Fundraiser for No Kid Hungry

August 29, 2020 By Lindsay Forbes Leave a Comment

chocolate chip cookie spatula from Williams Sonoma

Williams Sonoma sells a line of celebrity-designed spatulas in order to support No Kid Hungry, a non-profit organization with the mission of ending childhood hunger in America. The sale of just one spatula is enough to provide meals for FORTY children in need.

According to the USDA, more than 11 million children in the United States live in “food insecure” homes. This means that these families do not have enough food to live healthy lifestyles.

No Kid Hungry offers many different meal programs and educational opportunities. They partner with local schools and community programs to do research and advocate for policy changes. They estimate that childhood hunger may currently be getting worse due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you are looking for a way to help this organization do their important work, pick up a spatula from Williams Sonoma! They have a number of different designs from celebrities such as Ina Garten, Kristen Bell, Molly Yeh, Dolly Parton, and others. Check them out below. Which one is your favorite?

In addition to being sold for a good cause, these spatulas are very high quality! The spatula head is sturdy and the wooden handle is nice and smooth. I chose to break in my spatula designed by Gaby Dalkin with her “The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies.”

This cookie recipe is unique because it calls for cake flour and bread flour as opposed to all-purpose flour. These flours have different amount of protein content which impacts the texture and tenderness of the cookie. I loved how these were soft and chewy and even stayed soft and chewy the next day- we ate them before we could test them for longer periods 🙂

Cake Flour: 10% protein

All-Purpose Flour: 11.7% protein

Bread Flour: 12.7% protein

This is a great article about different flours if you are interested in learning more.

The other thing that is unique about these cookies is that the dough chilled for 72 hours…. you read that right… 72 HOURS!!! Chilling dough before baking is important because it hardens the fats again which reduces spread and increased chewiness. I have never waited 72 hours before. These cookies were very yummy but I think next time I will try just an overnight chill 🙂

If you are looking for a new chocolate chip cookie recipe to try, I would definitely recommend this one!

And don’t forget to order a matching spatula 🙂

Happy Easter! 🐰 I posted this new recipe for a Happy Easter! 🐰 I posted this new recipe for a Tropical Coconut Carrot Cake Loaf and I think you will love it!The cake batter is filled with shredded carrots and warm spices but it also has mashed bananas in it (a trick I learned from @ambitiouskitchen). The bananas add sweetness and moisture, giving the cake a perfect texture. I topped it with a coconut buttercream and toasted coconut flakes to complement the banana. Check out AnchoredBaking.com for the recipe! I hope you give it a try :).....#happyeaster #carrotcake #bananavread #coconutcake #carrotcakeloaf #quickbread #smallbatchbaking #coconutfrosting #tropicaltreats #eastercake #easterbaking #springbaking #cakeforbreakfast #anchoredbaking #thebakefeed #wsbakeclub

Fromage Blanc, Honeycomb, and Fig Viennoiserie fro Fromage Blanc, Honeycomb, and Fig Viennoiserie from The Pastry School by @julie_jonesuk Fig season is short but it is sweet! This pastry has a flaky, buttery crunch, fig jam, fromage blanc, and honeycomb. Each bite is filled with delicious flavors. Julie's instructions for the laminated dough were super clear and easy to follow. Check out my stories to see how these were prepped for baking -- I do wish I had something heavier than beans!I ran all over town looking for fromage blanc (thank you @thecheeseshop!) but I think goat cheese would be just as yummy. I also thought about adding some toasted walnuts to the filling. Luckily, I know I will be making these again so I will try next time :)Julie's book is full of creative and beautiful recipes - nothing short of artwork! This cookbook would make a great gift for the bakers in your life that like "projects" ;) Thank you, @chubbeekitchen, for showcasing this book and influencing my purchase!

Mango Coconut Cheesecake Aloha from Maui where it Mango Coconut CheesecakeAloha from Maui where it is definitely NOT fall 😉This cheesecake has a coconut graham cracker crust which is a subtle but pleasant surprise. The cheesecake batter is made with cream cheese and coconut milk making it extra creamy and delicious! I am most excited about the mango gelée layer which is made with mango puree and gelatine. It offers a nice fruity flavor, a complementing texture, and a beautiful smooth display. I dreamed of this cheesecake for a long time and I am so happy with the way it came out. I hope you love this recipe :)Check out AnchoredBaking.com where I am also talking about all the different kinds of mangos you can find on Hawai'i. These mangos are from Yee's Orchard stand and they are so sweet and juicy. Best mangos I have ever found! Do you have any favorite mango recipes?It is still in the high 80s here in Maui with plenty of sunshine and warm waters! I am not ready for all this pumpkin spice. Are you ready for fall baking?.....#homemadecheesecake #cheesecake #bakedcheesecake #coconutcheesecake #mangococonutcheesecake #itmustbethephilly #mauibaker #mauiblogger #mango #mangoseason #anchoredbaking #feedfeed #foodblogfeed #foodtographyschool #f52grams #f52community #thebakefeed #thekitchn #bakefromscratch #feedfeedbaking #ediblehi #hawaiianfoodmagazine #eatlocalgrown
Today is Julia Child's birthday! She would have be Today is Julia Child's birthday! She would have been 109 years old. In celebration, I made one of her favorite desserts- Crêpes Suzette!You start by making a stack of crêpes. Then you coat each crêpe in a caramelized orange butter sauce, fold them in quarters, sprinkle them with sugar and flablé with orange liqueur and brandy. This is traditionally done tableside because it is quite a show with the flames!I recently finished reading "My Life in France" co-authored by Julia Child and Alex Prud'homme (her husband's brother's grandson). This book gave me a whole new appreciation for her perspective on life. You could just feel her joy and sense of humor. I highly recommend reading it :) This book also details the writing process for Mastering the Art of French Cooking (which includes this recipe for Crêpes Suzette). It is fascinating and might just be my new favorite book.Check out my post today on AnchoredBaking.com to learn more about Julia Child and my experience making this dessert.
