Made some cherry kolace and had some left over. Decided to take the leftovers and make some chocolate bread pudding. With a little vanilla bourbon sauce.

Testing the final batch of tamales - have to say the final product of Guinness stew tamales is pretty darn good.

Cinnamon rolls - who in their right mind can resist them? Cinnamon, a hint of nutmeg and a silky smooth frosting. I even caught the dog trying to steal one. Where do you get yours? #cheflife #foodie #privatedinner #catering #goodfood #yum #Cinnamonrolls #nomnom #baking #pastry

The first ever, as far as I can tell, Guinness stew tamale. Just one last tweak to the masa and I think that'll be a wrap! #chef #cheflife #foodie #privatedinner #centralcoast #catering #goodfood #yum #tamale #irishpride #irishstew #nomnom #guinness #guinnessstew

Now that's some good looking shrimp! How would YOU prepare them? #shrimp #seafood #yummy #nomnom #cheflife

[Chef Charles Doherty @ChefCDoherty]

@PrasadJason @SerranoWine Butter and garlic really is the perfect pairing with shrimp

[Chef Charles Doherty @ChefCDoherty]

@yehonala04 Sounds like a winner to me!
