Polly’s Yorkshire Puddings

PollyNovember 19, 2024August 28, 2025

Every good English roast dinner needs Yorkshire Puddings and gravy. My aunts made Yorkshire Puddings like it was nothing. They just whipped them out, popped them in the oven, and every one turned out perfectly. Not so for me. To…

Today I am sharing a White Chocolate Spice Cookie recipe. This cookie is deliciously spicy from the black pepper in the dough, and deliciously decadent because of the white chocolate decoration, mmmm. It’s a cookie for grown ups! My friend Kayte…

This is the cake I wanted for my birthday this year and it’s what a friend requested for her birthday a few months ago. It’s a fabulous trifecta of chocolate: semi sweet chocolate in a brownie-like cake on the bottom,…

Pumpkin-Chocolate Cake

PollyOctober 25, 2023August 28, 2025

This is the BEST cake to serve at this time of year (or any other time of the year, actually)!  It’s a good chocolate cake – a very, very good chocolate cake; it’s moist, and nicely chocolate-y, and made richer with some pumpkin…

It’s that time of year—let the fall baking commence! I’ve started with these Pumpkin Spice Latte Biscotti, my entry for my cookbook club’s ‘Pumpkin Dessert Showstopper Challenge‘ last year—sometimes we act like we are contestants on the mythical ‘Great American…

About Me

polly of the kitchen

It's all about the recipe—really, it is! I have amassed quite a collection of recipes from my favorite cookbooks, food magazines, friends, the Internet, and more recently my adult daughters. I test every recipe I post. Some I've been cooking for years, decades even, and a few I have made only a few times. I don't post mediocre recipes. I don't post good recipes. I post GREAT recipes! When I find a recipe I LOVE, I can't wait to share it. I started In the Kitchen with Polly on January 01, 2010, a joint venture between myself and my non-cooking but most excellent webmaster, proofreader, technical goddess and all-around bestie, ratty (not a joke—ratty is her chosen nickname—her Mama didn’t do that to her, she did it to herself!). Last year we hit a snag—the website went up in monstrous flames. It took a long time to sort out what happened and even longer to recreate what was lost. Hundreds of pictures gone, and every recipe we posted (300+) over the last 14 years had to be reformatted, many pictures retaken. It's done now though, and we are back! I like this brighter version :) Scroll through! Find something you like, and let's get cooking! There’s a search button and there are also tags to click on if you want to find a recipe for a specific food. If you need it, the print button is on the preview page and at the end of each post.

Enjoy!
