My favorite cereal as a kid was the hazelnut chocolate biscotti granola from Target (that has tragically been discontinued, but Molly found a very good dupe recipe for it). But in terms of mainstream cereals, that were only purchased on special occasions, then Reese’s Puffs were the best. Then Peanut Butter Captain Crunch. But regardless,…
Reese’s Puffs Ice Cream
There’s an ice cream shop in town near me that runs a very exclusive business. Every Thursday night, they do a “drop,” where a couple hundred pints of ice cream in 1-3 flavors go on sale, and usually sell out in minutes. You pick from their list of pickup window time slots to pick up…
Chocolate Root Beer Float Cookies
Long-time readers of this blog (my family), may remember these Root Beer Float Cupcakes of 2013. They were memorable for a few reasons: my first time baking with root beer extract and finding out how good the combination was, and a big breakthrough moment of getting the photos accepted to the site Foodgawker (which was…
Brown Butter Rye Scones
I’m still working on that start of the year goal of using up all the mostly-used ingredients in my pantry. I went through a rye phase a few months ago, but stopped before I used up all the rye flour in my pantry. So a cup of flour was still sitting in its own bag….
Peanut Butter Maple Brownies

Extra Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Every few years (sometimes it feels like every year), a new “Greatest Ever Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe!” is introduced. For a while, it was the NYT Chocolate Chip Cookie. Which, yes, is very good. Now, it appears to be the Jacques Torres chocolate chip cookie. Frankly, they’re all probably great. I’m not sure what we’re…
Bodacious Milk Chocolate Brownies
I said it in a previous post, but part of the start of the year routine this year meant cleaning out and organizing my pantry. The holidays always brings an influx of sweets and ingredients, and they inevitably always last well beyond December. So, these brownies served two start-of-the-year purposes: to use up all the…
Peppermint and Chocolate Candy
When I was a kid, I got a book for a birthday or Christmas called 365 Things to Make and Do. And while I only made or did a few of the 365 things, this book lives pretty “rent free” in my head, as the kids say. Most of the crafts and activities were not…
