Brownie Filled Chocolate Chip Cookie Meringue Tart
I’m saying hey from the past to some my favorite people on planet earth! That’s you, my awesome readers! I hope you’re having a good Friday. Actually I wish it was Friday right now, but unfortunately…..it’s not. So obviously life gets crazy pretty often and as a blogger you can’t always leave things to chance or rely on the hope that somehow you’ll just have enough time to get everything done. That’s why it’s usually a good practice to be on top of things by having a little backlog of future posts as a buffer in case of emergencies. On the flip side, you can’t really write too far ahead without seeming detached and…

Cream Cheese Cut-Out Sugar Cookies
So tell me, how was your weekend? I hope it was the best, first weekend of December ever!!! And now I say it’s only fitting to make this the best, first Monday of December by baking up a storm of Christmas cookies. You with me???? Okay, so this past week I was in the mood to decorate some Christmas cookies but I realized I don’t have a basic cut-out sugar cookie recipe on the blog and I was like “What!?!?” That’s unacceptable in my book, what an outrage. Of course, I think everyone has plenty of the very basic types of recipes for them so I thought I’d do a little variation and…

Brown Butter Caramel Snickers Cookie Bars (Vegan)
Hey, Hey, HEY! I’ve got something to help you guys get over the mid-week slump so obviously that means chocolate is involved! Oh, and guess what? We got new puppies last weekend! I want to share some pics later this week so I was going to wait to tell you, but I just couldn’t. They are absolutely adorables you guys! You may remember me mentioning a while back when we got our first two Great Pyrenees pups. No? Well, if not then now you know and I guess it has been a long time now.

Almond Joy Pudding Parfaits & Coconut Sable Cookie Dippers
Can I spend just a second to discuss how much I love food that’s layered in pretty little jars and glasses? It’s just way more fun. Something about a bunch of yummy ingredients with contrasting flavors and textures coming together in one dish is way more exciting than if you were to eat each thing separately. Although, if you were one of those kids that got freaked out about your peas touching your mashed potatoes than you may disagree with me on this. As much as I hate to say it, I don’t think we can work out as friends because there’s simply no way I’m backing down on my position here. Jar…

Cookies and Cream Chocolate Pop-Tarts
You know those childhood cartoons where the characters have a goody-goody angel voice and the naughty, not-so-angelic, one fighting on their shoulders? What, didn’t you ever watch Tom and Jerry growing up? Well, I’d love to tell you that my metaphorical inner angel voice won out this time guys, but………then there were these pop-tarts and um……………yeah. In brainstorming over this idea I’d considered just making my pop-tarts inspired by milk’s favorite cookies, but I kind of didn’t want to just stop there. I also felt like there should be some actual sandwich cookies going into these at the same time. So basically, these are an oreo version of a pop-tart since you’ve got…

Dreamy Soft Coconut Meltaway Cookies (Vegan)
Have I told you lately…………….that I love you?………………..?? Just kidding. Well, I actually do love you guys for being so awesome, but what I was going to say was ‘have I told you how much I love coconut?’ I’m discovering that pretty much anything and everything is better with coconut water/milk/cream/oil. Clearly I’m becoming obsessed here but did you know there is even such a thing as coconut sugar? The more I use it the more I wonder why we don’t ditch dairy all together when we’ve got coconuts around. Of course, then a mixture of thoughts come to mind including ice skates, Wilson volley balls, and my own experiences in hacking away at one…
