Do you remember your first Chex mix? I vividly remember the first salty, crunchy handful of Chex cereal mixed with pretzels and spices. It was intoxicating and completely addicting. Playing with Chex cereals to create different mixes, blends, holiday recipes etc… is something that I find great pleasure in, and I’ve been known…
What cookie takes you on a trip back to childhood? What cookie whisks you back to flour coated faces, sticky fingers, and snatching barely cooled straight-out-of-the-oven-still-too-hot-to-eat cookies? One bite of an Oatmeal Scotchie sends me straight back to my Granny’s kitchen. Straight back to fighting with my brothers over pouring, stirring, mixing, spoon licking, and…
Perhaps I should have called this slightly tipsy, just a little bit adult cranberry avocado pumpkin bread? C’est la vie. For the past year or so I’ve been playing around with different pumpkin bread recipes, because I adore the rich, creamy, subtle flavor that pumpkin adds to bread, and because Fall, y’all. I have…
Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches with Hershey’s Syrup and a Giveaway! There’s something about an ice cream sandwich that simply makes me happy. Delicious, creamy, smooth, ice cream sandwiched between two hunks of chocolate. Yes. Please and Thank You. I have so many memories that involve sitting on sun-warmed curbs licking the ice cream from the…
Let’s talk about turning banana splits on their sides – because it’s summer and that means grilling, but it also means ice cream, and Hershey’s Syrup so I combined my love for both, and I’m here to tell you; the result is mouth-watering, delectable, sweet, rich, and bottom of the bowl lickable good. Grilling fruits…
Do you remember Dirt Cakes? Chocolate cake and pudding topped with crushed chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs and candy worms? Both shudder worthy and totally delicious. What kid doesn’t love pretending to eat worms and dirt?
Is there anything more cozy and comforting than walking into a house that smells of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies? There’s a reason that real estate specialists and home stylists pop a tray of chocolate chip cookies into the oven prior to open houses and showings…. Chocolate Chip Cookies are one of the ultimate feel…
I love homemade ice cream, but I don’t have an ice cream maker – so I’m limited as to what homemade ice creams I can have. Ever since making the Spiked Peach Cobbler Ice Cream with Bourbon Caramel Sauce, I’ve been a bit obsessed with the ease of making super creamy, rich ice cream and…
Chewy, rich dark chocolate cookies, dipped in creamy white chocolate and topped with crushed candy canes. I am so excited to be a part of this year’s Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap, the brainchild of two people whom I absolutely adore: Julie and Lindsay. If you want to learn more about the Great Food Blogger…
Sugar. Bourbon. Pecans. Chocolate. All good things, yes? One of my very favorite desserts of all time is my Texas Chocolate Sheet Cake, it was even featured on the Williams-Sonoma blog! Y’all know I can’t leave anything alone, and as much as I love the tradition of my family’s Sheet Cake recipe, and all…
This post in entitled “Diet Restricted” because depending on how you do it it can be for your friends on the Paleo diet or someone that is gluten free or just trying to cut down on carbs or no sugar or very little sugar. You’ll see when you read the recipe, but it is great…
I know y’all clicked over today to see the recipe for these amazing Apple Spiced Rum Cakes with Apple Cider Caramel Glaze, but first I have to tell y’all about Meseidy. This past summer I spoke at BlogHer Food in Austin, while I was pacing the hallway running over 75 different things I remember eyes that…
