German buttercream has gotten a bad name for being too soft to pipe or use to frost cakes, but it’s not so! Use this soft, creamy goodness on refrigerated cakes or as a filling for donuts, cakes, and cupcakes. You start with pastry cream and end up with an amazing, rich buttercream. It doesn’t even taste like buttercream. This German buttercream recipe is much better! It tastes like pastry cream.

Gluten Free Sun-Dried Tomato Bread Recipe
I just had to create a gluten free sun-dried tomato bread with some Parmesan cheese. I love creating recipes that contain food to which I’m allergic, tomatoes in this case. I enjoy living vicariously through my husband’s meals. He thoroughly enjoyed this bread. He said that he could taste the Parmesan but didn’t recognize the sun-dried tomatoes. He did, however, note that whatever it was, was a little sweet. So, obviously the sun-dried tomatoes are not overpowering, but add just the right something to this lovely bread. I’m thinking it would make an awesome grilled cheese sandwich. He agreed but had his first piece as soon as I sliced the loaf along with some margarine.
