I’ve definitely talked about this before, but I think the most underrated flavor combination is chocolate orange. I simply cannot get enough of it. And I’ll eat it in any form: bars, brownies, cake, cookies… and now ice cream! And especially in the world of Christmas flavors, I think it does not get enough attention. Chocolate…
Homemade Lebkuchen
It’s funny to put “Homemade” in the title of this post, as if anything on this blog wasn’t going to be. But the qualifier feels necessary here, because Lebkuchen is something that I never think of as homemade! Lebkuchen around the holidays is a family tradition, and in the past we’ve gotten it from Germany….
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…
Smash Orange Shortbread
Last year, I made some brown butter cookies using Orange Daim bars that I found at IKEA. My mom declared them some of the best cookies she’s ever had. I couldn’t find those same orange Daim bars this year, but I knew I had to make something chocolate orange again, in an effort to make…

We have some family friends who we saw multiple times a year growing up, and we would always get together with around the holidays. And they would always give us puppy chow. It was something we all looked forward to when we saw them, and we would enjoy having it in a bag on our…
Mexican Wedding Cakes
Happy December 1st! AKA the real start of Christmas! I usually try to bake one new kind of Christmas cookie every year, to keep things interesting. But I always have to make the classics. And I thought Molly and I had posted about our classics on this blog ages ago! But we seem to have…
Thanksgiving 2024: Butterscotch Apple Pie with Dutch Crumb
I know everyone has their own opinions on this, but I believe Thanksgiving is the best holiday. At least, the way my family does it. We go to Door County, Wisconsin and stay in a timeshare for a week. So right off the bat, the celebration is a week long. The Wifi is spotty, the…
