Chocolate and Salted Caramel Cookies with Dark Chocolate Drizzle

GREETINGS FROM TEXAS, YA’LL! I don’t think I’ve mentioned this yet, but my boyfriend and I moved to Austin at the end of October. While I will miss my family and friends in Wisconsin, I can’t wait to explore the city and, most importantly, break in my new kitchen!! In the meantime though, I’m excitedContinue reading “Chocolate and Salted Caramel Cookies with Dark Chocolate Drizzle”

Double Chocolate Brownies with Cinnamon

While you can never go wrong with a simple brownie, I’m not sure I’ll ever make just a “simple” brownie again after eating these double chocolate brownies with cinnamon. These brownies are adapted from a Sally’s Baking Addiction recipe and have real chocolate and cocoa powder in the batter and chocolate chunks. Plus, they’re toppedContinue reading “Double Chocolate Brownies with Cinnamon”

Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies

If you didn’t know, snickerdoodle cookies are one of my favorite types of cookies and they’re actually the first cookie I ever baked all on my own. Like all cookies, snickerdoodles come in all shapes and sizes, but I like mine soft, chewy and big. And since it’s now officially fall, I thought why notContinue reading “Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies”

Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cookies

Calling all my gluten free peeps! I’ve grown up eating these peanut butter cookies, and I’m so glad I was able to easily make them gluten free without losing any of the flavor or textural elements I love so much about these cookies!

Maple Ginger Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting and Blueberry Compote

I turned 30 on July 31 and finally got around to making myself a birthday cake (Mostly so I could use my new cake stand!!). Rather than going the traditional “birthday cake” route, I decided to bake a cake using this maple sugar I recently purchased from a vendor at my local farmers market! ThisContinue reading “Maple Ginger Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting and Blueberry Compote”

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cake Balls

And my love for baking with cereal continues. But this time, we’re making cake balls! This was my first time making cake balls (which are basically just cake pops without the popsicle sticks), so I adapted my recipe from this Sally’s Baking Addiction recipe. I just swapped some of the flour for ground Cinnamon ToastContinue reading “Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cake Balls”

If you’re looking for the perfect summer cake, this is it! The fresh blueberries work perfectly with the hint of cardamom in the cake as well as the fig jam topping.

I could eat cream cheese frosting on just about anything, but the creaminess and tanginess goes especiallyContinue reading “Blueberry Cardamom Cake with Fig Jam and Cream Cheese Frosting”
