and he and Ron and the kids tricked Draco into biting into a caramel-onion! Harry did give Draco a proper caramel apple in the end.
Monday 23rd October: Harry made an earl grey cake for Narcissa and the house elves to enjoy, as a thank you for their help with Grimmauld Place. He had packaged it in a box that would automatically enlarge back to its original size when opened. In fact, he he felt that was getting rather good at this packing thing (in contrast to his ability to wrap Christmas presents!), which made Sara’s idea of an owl-order business more tantalising.
Tuesday 24th October: Ron cooked dinner this night. He made a spiced aubergine bake, grilled salmon, and a watercress salad. He also made chocolate cake with a tonne of chocolate frosting and chocolate bark with chocolate sauce, which he served with some pitted cherries.
Wednesday 25th October: Harry and Molly and all the kids made sweet treats: there were pretzels, marshmallows, lollies, nuts, sprinkles and various toppings, and a lot of melted chocolate. The kids were...creative in what they smashed together. A lot of it was eaten, but some were saved for the upcoming Halloween party.
Thursday 26th October: This night had the dinner party at Harry and Draco’s place, with Draco’s friends, Pansy, Millicent, Blaise and Greg. For the starter, they had butternut squash soup. For the main dish, there was a very cheesy roasted squash lasagna with a nutty pesto, and for dessert, pumpkin flan. To cut through the alternating sweetness and saltiness was a sharp iced mint lemonade.
Friday 27th October: Harry still had a lot of pumpkin, so he made pumpkin ravioli, that went in a dish along with cubes of pumpkin, a cheesy crème fraîche and an almond glaze. He made some little choux buns with pumpkin-cream inside for dessert (inspired by that week’s Bake-Off episode).
Saturday 28th October: The great big Weasley Halloween Party! There were all the lollies and chocolates and treats that the kids made with Harry and Molly, there was pumpkin juice, and caramel apples, and apple bobbing. The main dish included a stuffed jack-o’-lantern bell pepper/capsicum.
Sunday 29th October: In the morning, Harry had a full English brunch with Ron and Hermione. After he and Draco walked around the park, and explored a bit of Muggle London together, they when to an overpriced food kiosk in one of the parks, and had burgers and chips.
Monday 30th October: Harry made some desserts for Lee to photograph. For dinner, Harry went back home. He made gnocchi, which his paired with apples and Stilton cheese. Draco dipped slices of apple into chocolate ganache for the dessert.
Tuesday 31st October: Harry and Draco only shared breakfast today—Draco cooked. Later in the evening, after they finished visiting the cemetery by Godric’s Hollow, Draco will go to France and eat dinner with his extended family, and Harry would go to the Burrow to eat dinner with his surrogate parents.
:::
In the future, Harry would teach Draco how to cook more things; Draco would diligently learn, but subsequently cook it in his own way. Draco would eat crabapples, and will find them delicious. Not as delicious as apples, but he will admit that there is more to fruit than apples.
And one day, Harry would have the bright idea of making a chocolate ball that melts away to reveal an engagement ring inside...

Pumpkin Pie Spice
As fall baking season approaches, I’ve been busy in my kitchen working on a plethora of apple and pumpkin recipes for the upcoming baking season, and, if I’m being perfectly honest, enjoying every little bit of the fruits of my labor 🙂
It occurred to me a few weeks back that although I’ve provided you with my homemade apple pie spice recipe, I had yet to give you my super easy pumpkin pie spice recipe. It’s been a lifesaver for me over the years and is just the easiest thing imaginable.
Over the course of the fall baking season, I’ll usually make up 3 or more batches of this pumpkin pie spice recipe. It’s not just for pies people! I use it almost every pumpkin recipe because it adds so much flavor and warmth to the dishes. It’s the perfect substitute for pumpkin pie spice that you buy at the store – but better 😉
What Is In Pumpkin Pie Spice
Pumpkin pie spice is a blend of 5 spices:
Cinnamon
Ginger
Nutmeg
Cloves
Allspice
Why Make Homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice?
Because you want to save money! Those little tiny bottles of pumpkin pie spice are NOT cheap. You can make your own for a fraction of the cost and it couldn’t be easier.
Adjusting the flavor is simple. If you’re not a fan of allspice or cloves, you can reduce or eliminate.
Whenever you run out, you don’t have to make a trip to the store. Just make another batch!
It’s a great way to use up those big bottles of spices in your pantry. While I may not use every one of these ingredients a lot, they are exceptional in a spice blend like this one. It’s the perfect use for spices you don’t find yourself using on their own that often.
I love including a bottle with some homemade pumpkin treats for friends and neighbors. It’s always appreciated and I know they’ll use it.
What Can I Make with Pumpkin Pie Spice
This tasty spice blend is delicious in all sorts of baked goods such as breads, cakes, pies, muffins, cookies – you get the idea! I have about a million recipes that use pumpkin pie spice on my site but let me just share a few of my favorite recipe here:
Slow Cooker Pumpkin Butter – this easy pumpkin butter is perfect on biscuits, scones or licked off of a spoon!
