šŸ° Community doesn’t always start with big actions; sometimes it starts with a cake!

Birthdays can be incredibly lonely for a lot of seniors, which is why I’m sharing these recipes for , a program that delivers birthday cakes and cards to seniors in NYC area who might otherwise spend the day alone, just a reminder that someone thought of them and wanted to celebrate them!

AND If you don’t bake or don’t live near NYC, you can still help: $18 sponsors a cake šŸŽ‚

How to get involved:
• donate a cake
• share the project

✨Sometimes they hit and sometimes they don’t…..here are a few that I think deserve a second chance!

1) Chole Runza - basically a Desi hot pocket!
2) Gulab Jamun Boba - super easy to make and def cheaper than your local boba shop!
3) Coconut Burfi Brookies - like a brownie mounds bar!
4) Eggless Mango Cheesecake Bars - another SUPER simple recipe!
5) Squiggle Cookies - I mean just look at how fun they are!
6) Pomegranate Mint Pani - a unique paninis that I thought peel would be intrigued by!
7) Cornflake Chevdo and Peda cookies - thought it was weird enough to get ppl talking!

Don’t get me wrong! A viral recipe is fun and all! But honestly? What I love most is the process of recipe developing and seeing YOU recreate dishes from my blog, even if it’s just one person! Those DMs and tags mean so much more than any algorithm ever could!!

šŸ‹ SAVE this recipe If you’re drowning in lemons or looking for an easy make ahead game day dessert or just want to celebrate citrus season my simple eggless lemon cream pie is the perfect recipe!

This recipe has just a handful of ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to put together!

And if you’re feeling particularly lazy, you can use a storebought graham cracker crust to make it even easier (i don’t judge!)! If you do use storebought crusts - you can make two pies since their shallower than homemade pie tins!

Make one 9 inch pie
2 cups (200 g) graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
1/2 tsp kosher salt
5 tbsp (70 g) unsalted butter, melted

Filling
1/4 cup (56 g) cream cheese
1/4 cup (56 g) sour cream
two (14 oz) cans sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Preheat oven to 350°F.

In a bowl, add graham crackers, sugar, and salt and whisk until well combined. Add melted butter and mix until you have a wet-sand-like texture. Pour the crumbs into a pie plate and use your hands or a flat-bottom measuring cup to press the crumbs into the sides and bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake the crust for 8 minutes and then cool completely.

To make the filling, add sour cream, cream cheese, and sweetened condensed milk into a large mixing bowl. Mix for 3 minutes, or until completely smooth. Add lemon juice, salt and vanilla and mix for 2 minutes. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and use a spatula to smooth the top into an even layer. Bake for 10 minutes.

Cool the pie completely before chilling for at least 4 hours, overnight is best.

When ready to serve, top with whipped cream, lemon wedges, edible flowers, or sprinkles. Decorate it however you like! Serve while chilled.

šŸ‘— āž”ļø šŸŽ‚ Since Paris Fashion week and award season is coming to a close I thought I’d share my Runways to Recipes series where I made desserts inspired by desi designers! I’ve always found clothing and textiles to be extremely inspiring for my work and this is a good reminder that inspiration can truly come from anywhere!!
