Chocolate Glazed Cream Filled Doughnuts
Do you have any idea how many puns can be made about doughnuts? There are at yeast more than you can overlook or glaze over. You probably doughnut even want to know! Ha, sorry but did I mention how for some reason my peeps have been in a punny mood recently? Especially Liv, I think she’s about to drive everyone crazy with the way she’s been cranking them out. On a side note, I really need to just confess to you guys that I was looking at my recent recipes the other day and I realized that there’s been a serious lack of healthy-er/ish recipes going on. If you could see my face…

Tahini Cashew Nutter Butter Sandwich Cookies
Please tell me you’re as nuts about nuts as I am because otherwise I just can’t see out relationship working out. Speaking of nuts, I feel like I’ve been going a tiny bit crazy and I’m trying to remember how I survived the last few winters without turning into an icicle. It’s only just starting to get cold and I feel as if my mind has totally dumped all instincts for self-preservation to stay warm and I can’t remember how to weather the cold. It’s pretty ridiculous too, because where I live now in Patagonia is so mild compared to where I lived in the mountains of northern Idaho for a few years…

Simple Strawberry Peach Galette
Anyone feeling in a Springtime mood today? So do you guys have plans for gifts and/or activities for the mothers in your life or is Mother’s Day not really on your radar? I know my mom and I know how she loves anything in the fruity pastry category so this was something I sort of made for her with Mother’s Day in mind. Of course, the family had no problem helping her finish it off though. I seriously think she ate about half of this thing over many days. Who doesn’t love a galette? What I love about galettes is that they look all fancy and labor intensive when in reality…

Spiced Chocolate Chili Java Chip Fudge Cookies (Vegan)
And here we are on another Friday and if you’re anything like me you’re wondering what happened to your week, or planning what to do over the weekend…… and possibly craving some major amounts of chocolate. Fear not, I’ve got that part covered! I’m really excited to tell you about these deep dark chocolate cookies that I’m sharing today! They are not only filled with the wonderful magic of spice and chocolate together, but I also made some homemade java chips which are basically a mocha version of chocolate chips and they are really simple. The recipe makes more java chips than you’ll use for one batch of these but I figured you…

Churro Chips & Salted Hot Chocolate Sauce (Vegan)
I know I say this a lot so it’s probably losing its credibility…..but guys, these are Dangerous with a capital D! I decided that I needed to christen my new deep fryer (Tuck) with something delicious, but also simple so that I could keep it a no-fail situation for my first time using it. Plus, you may have noticed already, but I’m really getting into Cinco de Mayo as a theme to go with this year and churros with hot chocolate are just a well known classic Mexican food that I wanted to do something with. I feel liked I missed my Valentine’s Day opportunities for the most part and then I slacked big time…

Blueberry Filled Mini Pavlovas (Meringue Nests)
……and they’re just in time for Easter, are they not? This lovely little treat has been on the list of things that I want to try for way too long because, every time I’ve wanted to actually make it, I keep getting caught in the indecision of whether to make a huge one or to make it in minis. As you can see I finally stopped messing around and just did it, decided on the minis. I could have left it at calling these ‘meringues’ but the truth is that I kind of just wanted to say Pavlova. Try it, it’s so much fun to say; Pavlova, Pavlova, Pavlova! Of course I can’t say…

Chunky Dark Chocolate Coconut & Pistachio Brownies (Vegan+GF)
The pistachios are back! I feel like I’ve been repeating star ingredients a lot lately but pistachios are kind of new for me since we only recently found where we can buy them. Of course, they’re raw in shells so you have to crack them, and after going through the effort of shelling a bunch you feel like you should get the most out of your labor of love, you know what I mean? By the way, happy (almost) March you guys! Wow, is the year breezing by or what? I can’t believe it’s already almost time for the seasons to start changing again. Actually, our constant chilly rain the last few days is making me…
