I was a little nervous about this week’s recipe. A few weeks ago Matt posted an interview with one of the recipe developers he and Renato work with for their cookbooks, and she specifically name checked these cookies as the most difficult recipe she has developed for them. Uh oh. It turns out they weren’t......
It’s so much fun to hang out with other food bloggers: they just get it. These are the people who understand the importance of two new flavours of Oreos. Who hate salad in a bag as much as I do. They know the feeling of making a co-worker’s eyes glaze over after you’ve been talking......
Bale Bars. Otherwise known as: No-Bake White Chocolate Caramel Peanut Butter Pretzel Bars. That’s a lot going on for this simple looking bar. They’re incredibly sweet, and I have to admit I’m not sold. I feel like they would be a better combined with something else; maybe layered on top of brownies (like these), or......
I showed an amazing amount of restraint by not bringing any treats into the office for the whole month. I was a little baked out after the holidays, plus people usually aren’t that excited to see baked goods when they’re on their January detox/cleanse/whatever. All that came to an end this week when I brought......
It’s hard enough to return to work post-holiday vacation bliss, but do we really need a POLAR VORTEX to make things more difficult? It was -40 here yesterday, which makes it just a little bit harder to deal with life, especially under 526 layers of clothes (tights, long janes, yoga pants, hoodie, puffy coat, scarf,......
Every year I host a little Christmas party for my friends, where we eat cookies, drink champagne, and toast the holidays. It’s selfish really; in years past I used to make up cookie packages and deliver them around to everyone, whereas now, everyone comes to me! This little soiree is always BYOT, where the T......
After another brief six-month hiatus, I’m BACK on Baked Sunday Mornings! And I picked the perfect recipe to join back in on! A super simple, no bake, sugar explosion called Good Morning Sunshine Bars. These bars are just Chex cereal (Side note: I was convinced this was an American cereal that I wouldn’t be able to......
I have seriously been waiting to make this cake for an entire year. On Thanksgiving it’s a toss up between making Fall-themed desserts, or concocting a ridiculous birthday cake for myself. Last year, I kind of combined the two with this Caramel Apple Cake, but that meant putting this beast on the back burner. I......
My friend Nicole came over for a belated birthday dinner a few weeks ago, and I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to further develop my ice cream skillz. I’m still learning about how it all works, and it looks like eggs are the wild card. All the recipes I’ve seen in the past......
Last week one of my new friends from work threw a rager to kick off the long weekend right! Ha, not really a rager but it was a super fun night. Obviously I had to bring treats to dazzle everyone, and also to make sure I would be invited to any and all future parties.......
