Last month, I made some root beer float cookies, and I reopened the can of worms that is root beer baking. Root beer and chocolate are just such a good flavor combination… And what do I have root beer extract in my pantry for if not to use it?? So, I had to make some…
Marzipan Chocolate Cookies
Over the years, I have made a few baked goods that pay homage to the Knusperflakes Ritter Sport flavor. Cookies and brownies mainly. But I realized recently that I have not given the same treatment to my other favorite Ritter Sport flavor: Marzipan! I may have to rank Marzipan above Knusperflakes in terms of favorite…
Matcha Strawberry Coffee Cake
This Matcha Strawberry Coffee Cake came from a video I saw of Justine Snacks making a matcha coffee cake that looked and sounded very good. She kept it traditional with cinnamon filling, but I felt a little bit of strawberry would be a nice addition! Putting matcha in coffee cake seemed pretty ingenious. I think…
Cow Cake
This will shock no one, but I don’t really like Starbucks. The coffee is very standard, unless you get one of their fancy drinks. But those fancy drinks all have approximately 3x the amount of daily recommended sugar, which I don’t want in my morning drink! On the few occasions I go into a Starbucks…
Chocolate Coffee Toffee Cookies (Levain-Inspired)
Once again, I received an ad for some Levain Chocolate Coffee Toffee Cookies that I could not get in Minneapolis, and was not going to pay to ship them to my house. So what is a girl to do? Bake her own. It’s really quite simple. Levain really knows how to do a solid seasonal…
Weeknight Moroccan Chicken with Orzo
Introducing… *drum roll*… For the first time ever… The Batter Thickens has a guest chef… the third sibling: Ethan! My brother didn’t write this post, but he made the food and has given me lots of quotes to include, so you can hear about it directly from the chef! It may not look like fine…
Peanut Butter Milk Bar Pie (Happy Pi Day!)
My first memories of pi day are, unfortunately, not great. It was one of the many times during my childhood education where learning the concept of something did not exactly pan out in practice. It’s up there with the time I was told we’d be doing an experiment where we “make clouds” inside of 2-liter…
Homemade Bagels
These bagels, like many things on this blog, are directly inspired by a GBBO episode. My mom and I were watching an episode from the 2020 season, and they made rainbow bagels. While I saw no reason to go through the rigamarole of dyeing bagel dough five different colors… I wanted to try making homemade…
