Today is a happy day. The weather is warm, there’s a light drizzle of rain, a cat in my lap, and funfetti cupcakes in my kitchen. I’m not even sure if there is a direct history to funfetti cupcakes, but here’s my theory. “Long ago, in a far off land, where sweet goodies were rare…
Single Serve Cookie Pie
It’s a hard thing: trying to share chocolate chip cookies. But do you want to know what’s even harder? Having enough dough left from nibbling to get at least one cookie in the oven. Whenever I make large batches of chocolate chip cookies I can never seem to get the bowl away from grabby hands….
No Bake Peanut Butter Pie
When life decides to give you lemons, some people have sour attitudes (you see what I did there?), some make lemonade, and some throw them back. and run to their kitchens so they can eat their peanut butter pie. Some, meaning me. I must say, this pie was created right at the brink of a chaotic meltdown….
Vegan Pumpkin Spice Cake
So I was browsing the internet around midnight last night and was reading a post about a pumpkin cake. Do you know what the first sentence said? ‘pumpkin desserts are popular among the fall AND WINTER months’ Notice I emphasized AND WINTER so you would understand that I’m actually not late with fall recipes, just spreading…
Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes
I do realize it’s now December and that Christmas recipes are supposed to overflow from my kitchen, but I still have pumpkin recipes to share with you. Don’t worry, the Christmas recipes are coming for sure, but for now I need to squeeze in a couple late fall recipes.
Peanut Butter Cups
I made Reese’s Cups of my own. All mine, no one could eat them. Except when my friend Lauren came over with her mom and we all stuffed our faces with these little candies. I found it ironic that the night before I made these my dad bought one of those jumbo size bags of…
Apple Pie Cupcakes
My lovely cat, Zeba, is currently in my lap walking in circles and purring louder than a generator. She’s even jumped on my laptop a couple of times and tried to eat my headphones. I set her on the floor so I could blog and now she’s curled up on the floor, watching me with…
Coconut Frappuccinos
As a high school student, caffeine is definitely something I normally consume. And when I had my first frappuccino at 12 years old, I was hooked. Starbucks never fails to impress me with it’s seasonal flavors of wonderful drinks. During the spring it’s their mocha coconut frappes, summer time I have mocha cookie crumble frappes,…
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Truffles
This post feels very dramatic and important at the moment. I have a “Carol of The Bells” cover by Pentatonix playing on my laptop and let me tell you: This post could be the most important post of my existence. Just kidding, but the music sets the mood for something awesome. Christmas music in August…
Rocky Road Fudge
I could describe how exhausted I am from this week and how it took my brother’s friend coming over to get me in my room and actually open my laptop……………or I could tell you how delicious this fudge is. Your choice. Fine. I’ll start with the fudge and then move into my week. That way…
