Mint Chocolate Chip Avocado Mousse Cups (Vegan+GF)
Ok, so I’m officially sick of being sick this year. This past week I caught a case of the flu, on my birthday actually, so yeah that was wonderful. I’d planned to share this recipe a little sooner so that it would be live in time for you guys to make it for St Patrick’s Day, but as you can see I’m a little late. But hey, who says you can’t do mint chocolate flavored treats all year long? So if you’re a little skeptical about how a combination like this could work and not be gross, no worries, I was right there with you until the first time I tried avocado mousse…

Easy Vanilla Cream Custard Berry Tarts (Vegan)
It’s Pi Day tomorrow, so naturally there has to be pie right? Right. Glad we’re all on the same page here. So based on our local weather forecast, I’m thinking we’re done with snow around here. A month ago I might have been sad to see Winter go because I’ve missed having a white Winter season for so many years, but in case you haven’t noticed, I’m basically over Winter and totally ready for Spring. Yes, mid-March is the perfect time for Spring to truly arrive. This is such a random thing to notice unless you’re me, but when I got in the car yesterday and the seat was warmed from the sun…

Raspberry Lemon Cream Shortbread Cookie Trifles (Vegan)
Sophie came running through the house the other day nearly screaming in excitement “Our cat had a kitten! Our cat had a KITTEN!” At 8-years-old we’ve all learned that it’s not uncommon for her to be a mistaken on matters like this so I wasn’t sure whether or not to take her seriously. How many times has she nearly been eaten alive by a spider that turned out to be a dust bunny? As it turns out though, our young cat actually did have a kitten and she’s been hiding it very well. Do you remember me telling you when we thought she was pregnant? Well, she went from being fat to looking…

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…

Banana Pudding & Homemade Vanilla Wafer Cookies (Vegan)
I think this is very possibly going to require you to go and dig out your fat pants and maybe even practice your pudding dance. Just a thought…… I’m kind of hoping that you’re all just here for the food though, because I honestly don’t have a lot of words today. That’s a common thing that happens to me when I’m sharing something as classic as this dessert is. Banana pudding pretty much speaks for itself, don’t you think? I mean, it would be like introducing you to someone who you’re already good friends with to tell you much about it. Like really, what is there to say about banana pudding that hasn’t already…

Classic Boston Cream Pie (Vegan)
This is the only recipe for Boston cream pie that you will ever need my friends!!! Ladies and gentlemen, you are looking at the very first Boston cream pie made by me. That’s right, I’ve never made one. In fact, I don’t know that I’ve ever eaten one either. Go on, take a nice long gander at it, don’t be shy. Isn’t it a beautiful thing? I think it’s a beautiful thing if I do say so myself. Hey, I don’t get credit for how pretty smooth chocolate ganache looks all on its own. I’m just one in the crowd marveling at it with you. I only post recipes after they have been…

Easy Mini Chocolate Chip Cookie Crumble Trifles (Vegan)
Hey guys! Guess what? Today is National Chocolate Pudding Day! So my family is somewhat obsessed with chocolate chip cookies. I think they would be completely happy if I made them everyday but how boring would that be? It’s pretty hilarious because I am always wanting to try some new flavor or recipe and everyone just wants to eat chocolate chip cookies. This is where we have a problem. I mean, I think chocolate chip cookies are great and I’m sure you do too but I can’t exactly post the recipe everyday and I just don’t have the time to make a bunch of different recipes everyday either. Trying to make everyone happy…
