I made these Brown Butter Blueberry Cupcakes to welcome my dad home from his latest trip, that lasted two weeks, so in order to do so, I started brainstorming all his favorite flavors- blueberry, cinnamon, etc. They turned out great. I think there should be a whole flavor genre dedicated to flavors like cinnamon, brown sugar,…
Mounds Bar Brownies
Box brownies layered with a sweet coconut filling and the best ever chocolate buttercream make up these Mounds Bar Brownies. So simple to make, but so delicious! A perfect dessert for summer barbecues or class parties. We went to a family friend’s house the other night, and, as usual, I was commissioned to prepare a dessert to…
Carrot Cake Pancakes with Cream Cheese Spread
Carrot Cake Pancakes are topped with a tangy, sweet cream cheese spread in place of syrup. A fun way to eat carrot cake with cream cheese frosting for breakfast and call it reasonable. We’ve all had pancakes, (unless you have a pancake allergy, in which case I am sympathetic, and my empathy makes me want…
PB&J Ice Cream Sandwiches
Peanut Butter and Jelly Ice Cream Sandwiches are a PB&J sandwich transformed into a dessert. Two salty-sweet peanut butter cookies are sandwiched around fresh strawberry ice cream for the ultimate summer treat. With every bite, you’ll be transported back to a time when summers were full of endless free time and PB&Js were a daily…
Chocolate Gingerbread Cupcakes With Mascarpone Frosting
Chocolate Gingerbread Cupcakes with a tangy mascarpone frosting are a festive dessert for the holidays. Gingerbread cookies can be crunchy and dry, but these Chocolate Gingerbread Cupcakes are moist, soft, and flavorful.

Chocolate Crinkle Candy Cane Kiss Cookies
Chocolate Crinkle Candy Cane Kiss Cookies are a fun, festive treat. Chocolate cookies are rolled in powdered sugar and topped with a Hersey’s peppermint kiss. I think these have got to be the most festive-looking cookies I have ever baked. Just get a load of that cheerfully crinkled chocolate! Those bright red peppermint…
Nutella Peanut Butter Banana Bread
Use up your mushy, over-ripe bananas by baking them with peanut butter and swirling it all with Nutella to make Nutella Peanut Butter Banana Bread. It’s sweet, peanut buttery, chocolatey, and full of banana flavor – aka the ideal breakfast. So I think we all have had the experience of having too many bananas in…
Biscoff Pumpkin Bread
A moist loaf of pumpkin bread is swirled with Biscoff cookie butter and sprinkled with mini chocolate chips on top. Biscoff Pumpkin Bread is full of spiced autumnal flavor, and such a cozy thing to enjoy on a fall or early winter morning. I’m clearly not over Pumpkin Season yet. I think this song sums up our…
Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
This post comes to you two weeks delayed. Originally, I was disappointed with how the pictures of these Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls turned out, so I decided not to post about them. But yesterday when I was scanning back through them, I liked them better than I did initially. (Do you find this ever happens…
