September means the start of pie season. I guess you could have pie anytime you want, but don't you normally eat a bunch of pie in the fall/holiday months? I love a good pumpkin pie (the marshmallow pumpkin pie I made last year is AMAZING) and pecan pie also has a special place in my… Continue reading Brownie Pie

Valentine’s Brownie Truffles
I don't usually make Valentine's treats, but when I do, I go all out. I wanted to make something nice and sweet for my coworkers after a long week of weather coverage last week. It's nice to have a treat every once in a while--and they don't last long around the newsroom. These brownie truffles… Continue reading Valentine’s Brownie Truffles
Black Forest Cookies
One of my favorite types of cake is a black forest cake. It's a luscious chocolate cake with a rich cherry filling and it's absolutely sublime. Anytime I'm at a bakery and I spot a black forest cake I'll ask for a slice. It's the king of cakes, in my opinion. Imagine my surprise when… Continue reading Black Forest Cookies

I've got a few Christmas Eve snack night recipes to share, along with some more dessert recipes that are sure to hit the spot.… Continue reading Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzels
Thin Mint Cups
One of my favorite things to do over the holidays is to make treats and candies for my neighbors and friends. I've been experimenting in the kitchen with different treats this year and have unfortunately made rather small batches of each, but I'm hoping I can knock out a bunch next weekend. One of the… Continue reading Thin Mint Cups
Peanut Butter Balls
One of my favorite things to make around the holidays is simple candies. These are things where you don't need a candy thermometer. I'm talking about recipes that are simply dipping something in melted chocolate and waiting for it to harden again. I've been experimenting with these chocolate delights over the last several weeks and… Continue reading Peanut Butter Balls
Pumpkin Spice Magic Bars
I'm shocked by the amount of people who have never heard of magic bars before. When I was doing research on this recipe, I kept seeing comments on other magic bar recipes saying stuff like, "I think an ingredient is missing. Don't you need flour so it's not so liquidy?" Here's a helpful hint for… Continue reading Pumpkin Spice Magic Bars
Strawberry Chocolate Chip Protein Pancake Bites
I've never been a person who liked sweet breakfast foods. Cereal, waffles, pancakes, French toast--- all of those things are sub-standard to me. I will gladly choose a breakfast burrito or bacon and eggs above a plate of pancakes anyday. I make sweet breakfasts for my husband all the time. He enjoys eating oatmeal before… Continue reading Strawberry Chocolate Chip Protein Pancake Bites
Chocolate Peanut Butter Buckeye Bars
My husband is a huge fan of peanut butter. He'll eat it on just about anything: graham crackers, chocolate, or simply by the spoonful. That's why I try to make a peanut-butter inspired treat for him every now and then. I've made chocolate peanute butter cookies, peanut butter blossoms, and even a cake-style Buckeye bar.… Continue reading Chocolate Peanut Butter Buckeye Bars
Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Crackers
It's the holiday baking, candy-making and treat-giving season! I've been busy this weekend whipping up a bunch of Christmas treats (and Chex Mix) for family and friends. I can't take the treats to work like usually do every year since I'm work from home, but I'm still able to give some out to people. As… Continue reading Chocolate Covered Peanut Butter Crackers
