If you bake one thing during this pandemic / quarantine sitch, it has got to be these cookies. Last year, I shared a copycat of my all time favorite Levain cookie: the divine chocolate peanut butter. However, their original, which is a classic chocolate chip with walnuts, is a VERY close second. Stella Parks at … More Levain Style Chocolate Chip Cookies
For pretty much every holiday, I’m craving something with peanut butter! See examples here, here, and here. I make my crispy peanut butter balls every year for cookie exchanges (and pretty much once a month just because 🤷🏼‍♀️). So I wanted to make an Easter version with white chocolate. These really could not be an … More No Bake Peanut Butter Balls (Perfect for Easter!)
Welp. I usually try and mix things up over here so a back to back bread sitch isn’t exactly what I planned. Buuuut we had some old bananas and Andrew was jonesing for some banana bread… so here we are! If you know anything about CrossFit, one of the most well known athletes is Mat … More Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread
I’m not reeeaaally a chocolate dessert person, until I am. All it takes is a lil hankering for chocolate and it’s truly all I can think about. Recently I was jonesing for some classic crinkle top brownies… you know the kind that has a lighter colored top that almost looks paper thin? I found a … More Fudgy Crinkle Top Brownies
I’ve made many, many rice krispie treats over the years, and without fail every time they end up being kind of crunchy and frankly not that enjoyable. I came across this trick which incorporates sweetened condensed milk and I was blown away with how absolutely delicious and soft these remained over time (let’s be honest … More Brown Butter Soft Rice Krispie Treats
Hey guys…remember me? 🙂 Things have been so crazy this year at my day job…but I’m hoping to get back into the swing of things and into more regular posting!! Even though my last recipe was also a cookie — I’ve been spending a lot of time searching and testing Levain cookie copycat recipes. If … More Levain Style Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
If you’re on Instagram, and follow a minimum of one food blogger, chances are you saw THE COOKIES last year. Alison Roman developed these cookies with a shortbread base and chocolate chunks, which are cut from logs and rolled in sugar before baking. So, being a diligent food blogger, I made them…I made them again, (just … More Toffee Chocolate Chunk Shortbread Cookies
Listen. I’m not telling you to go through all the effort required to make this pie. I’m just saying that multiple people who ate this pie told me it was their new favorite dessert. So, you decide. (Make the damn pie. It’s delicious.) To make the dough, whisk together the flour and salt. Add in … More Citrus Chess Pie
You can’t scroll for 2 minutes on Instagram without finding a Pumpkin dessert recipe, but when I was trying to find something new to make, I looked no further than one of the most inspirational accounts: ZoeBakes. She has THE BEST instastories, where she makes (sometimes) complicated desserts and other recipes look like a breeze. … More Salted Dark Chocolate Pepita Crunch Bars (No Bake)
I’ve always been a savory breakfast person, and the recipes I make definitely reflect that! However, when I have a hankering for something sweet (but want to exert little effort as possible), I will reach for cinnamon cereal. This is the only cereal I buy, and usually after a bowl or two I’m satisfied for … More Cinnamon Square Marshmallow Treats
This recipe has come up many times on my instagram feed over the year, and I finally got to making them a few weeks back. I’m sorry to say I should NOT have waited so long!!! Fresh out of the oven, these cookies were the gooey, chocolatey, nutty cookies of my dreams. The tahini was a … More Brown Butter Tahini Chocolate Chunk Cookies
In the heat of late July, it pains me to have to turn on the oven. However, occasionally I’ll see a recipe that will force me to wake up early just so I can crank it up. This is THE recipe. I shared this cake in my office recently and it was quite the hit. … More Blueberry Crumb Cake
A couple weeks ago, one of my favorite Instagram accounts (Husbands That Cook) was making brownies on their insta-live. I popped in to watch for what I assumed would be a few minutes, but then ended up engulfed in watching the whole thing. To be honest, I’m not really a huge brownie fan, but once … More Sea Salt Brownies
In the very hottest days of summer, as much as I love chocolate desserts, I’m usually craving something a bit lighter. Also considering my wedding is about 9 weeks away (AHHHHH!!!!) I’ve been trying to make healthier desserts that don’t leave me feeling deprived. These lemon poppyseed baked donuts are almost as good as the … More Lemon Poppyseed Baked Donuts
There’s no denying my obsession with brown butter, it made its way into my favorite blondies of all time (which I created into a business!), and snuck its way into my banana bread. Honestly, it’s good in everything. One of my most favorite ways to incorporate brown butter though, is along with chocolate and sea … More Toffee Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
