Layers of Berry Oreo cookies and strawberry cheesecake make this easy, no bake cake completely irresistible! It is the perfect picnic cake or "just because you feel like it" cake. Give this Berry Oreo Icebox Cake a try the next time it is too hot to bake.
With Mother's Day just around the corner, I thought I'd share something special to make for mom. It's so much fun to whip up, she would probably enjoy making it with you! Some of my fondest memories are being in the kitchen with my mother, just hanging out and cooking, enjoying carefree, casual, ordinary moments together.
Peaches! It's August and...peaches! How can you possibly resist the aroma of ripe, juicy peaches? They're just begging to come home with you and get baked into a pie. OK, some also got made in cocktails. But for sure there needs to be pie.
The other day I picked up a mango on my way home. It was my afternoon snack with some Greek yogurt but I was so mesmerized by how juicy and perfectly sweet it was that I new I needed more mangoes immediately. Fruit and Greek yogurt snacking made me think of my favorite Greek yogurt quick bread recipe.
Salted Caramel. It's one of the current food trends that I hope never goes away. I love it a little bit too much. The weird thing is, when I think of regular old plain caramel I immediately think it's too rich for me, too sweet, too heavy.
Clafouti...if you've never had it before, there isn't really hint as to what it tastes like from the name. Clafouti is traditionally made with cherries, and is a country dessert from France. To me and my friend, it tastes sort of like bread pudding.
4 months since the last post on this... 4 (or a little less) months since life has taken a full turn, and everything I knew to be normal changed. No.. there's no death, there's no life-threatening illnesses that happened. Just a lot of drama, a lot of confusion, and a lot of re-thinking of life.
There's still time for cookies, my friends. Let's make some Florentines today! Of course, there are a zillion different kinds of cookies that are pretty darned enjoyable, but Florentines are one of my favorites. They are a thin and crispy cookie with a lacy texture (that's why they're often called Lace Cookies) and they have a sweet toffee-like flavor.
I have wanted to share this recipe with you for quite some time, but it makes sense it's finally happening now that we're in the cold of winter. When it's 20 degrees outside, that means it's a baking day, obviously. Haha.
I made you guys some cheesecake. Oh, kidding. I made myself some cheesecake, but karma's stupid and decided that I wouldn't be having any of it. Bummer. I mean, I did have a bit of it.
