So it's the last week of Summer (if you subscribe to the belief that after Labor Day, it just seems wrong to head to the beach). Yup, leave it to me to wait until the last second to decide to do something sensible like make the season's most appropriate dessert: Ice cream!
Rich, fudgy and outrageously chocolatey, these butterscotch brownies are so EASY to make and so addicting! Fall is probably my favorite season. It may have something to do with my birthday, or with the month long celebration of anything chocolate, but whatever the reason I'm enjoying every second of it!
Simple but elegant, this silky chocolate ganache coconut tart with a flaky, tender almond crust will be the center of attention to any special occasion. There's absolutely no secret I love rich, smooth chocolate ganache and have been using it to fill a couple of tarts and have lost times how many time I ate it with the spoon straight from the bowl.
Rich chocolate cake stuffed with a gooey marshmallow filling, these homemade ding dongs are just as good or even better than the store-bought ones. My husband loves Ding Dong cakes. Every now and then he used to come home with some and enjoyed them over a cup of coffee.
These delicious Blueberry Muffins have a crunchy Pecan Streusel Topping. This cake-like muffin recipe is perfect for breakfast with a cup of steaming coffee! When Zack was an infant, he couldn't get enough blueberries. I would give him a serving and he would gobble them up and ask for more.
I don't get out much - I'm a working mom and travel quite a bit for work. Which means the "being an adult and doing happy hour outside of my house" isn't a routine occurrence. But I finally got a shot at having a night out in honor of my friend's birthday.

All througout elementary school, I was in the Girl Scouts but for some reason I can't really understand, my parents almost never bought Girl Scout cookies. When they did, I always begged for Samoas. They are, by far, my absolute favorite. Now that I live in Germany, if I want Samoas, I have to make them myself.
Apple Pie Cannoli - Crispy Cannoli Shells filled with a decadent Apple Pie Ricotta Cream. Hello Monday! Haven't seen yo' face in 7 days! Welcome and be good to us, m'kay? Don't ask for deadlines and give us plenty of time to enjoy a pot of coffee. Thank you. Greetings, friends!
