Yesterday, I made a cake. It was a very special cake, but a cake for which you all will have to wait (so I can do it justice!) But today I find myself studying away on a grey and blustery afternoon, in dire need of a little snack. I should note that, upon completion of the aforementioned cake, a glorious amount of frosting remained, unused, in the bowl. And I was then given a particularly valuable piece of knowledge which I shall now share with you: "Eat leftover frosting on graham crackers."
And so I did! (Well, actually, as I'm doing right now...) The graham crackers are cinnamon-sugar. The frosting is Blueberry-Lemon Cream Cheese. The combination should not be legal.
Imagine tart blueberry yogurt, made thick and creamy and then sticky-sweet. But it's still blueberry tart, (I think that's where the lemon helps out a bit.) On the cake it was almost too much. On the graham crackers, however, it makes the afternoon lovely, cozy, and sweet as the cracker crumbles and blueberries dance through your mind. (I swear it's not actually hallucinatory, though it is purple.)
Oh, and rose tea happens to pair particularly well.
