Golden Vanilla Cake + Chocolate Buttercream Frosting (Vegan)
Firstly, someone drank my entire cup of coffee, like what???? Secondly, please do not ask me who’s birthday it is/was. Seriously, you’d think my family would have figured out by now that I sometimes get the random urge to make an unnecessarily large, lovely, and delicious cake for absolutely no good reason at all. Yes, well apparently they haven’t because I think I got asked why I was making this cake about two dozen times by various people the day that I was working on it. So I actually did have a good reason to make it though, I felt it was a huge gap missing from my recipe list. I realized the other day that…

Chocolate “Nutella” Orange Cream Cake (Vegan)
Have you noticed that I seem to rotate back and forth between savory and sweet moods. I realized this week that it had unintentionally become the norm for me to lean towards sweets more often than not. At least, that’s how it was for a while and it was especially that way during the Holidays. Then for some reason I’ve been in more of a savory mood so far this year. It’s probably all the talk about a fresh new year and starting out healthy. I don’t know. Whatever the case, I’ve definitely had an easier time coming up with ideas for salty snacks and fun new dinners than I’ve had dreaming up new treats…

Almond Nog Vanilla Bean Streusel Muffins (Vegan)
Hey again! How did your weekend go? I hope it was merry, bright, and filled with fresh memories that you’ll want to keep forever! I know that for a small few of you (the scrooges and grinches of the world) today might feel like a relief, but the rest of us this is sort of the saddest day of the year. Then add on top of that the fact that it’s also Monday again and I just think we all could use a muffin this morning, agreed? Okay, I should probably take back my accusation about you being a grinch if your relieved because I’m honestly feeling just a little bit of that now that…

Ghostly Mocha Mint Chocolate Chip Cupcakes (Vegan)
Uh huh, yep, it’s that time of year again……. Isn’t it crazy how this year is flying by? Recently things have been really busy for me and so many things have changed in the last few months, while other things are the same as ever. I guess that’s the beauty of time. So in talking about this time of year, when we first moved to Chile we were living in a pretty remote area so there weren’t any neighbors or houses around us for us to see what goes on for the 31st and we just assumed that halloween wasn’t even recognized here. Then we moved to a more urban area and so last…

White Chocolate Chai Spiced Banana Bread (Vegan)
I wish there was a way to send and share smells through the internet, don’t you? Well, since unfortunately there isn’t you’ll just have to do your best to imagine the smell of a banana bread filled with all the goodness of chai spices! Can you imagine it? Hey, or better yet, you’ll just have to go make it right now! Yeah, okay that’s definitely the best plan, but just a sec…… Before I talk more about the recipe and how easy it is I should probably have a moment of catch up for any of you following along, because even though I just shared a recipe on Wednesday, I actually haven’t written…

Meringue Frosted Butterbeer Baked Doughnuts (Vegan)
Hey, hey, hey you guys! I’ve got another nerdy one for you today! I’m pretty excited to share this one, not gonna lie. Okay, first things first; This recipe! Before I say anything I’m giving you full warning that I’m kinda, sorta…..a really big Harry Potter nerd! (Deal with it.) Hey, I can’t help that one of the situational hazards of being born in the 90’s was the HP craze, (It’s the fandom that chooses the fan. It’s not always clear why.) Did I take that too far? Feel free to throw your head back and roll your eyes at me here. Anyway, these are so much fun to make and they’re really not too…
