mélange: a mixture often of incongruous elements
I have a love affair with cookies and prefer them soft, not crunchy. Although peanut butter cookies are fantastic, I always have almond butter on hand so I thought I’d replace the standard PB. It adds an extra bit of protein to these fabulous cookies so I can also experience a bit less guilt.
It’s a cold, rainy day today which is a great excuse to bake (not that I really need an excuse). I really wanted a delicious vanilla cupcake but I wanted to make it more creative…so I thought tie-dye! They came out very pretty and I topped it off with silky vanilla buttercream. Delicious!
If you are a butter-lover like I am, you will enjoy this. I’ve mad several buttercream’s and this one is silky & decadent. It’s a keeper!
Shout out to The Curvy Carrot where I found this fantastic recipe. These cupcakes really do taste like a Shirley Temple. When I was young, I loved this beverage and since I don’t drink alcohol, I’m thinking I may need to revisit it.
These are so much better than the ones you buy at the store! Make homemade s’mores with my graham cracker recipe and a piece of chocolate. Fabulous!
These graham crackers are better than store-bought and you can use any cookie cutter you’d like. I also made marshmallows and I happen to have some chocolate laying around…so it’s s’mores time!
Scones are usually served with tea, but these are great with coffee. The espresso and chocolate will also wake you right up!
I made a ton of cookies this holiday season..it’s my stress reliever. Out of all of them, these were my favorite. They will knock your socks off!
I am one of those chicks that loves pumpkin in everything during autumn…I have no shame. These are super moist and a cinch to make. The cupcakes contain only three ingredients and the frosting is also simple to prepare.
I’ve had several Thanksgiving side dishes with brussel sprouts and squash which I love, but I thought bacon would be a good addition to kick it up a notch. I love the combination of maple and bacon and it makes vegetables oh so yummy.
