Despite having a rhubarb plant in my backyard growing up, I had never eaten rhubarb as the star ingredient in a recipe until this cake! Every time rhubarb season arose, my mom would cut our rhubarb and then pick (or buy) strawberries to make her pie, tart, or jam recipe. I certainly didn’t understand the … More Rhubarb Breakfast Cake
I’m back! If you saw on my instagram feed, I recently got married 🙂 I didn’t anticipate taking a break from the blog, but wedding planning (especially in the last few weeks leading up to the big day!) kind of overtook my life for a little while. I’m happy to say Andrew and I had … More Sweet and Spicy Pepperoni Pizza
I go through somewhat extreme phases when it comes to food. For example, I ate brussels sprouts every week for months (maybe even years) but randomly hit a brussels sprout wall and didn’t touch them for like 6 months following. I’m finally back in brussels sprouts land, and diving in head first. This recipe is nothing new, … More Sweet and Spicy Bacon Brussels Sprouts
This past weekend, I so desperately needed a freshly baked cookie, that I almost walked to our local bodega and bought pre-made cookie dough. I decided to give my Pinterest board a once-over and see if anything stood out as easy and/or fast. I came across this recipe for possibly the easiest blondies ever. Averie’s recipe calls … More Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Blondies
It’s no secret that I am basically obsessed with caramel & apples. It’s one of those combos that I want, not just in the fall, but all-year-long! There’s something about the tartness of the apples against the sweet flavor of caramel that just goes together perfectly. This recipe combines those things but takes it a … More Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars
If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve probably noticed that I had some adventures in Thailand and Myanmar recently! Not to brag or anything, but we had sunny 90 degree weather pretty much everyday…and my mouth will never be the same after eating the most delicious Asian and Indian dishes ever. I’ve been thinking about … More Orange Chocolate Pound Cake
You guys, I. just. can. not. Since finding this blondie recipe a month ago, I’ve made them 3 times, and have loved them more each time. Gaby keeps them as a straightforward blondie, but I amped things up a bit with brown butter. The nuttiness and depth of flavor that this simple step adds is so incredible I can … More Brown Butter Snickerdoodle Blondies
You guys, do not make this. I promise you you’ll regret it. This is one of those recipes that is 100,000,000 times greater than the sum of it’s parts. I barely even like white chocolate, but for some reason when it’s coated on top of a random mix of things, it becomes literal crack. So, … More Peanut Butter & White Chocolate Holiday Crack
Am I writing two recipes in two weeks with caramel and apples? You bet I am! Until snow falls to the ground (I’m NOT asking for it, but just saying…) I’m just going to continue down this beautifully foliage-d path. I have a love of blondies that is well documented here, so obviously after I … More Salted Caramel Apple Blondies
I keep a fairly long list of ‘to-make’ recipes in a variety of spots (pinterest, my iPhone’s notepad, bookmarks, post-its on cookbooks, etc). A lot of the time, these recipes remain there for months (or longer), some even get forgotten forever (I’m sorry homemade pho, I will make you one day!). Somehow, I legit can’t … More Cookies and Cream Chocolate Chip Cookies
