Yesterday I made mini desserts: three types of cheesecakes and brownie bites. I searched the internet for quite some time looking for a great brownie recipe. I decided on a recipe that claimed to yield a deep dish brownie because I really do not enjoy the thin variety. I think brownies, like chocolate chip cookies, …
When I think of summer desserts, S’mores immediately come to mind! However, I am lacking a fire pit, I despise camping and quite frankly, I am not the outdoorsy type. So, when I saw this recipe, it sounded like a great way to enjoy S’mores, sans covering myself in citronella and sunscreen. I found this …
I love apples, especially Granny Smith apples! I had a bunch of them in the fridge, so I decided to make apple crisp. However, I did not stop there, I also made a homemade vanilla bean ice cream in my beloved Kitchen Aid ice cream maker attachment. I have made ice cream several times since …
I had leftover bittersweet chocolate from the Caramel-Peanut Topped Brownie Cake that I made last week. I turned to Dorie Greenspan’s book, Baking: From My Home to Yours.

I made two varieties; White Chocolate Macadamia Nut (these are one of my dad’s faves) and Milk Chocolate Chip. I followed the basic Tollhouse recipe except for switching out half the butter for butter flavored Crisco. …
This recipe is called My Amish Friend’s Caramel Corn, but sadly I have no amish friends, so I changed the title. To be honest, I have no idea what makes it “Amish” besides the fact that it originated from an Amish family. Random Flashback/Tip: I remember being in high school home economics and making caramel …
I have used this banana cake recipe from Allrecipes several times, especially when I have buttermilk hanging around in the fridge. This time I decided to make cupcakes and frost with my friend, Em’s, Magnificent Cream Cheese Icing. I decided to make these in different varieties, so some had walnuts, some had chocolate chips, and …
I ordered Dorie Greenspan’s book, Baking: From My Home to Yours. This book is actually what compelled me to create this blog, well, that and my mild photography obsession. This recipe involves a brownie cake base topped with a caramel peanut sauce. In one word, I would describe this as rich… really, really rich! I …
