When it comes to cookies, I’m always looking for something new and delicious. The last cookie recipe that I threw together was the Oreo Chunk Cookies, soft sugar cookies packed with Oreo chunks and topped with Oreo crumbs. Those were a big hit. Soon after the last cookies, I came across a recipe for red velvet cookies, andRead More
Apple Cinnamon Muffins
For those of you in the Southeast, you’re probably familiar with the lack of snow that we get around here. The last time we had significant snow here was three years ago, and it’s something we don’t even get on a yearly basis. So, naturally, when we know it’s coming, the grocery stores get insanelyRead More
Peanut Butter Fudge
As I’ve mentioned before, my family is a bunch of peanut butter nuts. A lot of times, the in-laws in our family either chuckle or roll their eyes when yet another peanut butter dish comes into the house, and this would be a good example. The first time I made this was several years ago,Read More
Angry Birds Birthday Cake and Cake Pops
My nephew is a HUGE fan of Angry Birds, so this year when his 5th birthday rolled around, my sister-in-law decided to do Angry Birds as the theme for his party. She’s really big into cake decorating as well, so I asked if there was anything I could make that would go along with theRead More
Butterscotch Blondie Bundt Cake
Over the years, I’ve made several different flavors of bundt cakes, and I’m always up for a new adventure when it comes to a different flavored bundt cake that has not been experimented with in my kitchen. Now that I’m getting deeper into culinary school and learning so much more information than I ever could’veRead More
Oreo Chunk Cookies
Last week, I saw some Oreos in my cabinet while searching through my ingredients to see what else to make. And since Oreos are so popular, why not throw chunks of them into a cookie just like we do with chocolate chips and nuts? So, I got started. These are a lot like soft chocolateRead More
Black Bean Veggie Burgers
I don’t know about you, but I didn’t eat so healthy over the holidays. All of the amazing cookies, chocolates, casseroles, gravy, stuffing, cakes, and everything else you could possibly think of that’s NOT healthy for you…that’s what I ate. Oh wait, I believe there was a green veggie or two squeezed in there, althoughRead More
Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes
Years ago when my brother just started dating his wife, he was telling me about how she’s really into making desserts. He started to describe something that she made for him recently, and he was saying it was the best chocolate dessert he’d ever had. So, of course that sparked my curiosity. When I askedRead More
Chicken Noodle Soup
Well, it’s a brand new year…AND it’s cold outside. So, how about starting out the new year with a healthy, delicious, warm and satisfying classic comfort food? Okay then, let’s do it! After making the chicken and corn chowder, I had to make more soups. You can actually use the same procedures with this soupRead More
Strawberry Cheesecake Trifle
Lately, I’ve been thinking about different trifles to make. Several years ago when I couldn’t find a recipe for an Oreo Trifle, I made one up myself…and it was amazing. So, I’ve been brainstorming about different types of trifles to put together. As I was thinking about strawberries and cheesecake, the though of having theseRead More
