Promiscu-Puffs
Look up promiscuousย in any dictionary, and you’ll see words like easy and fast. Not complimentary for people, (you know who you are,) but when it comes to recipes, easy is a very good thing!ย Promiscu-Puffs are wonderful pastry with filling and fruit.
We’ve come a long way from thinking that food had to be complicated and time-consuming to be worthwhile. Those bad old days were when a host wouldn’t serve anything that hadn’t first taken them through the seven dreaded stages of food prep.ย Ultimately including,ย fear, loathing, blood, sweat, tears, terror, and finally,ย a successful offering that you never wanted to make again.
Happily, those days have been replaced with an appreciation for both food creation and the spicy adult beverages that make entertainment fun. “Easy” may be subjective, but we can all agree that food doesn’t have to be challenging to be delicious.ย If we don’t make things easier for ourselves, who will? So go ahead, be promiscuous in the kitchen. I promise you’ll like it.
