Cinnamon Roll Blondies

I had the idea for these cinnamon roll blondies recently, but they were such a good idea that I had to check and see whether I had had the idea before. It turns out, I had! But, I made them in my brother’s kitchen during my freshman year of college and didn’t have the best…

The Baked Brownie

These back-to-basics brownies mean business. Rich, decadent, fudgy, and everything a brownie should be. The simplicity of this recipe gives chocolate the chance to shine, so make sure you’re using the good stuff. If you remember earlier this year, we posted about cutting sugar out of our diets. It’s been wonderful. I feel less lethargic,…

Fudgy Avocado Brownies + Wrestling With Creativity

My last post to this blog was in June of 2016. My second most recent post was published almost a year before that, in July 2015. I think it’s safe to say I’ve been struggling creatively. With motivation, with finding time (–scratch that, making time), with sitting down and just doing the work. It’s a lot…

Red Velvet Oreo Cookie Brownie Bars

So I want you to go out now and buy red velvet Oreos. They are amazing. I’ve always been skeptical of gimmicky, limited edition Oreos, especially with flavors like Red Velvet. But I went ahead and bought them. And wow. I quickly became obsessed. So I tried them, and had to stop myself from devouring…

Banana Chocolate Swirl Blondies

So these Banana Chocolate Swirl Blondies were sort of an accident/experiment, and they turned out better than I expected. I made some “banana fudge cookies” that were supposed to be healthy – they were just almond butter, banana, and cocoa powder- and they were delicious. But not super satisfying as a dessert, you know? Like,…

Strawberry Cheesecake Crumb Bars

Happy summer everyone! I’m in high school, so I still follow a school-year schedule, and as of yesterday, I am officially on summer break! It’s lovely. The end of the year always gets so busy as people realize that you need to finish everything up (hello, teacher who assigned us a book to read with a…

Chocolate Chip Cookies N’ Cream Brownies

So, it’s been a week or four since my last post. Whoops! Thank goodness Audrey has been picking up my slack with tantalizing treats like Kit Kat Brownies and Popcorn Crust Brownie Pie that make me wish I’d never left home. I kid. Mostly. The truth is, it’s been a whirlwind few weeks since I moved back…

Kit Kat Brownies With PB Cookie Frosting

I always forget about KitKats. They are amazing and like easily one of the best candy bars out there, but for some reason they are always foreshadowed in my mind by Reese’s or Twix or bars with more pizazz. But I thought of them the other day and kinds just thought, “What if I put…
