Raspberry Chocolate Chip Crunchy PB&J Bars (Vegan+GF)
Peanut Butter Jelly Time! Peanut Butter Jelly! Peanut Butter Jelly Time…… Are you guys as happy it’s the weekend as I am? At least tell me you’re ready for something super killer deliciously awesome because this one just couldn’t wait for a weekday. Definitely a weekend treat. I’m also excited that it’s Valentine’s Day this weekend because I’ve been loving the pink theme on my Instagram. It’s a bit of a cliché holiday, I know, but I like to have fun with it. So, going along with the theme I had the inspiration for these cookie bars with raspberry jelly and peanut butter and chocolate. PB&J is maybe not the most romantic of…

Fudgy Sweet Potato “Nutella” Brownies (V+GF)
Is there a more perfect treat than brownies? I don’t think so. Of course, I’m super indecisive so if I had to choose between brownies and, say, chocolate chip cookies or ice cream, I’d probably fail. So I made homemade nutella recently and omg, yum! When you’re a recipe creator though, sometimes you end up with a lot of extras from testing and that’s what happened here. In these cases my philosophy is always to make lemonade out of lemons. Also, I’m contemplating how I have ever lived without a blender. I mean, obviously brownies aren’t the most essential thing to life (Haha, depending on who you ask 😉 ). It’s just, I think…

Chocolate & Coconut Pumpkin Brownies
It’s been a while since I shared a brownie recipe hasn’t it? Well, it’s time to change that for sure. I was scrolling through some of my really old recipes the other day and realizing that I’ve never made a completely vegan brownie. I’ve tried tons of variations but I don’t think I’ve ever taken on the challenge of creating a good one before. For these I used some pumpkin for texture and to help keep them on the healthier side of things. I know, you’re probably like “How could you defile a perfectly good browine with veggies!” :O Honestly though, these might surprise you by how good they are without a ton…

Strawberries+Cream Fudge Brownie Trifle (Vegan)
Happy weekend my peeps, and it couldn’t have come at a better time I think. Any fun plans? My schedule will probably involve lots of packing and planning for San Diego. It wasn’t part of the original trip plans but it looks like I’ll be in Cali for Valentine’s Day this year. Ironically I was in London for this past Halloween so maybe I’m starting a bit of a self-trend to be abroad during holidays. Hey, that’s totally fine with me for any holiday with the possible exception of Christmas (because you guys know I’m a Christmas freak and I couldn’t imagine not being home for the holidays) I’ll gladly take traveling…

Chewy Almond Flour Fudge Brownies (Vegan+GF)
Okay, wow I feel like we need some major recap time guys. It’s been forever since we had a chat and even longer since that chatting involved chocolate. I know, no chocolate? The world might as well have ended, right? So I mentioned being sick in one of my recent posts and that was very true but what I didn’t realize at the time of writing that post, was that I would end up getting sicker the next day and what’s more, end up feeling really-not-great for over one full week! Even as I’m writing this I’m fighting not to be distracted by some of the annoying leftover symptoms that just won’t seem…

Sea Salt & Olive Oil Dark Chocolate Brownies (Vegan+GF)
Yeah…….okay I did put olive oil in your brownies. Can we still be friends? And wait just a second before you completely write me off as insane please, they’re actually really good! Seriously, no one could ever tell there is olive oil in them if you don’t tell. They’ve got it all; that rich fudgy texture, a perfect amount of sweetness, and that bittersweet balance with them being extra dark. Oh, and don’t let me forget the sea salt on top, that’s the magic touch that takes them to a whole other level of delish! However if salty/sweet isn’t really your thing then feel free to cut back or even skip it if…
