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 clichĂ© 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…

This post is all about chewy vegan gingerbread cookies My family’s Christmas Traditions: When I was a kid it was a family tradition to make gingerbread houses every year.

Deep Dish Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan+GF)
So um, If I ever stop coming up with variations of a chocolate chip cookie you’ll know my body’s been inhabited by aliens or something. Hey, I can’t help it, there’re just so many ways you can recreate this classic treat. That, and I really just love taking photos of them. What can I say? They’re very aesthetic. Okay why would you do a deep dish cookie you might be wondering? Seriously though, is anyone actually wondering that? Hello melty pools of chocolate that can acceptably be eaten with a spoon, double the thick and chewy texture and gooey center, and then there’s always the option to throw some ice cream on top!…

Double Chocolate Chip Hazelnut Cookies (Vegan+GF)
I’m trying to keep in mind that each day of this continued isolation brings us one day closer to it being over. It helps a little, but gyms are still closed along with everything else. On the bright side I’ve been hiking and making time for lots of things I wouldn’t usually do. Also, I think I might be spending even more time in the kitchen than usual if that’s even possible. If anything can help brighten the mood these days, it’s baking anything with chocolate. Cookies being probably the best choice in my personal opinion. Please tell me you love chocolate hazelnut butter as much as I do because these cookies…

Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Candy Bars (Vegan+GF)
One of my favorite quotes, and the most applicable to my life, is “Necessity is the mother of invention” – Plato I’ve lived in some pretty remote areas where ingredients weren’t available like they are in a city or large town like I live in now. In other words, I had to come up with substitute ingredients for almost everything I wanted to make. While it wasn’t always fun or easy, it definitely expanded my thinking and led me to come up with some great ideas. One of the better ones being these bars. I remembered them recently while talking with family. That’s when I realized that they had to be something I…

Sea Salt & Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan)

Like “Let’s pack it up guys my work’s done here.” But seriously, these are gonna be a popular addition to my chocolate chip cookie recipe collection. If you haven’t noticed I’ve created a few. Lol.🍪🍪🍪🍪 This is one if f those times where I had a random idea that I just needed to make as soon as possible. You know, like those great ideas you get in the middle of the night or in the shower. Well, this was one of those. Besides, sea salt and tahini just sound so good…

Healthier Oatmeal Cream Pies (Vegan+GF)
So were you a fan of Little Debbie’s famous cream pies as a kid? I liked them but I could never figure out how I really felt about them because they were obviously not healthy at all. On the other hand though, you sort of felt like they should be because they were oatmeal, you know? That’s pretty much what this recipe is doing. I mean, they could be a lot worse but I’ll be honest and admit they’re not exactly the “healthiest” choice. They’re just a healthier alternative. I just figured that if I was going to share a fresh treat this January it should at least pretend to be healthy, right?…
