My friend Jen lived in Switzerland for about three years, and when she moved home in 2021, I felt inspired to welcome her back with a Double Double Cake. A Double Double is a fairly iconic drink at Tim Horton’s (it means a hot coffee with 2x cream and 2x sugar) and a classic Canadian......

I had a little Galentine’s Day gathering last weekend, and there was one thing I knew right away I wanted to make: Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cupcakes! These were on my Valentine’s baking list last year, but I made the Strawberry Nutella Swirl Cupcakes instead. Good thing I STILL have multiple packs of freeze-dried strawberries lying......

Does this here ol’ blog really need another S’mores recipe? Over the years I think I’ve made every format of S’mores treat on the internet: cupcakes, cookies, squares, pudding, pie and probably more. Alas, I keep seeing these squares on Pinch of Yum and wanted to make them for Kristine’s and my pool day on......

I’ve been lusting after these cookies ever since Sally posted them last summer. I just needed a good excuse to make them, and that came in the form of my friend Jen’s birthday party this month. She loves chocolate and peanut butter so I knew they’d be perfect. I’ve tried a few recipes like this......

There are two recipes with freeze-dried strawberries that I’ve had on my radar for years and have always wanted to try. Weirdly, I see freeze-dried fruit everywhere in the states (Target & Trader Joe’s) but have never come across it here. Heather and I did a little cross-border shopping this month, and I picked up......

First off, this is a terrible picture. It is not doing justice to the absolute decadence and deliciousness within. I’m blogging it anyway because it was SO GOOD, and I brought it to my last in person gathering before Omicron descended on our lives and the rest of all my Friendsmas plans were cancelled (sad......

This is just a quick post to remind myself that this Double Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is perfect. These cookies are thick, chewy, deeply chocolate-y and excellent for a variety of additions. I vividly remember being let down by the last double chocolate chip cookie recipe I tried last summer, because I included it in......

For the second year in a row, I wasn’t feeling like making a cake for my birthday. I’ve been obsessed with New Pie Co. for a while, so I decided to try to reverse engineer one of their pies that I was drooling over on Instagram for a while. I’m not sure if the name......

It’s been a minute since I baked anything new out of my Baked cookbooks, so I thought it would be fun to do a Baked Sunday Mornings post! This recipe is from Baked Explorations and the group made it all the way back in 2012 (who knows what I was up to or why I......

My friend Sarah ordered an Ultimate S’mores Cake for her sister back in June, and I thought this would be the perfect time to document My Favourite Chocolate Buttercream, which is a key component of that cake. [This is the long overdue companion to My Favourite Chocolate Cake that I posted a year ago!]. For......
