Cookies and Cream Cheesecake Brownie Bars (Vegan)
Yup, you read that right, Cookies and Cream Cheesecake Brownie Bars. These are sandwich cookies, cheesecake bars, and brownies all wrapped into one. This post is all about Vegan Cookies and Cream Cheesecake Brownie Bars How is your life going? Good? Not so good? Well, I hope it’s the former but I’m pretty confidant that either way it’s about to get better. I know, in the past I’ve knocked Oreos and I still haven’t changed my mind about Trader Joe’s brand being better. I just can’t get over the memory of feeling like I was eating burnt cardboard with frosting in the center. Also, they aren’t exactly health food so I figure if…

Vegan Sweet Potato Ginger Carrot Soup & Cinnamon Toasties (Gluten Free)
This post is all about Vegan Sweet Potato Ginger Carrot Soup A Soup That is So Healthy It works so well, actually, that this soup is border line addictive, and you’ll probably feel guilty like you’re overindulging . The good news is that, for once, this is a recipe that you can feel good about going back in for seconds on because it’s full of pure nutrition. A Note on the Color of This Soup I just remembered that my soup was not as orange as it should have been because I used a white variety of sweet potato so all the orange is coming from the carrots in the pics. If you’re wanting…

Swirly Brown Sugar Cinnamon Roll Cookies (Vegan)
Is there anything better than a big doughy cinnamon roll? It’s hard to say, but at the moment I’m failing to think of anything. The problem with cinnamon rolls is that they require a bit of planning ahead and sometimes you just haven’t done that when a craving hits. Like those moments when you just have to have a cinnamon roll immediately or you may die. Does that happen to you too? Well, you see, that’s what I’m here for, to solve these urgent problems in life. Does that mean that I plan to save the world one cookie at a time? Maybe it does. Don’t judge. It’s a perfectly good plan, even if…

Chai Latte Doughnut with Vanilla Bean Icing (Vegan)
It’s finally Friday again, Yes! I hope you are in the mood for some doughnuts (or is it donuts? what’s the difference?)! Ha! I say that like it’s possible to not be in the mood for a doughnut. What a ridiculous notion. The weather has been pretty cool and rainy recently and I’ve been on a tea kick. Chai tea. The entire first year we have lived here in Chile I was never able to find chai at the stores (sad face). I know it can be made at home but I’m the only one in my family who likes to drink it and I hate making things specifically for me so I’ve…

Fluffy Whole Wheat Eggnog Pancakes with Homemade Eggnog
Get ready for some good news…..we’re having “eggnog” pancakes! Okay, so I had some leftover nog the other day this idea just came to me, “What better way to use them during the holidays than making some delicious pancakes? It’s all over now. I don’t know that we will ever be able to go back to regular pancakes. My family loved these so much that I wouldn’t be surprised if they blackmail me into making nog in June just so that I can make these. They were that good. I’ve already made them twice this week and you know that I don’t do that very often because I’m always trying something new. I…

Perfect Crinkle Snickerdoodle Cookies (Vegan)
I can’t really imagine what the holidays would be like without baking at least one batch of cookies. There are so many possibilities too. I mean, you’ve got the classic, and basically synonymous with Christmas, gingerbread men. Then there are your basic sugar cookies or shortbread. In my family chocolate chip cookies usually make their way into every holiday treat line-up. Oh, and we almost always make these little snowball cookies that I think everyone is familiar with. With all the variety, it’s not surprising that there are some cookies that aren’t as commonly made in some homes and for us that was always snickerdoodles. In fact, I hardly remember my family ever making…
