I’ve been on a cookie baking craze lately. Last week, I started with the Best, Most Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies, and this week it’s all about the peanut butter cookie. These aren’t your typical peanut butter cookie that you throw together and criss cross the top with a fork. No these are special. These are …

It’s time for Peanut Butter Brownies! I’m doing my good deed of the year by sharing this downright heavenly recipe with you all today. This may just be the best thing I’ve ever made. When my husband tried them, I swear to you his eyes rolled back in his head and he almost fainted. They …

I think everyone has had chocolate chip cookies at some point. Some of us have had more than others. 😉 We all have our favorite recipe whether it is from the back of the Nestle chocolate chip bag or from their great-grandmother’s recipe box. My favorite recipe is from trial and error. Since I was …

As a child, the only popsicles I ever ate were either Otter Pops or Jello Pudding Pops. While both of those are AMAZING in their own right (oh, Bill Cosby what I wouldn’t give for one of those vanilla/chocolate swirl treats right now) the notion that you could actually make your own never crossed my …

As a cook or a baker, many times things work out perfectly. The cake rises just enough. The frosting is the perfect consistency. The brownies were oh-so-gooey. Annnndddd… then there are other times. You have the best intention of creating a masterpiece and it sounds amazing in your head. Until you realize the finished product …

You all are in for a big treat today because I am sharing one heck of an amazing recipe! My husband doesn’t work in a typical office setting. He works outdoors all day so he isn’t able to store any lunches in a fridge and he can’t use a microwave to heat anything up. This …

It’s time for Pretzel Crusted Caramel Brownies. This weekend we have family coming into town for my daughter’s First Communion. Now, you know when my family gets together it means that I need to get my baking hat on and whip up some great desserts. I’ve already had some requests for the Pumpkin Crunch Cake …

It’s time for a Twix Brownie Recipe. This weekend we were invited to our neighbor’s house to hang out. Well, really they invited another couple over for the afternoon and they wanted us there to bring more conversation. You know, make it less awkward. We aren’t shy people so they figured we would come in …

I recently hosted a baby shower for two friends, both of whom are having their second child. Both moms wanted something low key because it was their second child, but I couldn’t have a baby shower without a little bit of a theme. A teenie weenie little smidge of a theme was necessary to elevate …

Ready for a healthy treat that the whole family can enjoy? Whip up this chocolate avocado pudding in less than 5 minutes, let it sit overnight, and BOOM!, dessert is served! Now, a little side note … if you’re thinking this is gonna be a super rich “normal” type of pudding, this isn’t it. This …

I love baking homemade cookies. I decided to take my original chocolate chip cookie recipe and kick it up a few chocolate notches and add cocoa powder to make chocolate-chocolate chip cookies.  I have to admit this was my 6 year olds idea for our chocolate theme this month.  He would eat everything chocolate if …

It’s time to celebrated Valentine’s Day with Chocolate Covered Pretzels. In keeping with the chocolate theme for this month I made chocolate covered pretzels.  In my opinion the perfect snack is both salty and sweet. This snack is super easy to make and my two little assistants really enjoyed sprinkling the toppings and drizzling the …
