My family was thrilled when this year’s Great New Year’s Baking Show brought back the greatest the GBBO tent has ever seen: Jürgen. We watched the two holiday episodes this holiday season, and appreciated getting to see Jürgen back in the tent, and even performing his trombone. And then when they were done I convinced…
Speculoos Milk Bar Pie
Well well well… After a (personal) record-breaking 78 posts in 2024, I’ve taken a whole week to post in 2025! But fear not, I aim to keep posting just as much in this new year. My goal for last year was to post 52 times (once a week), which I managed to surpass considerably. And…
Orange Chocolate Ice Cream
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.

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…
Hot Chocolate Cookies
In my sophomore year of high school, I decided to really embrace my brother’s advice about high school, which was: none of it matters! Me following that advice took a lot of forms over the last three years of high school, and I have plenty of stories about it. The only update I would give…
Puppy Chow (White Chocolate Chex Mix) Cookies
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…
