Nutella Chocolate Chip Cookies

Nutella, where have you been all my life?!?! Wow! I can’t believe I’ve waited this long to try nutella. I’ve always wanted to try it, but didn’t want to buy an entire container in case I didn’t like it. Well, at the grocery store recently they were giving out samples of nutella on strawberries. Mouth […]

Weeknight S’mores

It’s Tuesday night and those “late night munch-ies” strike. I’ve got a hankering for s’mores, but there’s no campfire in sight. What’s a girl to do?? There’s no time to make these delectable s’mores cookies, brownies, or bars, because it’s almost bedtime. Here’s the solution, make your own s’mores any night of the week in […]

OH MY WORD!! That is all I can say. These cupcakes are amazing and easily my new favorites. I think I might make them for myself for my birthday later this month even!:) If you have a party coming up or a cookout you need to make these. Seriously that good! I made these for […]

Raw Chocolate Coconut Bites

So the past few weeks I have really tried to get back on track with eating healthy. I am working to start cutting back on the amount of processed foods that we eat and try to eat more cleanly. In the next couple of weeks, I hope to post some healthy options, starting with these […]

Chocoalte Eclair Crepe Cake

When looking for a dessert recipe to make for our olympics party, I came across this chocolate eclair crepe cake I had pulled from my Everyday with Rachael Ray magazine. I have always wanted to make crepes but had always strayed away since you need to serve them hot most of the time and that […]

Perfect Hot Cocoa

This past weekend we got our first real snow in such a long time. You know, the kind you can actually play in. Adam & I took full advantage of it and had a snowball fight, went sledding and even built a snowman with our neighbor. It was so fun. Since it was so cold, […]

Chocolate Caramel Cookie Bars

Hot Chocolate Surprise Cookies

I was flipping through my Martha Stewart Cookies Cookbook when I was trying to decide what to make for my holiday baking and came across these gems.

Peppermint Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

This past weekend I had a cookie swap to attend and so I went perusing foodnetwork.com to find a recipe. I came across these peppermint chocolate sandwich cookies by Giada and thought they sounded fun and looked festive. It called for refrigerated sugar cookie dough, but I decided to make my own using Ashlee’s Fabulous […]

I actually made these last Thanksgiving, but just never got around to posting them. They were really good and everyone kept going back for more. I […]
