Sweet indulgences to satisfy any craving, tested desserts that are as fun to bake as they are to share.
Last summer we were visiting my in-laws and my mother-in-law made Caramel Stuffed Apple Cookies three nights in a row because the kids kept asking for them. I must have watched her make them four times before I figured out her little secret, she chills every filled cookie before baking instead of waiting to see…
Last fall we were visiting my in-laws. My mother-in-law made Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies three afternoons in a row because the kids kept asking for them. I watched her make them four times before I figured out her little secret. She freezes the cream cheese centers before wrapping them in dough. That one cold step keeps…
I haven’t shared many banana based cookie recipes on this blog, but these banana pudding cookies had to make the list. They taste like the familiar chilled dessert in a soft bakery-style cookie. The dough uses instant banana cream pudding mix for steady flavor. And the vanilla wafer pieces add the crumbly finish people expect….
When you’re greedy like me and want proper banana flavour in every bite, not just a faint whiff of “vaguely tastes like banana …. maybe? ”, making a Banana Cream Pie suddenly becomes harder than it sounds. A few slices tucked under plain pudding won’t do it. I want banana through the whole slice, from…
This is the kind of thing I wish I’d learned sooner. The first time I made it was for Thanksgiving 2020, when we couldn’t travel, and I overbaked it by almost 10 minutes. It was still the best part of dessert somehow. That’s when I realized Banana Cake is way more forgiving than most people…
When you’re greedy like me and want proper buttery flavor in every bite, not just a faint whiff of “vaguely tastes like vanilla …. maybe? ”, making festive Christmas Cookies suddenly becomes harder than it sounds. I really thought it would be simple: roll out my favorite sugar cookie dough, cut it into shapes, and…
These chocolate chip cookies are thick, dense, and absolutely packed with rich cocoa and heavy chocolate chunks. Just pile them up on a cooling rack and you’re good to go! Honestly, it’s like meeting your new best friend. You get a rich, incredibly fudgy cookie with those perfect cracked tops that make any day better….
You guys! When my mom tasted this recipe, she said…” I think that’s one of the best things you’ve ever done”! I have to say, it’s one of my top five favorites! A Saturday afternoon experiment turned into the best Halloween Cookies ever! They have the same texture as a bakery-style shortbread and peanut butter…
I honestly havent really shared many cookie based recipes on my blog, but this Oatmeal Cookies recipe was one I had to share. This recipe is inspired by classic home baking and it’s simple to whip up. It’s a super tasty treat packed full of hearty oats and it’s quite satisfying. If you love sweet…
Nothing hits the spot quite like a classic milkshake on a warm afternoon. It is the ultimate nostalgic treat and it takes me right back to the old-school diner counters of my childhood. But a lot of people struggle to get that perfect texture at home. It either turns out too thick to drink or…
Last winter we were visiting my in-laws and my mother-in-law made this dessert three nights in a row because the kids kept asking for it. I must have watched her make it four times before I figured out her little secret, she whisks hot coffee into the cocoa batter right at the end instead of…
When you’re greedy like me and want proper pumpkin flavour in every bite, not just a faint whiff of “vaguely tastes like spice …. maybe? ”, making a Pumpkin Pie suddenly becomes harder than it sounds. I really thought it would be simple: mix pumpkin puree into my favourite custard batter, pour it in, and…
