Chooooocolate Snickerdoodles. Oh yeah that’s right, Chocolate Snickerdoodles. Who woulda thought that was a thing? Well, now we know! Years ago, yikes, years, cough…I happened to drop by a friend’s place just after she had finished baking up some cookies, her favorites she said. Kindly, she gave me one or two, I ate them, and […]
Choooooocoate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream. That’s right, that is what I said: Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream. Holy cow is this stuff un-freaking-believable too. I mean sure, Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream, blah blah sounds like a familiar flavor you’ve surely had before, no big deal, what’s the scoop (ahhh ha, ice cream pun, hahaha), […]
Choooocolate pudding, ah yes. I have loved chocolate pudding since, gosh, probably since I was one minute old. Ok yeah, no, my mom did not feed me chocolate pudding as an infant. Or, not that I’m aware. Although if she had, she’d have deserved Mom of the Year title. Well, she does anyway so […]
Ahhh, Hot Fudge Pudding Cake. Man. Look, I know, this is not an earth-shattering brand new recipe by any means. Heck, my mom made this for us for as long as I can remember and that’s a mighty long time. You can find just as many versions of this online as you can, well, people. […]
As a kid, my mom didn’t buy us loads of sugary things. Which is fine, for sure, obviously. (Grown up perspective…) And quite honestly, I don’t remember incessantly pestering her for all things sugar either. Mmm, I mean, I did request but I’m sure I wasn’t a twit about it. Nope was acceptable and I […]
My mom made the best cheesecake. EVER. She didn’t make it often, but whenever she did it was my absolutely favorite—a rich, dense, creamy slice with cherry pie filling dripping over its edges. HEAVEN, I tell you, and the dessert highlight of my childhood. When Steve and I got married, the cake HAD to be […]
Growing up, birthday cakes were always a big deal in our house. Or they were to me. Because baking, heh. Well ok that and eating the baking. In my stubborn world view, a birthday is not a birthday, a birthday is not complete unless there’s cake involved. Cake. Has to be cake. Have to have […]
Yay! ’Tis the season of summer! Yay finally!! So excited for summer, I can barely stand it. Warm weather and windows open and coat-free and million layer-free and picnics and potlucks and get-togethers and block parties and all sorts of summer fun! Or, just hanging out at home doing nothing summer fun! Either […]
Lately these days I’m finding I have less and less and less time in a day. I mean c’mon, where the heck does it all go?! I swear, one minute I’m groggily trying to drag my night owl rear end up for the day and the next I’m back in bed for the night wondering […]
Ah. Chewy brownies. Yes, chewy brownies! Now, no offense here, I know this is a controversial, delicate topic. “Hey babe, we’re outta dessert-like items. What can I interest you in?” From the couch I hear a loungy day-off grunt, “Brownies.” “Ok, brownies it is.” So beganeth an hour+ of recipe seeking. Did you know brownies […]
