While I was living at home (before I moved back to Minnesota), I worked at a farm-to-table restaurant. My official title was Dairy Barista, a title as perfect for me as if I had chosen it myself. The restaurant was attached to a dairy farm, so they specialized in all things dairy, including the BEST…
Pumpkin Whoopie Pies with Whipped Cinnamon Filling
I first made these pumpkin whoopie pies five years ago (!!). I was a sophomore in college at the time, and my friends and I went through two batches in less than three weeks. That’s saying something, when you consider that a) I almost never re-bake things and b) we had access to a full…
Inside-Out Pumpkin Cheesecake Cupcakes
In the last few years, fall has become so super-saturated with pumpkin that it feels like it’s impossible to do anything new with it anymore. Pumpkin coffee? Done. Pumpkin cookies? Done. Pumpkin cupcakes? Done. Pumpkin chapstick? Probably done, but probably not too tasty. But we keep wanting more…more and more and more, so much more…
Apple Butter Cheesecake Bars
Apple butter is a perfect fall flavor that I think is just so overlooked. We’re so inundated with pumpkin and squash and cinnamon and stuff that apple butter gets forgotten. Poor little apple butter. The quietly brilliant spread that just doesn’t get the attention or acknowledgement it deserves. Well I am here to give attention…
Milk Bar Apple Pie Babycakes
NOTE: This is a tandem post; Molly’s commentary is left-aligned, Audrey’s is right-aligned and italicized. Happy Holidays! We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving, filled with food and family and football (or if you’re anything like me, fires in the fireplace and a book in your lap, with football on in the background)….
Pumpkin Biscoff Cupcakes
It’s astounding that it’s already November and we only have one pumpkin post to show for ourselves. Quite frankly, I’m a little disappointed in us. This recipe for Pumpkin Biscoff Cupcakes is a first step in rectifying that egregious lapse in pumpkin coverage. Confession: I am one of those Pumpkin People. You know…
Apple Butter Bread with Cinnamon Glaze
This Apple Butter Bread is moist, tender, and full of autumnal spiced flavor. Topped with a cinnamon glaze, one bite will sweep you away in the coziness of fall. So I was a pretty weird kid. (Yes, in general, but I am talking specifically food-wise here.) That might be surprising to some, seeing as now…
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…
