Brown Sugar Caramel Pear Crisp
Posted on February 19, 2016
Warm caramel pear crisp topped with a crisp oatmeal topping is perfect the cold late winter days. Every February I get that feeling that Spring isn’t too far away. And while in some parts of the states that is probably true, here in the Northeast we don’t get real spring weather until close to May.…
Brown Sugar Chai Spiced Caramel Fondue
Posted on November 20, 2015
A chai spiced caramel sauce perfect for holiday entertaining. I’m very enthusiastically jumping onto the chai bandwagon! There’s no looking back now. (In fact, can we take a quick moment to drool over Christina’s chewy chai bars?) In all serious, though, there’s no reason you shouldn’t be joining me. The flavors of chai are so…
Vegan Apple Cake
Posted on September 9, 2015
A healthier spin on the classic apple dessert, this cake does not disappoint. No mixer needed for this apple cake! I’m pretty lucky that any photos of this cake exist. I baked it one morning while L was napping and then was setting up my shoot that afternoon while he decided that an afternoon nap…
Chewy Milk Chocolate Ginger Cookies
Posted on November 20, 2014
Chewy ginger-flavored brown sugar cookies filled with milk chocolate chunks. This is a great holiday cookie! I have a bit of a weakness for ginger cookies. My dad loves gingersnaps, but unless they are super crunchy (ahem, teeth-breakingly so), he will probably tell you they are underbaked. I, on the other hand, like crunchy, chewy,…

Served warm, this skillet apple crisp is just what you need to fill you up at the end of a cool Fall day! This apple crisp is warm and hearty and perfect for the end of a chilly day (or in my case, mid-morning on a hot day in mid-August…). You can make it in…
Giant Caramel Apple Cinnamon Bun with Cream Cheese Glaze
Posted on September 10, 2014
This giant cinnamon roll is oozing with a gooey caramel apple and topped with a perfect cream cheese glaze. I think Matt put it perfectly when he said, “You know how when you eat a cinnamon roll and the middle is the best part? This is like getting almost only the middle!” Seriously, though. I’ve…

Looking for a new way to use up your extra cranberries? Cranberries get an upgrade in these brown butter cookies that are loaded with rich dark chocolate chunks.

With a buttery crust, thick apple pie filling and crispy crumb topping these Apple Pie Crumble Bars are a fall dessert that is hard to resist. I don’t know if you remember my Apple Cinnamon Blondies from last year, but they were one of my favorite fall treats. They were a part of Rachel’s An…
Winter Fruit Crisp {Gluten-free}
Posted on January 7, 2013
I made this fruit crisp so long ago, I had to hunt through piles and piles of notes and butter-stained papers to find it. Well, I guess Thanksgiving wasn’t that long ago, but right now it feels like a lifetime. Fruit crisps are one of my favorite desserts. I mean, anything that is served warm…
