The Good, The Bad, The Babkah
This will be a quick post about my first attempt at babkah. Let’s just say it wasn’t a complete fail but it also wasn’t a win either.
Pinwheel cookies
What’s better than a cutout sugar cookie? A cute pinwheel cookie because it’s both vanilla and chocolate! It takes my simple cut out sugar cookie and adds another delicious element and design. Either way they are delicious!
Black and White… Cookies
When I was growing up I remember always having these cake-y cookies whenever we had extended family get togethers. Usually they were held at my grandparents house on the North Shore and one of the family would pick up Black and Whites from a Jewish deli/bakery near Boston. I didn’t know they were called Black and White Cookies until after college and that they aren’t a Jewish thing but a New York staple!
BB Treats
This treat is a combo of two of my favorite desserts I have created over the years. My Cecelia named them BB Treats- Blondies and Brownies together. They are decadent and truly addicting! The only hard part about making them is waiting for them to cool while they make the whole house smell so good.
Forbidden Brownies
These brownies should be illegal because not only are they fudgy, chocolatey, but also vegan top ten (yes you heard that right!) allergen free.
Chocolate Dream Donuts
It has come to my attention that I had a great variety of tasty baked donuts but I was missing one of the best ones around- chocolate! With my Cecelia being the chocoholic, that she is, this was a huge misstep for me.
Chocolate Pudding Pie
My Cecelia is a chocoholic it seems. She loves everything she can get her hands on, as long as it’s nut free, that’s chocolate. Since the holiday season started she has also become a really big pie fan. So what do you do when you have a chocolate fan who loves pie? You make her the best chocolate pudding pie you can!
Easy peasy vegan pumpkin donuts
Pumpkin is the flavor of the month of November in my opinion so everything that I bake probably has pumpkin in it!
This super easy recipe is gluten free, vegan, and top eight allergen free. But don’t that fool you because it’s delicious.
Super Simple Pumpkin Muffins
November is here and it’s officially feeling like pumpkin weather! Yes, I may have taken a little longer to jump on the pumpkin spice bandwagon this year but seriously there were so many fabulous apple desserts I needed to get through first before I could happily move onto the next big flavor.
Gluten Free in Newport
This past Columbus Day/Indigenous weekend he participated and completed his first marathon and I couldn’t be more proud of him! But now that we got all the running talk out of the way, let’s jump to all the delicious foods we ate.
Gluten Free Chocolate WACKY Cake
A great way to make a vegan cake is a Wacky Cake or Depression cake. It’s a cake that has no eggs, milk or butter but tastes yummy! But as we know the more items you take out of any dessert the less it stays together.
Cake Flop to Cake Pop!
Ever make a cake that just isn’t right? It’s a bit dry. It’s shaped funny. It refused to come out of the pan! Well there’s a solution…
Undercover Quinoa Review
We recently discovered a new delicious snack while attending the Nourished Festival. Not only it is chocolate but it has a great crunch and is healthy too!
Summertime and it’s time for Strawberry Donuts!
With summer right around the corner what better way to celebrate than fresh fruit donuts?
Tollhouse meets it’s Match!
When I think of home baked cookies the first thing that comes to mind are warm and delicious chocolate chip cookies.
Product Review: SmashMallow Crispy Treats and my own version
I found Smash Mallow by accident while in the health food section of the grocery store.
The Top 5 of my favorite quick grab snacks
If your life is anything like mine it is always go, go, go! And with life going faster than the speed of sound remembering to eat isn’t always on the top of the priority list.
The Ultimate Blondie FAIL...
Found a great recipe with only one cup flour and only one egg! It sounded delicious and was super quick and easy to make. With multiple ingredient swap I decided to go from squares to muffins. This was the beginning of where things went wrong.
