Exploring Cooking & Science
There’s chemistry involved every time we cook, and our ultimate goal is to Student-Proof our recipes so no one has to do any guesswork. All of our recipes include supplemental information about the science of what you’re trying to make, explained in a way anyone could understand.
Orange & Bourbon Gingerbread Loaf
Every year, gingerbread cookies dominate the holiday scene. The unsung hero of Christmas desserts is a heavily spiced gingerbread loaf with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. This loaf is infused with ginger, orange, zest, and bourbon, the perfect combination to warm you inside and out on a cold snowy night. This moist cake is made only better with the strong winter spices that come through with every bite!
Whiskey & Raspberry Chocolate Mousse
Delicious and simple, this alcoholic mousse makes you feel like a pastry chef by utilizing the natural stabilizing chemistry of egg whites rather than the traditional chilling method! The rich chocolate is cut through perfectly by the natural tartness of raspberries and is only elevated further by the savoury characteristics of whiskey.
