No-Bake Cookie Dough Oreo Cheesecakes
Posted on February 17, 2014
Individual no-bake cheesecakes full of edible cookie dough chunks and sitting on top of a cookie dough Oreo crust I don’t have a lot of pictures for you today (this dessert was not photogenic, but it was tasty!) and I am having major writer’s block. I’ll just blame the winter, it seems to be the…

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day with someone you love and lots of chocolate. My night was spent at home in PJ pants (the best) with homemade pizza and ice cream. It doesn’t get much better than that (and no, I’m not 7 years old). This week was busy since I had…

Posted on February 10, 2014
Fudgy brownie bites full of mini chocolate chips and topped with a pretty in pink marshmallow buttercream, perfect for Valentine’s Day! This weekend completely flew by!

Posted on February 8, 2014
Turns out I missed another weekly update because I was busy in Boston visiting my sister and friends. We were pretty much up there for 36 hours but it was still so much fun. I’m basically counting down the days until my sister moves back in with me back to NYC! This week was hectic…
Meyer Lemon Sprinkle Cookies
Posted on February 3, 2014
These Meyer Lemon Sprinkle Cookies are the ray of sunshine you need in the middle of winter.

I’m going to fast forward past the winter-hating rant that you could probably spew out yourself and…

Salted Caramel Chocolate Fudge Cookies
Posted on January 27, 2014
These giant cookies are fudgy and chewy in the center but perfectly crisp around the edges. The salted caramel enhances the flavor to create a well-balanced treat. When I originally came up with the recipe for these cookies, I thought I might end up with a chocolate cookie that came out of the oven with…

Posted on January 25, 2014
I didn’t mean to miss last week’s post but we were in San Francisco and the hotel internet was excruciatingly slow. The short trip was so much fun, though. We ate our way through the city (and Napa), plus I got to see my cute cousin, Haley! Well, she is my cousin’s daughter so technically…
Salted Caramel Oreo Bars
Posted on January 23, 2014
These sweet and salty dessert bars are packed with an Oreo crust, chocolate, pretzels and salted caramel. You won’t believe how easy these are to make. Of all the salted caramel recipes I’ve made, these are by far the most dangerous. The first time I made them, Matt joked about how ugly they were and…
