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…

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…

Chunky Monkey Caramelized Banana Split Sundaes (Vegan+GF)
I’ve never made banana splits before you guys, isn’t that ridiculous? We were watching a movie recently and, I don’t even remember which one it was now, but there was a scene in an old-fashioned diner. You know, classic Americana, 1950’s, juke boxes, poodle skirts…. you get the picture. In the scene they brought out this big and beautiful banana split and none of us could help wanting to dive into the screen at that point. I realized immediately that a banana split was lacking in my repertoire of recipes and I knew that I had to fix this major problem as soon as possible. I didn’t want to make just any banana splits…

Creamy Vegan Mushroom & Broccoli Gnocchi (Gluten Free)
Looking for a comfort food dinner? This Creamy Vegan Broccoli and Mushroom Gnocchi is a simple and delicious meal that just might become your family’s new favorite. This post is all about Creamy Vegan Broccoli and Mushroom Gnocchi How have the first few days of your year been so far? Have you been staying on top of those New Year’s resolutions? You know, because I definitely have (shifts eyes downward guiltily)………..yeah definitely. So okay, maybe I’ve already rearranged some of my originally listed things that sounded like such a good idea a week ago and traded them with some more realistic goals, but I guess that’s better than nothing right? I won’t…

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…

“Egg”nog Latte (Vegan Starbucks Copycat)
Because what better way to start the week, right? And especially this time of year. I mean, it’s December, everything’s getting all Christmasy, and Baby, it’s cold outside. I know I’m in the mood for lattes! What about you? Ha, as if! Okay I admit it, I’ve slowly been becoming a coffee addict over the past year(ish) and now I think there is a distinct possibility that I’ll end up being one of those people who can’t function without it someday. This is something that would probably bother me more, depress me even, if I wasn’t currently buzzed on the Joe. Instead I’m rationalizing that I’d never want to exist in a world…

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…
